SARS Acting Commissioner Mark
Kingon
has set out to re-establish the large business unit to deliver services to large companies more efficiently and effectively. Hlengani Mathebula, chief officer for governance, is overseeing the process of building an experienced multidisciplinary team.

Mokola, chief enforcement officer, will oversee the relaunch of the illicit economy team. As illicit financial flows cost South Africa an estimated $122 billion from 2003 to 2012, tackling illicit trade is crucial for fighting corruption in the country.

acting
chief officer for a year, during which time he managed the finance division, including procurement and corporate real estate.
