*'Subsidies Always Work Better If They Are Targeted'* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?jr Finance and Economic Development Minister Mthuli Ncube on Monday said the roller meal subsidy will now be targeted at the beneficiaries for it to achieve the intended goals. Ncube added that targeting the beneficiaries will eliminate the abuse that has been identified with the subsidy. He said: ---------- Latest itel A06 on Pindula: 32GB storage, 4GB RAM $69 USD WhatsApp: +263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 ---------- > Subsidies always work better if they are targeted, if the person who is vulnerable is identified and receives that subsidy directly. > It cuts off the abuse that has been identified with the subsidy. The second point is we want some kind of voucher system or cash transfer system that will just do that, which is targeted at the beneficiary. In November last year, the government introduced the subsidy on roller meal after the prices had gone through the roof because of an acute shortage of maize. The price for a 10kg bag of roller meal was initially set at $50 but was increased to $70 last week. However, the product remains scarce on the market. *More: The Herald* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
