Government has set up over 171 Thusong Service Centres across the country – with a total of 96 centres connected through SITAs network.
Speaking during a briefing by the Governance and Administration cluster – Public Service and Administration minister, Roy Padayachie, revealed that government had plans on expanding the network as it finds ways of dealing with deficiencies in its connected ICT systems.
“We are looking at creating the infrastructure for connected government across the various levels. Programmes on e-government, and what we now define as m-government (mobility government), an ability to take government to where the people are, is quite critical to the dispensation of services,” Padayachie explained.
