The public battle for control of the South African Revenue Service between Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan and SARS commissioner Tom Moyane is about control of public finances. Following a dramatic decline in revenue collection in 2016, the shortfall in taxes is expected to reach R30bn in 2017, with long-term consequences for the government’s ability to deliver essential services and pay social grants. To shed more light on this crucial battleground, Business Live’s Focal Point podcasts brings you Revenue Wars, a discussion between Business Day editor-at-large Hilary Joffe, Financial Mail editor Rob Rose and Natasha Marrian, Business Day political editor.
