JOHANNESBURG - Finance Minister, Enoch Godongwana, will make his second attempt at the Budget Speech on Wednesday.
Questions around a possible VAT increase is the hot topic ahead of that. Godongwana says an increase is needed to continue funding the Social Relief of Distress grant.
But many others argue that the wealthy should be taxed instead.
Liso Mdutyana, tax and budget policy researcher at the Institute for Economic Justice spoke to eNCA.
