SA National Assembly is meeting this Tuesday to consider a raft of Money Bills

South Africa’s (SA) National Assembly is meeting this Tuesday to consider a raft of Money Bills, including the Special Appropriation Bill, the Adjustments Appropriation Bill, the Tax Administration Laws Amendment Bill and the Taxation Laws Amendment Bill.

 

The spotlight is firmly on the Special Appropriation Bill, which seeks to channel extra funds to the Department of Health. The proposed allocation is meant to plug a funding gap left by the withdrawal of international donor support for the health sector.

 

Members of Parliament are expected to debate the proposals and their wider implications, particularly for public spending and the continued delivery of critical health services.
