Updated | By Nushera Soodyal
President Cyril Ramaphosa says the country’s economy is on the mend.

He says trade figures have shown further evidence of recovery.
Ramaphosa tabled the Presidency's budget in Parliament on Thursday.
"We have been leading the drive to reconstruct the nation's economy in a manner that is inclusive, and that leaves no one behind. In this year's State of the Nation Address, I outlined our key priorities for the year ahead.
"These priorities are to grow the economy and create jobs, fight corruption, make communities safer, build better lives for all our people, and make government work for the people of our country."

On state capture, the president said they're already working through the recommendations of the reports released so far by the commission of inquiry into state capture.
"We will only have the full measure of the work required when we receive the final report from the chief justice. Taking these recommendations forward requires the highest political will and commitment from us all, the members of this House included."
