Gauteng’s new Premier Panyaza Lesufi has emphasized the importance of a complete review and overhaul of the province’s public healthcare system, saying several of the tenders need to be done away with.He says that his priorities include efficient service delivery in healthcare, transport, water and electricity.

“My view is that we know people must eat in hospital every day. Why should we go out on tender on that when we can build internal capacity? My view is that we know hospitals must be cleaned.

“If we get the public health system right, there will be no need for people to go for private health because it becomes costly. If you check the issue of transport, it is the public transport that is reliable and dependent people will not have to stress about the price of fuel. If you check the issue of water and lights, if it is reliable and dependable, people don’t have to buy bottled water or generators.
