South Africa: The DA's Plan for Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment That Will Boost Economic Growth and Job Creation

press release

During apartheid, racial separation and economic discrimination were the defining characteristics of South Africa. Black South Africans were subject to ruthless asset-stripping and restrictions: labour laws that prevented their advancement, land expropriation, business regulations banning black ownership, Bantu education, and laws that prevented black South Africans from living in metropolitan areas.

The DA looks forward to the time when everyone in South Africa can participate fully in a non-racial economy and society. South Africa must continue on the journey towards achieving justice for all. In order to achieve this, we need to make strategic interventions to counter the effects of apartheid's asset stripping and restrictions. This can be done by growing our economy and creating more jobs for South Africans. Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE) is one of the interventions that will help to achieve this.
