During the previous financial year, 2010/11, briefings on the Strategic Plan and Annual Report of Ncera Farms, the Committee raised concerns regarding the poor standard and quality of the report in terms of information provided and its overall performance. This has not been addressed and similar issues were still prevalent in the 2011/12 Annual Report of Ncera Farms. The Committee decided not to consider the Annual Report of Ncera Farms, which was not based on an approved Strategic Plan and the reported programmes in the Annual Report were also not based on the 2011/12 Strategic Plan that was presented but rejected by the Committee on 29 March 2011. The Committee rejected the 2011/12 Strategic Plan of Ncera Farms as it observed that the Plan lacked detail and did not address the challenges that were prevalent in the entity including those that were raised by the Committee after the oversight visit to the entity in 2010 and during the 2009/10 Annual Repot presentation.
