“The intention in the Integrated Registration Outreach Programme [ICROP] is to reach-out to the higher amount of clients/beneficiaries to access SASSA services.
“This really is mainly because of the lack of infrastructure at Fernie and there's no totally functional office focused on service the area on a click here regular basis. The assistance issue created for intervention experiences a higher influx of potential beneficiaries, that makes it complicated with the Workplace to attend to all people who take a look at a service point.
“In this reach-out programme, SASSA will mobilise additional methods to permit the servicing of all consumers and boost access to Social Assistance services,” the agency said.
