Pretoria, 5 March 2019 – Following the recent announcement in Budget 2019, the South African Revenue Service (SARS) has compiled an excise rewrite discussion document to further the process of redrafting the excise legislative framework.
The discussion document outlines the internationally recognised aspects of an excise administration against which any excise review must be measured. The introduction and current practice of the duty-at-source (DAS) system of excise administration provides the context to the review of the excise legislation. Certain apparent shortcomings in the current legislation regarding DAS licensing, accounting, assessment and acquittal of excise duties have been identified for possible amendment. A comparison of various countries is also provided to demonstrate international examples of reform options. Finally, a summary conclusion reflects the proposals that SARS supports.
The discussion document aims to elicit constructive inputs and comments from all affected industries that manufacture, use, import and export excisable goods, as well as from broader excise stakeholders. Upon completion of the public comment period and once comments have been processed, SARS intends to approach representative industry bodies and applicable government departments for further engagements on those particular reform proposals that require additional inputs and refinement.
Stakeholders are invited to forward their inputs and comments by 31 May 2019 for the attention of Ms Samantha Authar, either electronically to C&E_legislativecomments@sars.gov.za, or manually to the South African Revenue Service, Private Bag X923, Pretoria, 0001.

Sandi Crowther Recruitment
One of the most established team of Recruitment Consultants in Durban with a reputation for sourcing and placing top quality candidates at select companies.
The president of the International Aids Society on Tuesday hailed the news that a second person was reported to be HIV-free, after a stem cell transplant, as a critical moment in the search for an HIV cure for the disease.
Anton Pozniak, president of the International AIDS Society (IAS) said the announcement “reaffirms our belief that there exists a proof of concept that HIV is curable”.
“The hope is that this will eventually lead to a safe, cost-effective and easy strategy to achieve these results using gene technology or antibody techniques,” said Pozniak.
Pozniak was commenting in the aftermath of the news that a London patient appears to have been cured of HIV after a bone marrow transplant from a donor with a special genetic mutation.
His case was published in Nature journal yesterday, and simultaneously announced by University College London researchers at the annual Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections in Seattle.
‘Functionally cured’
The “London patient”, who has asked to remain anonymous, was diagnosed with HIV in 2003. In 2012, he developed a blood cancer called Hodgkin’s lymphoma.
He became very ill in 2016 and had a bone marrow transplant from a donor with a genetic mutation — known as CCR5 delta 32 — which has been shown to resist HIV.
Since the transplant, there has been no sign of HIV and he stopped taking antiretroviral medicine 19 months ago.
“There is no virus there that we can measure. We can’t detect anything,” Professor Ravindra Gupta told the conference, describing his patient as “functionally cured”.
“The so-called London Patient has now been off ART for 19 months with no viral rebound which is impressive, but I would still be closely monitoring his viral load,” Sharon Lewin, IAS Governing Council Member and Co-Chair of the Towards an HIV Cure initiative, said.
“However, this is a long time to be in remission off ART’’.
Two factors at play
“Coming 10 years after the successful report of the Berlin Patient, this new case confirms that bone marrow transplantation from a CCR5-negative donor can eliminate residual virus and stop any traces of virus from rebounding,” said Lewin.
“Two factors are likely at play — the new bone marrow is resistant to HIV and also the new bone marrow is actively eliminating any HIV-infected cells through something called graft versus host disease.”
This is the second time a person has been cleared of HIV following a bone marrow transplant from a donor with this genetic mutation.
Twelve years ago, Timothy Brown — initially called the “Berlin patient” before he decided to go public — had this transplant and has been clear of HIV ever since.

National Health Insurance (NHI) is critical to creating a quality functioning healthcare system for all South Africans and it is good to see that Finance Minister Tito Mboweni’s Budget Speech covered areas such as increased funding for certain diseases and improved service delivery in the public sector.
Damian McHugh, head of marketing, Momentum health services.
Healthcare in South Africa can only work if the public and private sectors work in partnership – not one at the expense of the other. That is according to Damian McHugh, head of marketing at Momentum’s health solutions.
“By strengthening public health delivery, and with the private sector making sure that it is working towards a healthier South African healthcare sector by looking for opportunities to work with public entities, we can improve and safeguard the health of all South Africans,” says McHugh.
Mboweni unveiled several changes intended to improve the public health system and address funding for initiatives like the NHI.
Flat lining medical tax credits
To fund the NHI specifically, Mboweni announced a flat lining of medical tax credits, which is expected to generate additional revenue of R1bn in 2019/20. Spending on the NHI programme will increase at an average annual rate of 36.6%, from R1.2bn in 2018/19 to R3bn in 2021/22.
McHugh adds that it is further critical that resources are earmarked to help deliver a fully functioning, world-class public healthcare system, both in terms of infrastructure and service delivery. To this end, it is notable that the 2019 budget has allocated funds to combat diseases like malaria. Figures released by the World Health Organisation (WHO) show that the number of malaria deaths reached 435,000 globally in 2017, with the African region accounting for 92% of malaria cases and 93% of malaria deaths, during this period.
“The bad news as far as the consumer is concerned, is that you will not be able to claim more tax back for your medical aid contribution than in 2018, and it is unlikely that the 2020 budget will increase tax credits either. As the situation stands, principal members and the first dependent on a medical scheme continue to enjoy a monthly tax credit of R310, which reduces to R209 for additional dependents,” explains McHugh.
Impact of VAT increase
When VAT was increased last year, while not impacting medical aid contributions directly at the time, it did result in higher treatment costs, which increased claims costs and led to higher-than-inflation contribution increases among most schemes for 2019. Fortunately, this year’s budget didn’t include a further increase in VAT, which should bode well for 2020 medical aid increases.
“While South Africa finds ways to fund public healthcare, private healthcare consumers will increasingly need to use their health and active lifestyle as an asset, making use of innovative products in the market that assist one in making healthcare funding more affordable,” concludes McHugh.
Encouragingly, government is increasing funding for South Africa’s healthcare professionals, having acknowledged the need for more doctors and nurses. Mboweni announced that R2.8bn has been reprioritised for a new human resources grant and R1bn for medial interns. Another R1bn has been added to raise the wages of community health workers, who will earn R3,500 per month.
