Time-consuming, ineffective or excessive red tape impacts on the efficiency of organisations and ultimately cost the South African economy R79 billion each year. In the Department of Design, SIRA Consulting and the Western Cape Government collaborate to provide best practices that are applicable for the South African situation in order to reduce administrative burdens and to improve public services.

The workshop will include discussions with governments and businesses about opportunities to overcome trade barriers caused by red tape and the support they need to cut red tape. Together we can create an enabling environment that will grow the economy of the Western Cape and create jobs. The Western Cape Government supports municipalities and businesses to making it easier, cheaper and faster to do business in the Western Cape.
