Meanwhile also today the Director General Mkuseli Apleni will unveil the Cape Town’s Barrack Street offices where members of the Portfolio committee on Home Affairs are expected to apply for the smart ID cards. 

Departmental Spokesperson Ronnie Mamoepa said the department has been engaged in a process of revamping infrastructure in offices across the country to enable us to roll the smart ID cards to the public.
