The Democratic Alliance DA has urged Transport Minister Barbara Creecy to expedite reforms at South Africa's ports, warning that ongoing inefficiencies continue to undermine economic growth and export competitiveness.
DA member of parliament and spokesperson on transport, Chris Hunsinger, on Tuesday highlighted persistent operational failures, particularly at the Port of Cape Town, during the recent fruit export season.
'Failures at the port cost the fruit sector hundreds of millions of rands in losses and additional transport costs,' Hunsinger said.
