# Deputy Defence minister Bantu Holomisa has stressed that implementing the 2015 Defence Review is a national security priority. Speaking at the CSIR International Convention Centre in Pretoria, Holomisa highlighted the SANDF’s funding shortages, aging equipment, and internal security threats. Financial constraints have stalled the review’s progress, posing risks to national security. He urged stronger disaster response, security operations, and public-private partnerships to modernise the defence force:
