PSC backs Ramaphosa's plan to build local economy
Johannesburg - President Cyril Ramaphosa plans to revive small businesses in the country received a major boost after the Public Service Commission pledged to deal harshly with government departments failing to pay service providers within 30 days.
PSC chairperson Adv Richard Sizani said his Commission will continue to monitor government departments closely on their compliance with the 30 day payment period.The PSC’s pledge came after Ramaphosa made a call to government to ensure that suppliers are paid on time.
