JOHANNESBURG – The Democratic Alliance (DA) is preparing for a second day of its policy conference as it tries to consolidate its position on the socio-political problems of South Africa.
The conference got off to a good start with delegates voting unanimously for various policies, including a major decision that the party will rely on evidence-based decision making.
The virtual meeting began on Saturday and its objective is to align the opinions of the organization with those of its leaders and members.
The district attorney has resolved that the ideas and positions that the party implements must be able to withstand scrutiny and be open to modifications in the face of the facts.
The party has been in crisis for some time and some of its top leaders, including Mmusi Maimane, resigned due to political clashes.
Now, the district attorney said that before any decision is made, the principles and evidence would be implemented in decision making.
The party also adopted a social market economy, a path that could cope with current government policies.
Delegates are expected to debate more policy issues Sunday with robust debates on the economy expected to feature prominently.
