Journalist: My question is to the Department of Correctional Services and Minister Ndebele. We have seen in the past few weeks the reports about those who benefitted from the remission of sentence a number of them have been rearrested for re-offending. I just wanted to find out whether the cluster discussed this and what was the outcome and if there is anything that the cluster identified as a problem which leads to those people who have been released to commit offences again and be rearrested within a couple of days. Thank you.

Journalist: It is two weeks now that General Phiyega has been on the job; just your impressions how is it going? The last time we spoke was at her welcoming to the new job. We were told she was going to be meeting all the relevant people, SAPS management what has your engagement been like so far? How’s it going with her? Is she fitting in well?

Journalist: I’ve got three questions the first one is to Minister Radebe and it is regarding the crimes that were identified within the cluster you know the 24 people that were caught. Can we get an indication of the examples of what type of crimes you know and possible consequences for these people that have been caught? The second one is bit a different one you know obviously this week being the ANC policy conference in your opinion what do you think will emerge as one of the biggest justice and constitutional matter that will be discussed. And the third one is to the Department of Home Affairs; in terms of the root cause of the identity document duplications are there any officials within Home Affairs that have been caught for this? Or have you been able to clamp down on the main cause of why there are so many duplicate identity documents, 6000 seems quite a big number from January.

Journalist: I wanted to ask if the Minister of Home Affairs can shed some light on the new regulations that is going to penalise late registrations.

Journalist: Minister Radebe you claimed a very high conviction rates but those conviction rates are based on the number of cases that go to court. Would you comment please on what the conviction rate would be if millions of serious criminal cases didn’t just simply fall away? Thank you.

Minister Jeff Radebe: We are now joined by the Minister of Home Affairs. The issue of parolees will be addressed by Minister Ndebele. How is the new general, I think she is cool. I personally can attest to her capability and ability having worked with her while I was the Minister of Public Enterprises and it was within the stable of Public Enterprises in Transnet. So I do know that since she assumed her office she has gone in with a bang having addressed a meeting of senior officials in Durban with the Minister of Police and Deputy Minister and I do know that today she is going to be appointing an acting hand for crime intelligence. So I think it is a sign for things to come.

On the issue of policy conference this is not a forum of the ANC this is a JCPS Cluster if you want to know about policy please come to Luthuli House at 13:00 this afternoon where the secretary general and myself will be addressing the media on issues that pertain to the policy conference.
On the issue of identity document duplications the Minister of Home Affairs will address so them and also on new regulations and new registration.

On the issue of conviction rates if millions of criminals were brought to court happily as we have reported not for the first time that on serious crimes we are seeing a trend of the reduction of these serious offences. So the possibility of millions of offenders clocking our courts I must say as the chair of the cluster I find that probability so remote that it will not be considered. So Minister Ndebele and Minister Dlamini-Zuma.

Minister Nkosozana Dlamini-Zuma: Thanks Ministers and good morning to the Ministers, colleagues and senior officials and ladies and gentleman of the media. The origin of duplicates is multi-fold the major one came when all the different bantu stance and others were brought together into one register because as you know we didn’t carry the same books others carried book of life or something and others carried “dom pass” so when that register was now put together as some of the numbers were duplicated that is the first origin. The second one is when somebody actually some people just steal somebody’s identity book that’s why we are moving from this book and take out the photo and put their photo and then it is their identity book but they are using somebody else’s detail. So when they use this book they will find that when they use somebody will say but somebody else is using this book and then both books are frozen so some of it is just pure fraudulent activity. And the third one which is not happening anymore was just the corruption where people would use somebody’s identity document because as you know when you get a birth certificate it already has your identity number but you only apply for the identity book at the age of 16 years so that number lies dormant for 16 years. And so at some stage there was some corruption where people would sell this identity numbers knowing that these people are still young so they would not come and claim them. They give them to people who then use them in their id’s and they come and claim that their birth date was written wrongly when actually they have stolen somebody else’s identity number that was not theirs anyway. So we have tried to stop these happening again so they aren’t happening accept those where people steal the book. So what we have done those that come to us we try and resolve but what we have done now is to analyse all the numbers that we see in our system and whether we see duplicates even if people haven’t come to us we have advertised this information because we want them to come forward before they have a problem so that we can resolve it proactively because up to now we are only resolving those who are coming forward. So we would like you to also assist us as members of the media to really drum this message that people must look in the newspaper if their names are there they must come to us so that they don’t have this problem of duplication. We have also made sure that it doesn’t happen again at Home Affairs because we’ve got vigilant standard procedures now before one person could use all functions so they could create a birth certificate number, they could produce an identity document, they could scan the dormant numbers so now we have limited what functions people have. So you can’t have functions that can assist you to go through the whole value chain so that even if you steal a number you can’t use it because somebody else unless they are working as a syndicate, somebody else has the function of producing the identity document. We can now have a paper trail of who did what before it was very difficult to have a paper trail because we were only using passwords which people were exchanging and then you find when you go on a paper trail you find that person was in London on the day that happened but it was their password that was used. Now we use both the password and your fingerprint so you can’t exchange fingerprints so that part is now okay. And where you remove the photo and put yours it is only a matter of time when we have our smart id that is not going to be possible because the photo won’t be removable from that id, so that’s the issue of duplicates.

Then the regulations we amended the law and introduced penalties for people who don’t register their babies because the law says you must register your baby within 30 days and there is no reason why people are not registering their babies in 30 days because most of the hospitals are now linked to Home Affairs. You don’t even have to go to Home Affairs offices you can get your birth certificate as you leave the maternity ward and for those hospitals that are not linked we send officials to go and assist the mothers and then we also go with mobile units to places where we are not reachable by hospital or offices. So we feel there is absolutely no reason now why people are not registering their babies within the stipulated time in the law but because nothing was happening whether you registered or not whether you came at 18 for the first time there was no penalty so people just continued like that now the state has done all it can to meet the citizens halfway to make it easier to register. Now we are introducing penalties they will be gazetted very soon, we’ve spend a year doing consultation with our stakeholder forums so that when we do publish them they have been consulted there has been adequate consultation but there will be penalties now if you don’t register the baby within 30 days. This is very critical in terms of our population register a secured population register is only secure if there is one point of entry at birth once you allow points of entry any year, 60year old is entering our population register for the first time, you don’t know who is supposed to be in that register and that is why we get mafia people entering our population register becoming citizens and all that. So we want to secure our population register but also the grief that is visited on children whose parents maybe died before they registered them is very great. That young man who passed away it was precisely that he didn’t have a birth certificate, he didn’t have parents with him his grandparents had passed away and now trying to establish who he is with Home Affairs without all these relatives whereas if they have registered at birth, it doesn’t matter what happens thereafter at least we know you in our population register and you won’t have the sort of problems that people have when they try and get an identity document when they were never registered. Thank you.

Minister Sbu Ndebele: Yes it is correctly within a month following the President’s announcement on remission of sentences 43 of those identified prisoners are back in jail. What we can say is that one re-offender is one too many it is unfortunate that some of the offenders who benefited from the special remission did not use the second chance that they were afforded. As of the 20^th of June 2012 only two of those offenders were found guilty of again committing crimes whilst 69 alleged re-offenders were also reported. It needs to be mentioned that the special remission was primarily granted to qualifying offenders, probationers and parolees as a humane gesture from the President of the Republic on the 18^th celebration of freedom day while this was not the motivating factor in the decision of the President to grant a special remission it is a significant reduction that vastly improves the humane conditions of detention and the ability of the staff to ensure safety and security of inmates as well as to focus on the rehabilitation of offenders. Furthermore all countries across the world have a system for political leadership of the country be it a king, a President, Prime Minister or Cabinet to grant special remission of sentence either to celebrate an event in the life of the country or to address the conditions of rehabilitation. Realistically speaking it would have been optimistic to have expected that no one of the offenders released from the correctional centres would not relapse into crime bearing in mind that all of them have previously committed crimes for which they were sentenced to incarceration. In the same way it would be optimistic to think that every single person that leaves a correctional centre has benefited from the corrective and development programmes he or she was subjected to while in prison. I think one must also emphasise the issue that the correctional facilities are more than 34% overcrowded which is a serious issue that needs to be addressed not only by correctional services alone not only by this cluster alone but by all of us community included. Thank you.

