South Africa's Treasury is again inviting members of the public to give Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan tips on how they want the country's money to be spent.

The minister's annual Budget speech, which will take place on 22 February, maps out state spending, tax and borrowing plans for the next three years, while also describing how the government will raise money and how it will be spent.

Run throughout the year, the campaign ensures active participation in government programmes, especially matters related to the economy.

Through the campaign, the public gets an opportunity to send their tips to Minister Gordhan on what they think the government's spending priorities should be.

The campaign helps to ensure that government spending is in line with what is expected by the South African public, and to gauge public opinion on issues such as education, social services, health, job creation and taxes.
