It was stated that the NYDA needed to do more to communicate the services that it was offering to youth throughout South Africa. The Committee lamented that the youth of South Africa was not in dialogue around the issues which affected them, especially at a local governmental level. The NYDA reported that there were 144 access points throughout the country and that these included 14 full service branches. It was agreed that the NYDA should submit a breakdown of all programmes and projects that it supported at a Provincial and municipal level.
