Discussions of the NCCC to scrap the national state of disaster have already been delayed a day, and failure to finalise regulations could result in it being extended again.
Disagreements within South Africa’s government could delay the scrapping of the national state of disaster, as officials and ministers argue over how to manage the coronavirus in the future., the National Coronavirus Command Council will meet on Monday, 14 March 2022, to discuss the regulations necessary to end the state of disaster. The meeting was initially scheduled for Sunday, 13 March 2022.
Sources close to the matter told the Sunday Times that the disagreements stem from concerns over the amount of power the department of health will have once the state of disaster is lifted. Another insider told the Sunday Times that, following Monday’s meeting, President Cyril Ramaphosa would likely announce an extension of the state of disaster if the relevant regulations have not been finalised.
