The aim of the joint sitting is to give President Cyril Ramaphosa an opportunity to outline South Africa's Economic Reconstruction and Recovery Plan.

President Cyril Ramaphosa will on Thursday unveil government’s economic reconstruction and recovery plan during a joint sitting of Parliament.

In a letter he wrote to National Assembly Speaker Thandi Modise last week requesting the joint sitting, the President said the country needs to take extraordinary measures towards a speedy and sustainable economic recovery.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a devastating impact on the economy due to lockdown where some of the economic activities came to a standstill except essential services.

The video below looks at expectations from President Ramaphosa’s economic recovery plan:

The joint sitting which will be held via hybrid will be at 2 pm in the afternoon.

The economic recovery plan seeks to address the huge economic fallout and job losses that have resulted from the COVID-19 lockdown.

The joint sitting means the President’s reply to oral questions in the National Council of Provinces (NCOP) will be rescheduled.

Below is the statement from the Presidency:
