RFA concerned about lack of transport experience with new Ministers at DoT

While industry bodies such as Agri SA and the Minerals Council South Africa have welcomed the Ministerial appointments or reappointments to the departments that concern them, the Road Freight Association (RFA) is less optimistic about the new Cabinet appointments announced on June 30.

RFA CEO Gavin Kelly says in a statement issued on July 2 that some appointments raise concerns about political motivations, rather than a focused effort to address the country’s pressing issues.
