A wide range of measures and support/promotional structures are already in place across the local government system to engage with local business and to encourage enterprise. Practices can vary depending on local circumstances, needs and opportunities.
The recently established CCMA sub-committee on economic development has met with my Department on a number of occasions. The identification of best practices in the provision of business supports is at an advanced stage. This will feed into the development of a strategy, tailored to local circumstances, to be rolled out across all local authority areas.
