The Mercury
|November 25, 2025
“RED TAPE’ CONCERNS
BUSINESS owners and other interested parties in the country's business sector have a few days left to comment on the draft Business Licensing Bill.
The public comment period runs until November 28. The comment period for the bill, which was released by the Department of Small Business Development for public comment in September, was extended to November due to heightened interest, according to the department.
The aim of the Bill, according to a Cabinet statement, is to amend the Business Act of 1991, and the amendments seek to establish a modern and efficient business licensing framework that fosters economic growth and regulatory efficiency and also protects the participation of South Africans in the informal sector.
