The National Youth Development Agency says South African businesses are failing to stimulate youth development.

 NYDA`s Chief Executive Officer  Steven Ngubeni says that over the past three years, the private and public sector have done little to implement the measures outlined in the document.

Chairperson Andile Lungisa released a set of guidelines, developed by the agency in a bid to monitor and enforce the introduction of the National Youth Policy endorsed by Cabinet in 2009.

The policy document contains commitments by government and other bodies on services that would be rolled out across the country for youth development.

Lungisa said that the private sector in South Africa has not really been contributing to youth development.
