Question NW2846 to the Minister of Home Affairs
11 December 2020 - NW2846
Montwedi, Mr Mk to ask the Minister of Home Affairs
(a) By what date is it envisaged that his department will fill in vacant positions in De Aar Home Affairs Office and (b) what measures have been put in place to serve the people in Plakkerskamp in Renosterberg Local Municipality, Northern Cape?
Reply:
a) There is no post identified to be filled as critical in the De Aar office as currently all vacant posts are unfunded. It should be highlighted that there is currently a moratorium for filling of posts in the Department due to the budgetary constraints on compensation of employees as per the recent announcement by National Treasury.
b) The Renosterberg municipality is one of four local municipalities that is serviced by the De Aar office. These areas are serviced through Mobile office outreach visits. The mobile itinerary is communicated to the Community Development Workers(CDW’s) and the Department of Social Services amongst other government entities on a monthly basis. This assists us to identify clients in need of our services. The mobile itinerary for December 2020 is as communicated, below:
