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

“This is a result of the lack of infrastructure at Fernie and there's no totally functional office focused on service the SRD area on a regular basis. The assistance point produced for intervention activities a superior inflow of opportunity beneficiaries, that makes it difficult for your office to attend to all people who take a look at a service point.
