President Cyril Ramaphosa expressed concern about the destructive phenomenon of red tape in government and its impact on service-delivery and economic development in his state of the nation address in 2022.
“There are too many regulations in this country that are unduly complicated, costly and difficult to comply with. This prevents companies from growing and creating jobs.
As I point out above, all countries have some form of legal and regulatory machinery as part of ensuring governance order and avoiding anarchy. In our context, red tape locates itself around a number of areas that include administrative and procedural delays; government staff time to receive and process forms; inspection of premises by designated officials and fines for confiscated or destroyed goods among others.
What we see sometimes is that because of insufficient training or poor resourcing those who are on the local government sphere of government are unable to handle the regulatory function and thus leading to long delays in processing paperwork.
