Having transfer duties on house sales is an unjustifiable tax .. high time that voters made their voices heard on this issue. There should only be a fair-priced duty on registering the change of ownership dailyinvestor.com/south-africa/4…
The Global Organized Crime Index 2023 supports my contention that South Africa is under-prepared in terms of being able to respond to synthetic drug threats

In Vienna last week South Africa was identified as one of a few countries having a "severe" synthetic drugs problem. The question to ask is "are we doing enough to address this threat?" I would say 'no', we are not doing enough on all levels: surveillance, treatment, policing
While this might initially sound commendable, why doesn't @TreasuryRSA raise excise taxes to fund SAPS so government don't need to rely on largesse of this liquor producer, with attendant risks of this relationship undermining implementation of other alcohol control measures?

Nadine Burnhams presenting at the South African Epidemiology Network on Drug Use (Western Cape) meeting raises issue that substance use is a key factor in the country's quadruple burden of disease
This supports our longstanding call for South Africa's NHI plan to focus substantially more on "promoting health & preventing disease" rather than myopically focusing on curative services @MRCza @Discovery @HealthZA businesstech.co.za/news/lifestyle…
South Africa's NHI plan is also hampered by not giving enough attention to promoting health and preventing disease. It is too focused on curative services. That alone should be sufficient grounds for giving it the 👎 unless this deficiency is addressed dailyinvestor.com/south-africa/4…

This is 2.2 standard units of absolute alcohol (@ 12 g or 15 ml/unit). This should be clearly stated on the (non resealable) bottle. Would be in the interests of public health if there was a lower maximum size for a bottle of beer, probably 500ml @HealthZA timeslive.co.za/news/south-afr…
This is a staggering revelation. The minister himself should have surely taken leave to attend this event as it surely had no bearing on his job? IPID or Parliament needs to look into how all this seeming wasteful expenditure can be recouped @jsteenhuisen news24.com/news24/politic…
Budget 2024: missed opportunity. Commendable that excise taxes on wine have⬆️ed to a greater % than spirits, but health effects of alcohol come from ethanol, not type of liquor product so wud make more sense to make excise tax rate/litre of absolute alcohol equal across products

What an inappropriate sentence for tavern owners for selling alcohol to minors! Sends completely the wrong message. 100 days in prison WITHOUT the option of a fine would have sent out a clearer message! enca.com/top-stories/wa…
Given the enormous health burden resulting from alcohol use globally and @gatesfoundation's commitment to addressing HIV & other health problems, isn't this an inconsistency?bloomberg.com/news/articles/… via @wealth
Wish I could testify in aggravation of sentencing in the upcoming sentencing hearing. Profiting from selling alcohol to minors is a heinous crime & a strong message needs to be sent to ALL liquor traders, including persons/companies that do home deliveries news24.com/news24/southaf…
