The ANC is set to meet with a DA delegation TODAY, in the continiuing effort to break the deadlock over the 0.5 percentage point VAT increase that some parties, including the DA, which is the second biggest party in the government of national unity (GNU), are opposed to. The ANC says it is pushing for a formal, rules-based agreement to legally bind parties to support future parliamentary motions with the ultimate aim of stabilising the coalition government and avoid future fallouts. The ANC has already met with several parties including the PAC, ActionSA, BOSA, UDM , IFP and the EFF. Talks with the Freedom Front Plus are slated for TOMORROW.  It is not clear at this stage whether and when there will be meetings with the MKP. These meetings will mark the end of the week's engagements, with the overall process expected to conclude next week. To discuss this Bongiwe Zwane spoke to political analyst, Dr Levy Ndou
