In respect of the issues around the Post Establishment, NAPTOSA abided by the processes and procedures applied by the Education Labour Relations Council (ELRC). NAPTOSA cautioned, however, that there was a need to review and address the post provisioning for special schools. NAPTOSA congratulated the Department for being proactive in the district on issues surrounding the state of readiness for the reopening of schools for 2013. Although there had been some intermittent shortages, NAPTOSA was generally satisfied with the delivery of the LTSM and stationery to schools. The union pointed out that there was no CAPS literature in Braille.
