💨 Abstract

The Democratic Alliance and Economic Freedom Fighters in South Africa aim to delay a parliamentary vote on the 2025 budget due to concerns over a proposed value-added tax hike. Many parties argue that it would negatively impact the poor. A parliamentary committee, including the African National Congress relying on support from a party outside the coalition, adopted a report supporting the budget.
