  3. ANNUAL DEPARTMENTAL PERFORMANCE (APRIL 2012 – END MARCH 2013) During the 2012/13 financial year we marked the third financial year in which we existed as the department of human settlements and cemented the outcome based approach in line with the National Development Plan. The Department has made reasonable strides and progress in setting the delivery framework and systems for the achievement of outcome 8 targets. In the Informal Settlement Upgrading Progamme we have improved outputs and have to date provided nearly 190 000 households with upgraded services and secure tenure.

  4. To ensure that households in the affordable sector increased their ability to access adequate housing, the National Housing Finance Corporation has commenced with the necessary work to activate the Mortgage Default insurance programme. • The department has also revised the finance linked individual subsidy programme to improve the ability of households in the income category R3 501-R15 000 to access mortgage finance for housing thus increasing access to housing finance and the provision of shelter and basic services. • The management of the Urban Settlement Grant continued to receive attention in the devolution of powers to the local sphere of government.

  5. The department went on a massive recruitment drive to implement the turn-around strategy aimed at repositioning the Organization to better discharge its responsibilities in providing integrated and sustainable human settlements. • The new organizational structure was implemented in line with the approved strategic plan. • Employee development plans in the context of the performance management system continued to receive attention so as to give meaning to the Departmental Strategy. • These successes reflect tireless efforts by all stakeholders in the human settlement sector to respond to the challenge of working differently and better. This annual report accounts on this success as implemented through each programme in the Department.
