We would like to congratulate the team and MR Maluleke of Statistics SA for continuing to do a sterling job at Statistics SA. But, as a continued effort via the ruling party to reduce Statistics SA to a help desk. They do not give them funding and they do not support them.
Statistics SA is unable to carry out important research and collect data to inform important policy decisions due to budgetary constraints. Any government that does not prioritise funding for such an important programme of data collection, particularly Statistics SA does not take a responsibility of governing seriously like the ANC government.
