Pursuant to the lofty ideals embedded in the Ministry’s “Growth at Home” concept and strategies, Minister of Industrialisation and Trade Lucia Iipumbu and her ministerial delegation continue to undertake national consultations with various stakeholders.
The stakeholders include local authorities, consumers, traders, business community as well as political office bearers on matters pertaining to the administration of the Liquor Act, Act no 6 of 1998, the implementation of the National Consumer Protection Policy as well as the Namibia Investment Promotion and Facilitation Bill (NIPFB). The Ministry is taking the crusade for stakeholder consultations to the southern regions namely //Karas (12 May) and Hardap (15 May), respectively. The main aim of these meetings remain to consult with relevant stakeholders, to allow them to form part of the discussions and in turn inform required decisions and solutions; understand stakeholder focus on issues pertaining to specific economic matters; an exchange of ideas on how the Ministry can be of support especially in areas within its mandate and how growth in industrial capacity can be achieved. The Ministry is looking forward to meaningful participation at the upcoming public engagements. The venues will be confirmed prior to the events.
The previous public dialogue made meaningful contributions on the subject of discussion and the Ministry will incorporate such significant ideas into Ministerial plans, programs and strategies. The public, business community and interested stakeholders are encouraged to attend. The effort is primarily aimed at fostering accelerated growth for economic activities in the country and all inputs from stakeholders will form part of the Ministry’s Industrial implementation strategy.
