Pretoria - Gauteng MEC for Economic Development Parks Tau has been criticised by the DA after it emerged that the province has only one special economic zone up and running.
The status of the special economic zones in the province was laid bare when Tau responded to written questions posed by the DA s Makashule Gana in the legislature.
It also came to light that the Vaalâs zone âonly exists on paper as part of a master plan while there is no geographical location for this zoneâ, according to Gana. The roll-out of special economic zones in the province is seen as a way to reignite the economy by attracting investments and creating jobs.
