Ramaphosa: Govt working to ease load shedding burden on essential services
Updated | By AFP
President Cyril Ramaphosa says the government plans to take steps to ensure that healthcare facilities, police stations and public schools are less affected by load shedding.

Ramaphosa was responding to the latest high court ruling on the sidelines of the COP28 summit in Dubai on Saturday.
The Pretoria High Court has ordered Electricity Minister Kgosientsho Ramokgopa to exempt essential services from power cuts.
He has until the end of January 2024, to do so.
The court also ruled that load shedding was unconstitutional and a violation of basic human rights.
Ramaphosa says they are working on lessening the burden.
"We want our schools and hospitals to have the requisite amount of energy, and there will be moments when we have load shedding that affects certain portions of society negatively.
