Communications and Digital Technologies Minister Solly Malatsi says the funding of what he calls “dual illumination” of TV signals poses a serious threat to meeting the deadline for
Malatsi previously said there may be a digital and analogue process happening concurrently after the deadline.Malatsi says in this current financial year there is no allocation available from the National Treasury. He says Sentech and the Universal Service and Access Agency of South Africa have not made more funding available.
“One of the big dilemmas that we face is covering the costs of dual illumination because where we are right now, there is no financial provision for this to happen.

Sentech has already indicated that it is under financial strain to be able to continue with covering this.
