ANC Media Statement, 20 May 2013     

NEC meeting held on the 17th ‐ 19th May 2013      The National Executive Committee of the African National Congress met in  its regular meeting over three days 17th ‐ 19th May 2013, at Saint George  Hotel.  The  meeting  received  the  President's  overview,  the  report  of  the  National Working Committee and reports from the NEC Subcommittees.      Africa Day    The report on International Relations was discussed extensively with a focus on the  50th Anniversary of the OAU/AU. The ANC reaffirmed its commitment to  contributing to the building of a better Africa and a better world. The celebrations  of the fiftieth anniversary of the OAU/ AU starting on the 25th May 2013 will help  the movement lead the process of educating South Africans about the journey  travelled by the continent over the last fifty years, mainly focusing on the liberation  of every piece of the African soil from colonisation and racial domination.    The discussion paper on Africa added details to this discussion. The NEC was  reminded that in the document “Ready to Govern: ANC policy Guidelines for a  Democratic South Africa” the ANC re‐committed itself that; “A democratic South  Africa will actively promote the objectives of democracy, peace, stability,  development and multi‐beneficial relations among the people of Africa as a whole  as well as Pan African solidarity”. NEC decided to affirm the correctness of this  approach in the face of the growing hostility against the continent by opposition  forces.

  Opposition’s agitation for discontent    In the face of the growing anti‐majoritarian positioning of the opposition forces and  the agitation for discontent, the ANC will continue telling the story of our country as  is and therefore remind society of the progress made over the last twenty years.    Conference    Amongst issues discussed and approved by the NEC was the assessment of the 53rd  National Conference in Mangaung. The meeting was unanimous that the  conference was a resounding success from various points of view. Some of the  issues are; policy outcomes, planning and logistics, conduct of delegates and  smooth electoral process. The NEC agreed that further discussions be undertaken  on a number of issues related to the future conferences. These are; fixed venue for  national conferences, deciding early on the logistical details of the 54th National  Conference.    Trade Union Movement    The NEC discussed the state of the trade union movement in the country. It  considered factors that led to the creation of labour federations in the country and  the fact that this provided an opportunity to harmonise labour relations and labour  practices. The meeting further noted that the recent attacks on NUM and SATAWU  are in fact an attack on COSATU as a federation and on the Congress Movement as  a whole. The ANC resolved to develop a comprehensive programme of engagement  with individual unions. The officials were directed to engage COSATU on an ongoing  basis.    The NEC was also given a report on preparations for the Alliance Economic Summit  with the Economic Transformation Committee of the ANC being the driver of the  process.  The Summit will take place at the end of June.    Internal Processes    The NEC approved the name of Comrade Amos Masondo as the National  Coordinator of the elections campaign for 2014 elections. The name of Comrade  Manne Dipico was approved as the ANC's National List Coordinator and that he will  be deputized by a woman. The NEC also approved the establishment of a List  Committee to be headed by the Secretary General of the ANC, Comrade Gwede  Mantashe.

The meeting also endorsed the name of Thami KaPlaatjie as a senior researcher to  be placed at the ANC's Policy Institute. In this regard he will be responsible for  research and the support Monitoring and Evaluation unit. He will also coordinate  and guide the work of young researchers that will be deployed in the Institute. The  NEC also approved two names to be added to the Integrity Commission, these are  Barbara Masekela and Bongi Dlomo. These additions will bring the number of  Commissioners to twelve.    In terms of the continuing work on provinces by the NWC, the NEC received reports  and took decisions on issues affecting the Tlokwe Municipality in the North West  and Lukhanji (Queenstown) in the Eastern Cape.  In addition to the work done, the  NWC was given a task of meeting all the councillors in all the provinces to  consolidate work that was started in 2012    The NEC meeting received reports from the following subcommittees; Policy,  Elections, International Relations, Political Education and Economic Transformation.  All these subcommittees gave progress report and recommended decisions as part  of their functional responsibilities. The NEC has expressed satisfaction on the work  done by these NEC Subcommittees.    Drug abuse    The NEC endorsed the President's initiative to go to Eldorado Park on the invitation  of the community in their plight for a need to fight against drugs and drugs abuse.  The view of the meeting is that the battle against drugs must be won to save those  addicted to them. In this regard the NEC has directed the relevant Sub‐committees  working together with government departments to follow through on this matter.   As the ANC we cannot be a spectator what has become a cancer destroying and  eating our society and our nation.    The NEC agreed to take the campaign on the scourge of violence against women  and children to a higher level. The relevant subcommittee of the ANC will lead this  campaign.    Jet Airways    SA report on the landing of the Jet Airways plane in Waterkloof Military Base was  presented and discussed. The NEC agreed to wait for the report of the DGs as  commissioned by the Ministers in the security cluster.  The report has now been  finalized and made public. The ANC welcomes the outcome of the investigation. We  appreciate details contained in the report and clarity given.  It provides the basic  information on what happened. This will help the parliamentary debate on
