On Saturday, Finance and Economic Development Minister Mthuli Ncube announced a reduction in import tariffs on basic commodities.

Ncube conceded that the prices of basic goods are now beyond the reach of many hence citizens with free funds can now buy their groceries from other countries. Said Ncube:

To further ensure that citizens have access to affordable basic commodities, in the face of recent substantial price increases in the shops, the government hereby opens up imports of basic commodities by citizens, through the lowering of import tariffs and other accompanying measures. This is with immediate effect.

Those with free funds are, with immediate effect, permitted to make use of these funds and other resources to import basic commodities.
