Presidency on commitment by Nedlac to soonest migration to Coronavirus COVID-19 level 3 lockdown
15 May 2020
Constituencies of the National Economic Development and Labour Council (NEDLAC) are working sectorally and collectively to achieve the country’s earliest possible migration to Level 3 of the national lockdown.
Government, labour, business and the community sector are undertaking detailed work to ensure that lives will be saved and livelihoods will be protected as the economy is progressively unlocked and society adapts to the reality of economic activity with COVID-19 as an ever-present danger.
President Ramaphosa co-chaired a virtual meeting today, Friday, 15 May 2020, of the NEDLAC constituencies to assess preparations for the step-down from Level 4 of the national lockdown.
Today’s meeting was the first in a series of consultations led by the President between government and social partners as well as more specific sectors of civil society, on the migration from Level 4 to Level 3 of the lockdown.
