  • Event Programme
    EVENT PROGRAMME HOSTED BY THE CITY OF CAPE TOWN AND ORGANISED BY WESGRO Dear Colleagues of the World Energy Cities Partnership It gives me great pleasure, on behalf of the City of Cape Town, to welcome the members of the World Energy Cities Partnership (WECP) to the WECP Annual General Meeting in our beautiful city. I extend a special welcome to the visiting Mayors, Deputy Mayors and delegation leaders. The WECP, with a proud history dating back more than twenty years, brings together on an annual basis some of the greatest energy cities to share their experiences in the development of energy sectors. As the newest member city of WECP, Cape Town is both excited to learn from its fellow members and to share information about opportunities in energy sector development in our city region. Notwithstanding the current oil price volatility, the Western Cape Provincial Government is driving an ambitious programme of investment into the oil and gas sectors under the auspices of Project Khulisa. At the same time our national government under Operation Phakisa is seeking to unlock the potential of the marine economy, including in offshore oil and gas. Within Cape Town our advanced services sectors, including legal, financial, and engineering sectors, are providing expert assistance to energy companies both in the region and in the rest of the African continent. This year’s AGM will also provide a significant focus on renewable energy. Cape Town is leading the development of this sector in South Africa. It is an important contributor to the growth of the green economy, and in building resilience and combatting climate change.

  • 1 Premier Alan Winde State of the Province Address 2020
    PREMIER ALAN WINDE STATE OF THE PROVINCE ADDRESS 2020 1 Good morning!! I’m going to do the protocol a little bit differently today: Residents of Mitchells Plain and surrounds! All citizens of the Western Cape Special Guests Community leaders Religious leaders Police Service leaders Honourable Speaker Honourable Members of the Provincial Cabinet and Legislature Members of the Consular Corps Honourable leaders of political parties, members of the National Assembly and National Council of Provinces Director General of the Western Cape Heads of Provincial Departments Leaders of Local government Colleagues, friends and family It is fantastic to be here in Mitchells Plain today! It is an honour to be delivering my State of the Province Address in front of this community, and it is a special honour to be delivering it in this venue. The Rocklands Civic Centre is no stranger to historic events. It was here that the United Democratic Front rose up against the evils of Apartheid. It was here that people of all walks united behind the idea of a democratic South Africa in which everyone would be free. Over the years, thousands of people have entered through those doors- for community programs, important discussions, for weddings and celebrations. There is no better place than this place, a Provincial heritage site, for us to host this historic SOPA - the first SOPA outside of the Provincial Parliament, right here in one of our communities. So, let’s get down to the business of this house, which is for me to reflect on what we have delivered to date, and to lay out our delivery priorities for the future, to our audience here today, and across the province.

  • Mike Spicer Vice Chairperson Wesgro Board SA Reserve Bank Building Cape Town
    Mike Spicer Vice Chairperson Wesgro Board SA Reserve Bank Building Cape Town 09 July 2020 David Maynier MEC: Finance and Economic Opportunities Western Cape Government 140 – 142 Long Street Cape Town 8001 CC: Premier Alan Winde Dear Minister Thank you for the meeting you had with the Wesgro Board on Tuesday, 07 July 2020 and for the honest and frank exchange. I have received responses from all Board Members to the questions that you posed to us, and the common position of the Board is that: 1. Due process was followed to sign a new contract for a second and final five-year term for the CEO, and the letter of the law was fully complied with in this case. Going forward there may be some ways to improve relationships with stakeholders in engagements on such matters. 2. We are fully confident that the benchmarking process was thorough and entirely defensible. 3. While we are mindful of the debate about today’s context, the contract was approved by the Board in mid- February 2020, before the health and economic impact of COVID was felt, and it was fully justifiable given the wide range of factors that we have evidenced to you in our previous meetings and the extensive correspondence provided to you. It should also be noted that, once the potential impact of COVID was apparent, the CEO tabled a voluntary cut to his salary, and a thirty percent cut in his bonus, which the Board accepted at the end of March 2020. In order to try to resolve and reach closure on this matter, we have decided to take up the offer made by Premier Alan Winde to the former chair that, if we were unable to resolve the matter, he could mediate between the MEC and the chair (vice chair).

The vaccination site, located at UCT’s Forest Hill residence complex in Mowbray, was launched on 30 August and will officially commence operations on 1 September. It is open to all members of the public and at full capacity will administer vaccines to 75 people per hour. UCT Vice-Chancellor Professor Mamokgethi Phakeng said that when the Western Cape DoH approached the university about the possibility of setting up the facility, it provided an opportunity to serve those who live and work around the university. “We want our students, staff members and all of community members in our vicinity to have the protection the vaccine provides against the worst possible effects of COVID-19. This new vaccination site is our way of giving back to the local community, by providing the physical space and facilities.” Phakeng added that the name of the facility was carefully thought. “We decided on the UCT Community of Hope Vaccination Centre because we view vaccination as a step towards defeating the pandemic – especially as it is opening so soon after the youth have received the opportunity to get vaccinated.
