On the 10th of May 2018, Minister of Communications, Ms Nomvula Mokonyane and Deputy Minister Pinkie Kekana will table the department’s 2018/19 Budget Vote in Parliament.

Through the Budget Vote speech the Minister will demonstrate how the budget will be utilised to support annual strategic targets to ensure that the department delivers on its mandate.

The Minister will also report back on the work done by the department, its entities as well as GCIS in the past financial year.

The Inter-Ministerial Committee (IMC) appointed by Cabinet to establish facts on the ground in the North West Province has noted with concern media reports insinuating that the provincial executive has been uncooperative in particular the Premier.  The media reports are not only misleading but also far from the actual experience of the IMC.
