2. National Department of Human Settlements Agenda Introduction Macro Indicators Programmes APP Structure Way Forward

3. Background Based on a review of the first three years, the HDA is undergoing a process of transformation as we prepare for the new financial year The Agency undertook this intensive planning process due to an identified need to sharpen our focus around land assembly, as well as the way we respond to the needs of the sector The strategy arises from discussions with the Board, Exco, Manco and in the different HDA departments and regions The strategy has been approved by the HDA Board

4. Highlights of new strategy The most important shift will be the development of a national sector-wide land assembly strategy in partnership with organs of state and other key sector stakeholders to sharpen our focus and drive delivery. The strategy will ensure that well-located land is identified and released for development viz. ‘Vibrant communities living on well-located land’. Shift in focus from delivery from head office to a strong presence in the regions. Performance and delivery are now the key focus for our teams in Johannesburg, Limpopo, Western Cape, Eastern Cape, Northern Cape, North West and Free State. The revised plan provides a secure basis for sustained growth and delivery and ensures that the agency is aligned with priority programmes and initiatives of NDHS, the most important being the Outcome 8 of the Delivery Agreements.
