The NYDA is running the following programs:
R50, 3m is allocated for all the Economic Development Programmes.
The Department of Planning Monitoring and Evaluation (DPME) does not run dedicated development programmes but it does encourage SMMEs to register on its supplier database and endeavours to utilise these companies where possible when procuring goods and services.
Statistics South Africa does not run any development programme for small business. However, it gathers data and collates such data into statistical information that would certainly be of use to small business. A dedicated survey for the self-employed is periodically conducted to inform what takes place in the informal sector.
