In the 2011-12 financial year, eight new EPWP district steering committees were created, in addition to the 11 EPWP operational district steering committees already in existence. Furthermore, in the previous debate, the number of participants from municipalities was low, and we are glad to announce that 277 out of 278 municipalities have signed protocol agreements, committing them to achieving their EPWP targets. The incentive grant model was revised to give rural municipalities easier access to grants in order to increase. Hon Minister, we appreciate that the rural municipalities were not participating in this particular programme because of the model that was in place at the time.
