Sorry that I did not receive this or see it before. It's important that the movement makes nominations to this central planning commission. Not that the closing date is 10 April (Chris Hani Anniversary), and in between now and then is Easter. Therefore it will be necessary for people to work fast if they want to nominate, or to be nominated.
_____ The Presidency, Pretoria, 10 March 2015 Call for nominations to serve on the National Planning Commission The Minister of Planning, Monitoring and Evaluation and Chairperson of the National Planning Commission has today launched a call for nominations of individuals to serve on the National Planning Commission. The first National Planning Commission was appointed by President Jacob Zuma in 2010 for a period of five years. The term of office of the current commissioners will expire in May 2015. The President intends to appoint commissioners for a further five year period. With the National Development Plan now adopted and broadly supported across sectors of society, the focus has now shifted to implementation. Government has developed a Medium Terms Strategic Framework (2014 - 2019) which constitutes the initial building blocks toward the 2030 goals. Other sectors are encouraged to make their own concrete commitments to implement the National Development Plan. The focus of the new commission will be on advising Government on how best to implement the National Development Plan and to develop detailed plans in selected sectors that require focussed attention to drive economy growth, radical economic transformation and the sustainable development of our country and its people. We need people with skills in areas such as: infrastructure development, urban and regional planning, energy, agriculture and food security, education and training, health, public policy and governance, community engagement, economics, finance, budgeting and banking, ICT, telecommunications and broadcasting, business and industry, water and sanitation, science and technology, social cohesion and nation building, futures research and scenario planning, climate change and youth development. The nominations will open for a 30 day period from 10 March 2015 until 10 April 2015. Details on how to submit your nominations, eligibility criteria and nomination forms are available at www.thepresidency.gov.za or http://www.thepresidency-dpme.gov.za/news/Pages/NPC-Nomination-Form.aspx.
