ZA's trade ministry has announced it will oppose the provisional liquidation of Tongaat Hulett Limited , citing the potential for widespread disruption across the sugar value chain and the cane-growing sector. Minister Parks Tau confirmed that while the ministry can participate in the legal hearings, it does not have the power to unilaterally stop the liquidation process. This move comes after Vision Group announced that a multi-year rescue process for the sugar producer had failed.
