Minister’s speaking notes Media Brief 17 August 2020

National Arts Council of South Africa,
17 August 2020, South Africa

It has been exactly two weeks since our last engagement on the 3rd of August 2020, where we assured the nation that we will provide continuous updates on our relief plans for the sector. Since then, we have been working tirelessly to conclude all processes relating to the 1st Wave of the COVID-19 Relief Fund and to streamline our 2nd Wave of the relief funding process.
