BOSA joins parties meeting with ANC to negotiate passing of budget

Build One South Africa has joined the list of parties meeting with the African National Congress (ANC) to negotiate the passing of the contentious budget. BOSA confirmed that it had been approached by the ANC requesting a meeting on the budget, which still must go through Parliament before it’s fully adopted. The meeting with BOSA follows a similar meeting between the ANC and ActionSA, which has since rejected the budget, which still includes a 0.5 percentage point value-added tax (VAT) increase. Phemelo discusses this further with BOSA leader Mmusi Maimane.
