Minister in the Presidency Khumbudzo Ntshavheni has sought to clarify policies cabinet members in the government of national unity (GNU) will implement after weeks of speculation.
Addressing media on Thursday, Ntshavheni said priorities of all cabinet ministers will be reliant on the national development plan (NDP).
These priorities will be adopted at the scheduled two-day cabinet lekgotla which starts on Thursday.
Whoever said this is the policy I'm going to implement, no. Whoever said this is the priority I'm going to implement, no. Those decisions can only be taken at the lekgotla. They [ministers] can say those are the things they are going to debate and engage at the lekgotla for prioritisation.
She added new ministers should use the time before the lekgotla for onboarding by receiving briefings and consultation with directors-general (DGs) on how to shape the direction of the discussions at the lekgotla.
