The office of the premier in North West is one of the province's departments that will be put under full administration. Mokonyane said the Cabinet received a second report from the inter-ministerial committee (IMC) on North West and "is satisfied with the progress in stabilising the province". Two weeks ago, in its previous meeting, the Cabinet approved that North West be placed under section 100 (1) of the Constitution. These are:- Department of finance, economy and enterprise development;- Department of local government and human settlement;- Department of rural, environment and agricultural development;- Department of social Development; and- Department of tourism. She said the IMC's report on the North West is a "work in progress" and won't be made public as it contains untested allegations.
