Officials went through Adams’ ICT Service Desk history for the period in question and found no reported persistent malfunction, hardware failure or repeated freezing. Neither could Parliament find records supporting Adams’ claim that the laptop repeatedly went in for repairs. Parliament stressed that it was not expressing an opinion on whether Adams’ broader evidence before the Madlanga Commission was truthful.
