Monitoring implementation of the MTSF
• “MTSF contains high-level development indicators for each outcome”
• “Designed to enable cabinet, parliament, provincial legislators and public to monitor overall impact”
• President will enter into performance agreements with each minister – key indicators and targets for MTSF
• Greater levels of operational detail, together with other areas included in strategy plans, annual performance plans, IDP’S & programme plans for individual institutions.
