Gerhard Koornhof

Gerhard Koornhof (born 1951 or 1952) is a South African politician and economist who serves as the Parliamentary Counsellor to President Cyril Ramaphosa. When Ramaphosa served as deputy president, Koornhof was his parliament counsellor. An MP since 1994, Koornhof currently represents the African National Congress, though he previously represented United Democratic Movement between 1999 and 2003 and the National Party/New National Party before that. Quotes Ramaphosa’s apparent determination to ram this Bill through apparently to stick it to the DA, would be a violation of his constitutional duty to this country. We, therefore, also welcome the announcement by business leaders that they are considering legal action against Ramaphosa if he persists along this route,” You are kindly reminded that the DA participated in the Parliamentary process related to this Bill. The Bill was thereafter approved by both Houses, in a Parliamentary process in which the DA participated.” For too long, the ANC has viewed economic growth with suspicion, and the people who create jobs as the enemy. With the DA in government, investor sentiment will soar and our new Budget will kickstart economic growth and job creation,” Only a government anchored by the DA and built upon our track record of job creation and prudent financial management can protect the sustainability of social grants well into the future. A Parliament that works for the people. A private electricity market to end loadshedding. A capable State free from cadre deployment and corruption. An independent crime-busting entity and stronger local policing. A budget that creates jobs and protects social grants External links Category:Living people Category:Politicians from South Africa Category:Economists from South Africa
