The Deputy Minister in The Presidency responsible for Performance Monitoring, Evaluation, Ms Dina Pule, will tomorrow meet with the South African Local Government Executive Council (SALGA). This is the continuation of her tour of provinces which started on 9 March 2011. The visits aim to sway provinces towards the implementation of the monitoring and evaluation system at the coalface of service delivery.

As part of the visits, Deputy Minister Pule will meet with the Provincial Executive Council to:
- Share the approach and the process to be followed in monitoring and evaluating performance
- Communicate institutional arrangements in order to implement the performance monitoring and evaluation system effectively and emphasise government’s focus on the five key priority areas as identified by the President in his State of the Nation Address.
