Western Cape MEC of Social Development Albert Fritz said the department has improved the quality of and the expansion of service delivery through the province.
This is after the department received a
clean audit outcome for the 2013/2014 period.
MEC Fritz said the department has introduced several initiatives that
are paving the way nationally and internationally.
Fritz said we did three things that we
thought was necessary to do. Firstly we made sure that every single NGO that is
fund reports properly to us with verifiable information. Secondly every cent
that we paid out from the tax payer’s money to anyone was accounted for. Lastly
we looked at our own services as the department and to see how do we improve
the reporting and service delivery systems within the department.
Meanwhile MEC Albert Fritz said there is
still much to be done when it comes to service delivery especially for the poor
and vulnerable in the province.
He added that efforts by the department to
deal with service delivery issues is paying off but more can be done.
MEC Frtiz said we want to get to a point as
the department where we can say proudly that we are servicing the poor,
vulnerable and the people that need us most.
“We do not have time to still waste when
the needs of our community are so big that we need urgent interventions” Fritz
added.
