After the protest‚ five civil society organisations released a statement warning that they might withdraw from SANAC. The organisations are the Treatment Action Campaign (TAC)‚ SECTION27‚ Legal Resources Centre (LRC)‚ Masithandane End-Hate Crimes Collective‚ and Rural Health Advocacy Project (RHAP).

In a statement‚ the organisations said SANAC faces a “crisis of governance and legitimacy”.

“In many cases‚ civil society participation at SANAC has been reduced to irrelevance‚ with the current SANAC civil society leadership unable and unwilling to criticise any weaknesses of service delivery‚” the organisations stated.
