The move follows a preliminary investigation by Ernst & Young into tender irregularities which discovered various concerns regarding the contract held by Smit Amandla Marine between 1999 and 2012, says FIS website.
The investigation began in April, when the contract with Smit Amandla Marine ended and the navy took over the running of SA's patrol vessels while managing coastguard duties.