Minister Jeff Radebe: I just want to add one point on the issue of the re-apprehended parolees if you recall that after the decision by the President 40 365 inmates were released and only 71 have been re-arrested in terms of statistics that represents about 0.18% of all those who were released. Some mathematicians have said that if you put it nearer to the next decimal it is about 0% but the point being it is a very legible number compared to 40 365 people. I forgot to answer a question about those in the cluster what kind of offences they have committed. They range from theft; fraud etc and all of them have been in prison sentenced to imprisonment for that variety of crimes. Thanks.

Journalist: This one goes to Minister Radebe just under output 2 you spoken about where you are seeing a continued increase in the number of cases against the state. I just wanted clarity in terms of the appointment of a solicited general is there now a move to have one person handle all the cases that are being brought against the state or more than anything just clarity on that one. And also in terms under case management you speak about how there was a reduction in the backlog of cases on court roles to 34 926 but you don’t actually say what the actual improvement is this is the current number where it is standing at but what is that reduction from the previous year. Thank you.

Journalist: You’ve dropped quite a big one there Minister Radebe on Phiyega’s announcement today of an acting crime intelligence head? Can we get any further information on that? When, how, (laughing)

Journalist: While the stats on crime show a downward trend other stats on the perception of corruption within the security cluster show the opposite. For example earlier this month a survey was released saying that 62% of 18-34year olds believed the police were corrupt. And 66% said they did not believe the police would come to their aid in situations of an emergency. Another example is you know in Khayalitsha there has been a breakdown in relations between the police and the community leading to about nine young men supposedly criminals being necklaced by members of the community. So I guess on the anti-corruption efforts aimed at the security cluster given some of this goings on the cases involving high ranking senior members of the police. What is being done to combat corruption especially in light of these recent events?

Journalist: This is for Minister Dlamini-Zuma you mentioned the penalties for none or late registration of baby births. Can you just give some clarity on what those penalties could be a fine, imprisonment? Thanks.

Journalist: Minister Radebe you had high praise for General Phiyega and her predecessors. Could you give us some indication of what message do you think it sends to South Africa and the world that Mr Bheki Cele went to court to support a group of men accused of very serious crimes.

Minister Jeff Radebe: I think the one on penalties it would be back to the Minister of Home Affairs.

On the issue from you E-news, solicitor general let me just explain what is going to happen. In terms of the Department of Justice in the issue of court cases against the state or by the state we’ve got two arms the criminal side which is handled by the National Prosecuting Authority which is headed by a national director of public prosecutions. So whenever criminals have to be charged the NDPP has to take those decisions so there is one head to shoot. On the civil side our system is not in our view appropriate for the challenges that we face in South Africa today, you have proliferation of state attorneys in Pretoria, Johannesburg, Bloemfontein, Durban etc, there is no one centre where this decision are taken. So this reform of the issues of civil litigation is what we are trying to attain, so the issue therefore of one person which we are going to be calling solicitor general is what is going to be done in order to effectively co-ordinate civil litigation or against the state so that there is one person who is responsible for this, that’s how it’s going to happen. We are working with the Minister of Public Service and Administration to speed up that process but in the mean time we are going to be appointing an interim head on the basis of current legislation the Attorneys Act of 1959 or somewhere there.

On a case management if you read our report we are comparing with the previous years in terms of ensuring, I’ve just been given the figures in 2010/2011 the reduction was from 37 034 to 34 926 in the financial year 2011/2012. On the issues of perception of crime we have just given you the perception in the period under review currently so what has happened currently we are going to be reporting that in our next reporting cycle in about three years time.

On the issue of the appointment of the acting head of crime intelligence, I am sure the office of General Phiyega will be making their own announcement so you are advised to contact Ms Mbatha they will give you the details of where the statement will be issued but it will not be issued in this forum right now. On the penalties of late registration I have said Minister Dlamini-Zuma will make that input.

On the former national commissioner being in court we are not going to respond to that because his no longer a member of the police service so the question should be directed at Mr Cele himself.

Minister Nkosozana Dlamini-Zuma: The penalties will be files we didn’t think that mothers should leave their babies and go to prison but we thought they should be fined if they don’t register their babies according to the law. Also the other penalties is going to be that if you come at an age 15years, 20years to register for the first time it is going to take an awful long time to get your birth certificate whereas if you register within 30 days you will get it on the spot. Thank you.

Programme Director: Thank you very much that brings us to the end of this media briefing.

