Peoples charter outreach programme to begin soon

The community outreach programme on the People's Charter is expected to start early next week.

This has been confirmed by the Department of National Planning's Filimoni Kau who said, the awareness programme will be carried out by a team made up of government officials as well as representatives from NGO's.

Kau said they held a meeting last Friday and looked at strategies as to how best to carry out the awareness program, as it will be conducted on a smaller scale compared to the last round of consultations.

Kau said as well as the community outreach programmes, they will be monitoring the implementation of the Charter, in various Government ministries through their 2009 cooperate plans.
