The ANC Women’s League National Working Task Team (NWTT) has decided that the current provincial executive committee (PEC) of the ANCWL in Gauteng be dissolved as the constitutional mandate of the structure lapsed in August 2022. The task team said this morning that the decision was informed by the constitutional, procedural, and organisational prescripts and processes of the ANCWL and the ANC.

The task team met on Thursday to discuss the development and progress of ANCWL structures across the country.

The matters discussed included the Provincial Task Teams (PTTs), the state of readiness of provinces to hold respective conferences, and the political developments in the country and world at large.

“The ANCWL National Working Task Team has been given 7 days to appoint the Gauteng Provincial Task Team. The PTT will be responsible for ensuring the province’s readiness for conference, including the regions,” said ANCWL NTT spokesperson Dinah Pule.

She said the National Task Team “wishes to acknowledge the work done by the outgoing PEC in restoring and strengthening the ANCWL in the province”.

Pule said upon appointment, the PTTs were tasked with ensuring branches were in good standing and were ready for the coming provincial and national conferences of the ANCWL.

“The process of membership verification and auditing will be facilitated by the National Office of Organising and the Auditing and Verification Team, under the ANCWL NTT. The cut-off date for membership renewal remains October 3, 2022,” she said.

Pule said the ANCWL would join the ANC in commemorating the life of the late Winnie Madikizela-Mandela today, her birthday. Madikizela-Mandela was born in 1936 and died in 2018.

The ANC will host programmes across the country with the main activities taking place in Soweto and led by ANC president Cyril Ramaphosa.

Pule urged ANC and women’s league members, and the public, “to celebrate and reflect on the life of the gallant leader and the phenomenal role she played in fighting for the liberation of our nation, particularly for women and children”.
