Cabinet approves Medium Term Development Plan and National Communication Strategy Framework

Cabinet approves Medium Term Development Plan and National Communication Strategy Framework

Cabinet has approved the Medium Term Development Plan (MTDP)  for the period 2024-2029, which outlines key priorities for the 7th administration. 

The MTDP builds on the National Development Plan, the Statement of Intent of the Government of National Unity, and the consensus reached during the Cabinet Lekgotla held on 29-30 January 2025. 

Additionally, the MTDP incorporates the three strategic priorities outlined by President Cyril Ramaphosa in his Opening of Parliament Adress on 18 July 2024. 

“The plan guides government’s initiatives to create a more inclusive country that lives up to the commitments of the Government of National Unity. 

“It aims, among others, to ensure inclusive economic growth, reduce unemployment, poverty, and the rising cost of living as well as to ensure a capable, developmental, and ethical state,” Cabinet said in a statement. 

National Communication Strategy Framework (NCSF) 

Cabinet has also approved the National Communication Strategy Framework (NCSF) for the period 2024-2029 for implementation across all spheres of government. 

The NCSF forms part of the ongoing work to consolidate and enhance government-wide communication system, in support of the implementation of the Medium Term Development Plan 2024-2029 as envisaged in the Government Communication Policy, approved by Cabinet in 2018 which is currently under review.

The NCSF responds to the expectation that government communication must be coherent, improve public trust and investor confidence, foster unity and social cohesion and mobilise citizens’ participation. 

This is part of ongoing efforts to encourage South Africans to use information to improve their lives and take advantage of socio-economic opportunities to contribute to the development of our country. – SAnews.gov.za
