    SPEECH BY GAUTENG MEC FOR FINANCE, BARBARA CREECY, ON THE OCCASION OF THE 2016/17 BUDGET PRESENTATION, GAUTENG PROVINCIAL LEGISLATURE, 8 MARCH 2016 Madam Speaker and Deputy Speaker Premier David Makhura and fellow members of the Executive Council Chief Whip Member Brian Hlongwa Leaders of Political Parties Members of the Provincial Legislature MMCs of Finance Councillors Distinguished guests Comrades and Friends I am honoured to present to this esteemed House, the second budget of our Administration, under the leadership of Premier David Makhura. I want to start by wishing all women in this House and in our Province a very Happy International Women’s Day. Today is especially significant for South African women as it falls in the year of our 60th Anniversary of the Woman’s March to the Union Buildings. It is a day on which we can pause to pay tribute to great South African women: Charlotte Maxeke, Lillian Ngoyi, Helen Joseph, Albertina Sisulu, Sophie de Bruyn, Amina Cachalia, Bertha Gxowa, and Francis Baard. 1 These women set a powerful example of personal courage and fortitude in the face of adversity; they led with humility and selfness; they were unwavering in their principled commitment to non racialism, democracy and equality of all South Africans. We salute them! Their greatest victory was achieved 20 years ago, with the signing into law, of our Democratic Constitution. The Bill of Rights explicitly enshrines equality of all our citizens; requires the state to actively promote equality ,and outlaws discrimination by the state or individuals directly or indirectly against anyone on the basis of race, gender, sex, pregnancy, marital status, ethnic or social origin, colour, sexual orientation, age, disability, religion, conscience, belief, culture, language and birth.

  • South Africa Political Snapshot New ANC President Ramaphosa’S Mixed Hand Holds Promise for South Africa’S Future
    South Africa Political Snapshot New ANC President Ramaphosa’s mixed hand holds promise for South Africa’s future South Africa’s ruling party, the African National Congress, yesterday (20 December) concluded its 54th National Conference at which it elected a new leadership. South African Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa was announced the ANC’s new leader against a backdrop of fast-deteriorating investor confidence in the country. The new team will likely direct the ANC’s leadership of the country for the next five years and beyond. Mr Ramaphosa’s victory is not complete. The election results have been the closest they have been of any ANC leadership election in recent times. The results for the top six leaders of the ANC (Deputy President, National Chairperson, Secretary-General, Treasurer-General and Deputy Secretary-General) and the 80-member National Executive Committee (NEC - the highest decision-making body of the party between conferences) also represent a near 50-50 composition of the two main factions of the ANC. Jacob Zuma, Mr Ramaphosa’s predecessor, still retains the presidency of South Africa’s government (the next general election is still 18 months away). It enables Mr Zuma to state positions difficult for the new ANC leadership to find clawback on, and to leverage whatever is left of his expanded patronage network where it remains in place. A pointed reminder of this was delivered on the morning the ANC National Conference commenced, when President Zuma committed the government to provide free tertiary education for students from homes with combined incomes of below R600 000 – an commitment termed unaffordable by an expansive judicial investigation, designed to delay his removal from office and to paint him as a victim in the event it may be attempted.