End of briefing

 

Justice, Crime Prevention and Security (JCPS) Cluster media briefing

25 June

Statement by Minister of Justice and Constitutional Development Jeff Radebe

Ministers
Deputy Ministers
Directors-General
Members of the Media
Ladies and gentlemen

Our Constitution envisions a society where all South Africans, irrespective of their race, gender and creed, live in a society free of crime, intimidation and corruption and where economic activities are not withered down by greed and illegal elements. The Justice Crime Prevention and Security Cluster is constantly strengthening its systems and interventions to ensure that all people in South Africa are and feel safe.

The commemoration of the youth month should remind us all of the pain and anguish that accompanied the struggle for a democratic South Africa. We believe that addressing the challenges of crime and corruption, which remains one of the Government’s top five priorities for the current Medium Term Strategic Framework (MTSF) period, will allow our country, in particular the youth to benefit from the fruits of our democracy.

We congratulate General Mangwashi Riah Phiyega, on her appointment as the first woman to lead the South African Police Service. We are confident that she will build on the foundation laid by her predecessors in our quest to deal with all criminal elements. As the JCPS Cluster we will give her all the support for her to succeed in her responsibilities.

The continued good interaction between the role players in the Cluster and improved coordination efforts has yielded the results we are seeing. In terms of the Outputs of the Delivery Agreement, good progress continued as will be pointed out below in more detail. We continue to call all community members to assist in reporting crime to the police and come forward with evidence as and when they witness wrong doing in their communities. I now give progress as follows:

Performance per Output

Output 1: Reduce overall levels of serious crimes and in particular contact crime

Since the signing of the delivery agreement in 2010, government has put in place various plans aimed at eradicating crime. The significant reduction in serious contact crimes such as murder and robbery with aggravating circumstances is a consequence of the vigorous and strategic interventions by the Justice Crime Prevention and Security Cluster. During Quarter 4 (Jan – March 2012), crime levels in general went down compared to the previous quarter. The overall serious crime went down by 0.5% in the 4th quarter compared to the same period last year. During the period under review, contact crimes were reduced by 1.2% from 307.8 per 100 000 of the population.  

We have intensified detective and intelligence work in order to bring those involved in ATM bombings to book and ensure that they are successfully prosecuted. These heightened detective and intelligence operations will not only be limited to ATM bombings and Trio Crimes, but will continue during 2012/13 covering all serious crime categories.

During 2011/12 the courts increased the number of finalised trio crime prosecutions with 232.1% compared to the 535 cases reported as finalised during the previous year. A total of 1 777 cases comprising of 2 152 trio counts were finalised with a conviction rate of 85.8%. Prosecutors dedicated to Organised Crime finalised a total of 192 trial cases with a conviction rate of 89.1%. The 192 trial cases included 5 racketeering convictions as well as 25 counts of money-laundering.

The NPA has done ground-breaking prosecutions in respect of environmental crimes in the last year. In 66 environmental cases prosecuted, seven sentences of direct imprisonment were handed down. The NPA participated in the multi-disciplinary project to address the plundering of rhinos. During the year 24 cases were finalised with convictions in 20 cases involving 28 accused, a conviction rate of 83%.

The Asset Forfeiture Unit, working closely with the Hawks, did well in its mission to freeze and recover criminal assets. More than R540 million was frozen during the year for the second consecutive year. In addition, R131 million was recovered and paid to the victims of crime and to the Criminal Assets Recovery Account, by far the highest amount ever.

Output 2: An effective Criminal Justice System (CJS)
Transformation of the Justice System

The continued increase of court cases involving the State has highlighted the need for the transformation of State Legal Services to reposition these services to meet the growing demand. There will be an appointment of the Solicitor- General as the head of State Legal Services who will take the ultimate responsibility and accountability for the implementation of the civil litigation policy and strategy. This will facilitate improved coordination of the activities relating to litigation by and against the State through, not only the state attorneys and other legal units in the Department of Justice and Constitutional Development, but also other State departments in general. The introduction of the Alternative Dispute Resolution Mechanism for the civil cases will contribute towards the reduction of backlog civil cases in the legal system.

We continue to work collectively to find lasting solutions to the challenge of sexual violence which is often felt by the most vulnerable people of our country.  It is for this reason that we announced the establishment of a task team to investigate the resuscitation of Sexual Offences Courts which have shown impressive conviction rates in certain parts of the country in the past. The task team will look into practical steps that will ensure that these courts benefit the entire population and not selected communities as was the practice in the piloted sites.

