BY THE MECThe Honourable Mrs Lydia Johnson, MPLMEC: Agriculture, Environmental Affairs and Rural DevelopmentI have pleasure in presenting the Annual Performance Plan 2011/2012 for theDepartment of Agriculture, Environmental Affairs and Rural Development.Besides being a policy requirement, the Annual Performance Plan is atool whereby the Department details its key programmes and performanceinformation which will be implemented during the year. As we begin the newfinancial year, I have made it clear to the Department that the government mandate remains intactand unchanged.His Excellency, President Zuma and the Honourable Premier, have consistently emphasised thestrategic priority outcomes that we are expected to deliver during our term of office. It must always beclear though, that the work of government is not about political terms of office but about addressingidentified social problems that face our people on a daily basis. This is why it is important for everyoneto focus rather on the constant factors, which in this case are poverty, unemployment, food insecurity,disease and the limited access to economic opportunities for the majority of our people in this Province.Citizens yearn for a fully functional and efficient Department of Agriculture, Environmental Affairs andRural Development. This Department has been given amongst others, the most important of tasks,that of ensuring that no citizen goes to bed hungry. Our task can be simplified as ensuring increasedfood production and reducing food insecurity, safeguarding the environment from exploitation andpromoting its optimal, efficient and sustainable use so that it can replenish the natural resource baseand empower the disadvantaged, particularly rural people as alluded to by His Excellency, the Presidentof the RSA. We are a responsive government and, accordingly, we have crafted programmes that webelieve respond adequately to the plight of the KwaZulu-Natal citizenry.In his State of the Nation Address, the President has declared 2011 a year of job creation throughmeaningful economic transformation and inclusive growth. Every sector has been challenged to focuson job creation and all government departments have been urged to align their programmes withthe job creation imperatives. Of the six priority areas identified for job creation, two of them, namelyagriculture and the green economy are among the key mandates of this Department. The New GrowthPath (NGP) identifies amongst others, development of agricultural value chains and new opportunitiesin the green economy as well as fostering rural development as main economic drivers in the realmof job creation.ANNUAL PERFORMANCE PLAN 2011/12iii
