Minister in the Presidency of Planning, Monitoring, and Evaluation Maropene Ramokgopa, who has taken over the coordination of State-owned Enterprises (SOEs) that previously fell under the Department of Public Enterprises, has urged lawmakers to support the timeous processing of the National State Enterprises Bill that includes far-reaching changes to the shareholder management model for SOEs. Delivering her Budget Vote address, Ramokgopa promised to convene a workshop with the Portfolio Committee on Public Enterprises to finalise the passage of a “fit for purpose” piece of legislation.
