This session of questions for oral replies took place a year since the declaration of the national state of disaster and its negative impact on the economy. Deputy President Mabuza highlighted to parliamentarians that the 4
th Quarter Labour Force Survey of 2020, found that that the Covid-19 pandemic has had a negative impact on the economy and employment prospects for young people.
 
The Deputy President said these job losses have been concentrated among a range of already vulnerable groups affecting in the main, individuals in the poorest households, less skilled and low-wage, informal workers, those with transient employment or persistent non-employment histories. In this regard, the Deputy President called for urgent, innovative and coordinated strategies to be crafted towards dealing with poverty and inequality and achieve social cohesion by developing youth, women and people with disabilities.
