Description
Formalise partnerships with civil society organisations in all nine provinces to establish Service Delivery Improvement Forums (SDIFs) at local level to provide timely citizen report cards on service delivery levels at community level, especially in relation to primary health care, water, sanitation, environmental management and housing.
Accountability to the public regarding service delivery performance will be enhanced as well as greater citizen engagement in service delivery performance monitoring.
