INSTITUTIONAL POLICIES AND STRATEGIES
Policy Mandates
There are a number of key policy mandates that comprehensively capture our vision and thus describe what we do and why we do them. In short, these are programs and plans that seek to address public interest. The policy mandates also provide for a relevant international framework that has a bearing on NRWDI and South Africa’s policies. These Strategic Plans are aligned with the Department of Mineral Resources and Energy (DMRE) strategic outcomes and contributes towards the delivery of the objectives of the National Development Plan (NDP) as well as the Medium-Term Strategic Framework. It establishes the key areas of focus that will enable the NRWDI to deliver on its legislative and policy mandate.
