12. Summary of Performance for Quarter 1
During the first quarter reporting period ( 1 April – 30 June 2018).
69% of the targets were fully achieved, while 11% were partially achieved and 20% of the targets were not achieved
The reasons for non-achievement of 20% of the targets includes targets that DSD had to reconsider in line with the new trajectory of its reconfirmed mandate. This has implications for an errata on the APP: among others these targets included programmes such as:
Delays on the finalization of the alignment of the Human Resource Management Strategy that had to be in line with the overall Sector Wide Social Development Strategy;
DSD had to reconfirm and reposition itself on its role and functions on the entities that reports to the Minister of DSD: implications for the review of the legislations that establishes SASSA, NDA as well as CDA;
DSD reconsidered to submit the Social Assistance Amendment Bill, the Social Crime on Victims Support Services Bill for an errata as well as Operation Phakisa, Programme Mikondzo, and Development of Community Based Workers Programme
