DA to table “economic recovery plan” in Parliament’s upcoming debate on SA’s unemployment crisis
14 August 2019
The DA welcomes the decision by the Speaker of the National Assembly (NA), Thandi Modise, to grant my request for an urgent debate of public importance on South Africa’s jobs crisis. The DA will use Parliament’s debate of national importance on the jobs crisis to table our “Economic Recovery Plan” – a comprehensive package of reform interventions that are unashamedly pro-growth, pro-investment, and pro-job creation.
This “Economic Recovery Plan” will include the following proposals, among others:
- Splitting Eskom into two separate entities while allowing IPPs to come on board by passing the ISMO Bill;
- Rejecting the National Health Insurance (NHI) Bill that threatens to collapse our health sector;
