20 November - Labour

In today’s show, we were joined in studio by Pieter van Rynsberg – from the Department of Water Affairs and Forestry. The department will be hosting a workshop tomorrow the 21st of November at the Cape Sun Hotel. They are inviting SMMEs to an information session on procurement opportunities in the department. They are looking at encouraging entrepreneurs and groups to register with the department for them to be in a position to be called upon for services that includes catering, performing artists, equipment hire and other community entertainment services. Procurement in the department is undertaken in line with the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act and therefore they aim to attract communities, groups and individuals from historically disadvantaged backgrounds. For more information you can contact their offices on (021) 950 7161 or Rosa on 950 7117.

We also heard from Hams Pettenburg-Perwaord – A debt counsellor from Debt Therapy. If you are struggling to pay your debts, you can approach a debt counsellor and ask him or her to review your situation. This procedure is provided for in the National Credit Act, which became fully effective in June last year, and applies to credit agreements entered into before and after that date. Debt counselling is expected to offer people who are over-indebted a way to negotiate a more affordable repayment plan with their creditors. At Debt Therapy they help you deal with your debt problems if you are overindebted especially now as we face financial meltdown.
