When President Mokweetsi Masisi and his Cabinet addressed the media on Wednesday, the hottest topic on the day was the extension of entertainment hours and the possible reduction of the alcohol levy.

To that end, he promised to work hand in hand with the entertainment and arts sector as well as the alcohol trade industry to seek to review the current policies. “We will continue to engage electorates before we decide. The consultation process has already began because we are trying to build a consensus,” he said.

Masisi was quick to highlight that there has to be empirical objective evidence before they can review the trading hours.
