Public Works and Infrastructure Minister Dean Macpherson is set to open the first quarter meeting of the Minister and MECs (MINMEC) for Public Works and Infrastructure in all the nine provinces.
Thursday’s meeting will be held in Polokwane, Limpopo.
The meeting will also be attended by Limpopo Premier Dr Phophi Ramathuba.
“MINMEC will provide an opportunity to reflect on the state of infrastructure in the country, and to adopt implementable plans aimed at achieving the vision of turning South Africa into a construction site and using public assets for the public good.
“This will contribute to economic growth and help create thousands of new jobs,” the Department of Public Works and Infrastructure said in a statement.
Before the start of the meeting, the Minister, the Premier and Limpopo MEC for Public Works, Roads and Infrastructure, Ernest Rachoene, will conduct an oversight visit to the construction site of the Limpopo Theatre at the Bakone Malapa Open-Air Museum just outside Polokwane. – SAnews.gov.za
