Johannesburg - South Africans may once again send their tips on what they would like to see in the country's budget and what they think government's spending priorities should be, according to the Ministry of Finance.
An addition to this year's campaign - which started in 2001 as "Tips for Trevor" (referring to former minister of finance Trevor Manuel) - is new minister Pravin Gordhan's presence on Facebook. Gordhan has a fan page on the social network system, which provides another avenue for South Africans to engage with him.
Budget suggestions may also be sent using the National Treasury's website (www.treasury.gov.za); by post to Private Bag x115, Pretoria, 0001; or by fax to 012 315 5126.
Gordhan will deliver his budget speech in parliament on February 17.
