SA Tourism’s current CEO Nombulelo Guliwe remains on paid suspension as disciplinary proceedings continue against her for alleged involvement in irregular expenditure. She has been suspended since August last year. 

In a media briefing on January 27, Tourism Minister Patricia de Lille confirmed the appointments of a CFO and Chief Audit Executive. Corné Koch was appointed Chief Convention Bureau Officer at the South African National Convention Bureau in December.
