4. Conclusion The Committee was extremely concerned with the financial management capacity of both Setas since the Auditor-General pointed emphasis on matter in their annual financial performance. It was unanimously agreed to by the Committee that the National Skills Development Strategy III targets were set very low hence some of the Setas achieved more than three times their targets. It was noted that the Committee should make inputs to the forthcoming NSDS III before it can be made official with the objective of assessing Seta targets and other critical areas. It was clear from the proceedings that Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) remained a challenge when it comes to implementation by Setas. The issue of transformation in executive management level positions in the mining and ICT sector is still a major challenge that remains unsolved. Access to both Setas by people in rural areas is still a challenge as they don't have regional offices in rural provinces. The Committee promised to engage both Setas during the next financial year when dealing with strategic plans.
