Department of Home Affairs Launches Outreach Programme in KwaZulu-Natal

Dannhauser: Home Affairs Deputy Minister Njabulo Nzuza will on Tuesday embark on an outreach programme in the Dannhauser Local Municipality, KwaZulu-Natal. The initiative is aimed at accelerating service delivery and bringing essential services closer to communities.

According to South African Government News Agency, the Deputy Minister will be joined by Dannhauser Local Municipality Mayor Bongani Hadebe. A key highlight of the visit will be the official handover of birth certificates to successful applicants of the Late Registration of Birth (LRB) process. This forms part of the department's ongoing campaign to end invisibility and ensure that all citizens are accounted for in the National Population Register.

Part of the programme will also focus on an ID drive for the upcoming elections. Several government departments are expected to support the programme. This initiative underscores the government's commitment to restoring dignity for all, improving access to services, and ensuring that no child or adult remains undocumented.
