Hon Chairperson, 62% of the electorate mandated the ANC to accelerate the implementation of radical socioeconomic transformation, to push back the frontiers of poverty, unemployment and inequality. Underpinning this task is to create 1 million jobs by 2030 and to transform the countryside into sustainable economic centres, as envisaged by the New Growth Path, the Industrial Policy Action Plan, and the ANC's 2014 Election Manifesto, all of whom are encompassed in the overarching National Development Plan.
