The 2030 vision outlined in the NDP provides a guide to address the twin challenges of poverty and inequality, whereby a state that is capable of playing a transformative and a developmental role is needed. This requires a well run and effectively set of co-ordinated state institutions, staffed by skilled public servants who are committed to the public good and capable of delivering consistently high-quality services for all South Africans, while prioritising the nation's developmental objectives. This will enable people from all sections of society to have the confidence in the state, which in turn will reinforce the state's effectiveness.
