Gauteng Health owes many suppliers millions of rands. This forces these SME's to stop trading as their cash flow has been severely affected by non-payment or rather partial payment. Gauteng Health's CFO stated that they endeavour to pay all their suppliers something per month as they only get allocated a certain amount from Treasury. This however is often not adequate resulting in SME's retrenching workers and eventually closing their doors. Gauteng Health should be held accountable! How do you order something you are not sure that you have the money to pay for?
