Spokesperson Lisa Vetten said the Minister should also focus on supporting
Non-Governmental Organisations, because they do a lot of work in community.
The Women’s Legal Centre today said it was disappointed of
several aspects of the budget speech which was delivered by Minister of Finance
Provin Gordhan in Parliament on Wednesday.
The WLC said
the budget speech disappointed on the critical issue of national health
insurance, and there was a lack of focus on safety of learners and teachers at
schools.
Meanwhile the Democratic Nursing
Organization of South Africa has welcomed the announcement by the Minister of
Finance Pravin Gordhan that the White Paper on the National Health Insurance is
completed and will be tabled soon.
Denosa Spokesperson Sibongiseni Delihlazo said they believe
that the quality of health in the country can only be released in an
environment where they are enough health professionals and enough resources.
Delihlazo said the Minister should have touched on the
shortage of staff at certain hospitals and now he just ignored that.
Delihlazo added that the nurses and doctors make the health
system without those people the country would suffered.
