Dear Portfolio Committee on Small Business Development,

NEW YEAR, NEW BEGINNINGS.

After reading the Minutes of the meeting held on the 15th of July 2020, I was happy to hear from SEDA being ready to do the rollout on TEF. I have done and submitted the application. We all know how tripled are our businesses through Covid 19 pandemic we are looking forward to getting urgent assistance. Other businesses are seasonal if we miss the season the business will suffer the whole year. School Wear Manufacturers are one of those seasonal businesses that's an example.

As businesses, we are very much appreciative of these initiatives but if there are no time frames and urgency we won't reap the rewards.
Our Government is doing an amazing job through the Committees we are very much thankful as the Nation and Citizens of South Africa.

I THANK YOU.
