ANC social transformation subcommittee chair Lindiwe Sisulu has confirmed the basic income grant is on the cards, saying finance minister Enoch Godongwana will give the final verdict.
Speaking at the ANC’s sixth policy conference at the weekend, Sisulu said the introduction of a basic income grant was possible.
“We were the committee that made it possible to provide our people during lockdown with R350 as an interim measure for their sustainability. We realised it was possible to deal beyond that and deal with basic income grants.