  • THE NEW CABINET: ABLE to DELIVER OR the SAME OLD SAME OLD? by Theuns Eloff: Chair, FW De Klerk Foundation Board of Advisors
    THE NEW CABINET: ABLE TO DELIVER OR THE SAME OLD SAME OLD? By Theuns Eloff: Chair, FW de Klerk Foundation Board of Advisors The excitement and disappointment (in some quarters) regarding the appointment of President Cyril Ramaphosa’s Cabinet has settled. A number of articles have already been written about the Cabinet and its strong points, weak points, old members, and new recruits. The question remains: can the new Cabinet deliver on the President’s promises? It is essential to remember that the most fundamental change to the new Cabinet is the chairman. How President Ramaphosa will lead - and what he prioritises - will distinguish his Cabinet from that of its predecessor. In addition, what is new is the support he will have. It is now generally understood that the choice of Ministers and deputies was a product of intense behind-the-scenes negotiations with various stakeholders. In the end, of the 28 Ministers, only five are known-Zuma supporters (including Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma, who in the recent past has actually become supportive of the Ramaphosa cause). This implies that Ramaphosa has more than 80% of his Cabinet not in opposition to him or his plans. Even though the number of Deputy Ministers was inflated beyond initial plans, it is clear that at most, 12 of the 34 deputies were products of compromise with the Zuptoid faction. This gives Ramaphosa 75% support in the entire group and even more in the actual Cabinet of 28. That is a strong start, especially when one considers the potency of various factions and stakeholders in the ANC alliance.

  • Ramaphosa Unveils Cabinet and Cracks the Whip on Ministers
    SAFE HANDS ENTRUSTED WITH THE ECONOMY Ramaphosa unveils cabinet and cracks the whip on ministers An emboldened President Cyril Ramaphosa stamped his new-found authority on the government late Wednesday evening, trimming the Cabinet by eight ministerial posts and flexing his muscles by leaving out in the cold some of the most controversial individuals. Ramaphosa retained the reluctant but trusted Tito Mboweni as Minister of Finance, whilst placing Ebrahim Patel in charge of a combined ‘super economic portfolio’ which includes Trade and Industry as well as Economic Development. In spite of a blatant attempt by the Public Protector to rule Pravin Gordhan out of contention for Cabinet by hastily issuing a report which founded Gordhan guilty of violating the Executive Ethics Code, Ramaphosa evidently considered Advocate Busisiwe Mkhwebane’s own credibility in proceeding to reappoint Gordhan to the critical Public Enterprises post. The extractive industry’s darling, former mineworkers’ union boss Gwede Mantashe, was charged with responsibility for If we are to make effective progress in Energy, now combined with his previous Mineral Resources building the South Africa that we all portfolio. want, it is important that we deploy into In what has been widely welcomed as a deft reconfiguration positions of responsibility people who are of Government, Ramaphosa amalgamated several ministries committed, capable and hard-working, and axed the likes of ANC Women’s League President and who have integrity.

  • Inauguration of National Food Crisis Forum To
    24 May 2020 Press Release: Inauguration of National Food Crisis Forum To: Mr Cyril Ramaphosa, President, Republic of South Africa Ms Lindiwe Zulu, Minister of Social Development Mr Zweli Mkhize, Minister of Health Dr Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma, Minister of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs Ms Barbara Creecy, Minister of Forestry, Fisheries and Environmental Affairs Ms Lindiwe Sisulu, Minister of Human Settlements, Water and Sanitation On Friday, 22 May, the National Food Crisis Forum (NFCF) was inaugurated by the South African Food Sovereignty Campaign and the Cooperative and Policy Alternative Center (COPAC), a vibrant alliance partner of the SAFSC and which is currently coordinating its response to Covid-19. The NFCF was established to build a partnership with government and the Solidarity Fund to address the food crisis in the country. Both government and the Solidarity Fund have not done enough to address the worsening food crisis. The food crisis is not new (about 14 million went to bed hungry before Covid-19) and has been worsening during Covid-19 lock down. With about 30 million South Africans in food stress the country needs a multi-pronged approach that is about immediate relief but also about linking in structural elements of the food sovereignty system that already exists but which is not recognised by government and the Solidarity Fund. Hence the NFCF will engage government on the need to support community led relief schemes that are ‘invisible’; unlock the food commons (community gardening, small scale farmers, subsistence fishers and informal traders) where many South African’s source their food from; support food production through food sovereignty pathway building in communities, villages, towns and cities; challenge supermarkets on pricing issues and their role in the national food crisis; and advance the call for a substantive basic income grant.
