28. RECENT INDUSTRY DEVELOPMENTS
In November 2017, big business delivered a “white paper” to government outlining the “MAP TO A MILLION” plan to create a million manufacturing jobs within the next decade.
Two specific elements of this plan has relevance:
“We recommend that the SETA system be abolished, but that the skills levy be retained for general revenue purposes, with deductions to be claimed by companies from SARS for training actually done. The accumulated surplus and reserves can be applied to reduce education and training costs through existing channels.”
“We recommend that the highly successful NTIP model be scaled up to accelerate the provision of skilled labour across all levels of the manufacturing sector.”
