Speaker, I would like to thank the Minister for his response. Minister, you are reported to have said that South Africa can only create 4 million jobs by 2025 on our current growth trajectory and that this is not enough to make a dent in unemployment. This is below the New Growth Path objective to create 5 million jobs by 2020. A youth wage subsidy is a fiscal policy intervention to lower the price to employers of new and inexperienced workers, but it will not resolve the problem of unemployment and poverty on its own.
Hon Minister, you have said: "We may have to change the labour dispensation in South Africa". We know that Cosatu does not support the youth wage subsidy. What steps are you taking to ensure that their opposition to it does not prevent its implementation? Thank you.
