ANA reports that on Monday trade union federation Cosatu in Gauteng said it had noted the meeting held between Transport Minister Fikile Mbalula, the Organisation Undoing Tax Abuse (Outa) and the Automobile Association (AA) over the e-tolls.
Provincial chairperson Amos Monyela remarked: "We were delighted by the announcement by President Cyril Ramaphosa that both ministers Tito Mboweni, Fikile Mbalula and [Gauteng] Premier David Makhura should work together towards finding a lasting solution to this policy nightmare. Whilst we are waiting for a positive response by this troika to the president and cabinet, we are worried about how this troika has conducted itself, particularly engaging some stakeholders and excluding others." He said it was unfortunate that Cosatu had been excluded from the talks and warned that should the talks fail, the federation would stage a march. Indicating that Cosatu would accept nothing that fell short of scrapping the e-tolls, Monyela added that if the talks failed “we will have an appointment with the troika and in particular Mbalula and Mboweni outside their departments with a large contingent of members to demand answers."
