5 As such, the strategies and programmes articulated in this plan aim to reinforce the goal to create social and economic livelihoods through decent housing that affords citizens the opportunity to build family and community life in a holistic and inclusive sense. LN SISULU, MP MINISTER FOR HUMAN SETTLEMENTS DATE:FOREWORD BY THE MINISTERThe National Development Plan (NDP) recognises that where people live and work matters. It is in this context that the Department, in collaboration with sector departments, other spheres of government, the private sector and civil society, is partnering to deliver on the outcome of integrated and sustainable human settlements, through short-, medium- and long-term development investment, to generate jobs and socioeconomic benefit that supports sustainable urban growth.

6 In the year ahead, our focus will be on ensuring that we consolidate and expedite the targets and outputs in order to achieve the goal of improving the quality of household life. This includes accelerating the implementation of human settlement catalytic projects that are a vehicle for achieving spatial restructuring, equity and justice. In our endeavour to transform the residential property market, we commit to ensuring that there is a dedicated focus to target low-moderate income households participation in the residential property market. This includes improving access to security of tenure for households in the subsidised housing sector by ensuring the registration and issuing of title deeds, as well as improving and expanding access to housing finance for end-users, and bridging finance for contractors and developers.

7 As part of radical economic transformation, the Department has completed drafts of both the Property Practitioners Bill and the Human Settlements Development Bank Bill, which will serve as the main drivers of change to achieve economic transformation. Furthermore, in pursuit of the objective of socioeconomic equality, which achieves L N Sisulu, MPMinister: Human Settlements a reduction in household poverty and unemployment, we have set goals and targets for our funding to ensure improved access to well-located land, infrastructure and services by the poor, as well as low- and middle-income households.

8 Thus, we have prioritised vulnerable individuals and households living in informal settlements and in informal housing in backyards to be provided with access to land, basic services infrastructure and adequate housing. Given our scarce and valuable resources, the implementation of our programmes will prioritise the poor, aged, disabled, destitute, military veterans and child-headed households. This will include the implementation of programmes to empower women and youth. As government, we are committed to fulfil and promote the new urban agenda adopted at Habitat III in Quito, Ecuador, both internationally, regionally and nationally, in collaboration with other sector departments and private sector partners, by implementing programmes that redress the way villages, towns, cities and human dwellings are planned, designed, financed, developed, governed and managed.

9 While we note the remarkable progress made over the past years, we remain conscious of the challenges and limitations we have to contend with to achieve our goal of the delivery of our programmes and projects in a human settlements context. The 2017/18 ANNUAL PERFORMANCE Plan (APP) articulates our acknowledgment that we cannot discharge our responsibilities towards the citizens of South Africa in the same manner as we 7 Official Sign-offIt is hereby certified that the departmental ANNUAL PERFORMANCE Plan 2017/18 and the plan for the outer years (2019 2020): was reviewed by the management of the Department for Human Settlements under the guidance of the Honourable Minister LN Sisulu.
