Deputy Minister for the Public Service and Administration, Ms Ayanda Dlodlo, MP to showcase the Cooperative Inland Waterways Safety Programme (CIWSP) at the Vanderkloof Dam during National Water Week
Public Service and Administration Deputy Minister, Ayanda Dlodlo, will showcase the Cooperative Inland Waterways Safety Programme (CIWSP) at the Vanderkloof Dam during the launch of National Water Week.
This programme is an initiative of the Centre for Public Service Innovation (CPSI), a national government component within the Public Service and Administration portfolio.
The CPSI is tasked with unearthing, encouraging, rewarding, showcasing, piloting and facilitating the replication and mainstreaming of innovation in the public sector in response to identified challenges.
The CPSI is supporting a multi-departmental working group that is developing an innovative approach to inland water and safety integrity. The project, the Cooperative Inland Waterways Safety Programme (CIWSP), was initiated out of the need to find an innovative, practical and cost-effective way to implement South African Maritime Safety Authority’s (SAMSA) vessel safety regulations on inland waterways and to implement responsible water use within the broader socio-economic context of the country.
