With particular reference to the Kleinmond low-cost housing demonstrator and the aquaculture farms, the Committee noted that one of the major obstacles for the uptake and/or large-scale rollout of the technology solutions emanating from the research and development funded by the Department, is the lack of co-ordination and co-operation at all levels of governance. The Committee has resolved, therefore, that when it formulates its future programme, it will as far as possible, try to arrange joint sittings with other Committees and invite national Departments that have an interest in the work being done by the Department and its entities. Furthermore, the Committee has also requested that the Department and its entities report on and enhance their efforts to get other Departments to consider and adopt technology solutions developed by South Africans for South Africa.
