BLSA calls for budget prioritisation amid fiscal constraints

In her weekly newsletter, Business Leadership South Africa (BLSA) CEO Busi Mavuso has called on Finance Minister Tito Mboweni to demonstrate that government is focused on the composition of spending; not just about restraining it, but spending it on the right things. The message delivered in the 2020 Budget Speech was clear: spending was far outpacing revenue, even before the Covid-19 crisis, and South Africa was not on the right path to turn that around, Mavuso pointed out on February 22.
