The Minister in the Presidency, Mr Mondli Gungubele, together with the Minister of Public Works and Infrastructure, Ms Patricia De Lille and the Minister of Employment and Labour, Mr Thulas Nxesi, will lead a media briefing to reflect on the outcomes of Phase One of the Presidential Employment Stimulus and further outline Phase Two.
