Comrades, I have learnt that the president (cde Kgalema Mothlanthe) had accented the bill of NYDA into law.
I have my own reservation with this legislation as it stands currently. It doesn't address the matter of a unitary institution that will advance youth development. That means, we will have a federal system where provinces and municipality can implement deferent system, whether working or not. This has a negative impact in running other provinces. If Gauteng province has a surplus, they can't give it to eastern cape because they are not liable to develop young people south Africa generally but young people in Gauteng only. Distribution of resources will be continuously be skewed on the basis of the budget of the province. This is another factor that will continuously subject one province to have a lot of young people flocking in unnecessary because young people will always be looking for greener pastures. The remainder of the province will have budgets without young people to serve. Contrary, a unitary institution will invest in a province based on the need rather than the pocket of the province. It will remove the responsibility from the premiers and mayors to determine what is relevant for young people. The challenge will be to monitor investment in areas where those who are taking decision don't have interest in. mis-representation by individuals who will not want certain projects to succeed, and so forth. But more young people will be benefiting than in the current arrangement. I hope that the president will appoint people who will not develop symptoms of greediness Amandla, wonder Disclaimer This e-mail and any attachments transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom it is addressed.
