President CyrilRamaphosa said the country has “made remarkable progress” and succeeded in overcoming the worst phase of the pandemic while protecting the capacity of the health system. Here are some of the key points

In the next few days, the updated regulations will be published and Ministers will provide detailed briefings.

Global and domestic demand and supply of goods and services for some sectors will remain low for the foreseeable future, regardless of the lifting of restrictions. The reconstruction and recovery plan that will be finalised will build on the R500 billion economic and social relief package we announced in April, which has provided vital support for households, companies and workers at a time of dire need.

The donations came from ordinary people and workers, religious organisations, political parties, non-governmental organisations, trusts and foundations. Through its work, the Solidarity Fund has demonstrated the power of social partnership and cooperation. We have to do so not just because the lockdown is being eased, but as part of work already underway to implement the National Strategic Plan adopted by Cabinet earlier this year. This includes the rollout of an integrated and multidisciplinary model that incorporates psycho-social support, case investigation, housing services and economic empowerment for survivors under one roof.

The Special Investigating Unit has submitted its first interim report to me, detailing the progress of its investigations in all provinces and in some national departments and entities. We continue to work to strengthen our anti-corruption efforts through measures to provide the NPA and other law enforcement agencies with the human and financial resources needed to tackle corruption, strengthening of specialised commercial crime courts, which will help expedite Covid-related cases, and the finalisation of the new National Anti-Corruption Strategy.We cannot afford a resurgence of infections in our country.
