EFF Approves of Minister of Health using a Public Hospital and will work towards making the usage of Public Services by Public Representatives Compulsory

13 August 2013

Economic Freedom Fighters approves the fact that the Minister of Health is admitted at the Steve Biko Academic Hospital, which is a public hospital. EFF approves because one of our fundamental principles and policy position is that all elected Public representatives should use public services and institutions. All the public representatives in all the Legislatures and Parliaments of South Africa, including those in government will use public institutions and services, particularly schools and heath care. 

We believe that such is one of the means that will make public representatives take their mandates and work seriously in improving the quality of these services. Above all this is a statement of confidence on the services government provides to the public.

EFF does not approve of the low quality of many hospitals and healthcare facilities in South Africa, and has an obligation to work towards ensuring that they are are all improved.
