Cape Town Mayor Geordin Hill-Lewis strongly condemns a 540-million-rand cut in national funding to the city over the next two years. The reduction is part of nationwide cuts announced by Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana in the national budget speech on Wednesday. Hill-Lewis expresses concern that Cape Town will receive 52-million-rand less than forecasted in last year's national budget for infrastructure grants related to housing, basic services, and informal settlement upgrading.
