6/3/11 Introduction This annual performance plan seeks to respond to strategic objectives and to achieve the outcomes as detailed in the government’s Medium-Term Strategic Framework (MTSF). The Department will implement a plan to contribute to the government-wide programme of creating five (5) million new jobs over the next ten years, as outlined in the New Growth Path Framework (NGPF). Our main anchor programmes include – the Regional Bulk Infrastructure, – the Accelerated Community Infrastructure Programme (ACIP), – Support to Resource Poor Farmers (RPFs), – the national transfers of schemes to municipalities, and – the “War on Water Leaks” programme designed for youth development. – Major contribution through our Working for Water and Working on Fire Programmes. 22
