Public hearings will occur from 26 June 2018 to 6 August 2018 in all provinces around the country. Provinces with a larger rural area will have four days set aside for the hearings while other provinces will have three days of public hearings.

According to co-chairperson of the committee, Lewis Nzimande, at least one of the days will be over a weekend to allow the working public an opportunity to participate in the process.

The later date will allow members of the National Council of Provinces to complete their work regarding the budget votes.

So far, the committee has received more than 100 000 written submissions.

Submit comments here and share for friends to submit too.

According to the committee programme, 7 August to 17 August have been set aside for oral submissions to be held at Parliament.

Deliberation on the inputs is set to occur between 4 and 7 September 2018 with the adoption of the report expected on 11 September 2018, where it will make a recommendation to the National Assembly.
