Die minister van Finansies, Enoch Godongwana, gaan die 2025-begroting op 21 Mei weer ter tafel lê. Dit volg na 'n besluit om die voorgestelde BTW-verhoging van 0.5-persentasiepunte om te keer. Godongwana het aan die media gesê die hersiene begroting sal bygewerkte fiskale projeksies, leningsplanne en inkomsteberamings insluit. Dit sal volledig met die kabinet en politieke partye in die regering van nasionale eenheid bespreek word:

Minister van Finansies, Enoch Godongwana sê net president Cyril Ramaphosa het die gesag om hom uit sy amp te verwyder. Dit kom te midde van negatiewe openbare en politieke reaksie oor die voorgestelde BTW-verhoging. Godongwana het aan die media gesê dat die regering, totdat die nuwe begroting goedgekeur is, onder tussentydse reëls sal funksioneer wat die gebruik van tot 45-persent van verlede jaar se begroting toelaat:

Die Activists and Citizens Forum sê hy verwerp geheel en al die oproepe om die bedanking van die Minister van Finansies, Enoch Godongwana. Godongwana het verlede week aangekondig die 0,5 persent BTW-verhoging word teruggetrek. Woordvoerder van die Forum, Dennis Bloem, sê in plaas van Godongwana, doen hulle 'n beroep dat die hele parlement ontbind word en nuwe verkiesings gehou word:

Die DA het bevestig dat die minister van Finansies, Enoch Godongwana, se prokureurs die party genader het om buite die hof te skik. Dit hou verband met die DA se aansoek in die Hooggeregshof om ʼn interdik te kry teen die BTW-verhoging. Godongwana het intussen in ʼn verklaring gesê hy het besluit om die BTW-verhoging van 0,5-persentasiepunte terug te trek. Die voorsitter van die DA se federale raad, Helen Zille, sê hulle vergader vandag met ʼn hoëvlak-ANC-afvaardiging:

Die DA sê finansminister Enoch Godongwana se besluit om die BTW-verhoging van 'n 0,5-persentasiepunt te skrap, is ʼn draaipunt in die stryd om Suid-Afrikaners teen ongeregverdigde finansiële laste te beskerm. Die party sê hy het ʼn voorstel van Godongwana se prokureurs ontvang om buite die hof te skik oor sy interdik-aansoek teen die verhoging. Die voorsitter van die party se federale raad, Helen Zille, sê die minister sou dit nie omgekeer het as dit nie vir die DA was nie:

Bongani Bingwa speaks with Hillary Joffe, Editor-at-Large at Business Day, as the International Monetary Fund lowers global growth forecasts, warning of a fundamental reset in the global economic system. While Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana projected 1.9% GDP growth for South Africa in 2025, the IMF now expects as little as 1% amid global uncertainty triggered by shifting U.S. trade policies. With South African officials, including Godongwana and SARB Governor Lesetja Kganyago, in Washington for the G20 finance track, global economic stability hangs in the balance. 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

Finance minister Enoch Godongwana didn't take kindly to being called “rogue” in parliament after defending his decision to increase VAT. He clashed with DA MP Mark John Burke over accusations that he ignored the Treasury's advice on the controversial tax hike.

Finance Minister, Enoch Godongwana has called for calm heads as reactions to his budget speech continue to pour in. The Minister is currently appearing before parliament's committees on Finance following his budget speech on Wednesday. This follows the announcement that government proposes a VAT increase of one percentage point over a two year period. Godongwana says such measures are intended at tackling financial challenges in health, education, transport and the military amongst others

Die minister van Finansies, Enoch Godongwana, het 5 miljard Suid-Afrikaanse rand bewillig ter ondersteuning van die Suid-Afrikaanse Nasionale Weermag se vredespogings in die Demokratiese Republiek die Kongo. Dit vorm deel van die breër toekenning van 9 miljard rand vir sekerheidsfunksies, insluitend befondsing vir korrektiewe dienste. Godongwana het tydens sy begrotingstoespraak gesê pogings om die weermag te moderniseer sal voortgaan, om te verseker die land kom sy plaaslike en internasionale verpligtinge na:

Finansminister Enoch Godongwana het 'n plan aangekondig om die BTW-koers teen 2026/'27 tot 16-persent te verhoog. Die BTW-koers sal op 1 Mei met 0,5-persentasiepunte styg en op 1 April volgende jaar met 'n bykomende 0,5-persentasiepunte. Godongwana het in sy begrotingsrede gesê die verhoging word benodig om staatsbesteding aan noodsaaklike dienste soos gesondheid, onderwys, vervoer en sekerheid te ondersteun.

In a first for democratic South Africa, the 2025 budget speech has been postponed to March 12. We hear the reactions of various parties on the announcement and the finance Minister Enoch Godongwana explains the contentious issues on the table.

