DURBAN - The Beer Association of SA has welcomed the Cabinet's lifting of the booze ban.
It added that tonight’s announcement is cold comfort for many businesses that have not survived the alcohol bans that have been imposed over the past 16 months after receiving zero financial assistance from the government. It is therefore critical that those that have managed to stay afloat are still compensated through the Covid-19 Unemployment Insurance Fund Temporary Employer/Employee Relief Scheme .
The beer industry is also appreciative of the three-month tax relief announced by the president this evening. The sector hopes that the government will continue to engage with it regarding other proposals that will assist in rebuilding the industry after the four bans. Basa remains committed to working openly and transparently with the government and rolling out reasonable interventions that can save both lives and livelihoods during the pandemic. This includes the use of click-and-collect platforms to assist in ensuring the safety of consumers, the halting of sponsored events that encourage gatherings and enhanced adherence to safety protocols at all its outlets.
