    President Cyril Ramaphosa Announces His New Cabinet

    0
    By admin on May 30, 2019 World News

    After spending most of Wednesday consulting with his stakeholders in the ANC and advising his future ministers of their selection, President Cyril Ramaphosa has announced who will be in his new, trimmed-down cabinet.

    He revealed that the number of Cabinet portfolios would be trimmed down from 36 to 28.

    Before the restructuring, South Africa’s cabinet comprised 72 people, including the president, his deputy, ministers and deputy ministers – an outlier among countries of the same size and economy.

    The new cabinet will now be made up of 64 members – including President Cyril Ramaphosa, his deputy David Mabuza, 28 ministers and 34 deputies.

    The president reduced 14 ministries to seven, namely:

    • Trade and Industry was combined with Economic Development
    • Higher Education and Training was combined withScience and Technology
    • Environmental Affairs was combined with Forestry and Fisheries
    • Agriculture was combined with Land Reform and Rural Development
    • Mineral Resources was combined with Energy
    • Human Settlements was combined with Water and Sanitation
    • Sports and Recreation was combined with Arts and Culture

    Ministers And Deputies

    The table below outlines how the previous cabinet has changed, including the bundling of old ministries.

    What We Can Tell From The New Cabinet

    According to Presidet Cyril Ramaphosa, in appointing a new national executive, he took experience, continuity, competence, generational mix and demographic and regional diversity into consideration.

    Ramaphosa reduced the size of his cabinet by eight ministers in a move he said would tackle the country’s “bloated” government and improve efficiency.

    With the new cabinet, several notable names are now absent – including Nomvula Mokonyane and Bathabile Dlamini, whose inclusion in the ANC’s parliamentary lists drew criticism due to accusations of corruption and maladministration levelled against them.

    Half of the new ministers are women, making South Africa one of the world’s few gender-balanced governments.
