The
Premier's office in Northern Cape successfully organized a Provincial
Inter-Sectoral Meeting yesterday, 29 August, 2024, aimed at enhancing the functionality
and sustainability of Thusong Service Centers. This meeting, supported by
Provincial Service Delivery Departments, follows decisions made at the National
Inter-Sectoral Steering Committee meetings held in Kimberley in April
2023 and Bloemfontein in April 2024. Reports indicates that the forum is designed to support
municipalities and Center Managers in delivering essential government services
to rural and underserved communities. It also serves as a platform for
sharing best practices, achievements, and challenges related to the Thusong
Service Centers, which were established to improve access to services and
information for historically marginalized citizens.