On the last Sunday Show of 2024, Neil de Beer, the President of the United Independent Movement (UIM), issues a stern warning to Julius Malema, the re-elected President of Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), over his latest “derogatory, violent and revolutionary speech”:    “Ons sal jou moer. We will not allow you to destabilise this beautiful country. Law enforcement, Defence Force and Intelligence, they know they have absolutely our support - and we will have their back.” De Beer once again slams President Cyril Ramaphosa's handling of the BELA Act. However, he has praise for three African National Congress (ANC) Ministers: Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana, Electricity Minister Kgosientsho Ramokgopa, and Police Minister Senzo Mchunu. He also hails the work of Democratic Alliance (DA) Home Affairs Minister Leon Schreiber. Furthermore, De Beer speaks about the “Green Communists” in the ANC, sketches two options for the future of South Africa's struggling SOEs, and explains why he regards Bitcoin as an “emotional currency”.

To help us understand COSATU's stance on the budget and the wage proposal fallout, we're joined by Matthew Parks, COSATU's Parliamentary Coordinator. Matthew brings a critical perspective on how these economic decisions affect South Africa's working class and what COSATU believes is necessary for worker stability and fair compensation.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Die buurland se finansminister, Enoch Godongwana, waarsku teen oorhaastige onttrekking uit pensioenfondse as deel van die tweepotstelsel wat op 1 September in werking tree. Die stelsel gee aftreefondslede toegang tot hulle spaargeld sonder om te bedank of al hulle spaargeld uit die pensioenfonds te onttrek. Godongwana sê hy is nie gesteurd oor diegene wat kla oor die belasting wat hulle op die onttrekkings moet betaal nie.

Die Suid-Afrikaanse finansminister, Enoch Godongwana, sê met die regering se vinnige instelling van die aksieplan waarop met die Finansiële Aksietaakmag ooreengekom is, sal die land vroeg volgende jaar van die gryslys verwyder word. Suid-Afrika is in Februarie verlede jaar op die gryslys geplaas omdat hy nie voldoen aan internasionale standaarde wat geldwassery en onwettige finansiële transaksies betref nie. Godongwana sê sy departement het 31,2-miljoen Suid-Afrikaanse rand toegeken aan belastingbeleid-subprogram in die ekonomiese beleid-, belasting-, finansiële regulering- en navorsingsprogram om die land van die gryslys te kry:

Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana has outlined a stringent approach to state-owned enterprises in the latest Medium-Term Policy Budget Speech. He has tightened conditions for Eskom's debt relief and insists that a Transnet bailout depends on the government's new logistics sector roadmap. Business Day TV spoke to Hilary Joffe, Editor at Large for Business Day for more insight.

Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana has presented the 2023 medium-term budget policy statement and has maintained Treasury's prudent stance of fiscal consolidation in the face of a revenue shortfall of R57 billion this year. Business Day TV unpacked the MTBPS with Sars Commissioner, Edward Kieswetter.

Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana presented his medium-term budget in Parliament, revealing that disappointing tax revenues and rising costs to service the debt have taken a toll on government finances. Godongwana's predictions include a slower-than-anticipated economic growth of 0.8% compared to his February budget projections, accompanied by a substantial increase of R54.7 billion in the main budget deficit. These forecasts according to Dawie Roodt, the Chief Economist at the Efficient Group, are far too optimistic. In an interview with Biznews, Roodt said he did not believe the projected growth would materialise and that several items are not included in the deficit numbers. The finance minister's overall picture, he said, is not as rosy as the minister is portraying it. It is significantly worse. Roodt also believes that Transnet will have to be bailed out. Without it, he said, the economy is not going to function. Roodt estimates that the fiscal deficit is closer to 6.6% if Eskom's debt is considered. Cutting the size of the state sector, he regarded it as good news and suggested the government start with VIP Protection expenses. The real picture of the economy, he said, will emerge in the main budget in February 2024. Roodt also said the picture that Mr Godongwana painted of himself as Mr Austerity does not hold water; he is Mr Expenditure. – Linda van Tilburg

Finance Minister Enoch Godogwana has described South Africa's public finances as significantly weaker in his mid-term budget emphasising that measures to stabilise public finances and reform the economy to generate higher growth are essential. Markets reactions were generally favourable with the rand strengthening. Thea Fourie from S&P Global Market Intelligence said in an interview with Biznews that lower expenditure was a welcome surprise and that the investor community appeared to be happy with Mr Godongwana's projections, but said concerns lingered about the persistent rise in the public sector debt-to-GDP ratio. Medium term risks remained on the horizon, she said. Transnet and Eskom, Fourie warned could be bad news for the debt trajectory. These risks she said raised concerns about the government's ability to achieve its objectives. - Linda van Tilburg

The medium-term budget policy statement will be presented by Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana on November 1. In the lead up to this, Ninety One has commented that Godongwana is caught between a rock and a hard place as revenue weakness persists and spending pressures mount. For more detail, Business Day TV spoke to Ninety One fixed income analyst Sisamkele Kobus.

The SA economy, including the financial markets, will withstand volatility coming out of the ANC's internal political contestation, finance minister Enoch Godongwana said on Saturday.
