1. Izindaba Ezisematheni
1.1. Ezomnotho
1.1.1. IKhabhinethi izwakalise ukuthokoza kwayo ngokukhula kweSamba Somkhiqizo Wezwe (i-GDP) ngama-2.5% ekoteni yesibili yowezi-2017, osekwenze ukuba leli lizwe liphume kwinzikamnotho ebeselingene kuyona. Izibalo ezibonisa lokhu zikhishwe wuphiko Lwezezibalo eNingizimu Afrika (i-Stats SA) ngeviki eledlule, futhi lokhu kusho ukuthi umnotho ukhule ngama-1.1% uma kuqhathaniswa nesikhathi sifanayo ngonyaka odlule.
1.1.2. Nakuba iKhabhinethi ingathandi ukuphanga umdaka lingakani, iyakholelwa ukuthi izwe seliqalile ukubona izinkomba zokuqala zokusimama komnotho okwakhelwe phezu kwesisekelo esiqinile soHlelo Olunamaphuzu Ayisishiyagalolunye, okuhloswe ngalo ukukhulisa umnotho waseNingizimu Afrika futhi kudalwe namathuba omsebenzi adingeka kakhulu kuleli.
Lokhu sekuholele ekwethulweni kwezizinda zomnotho ezine kanye nokukhula kwemikhiqizo yezolimo engakalungiswa ethunyelwa emazweni angaphandle, ngama-14.6% ngonyaka kusukela ngowezi-2012.
1.1.3. Uhlelo Losozimboni Abamnyama selusekele imiklamo engama-62, ehehe utshalomali oluvela emkhakheni ozimele olungamarandi angamabhiliyoni angama-26 futhi kuze kube manje seludale namathuba omsebenzi ayizi-19 859. Ngenhloso yokweseka ukulungiswa kwemikhiqizo kuleli, kuhlonzwe imikhiqizo nemikhakha engama-21 ezokhiqizwa futhi ilungiswe ngaphakathi kuleli.
Kuze kube manje, umkhakhanso we-Operation Phakisa usuvule amathuba otshalomali olulinganiselwa kumabhiliyoni angama-24.6 amarandi emkhakheni wezomnotho wasolwandle, futhi kulesi sisamba uhulumeni ufake utshalomali olungamarandi angamabhiliyoni ayi-15.
Nakuba utshalomali lugxile ikakhulukazi emkhakheni wezokuthuthukiswa kwengqalasizinda yezikhumulo zemikhumbi, nowemikhiqizo yasolwandle, ikakhulukazi ukwakhiwa kwezikebhe, nowokufuywa nokulinywa kwezilwane nezitshalo zasolwandle kanye nezingcwaningo zesayensi emkhakheni wemikhiqizo kawoyela negesi yemvelo, iminyango kahulumeni isifake isandla esibonakalayo impela emizamweni yokuqinisekisa ukukhula kwalo mkhakha. Sekudaleke amathuba omsebenzi ayizi-6 517 emikhakheni ehlukahlukene.