We are encouraged by the decision of the Supreme Court of Appeal which reversed the decision of the Western Cape High Court in the State versus Prins case.  The Western Cape High Court had earlier decided that the failure by the Legislature to specify penalties in respect of certain offences reflected in the  Criminal Law (Sexual Offences and Related Matters) Amendment Act 32 of 2007 (Sexual Offences Act), did not create offences.
 
We wish to thank Supreme Court of Appeal for acting swiftly in enrolling this matter to avert what could have led to thousands of alleged rapists escaping scot free without being called to answer for their awful deeds. We will soon engage with the judiciary, the prosecution and the legal profession and other stakeholders to increase the capacity of the Regional Courts to hear these cases as quickly and practically possible.  Processes are underway to establish the number of sexual offences cases which have been put on hold in order to identify additional capacity that may be required through the case backlog courts.

We are confident that the re-introduction of family violence, child protection and sexual offences units in the police, as well as the establishment of the inter-sectoral task team to look into the viability of prioritising such cases through specialised sexual offences courts. This will ensure that we deal with these heinous crimes effectively.

The approval of the Prevention and Combating of Trafficking in Persons Bill 7 of 2010 by the National Assembly will strengthen the fight against sexual offences and assist in protecting vulnerable people especially Women and Children.

Case management

Efforts to improve the efficiency of the criminal justice system received a major boost in quarter 4 through the adoption of various lower court inter-sectoral case flow management practices and guidelines.

In terms of the case finalisation rate, various high level interactions with all relevant role players were initiated. The judiciary under the leadership of the Chief Justice is now formally part of the case flow management structures and initiatives, which will lead to improved performance in this regard. A highlight in the performance of the criminal justice system was the inroads made in the past quarter and year in terms of further reducing case backlogs. The target was met with a reduction of backlog cases to 34 926 backlog cases at the end of the quarter on all court rolls. (this was a reduction by how much compared to the target or previous performance)

Detainees

The average length of time in Remand Detention was reduced from 150 in 2009/10 to 96 days in the last quarter of 2011/12. In addition, the numbers of parolees without parole violations have increased from 71.9% baseline of 2011 to 79.9% in 2012 last quarter. By the 4th Quarter of 2011/12, the average length of time in Remand Detention was reduced to 96 days from a baseline of 150 days. This is over and above the envisaged targeted length of 120 days projected by the end of 2014.

The number of offenders participating in rehabilitation programmes continues to increase as by end of the 4th Quarter of 2011/12, about 17 556 offenders were actively involved in correctional programmes against a prison population of 167 819. This figure represent 10.5% improvement.

Output 3: Corruption within the JCPS cluster combated to enhance its effectiveness and its ability to serve as a deterrent against crime.

The anti-corruption activities continued successfully during this period. The courts have increased the number of corruption conviction where JCPS officials were involved from 29 in 2010/11 to 107 in 2012 of which 24 were convictions attained in the 4th Quarter.

Output 4: Perceptions of crime among the population managed and improved

Public Assessment on issues related to JCPS Cluster was undertaken by GCIS and the Government Performance Barometer (GPB). In these surveys, people mentioned unemployment, crime and corruption as among the most important challenges facing the country.

Findings from the GCIS Tracker study depict an improvement on public perceptions regarding government initiatives to reduce crime. The most recent data points to an  increase from 45% in Aug’11- Nov’11 to 50% between Nov’11- Mar’12. There is a marginal increase of 5% in the public’s appreciation of how government is doing in reducing crime levels when compared to a year ago.

Output 5: Levels of corruption reduced improving investor perception, trust and willingness to invest in South Africa

The 2012 Government Midterm Review report reveals that in addition to crime, a key challenge for government is corruption, which is increasingly undermining the government’s ability and resolve to deliver on its promise to offer South Africans the lives they deserve.

Output 6: Effective and integrated border management

In November 2009 the RSA government mandated the South African National Defence Force (SANDF) to return to the borders, fulfilling that Constitutional mandate of the defence force to safeguard the territorial integrity of the Republic. The SANDF started borderline deployment in April 2010 of the following that cabinet decision, by deploying in the north of the country along the KZN/Mozambique Border, Mozambique/Mpumalanga and Limpopo/Zimbabwe, in a phased-in approach which will be completed in 2015 covering the land borders of the RSA.  To date a total of 11 companies has been deployed along South African borders with neighbouring countries since the first deployment in 2010 April. Effective border management is part of the government crime prevention strategy, which deals with cross-border crimes and poaching.

