Shake-up ahead of key ANC meeting

The African National Congress (ANC) is undergoing a major internal overhaul ahead of its national general council in two weeks‚ a mid-term review meeting that will set the tone for the next two years.

It has split its economic transformation committee into two‚ so that one may focus on energy‚ in a tacit acknowledgment that power cuts have cost the economy dearly. Energy‚ primary sector and infrastructure will be headed by Rural Development and Land Reform Minister Gugile Nkwinti.

The other economic development planning will be headed by Enoch Godongwana.

Outside experts will be consulted on economic policy.
