BOSA’s “Alternative Budget Proposals” offers fiscal policy changes for South Africa, targeting over R100 billion in savings and revenue without cutting essential services. Proposed measures include a hiring freeze in senior government management, cutting SOE bailouts, efficiency cuts in provincial bureaucracies, and ending VIP protection for politicians (except the President and Deputy President). These changes aim to avoid a VAT increase, protect vulnerable citizens, and redirect resources to key areas like infrastructure and youth employment.
