South Africa: Department of Social Development Must Assist NGOs with Non- Compliance Issues

press release

The IFP questions the decision by the Department of Social Development to summarily deregister and find so many organizations that are doing good work in our communities non-compliant.

IFP Spokesperson on Social Development, Ms Helen Makhuba said, "The Department must come clean on why so many NGOs have been deregistered and found non-compliant. It seems like some of them are being punished for taking government to court because this seems like a crack down on organizations that are doing good work where government fails?"
