7 February 2007
Government's Programme of Action for 2006 has been updated with respect to
progress in implementation and is available on Government Online at https://www.gov.za.
A new Programme of Action for 2007 will be developed based on the decisions
of the Cabinet Lekgotla held from 23 to 25 January and the President's State of
the Nation Address in Parliament on 9 February 2007.
The information in this update, in particular statistical information, was
gathered during January and in most cases refers to the situation at the end of
December and in some cases earlier than that. More up-to-date information in
various instances will be provided in the State of the Nation Address and the
Parliamentary Media Briefing Week when Ministers will be elaborating on the
government programme. A final update of the 2006 programme will be published at
the same time as the new programme for 2007.
The publication of Government's Programme of Action and its regular updating
enables the public to follow progress in implementation and ensure that South
Africans take active part both in the monitoring and evaluation of government
work and in changing their lives for the better. Government encourages the
public to assess our work on the basis of the concrete commitments that we have
made, in pursuit of a better life for all.
