Indeed Honourable member, I have signed a performance agreement with the President.
(a) The Performance Management Framework for Ministers is the Medium-Term Strategic Framework (MTSF) 2014/19. The performance targets and indicators are derived from the fourteen (14) Outcomes which government seeks to achieve. To assist the Honourable member, the outcome applicable to my portfolio is outcome eight (8).
The outcomes and targets constitute government’s Programme of Action (POA), against which performance is tracked and reported on at least on a quarterly basis.
(b) to (e) The monitoring of the Performance Agreements is done through Cabinet when assessing the progress of government’s programme of action. The latter is submitted periodically and discussed extensively in Cabinet after which a Cabinet Statement is issued to the public. Cabinet discusses implementation bottlenecks and make recommendations to address the identified bottlenecks.
