MOST READ: Ahead of the address, key industries have voiced their concerns and desires. The liquor industry has come out strongly against reports that an alcohol ban could be on the cards.

Talks around Ramaphosa’s address began last week as the National Coronavirus Command Council wrapped up discussions about how best to handle the upcoming holiday season.

“I can confirm there are rumours.

“We strongly believe that if you want targeted interventions, which are going to discourage the excessive consumption of alcohol but still allow access, then you will achieve the same effect without having a complete ban,” Smithers said.Bishop Malusi Mpumlwana said the South African Council of Churches had been meeting weekly ahead of the Easter holidays to come up with a solid plan to propose to the government.

“Recently there was a meeting with the president and Cabinet with leaders of the religious faith. All of us said we would like an increase to half the square metres of the venue,” Mpumlwana said.
