The newly appointed KwaZulu-Natal MEC for Public Works and Infrastructure, Martin Meyer, says there will be no more “nice-to-haves”, as priority will be given to the needs of the public.

He wants the government to save money by using its own buildings for office space, instead of renting high-end business premises for senior managers and other technocrats.

Meyer addressed reporters on the sidelines of a meeting with top officials in his department in Durban on Monday.
