Metro-begroting‘steek’ 49%verhoging weg
DieMangaung-metrosekonsepbegroting steek’ngroot verhoging in eiendomsbelasting weg.
So sê Tjaart vander Walt,DA-wyksraadslid: “Terwyldie Mangaung-metro beweer eiendomswaardes hetmet tussen 14% en 25%gestyg, wysdie konsepbegrotingdie teendeel
“Volgens die voorgestelde begroting gaandie waardasies met tot49% op sedertdie vorige aanpassing in 2022.”
Vander Walt sê die5%-tarriefverlagingwat in die konsepbegrooting voorgestel word,sal beslis nie hierdie verhoginguitkanselleer nie
“Die R80 000 vrystellingbiedook min verligting.
“Die resultaat is eenvoudig-inwonersgaanmeerbetaal
“Die konsepbegrotingwat tydens Maandag30Maart se raadsvergadering voorgehouis, projekteer datdie verhogingininkomste uit eiendomsbelasting sowat33% meer salwees.
“So’nberaamdeinkomste in ’n stad met swak ekonomiesegroei en lae
betalingsvlakke, salinwonersnet verder belas, dit moeiliker maak vir inwoners om hulrekenings te betaal en die metro se geldelikeproblemevererger.”
Die DA doen nou’nberoepopdie metroseuitvoerende burgemeester, GregoryNthatisi, om ’n onafhanklike oudit vandie waardasierol te laat
doen,teverduidelik hoekom eiendomswaardes met 49% verhooghet en verduidelik hoeverskillende huishoudings geraak word en hoedie impak verminder gaan word
Vander Walt sê die DA vraook vir ’n billikekortingstelsel soos watKaapstad gebruik,waaropverligtingopdie waarde vaneiendomdeur inkomste bepaal word
“InMangaung is daar slegsbetalingsverligtingvir inwoners watminder as R7 000 verdien
“TerwylKaapstad se verhogings vaneiendomswaardasies gemiddeldongeveer7%iseninwoners’n tariefverlagingvan 10% betaal,wil Mangaung-inwonersbelas met ’n 33% eiendomstariefverhoging, watonredelik is,” sê hy
Vander Walt sê Mangaung se plan belasinwonersenloopdie risiko om dienste en betalingskoerse te verminder.”
’n Verantwoordelikebegrotingmoet inwoners beskermengroei ondersteun –hierdie konsepbegrotingdoennie een vandie twee nie.”

AstaggeringR5,7 billion in outstandingmedical claims exist againstthe Free StateDepartmentofHealth
DavidMasoeu, DA spokesperson forhealth in theFree StateLegislator, says these outstandingclaims forthe 2024-’25 financial year are linked to medicalnegligence andmalpractice in Free State hospitals and clinics
“Wehavesubmittedquestions to the MECfor Health, Monyatso Mahlatsi,seeking clarityand accountability on the medical-legalclaims againstthe department.”
Hisstatementfollows an oversightvisit by the ParliamentarySelectCommittee on
Social Services to clinics and hospitals in the Mangaung area at the endofMarch.Masoeu says the number of outstandingclaims places significant pressure on an alreadystrained fiscus and hasdevastating consequences forthe delivery of healthcareservices
“Funds that should be directedtowards critical service delivery, addressing the shortage of ambulances, filling vacant medical posts, and improvingpatientcare, arebeing divertedtosettle claims that could have been avoided
“Theincrease in outstandingclaims between2023-’24 and 2024-’25 is indicativeof the department’sfailureto meaningfullyaddressissues within the department. The
Auditor-General flaggedsevere leadership challenges, as well as financial and performance challenges.”
Masoeu said the only sustainable waytoaddressthese challengeswas to ensure that appointments aremerit-based, with the mostqualified and capableindividualsentrusted with positionsofauthority.
“TheDAremains concerned aboutthe department’stransparencyand its willingnessto confrontissues
“Wewill continue to pressure the departmenttoensure that atangible plan is putin place to addressoutstanding medical claims,reduce future frivolous healthcarecosts,and prioritiseand improveservice delivery.”

Costs prompt adaptability
QUINTUSSLIEP
Therising cost of fuel drives businessesto significantlyrethinktheir labour costs.
Apermanentworkforce is becomingchallengingtosustain, and many organisations are shifting toward more flexible staffing models to enable them to scale more easily while maintainingoperational continuity. Temporary EmploymentServices (TES)offer astrategic solution, creatingsharedvalue and ongoing advantages for companies and workers.
Alarge permanentworkforce quickly becomes a fixedoverheadthat cannot adaptwhen conditions shift,puttingpressureonmargins andpotentiallyleadingtojob losses down the line.With rising operatingcosts,businessesare expectedtorespond quickly This means businessesmustbeable to reduce unnecessaryoverheads while maintainingeffectiveoperations and to scale with changingmarketconditions Amore flexible labour modelmeans longterm employmentcommitmentscan be reduced. It offerscostcontrol, agility, and operational continuity, whichhelps organisations stay financiallyresilientand navigate unpredictable periodswith moreconfidence
Asolution likeTES hasbecome more than just away to fill in the gaps when someone goesonleave or requirements spike. It helpsto build resilience by ensuringthatthe workforce is flexibleenough to keep operations running without carryingunnecessary overhead. This is especiallyvaluable when demand fluctuates, when newprojects requirespecialisedskills,or when organisations need to ramp up or scale down without disruptingservice delivery It alsoplays arole in risk managementand reduces exposure to long-termemploymentobligations and supports compliance in acomplex labour environment. It alsolimits the operational impact when someone resignssuddenlyoris off sick.TES gives businessesaccess to areliable external talentpoolsotheycan maintain continuitywithout havingtokeepa largeworkforce Maintainingalarge, fixedworkforce is becomingincreasingly difficult for businesses to justify, given economic pressuresthatcreate ahigh-costand unpredictable environment.
