Vital Registration Campaign

19 May 2006

The MEC for Health and Social Development in Limpopo Mr. Seaparo Sekoati invites all media people to the Launch of Vital Registration campaign which is carried out in collaboration with the department of Home Affairs. The campaign will take place at Sekhukhune District which has been declared by President Thabo Mbeki as one of the Nodal Point in our province.

The department is embarking on this campaign after realizing that more than one thousand people in the area are without ID books and the birth certificates. The fact that people are without vital registration means that they can not access Social Grand.

The MEC Mr. Seaparo Sekoati and a delegation from the department of Home Affairs will be engaged in door to door campaign to issue vital documents like ID’s and birth certificates. The Social Security directorate will register those people who qualify for Social Grants and all members of the media are invited.

The event will take as follows:

Venue: Mathukhuthela sports ground A (Sekhukhune District)
Date: 08/10/2005
Time: 10H00
