- COSATU argues that the government's wage bill and headcount are not excessive, stating that the wage bill has actually decreased over the past 20 years.
- They made this point during a public hearing on the division of Revenue Bill, where they also called for increased funding for areas like education and infrastructure.
- COSATU emphasized that the wage bill is not as high as some claim, pointing out that it has decreased from 40% to 31% of the budget over the past two decades, and that the headcount has remained stable since 1994 despite the population nearly doubling.
