AL JAMA-AH welcomes Supplementary Budget
The AL JAMA-AH party has welcomed the zero- based budgeting model which the party suggested to the Finance Minister Tito Mboweni at a briefing called earlier this year with Leaders of political parties.
At the briefing AL JAMA-AH’s Member in Parliament, Hon Ganief Hendricks explained the success of this model he experienced in the corporate world and the Minister agreed with him that the model would save 30% in expenses.
We call for the zero-based budgeting to filter through to municipalities and to be included in the budgets given to councillors.
Such a model will also reduce generational and apartheid- based budgeting advantages which has been the case for the past 25years. Hendricks position was that there was too much “fat” in every government expense.
