Various business and medical groups, trade unions, civil rights organisations and political parties have reacted to the signing of the controversial National Health Insurance Bill with warnings of legal action if the decision is not reversed.
Shortly after President Cyril Ramaphosa signed the NHI in a public ceremony at the union buildings on 15 May, Solidarity was the first to show its hand.“Solidarity’s legal battle against the destructive National Health Insurance Bill began within the first hour after Pres. Cyril Ramaphosa signed the bill as a first step, the government has been formally cautioned not to implement the NHI,” said the group in a statement.
Business interest group Sakeliga published a statement following the bill’s signing, urging businesses and the public “to resist this attempted nationalisation of healthcare services and medical practitioners wherever possible.”
