R100.000 to be spent in this years' SONA

This year’s State of the Nation Address expenditure will cost just about R100.000, a massive saving compared to millions spent on previous SONAs.

 Thandi Modise, who is the Speaker, said “the cost that will we bear in this particular SONA, as Parliament, will be the costs of paying for the virtual connectivity.”

Due to COVID-19 regulations, only 50 people will be allowed in the chamber and that includes President Cyril Ramaphosa and his deputy, David Mabuza. 

The initial amount that was anticipated to be spent was R2.2 million.

The African National Congress will send 14 members to the Chamber, while the DA will send just about 5. Meanwhile, the EFF is not going to send its members to this year’s State of the Nation Address.

President Cyril Ramaphosa will deliver his SONA today at 7 pm

What are your thoughts on the amount that will be saved by parliament?

Could this be the new norm perhaps?
