“I have seen that there’s a lot of excitement politically on the minister of electricity, Mr Project Manager, who will deal with the electricity interventions.
According to the DA’s calculations based on the Ministerial Handbook, the salary of the minister would cost R2.4 million per year, and the deputy minister’s salary at a R2 million per year.But Mbalula says there will be no deputy minister. He added that the new minister is going to continuously brief government on the progress made “weekly or monthly”.
