“The aim in the Integrated Registration Outreach Programme [ICROP] is to reach-out to your high quantity of clients/beneficiaries to access SASSA services.

“This can be due to lack of infrastructure at Fernie and there's no totally functional office committed to service the area on a daily basis. The assistance issue produced for intervention encounters a large influx of likely beneficiaries, which makes it hard with the office status sassa to attend to all people who pay a visit to a service point.

“In this reach-out programme, SASSA will mobilise a lot more sources to allow the servicing of all clients and improve entry to Social Assistance companies,” the agency said.
