Eskom het die afgelope maande gesukkel om kragvoorsiening te waarborg, en di\u00e9 gespook het gelei tot ho\u00ebr en konstante fases beurtkrag. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
President Cyril Ramaphosa het verlede Donderdag (9 Februarie) tydens sy staatsrede \u2019n nasionale ramptoestand verklaar om die elektrisiteitskrisis te hanteer. \u2019n Minister sal nou aangestel word om die kragkrisis te bestuur, terwyl die regering sal verseker dat Eskom genoeg geld vir diesel het om deur die jaar te kom, het Ramaphosa verklaar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOm enige verwarring uit die weg te ruim, sal die minister van openbare ondernemings steeds die aandeelhouers van Eskom verteenwoordig en die herstrukturering van Eskom bestuur,\u201d het Ramaphosa ges\u00ea. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2019n Ramptoestand is sodoende verklaar, wat die staat nou in staat stel om praktiese maatre\u00ebls te implementeer om ondernemings, wat deur beurtkrag geraak word, te help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ramaphosa het verduidelik uitgawes wat met die ramptoestand verband hou, noukeurig deur die ouditeur-generaal (OG) gemonitor sal word. Dit volg in die lig van ondersoeke wat van stapel gestuur is oor beweringe van korrupsie in en n\u00e1 die Covid-pandemie en die gepaardgaande ramptoestand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens Ramaphosa sal die nuwe minister se taak wees om op beurtkrag te fokus en toe te sien dat \u2019n energie-aksieplan opgestel en so gou as moontlik ge\u00efmplementeer word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Opposisiepartye het intussen hul ongelukkigheid oor die verklaring van \u2019n ramptoestand uitgespreek. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die DA-leier, John Steenhuisen, meen die land \u201cwas al voorheen hier\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTydens die Covid-19-ramp het ons die noodlottige gebreke in die wetgewing oor die nasionale ramptoestand gesien, wat die ANC onbeperkte mag gegee het om sonder enige parlement\u00eare toesig te plunder,\u201d het Steenhuisen ges\u00ea. Hy het dit duidelik gemaak die party het reeds sy regspan opdrag gegee om die aankondiging in die hof te betwis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dr. Pieter Groenewald, die leier van die VF Plus, is nog \u2019n teenstander van Ramaphosa se verklaring. Hy meen dr. Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma, wat in beheer van die energie-ramptoestand is, is nie goeie nuus nie. \u201cDie feit dat dit ook weer sonder behoorlike parlement\u00eare toesig bestuur gaan word, beteken dat Suid-Afrika uitgelewer is aan elemente wat nou reeds met gretige o\u00eb na die geld en moontlikhede kyk wat met die ramptoestand saamkom,\u201d s\u00ea Groenewald.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Intussen sal die R350-toelaag, \u2019n oorblyfsel van die Covid-19-pandemie, steeds uitbetaal word.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
