Gauteng government welcomes Sanral's scrapping of e-tolls debt
Johannesburg - The Gauteng provincial government on Thursday welcomed a decision taken by the South African National Roads Agency to suspend the pursuit of e-toll debt.
The decision was celebrated by the Organisation Undoing Tax Abuse, which called it a strong signal that the end was near for the controversial e-tolls. The lobby group said it would await more clarity from Sanral and government. "I welcome the decision by Sanral on the suspension of summonses and default judgements against those who are not paying e-tolls," he said in a statement.
Makhura said the e-tolls had been a burden to motorists and had added to the cost of doing business in the province.
