R7bn support for manufacturing projects

Pretoria - The government had approved tax incentives worth R7bn for large manufacturing projects since 2010, Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan said on Thursday.

"I want to add that the manufacturing competitiveness enhancement programme was initiated in June this year and 144 applications have been received with a value of R1.8bn," Gordhan said.

This is part of the R25bn economic support package announced in last year’s medium-term budget policy statement, which also includes allocations to strengthen training in agriculture, support for minerals beneficiation technology and a Northern Cape semi-precious gemstone project.
