University of Cape Town Professor Haroon Bhorat said on Friday that for South Africa to manage its deficit going forward, apart from hoping that growth gets kickstarted in the remaining part of the year, it has to move quickly in effecting revenue collection. Bhorat, who is also a member of President Cyril Ramaphosa’s Presidential Economic Advisory Council, was speaking in a virtual webinar discussion titled ‘Lockdown Economics – Will the economic recovery plan work?’, organised by the Accountability Now platform – a joint initiative between the Brenthurst Foundation and Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung South Africa.