The SANDF deployment of forces continues in a phased in approach working with other government role players, the South African Police Services (SAPS), SARS as well as departments of Home Affairs, Tourism, Public Works, Transport, Health, State Security and Agriculture. There are 11 companies deployed on the Zimbabwe, Swaziland, Mozambique and Lesotho border. The deployment has taken place along the northern borders, and in the Free State Province.

We will roll out a further 4 companies in the financial year 2013/14 to the North West (Botswana Border) and Northern Cape (Namibia Border) Provinces respectively during Phase 4. This will bring the total number of companies deployed on the RSA border to 15. As part of this deployment, operations are being conducted to combat cross-border crime, stock theft and illegal grazing as well as rhino poaching in the Kruger National Park.

Since the deployment of the SANDF, contraband to the value of R3 105 959 has been confiscated, 70 since the beginning of April 2012. It included cigarettes and liquor. Additionally, 763,11kg narcotics (dagga) were confiscated, 315 kg precious metal (copper), 23 stolen vehicles and 9 weapons were also recovered. A total of 5 210 undocumented persons were apprehended and 212 criminals arrested.

Output 7: Integrity of identity and status of citizen and residents secured

Government has made strides in its endeavours to ensure the integrity of the identity of our people as well as the status of residents within the country.

In this regard, since the launch of the National Population Registration Campaign (NPR) in 2010, children registered within 30 days have increased from 445 853 to 556 762 in 2011/12, just over 50% of all births. Early registration of child births will ensure that government is able to extend services to children, including social grants, where applicable while helping to prevent fraudulent registration of child births through such schemes known as “rent a baby”.

To encourage parents to register their babies within 30 days of delivery, a total of 264 hospitals, clinics and health care facilities have been connected to the Department of Home Affairs. A further 80 hospitals will be connected in the coming year. In the meantime, eighty-eight (88) hospitals and other health care centres are visited regularly by officials for collection of registration forms.    

We have also witnessed a dramatic decrease in the late registration of persons of 15 years and above, from 354 588 in 2009/10 to 110 902 in the 2011/12 year, thus reducing the risk of fraudulent acquisition of citizenship while the protecting the NPR.  New regulations with penalties aimed at curbing late registration will be introduced this year.

A total of 1 199 467 IDs were issued to first time recipients in the 2011/12 financial year.  This is a significant increase compared with the 834 353 issued in 2009/10. With the number of applications for the re-issue of IDs and late registration of birth, steadily decreasing, it is evident that South Africans are beginning to value their enabling documents, their identity and their citizenship. In this regard, in the 2011/12 year, we reissued 1 075 994 IDs, which is 5% fewer when compared with the 1 125 141, issued in 2010/11.

We remain committed to dealing decisively with the scourge of duplicate IDs. The most serious category of duplicates is where more than one person shares the same ID number. In this regard we have resolved 6335 cases from January to May 2012. The breakdown is as follows: January: 865; February: 911; March: 961; April: 1771; May: 1827.

Output 8: Cyber Crime Combated

Cyber-security remains key priorities for us as they have detrimental effect on the economy and most vulnerable people of the country.  Cabinet has approved the cyber-security policy framework in March 2012. In summary, this framework outlines policy positions that are intended to:
a. Address national security threats in cyberspace;
b. Combat cyber warfare, cybercrime and other cyber ills;
c. Develop, review and update existing substantive and procedural laws to ensure alignment, and
d. Build confidence and trust in the secure use of information and communication technologies.

An implementation plan to deal with the approved cyber-security policy framework is currently being operationalized. A total of 155 cybercrime matters were finalised during the past financial year. It appears that the majority of cases involve unlawful electronic fund transfers / fraud etc where the password of the complainant was obtained or cloned cards being used. The conviction rate on average stands at 89%.

Conclusion
This strategic report on progress with regard to Outcome 3 indicates the strengthening of delivery in terms of cross-cutting criminal justice system issues. The Cluster will continue to monitor progress in terms of the various outputs of Outcome 3 and will also continue to align implementation with the refined Delivery Agreement.  

Thank you!
