    No, they don't. The policies may be used as a smokescreen to mask corruption, but that is not synonymous with condonation. Either way, it's not a policy problem - it's a human problem. Abolishing B-BBEE, etc. won't stop the corruption.

    Greig, if the policies are applied correctly and what they were intended to to, it will be "fine". But the person who makes the "call" can see if the company is white owned or not and then price will play no part. You can see this daily in the media. so where is the fairness.

    Price will always play a role. Regardless, corruption and incompetence is not a policy issue - it's a human issue. People confuse the two all the time and then argue that the policies should be abolished even though they don't fully understand them in the first place. Which is exactly how the last few pages in this forum thread originated.

    To be clear: I'm not saying that B-BBEE, EE, AA, etc. are perfect policies. I'm just saying that they aren't responsible for many of the reasons cited for their withdrawal.
