Trade, Industry and Competition Minister Parks Tau says the partnership between business and government has broadly been recognised as successful.
President Cyril Ramaphosa met with members of the Cabinet, senior business leaders, and technical experts from government and business at the Union Buildings in Pretoria. The aim of the collaboration was to address the country’s energy, transport and logistics crises as well as crime and corruption. It was launched over a year ago to address barriers to growth in South Africa.
Giving an online update from a meeting convened by the President with members of the Cabinet and business leaders, Tau says there has been progress under the various work streams.“Yesterday was really the first meeting since the elections and the establishment of the government of national unity. It enabled us to reflect on where we come from but also what the way forward will be between the government and the private sector.
