The shutting down of e-tolls in Joburg has already missed a deadline.
Civil action group Outa says there is something fishy about the quoted e-toll debt - and it wants clarity.
E-toll opponents have won - but now billions of rands need to come from somewhere to pay off the system's debt, and there are no easy answers.
Over 30 civil society organisations have written to parliament calling for the immediate reconsideration of the Electoral Amendment Bill that is placed in front of Parliament this Thursday (20 October).
Civil action group, Outa says that Eskom's application to energy regulator Nersa for a 32% price hike in 2023 will end up being closer to 38% once backlogs and court-ordered increases are taken into account.
The Organisation Undoing Tax Abuse is concerned that government may tax you more to pay for what e-toll could not.
Transport minister Fikile Mbalula says the South African government will 'for sure' announce a solution to e-tolls in October, but that government is unlikely to rely on a controversial petrol price change to pay for the scheme.
Government should use the extended grace period for driving licences to arrange a long-term solution to the country's licence cards problem, says civil society group Outa.
There is cautious optimism that South Africa’s fiscal picture is improving after finance minister Enoch Godongwana delivered his maiden budget speech on Wednesday.
At least 383,000 pending licence cards have not been printed in South Africa due to a machinery breakdown in December.
