Home Affairs IT Infrastructure Ready For World Cup

Published Jul 5, 2009
THE Department of Home Affairs has declared its information technology systems ready ahead of the FIFA 2010 World Cup that South Africa will host next year.

“As Honourable Members will recall and this is already in the public domain, the Who Am I Online Project, which is intended to integrate our IT systems as a whole was, at our request, investigated by the Auditor General and, based on the AG’s findings, a decision has been made to conduct a forensic investigation,” said deputy minister Malusi Gigaba as he addressed Parliament on Thursday.

“However, 2010 IT preparations are advanced and we are confident that we will have our IT infrastructure ready to facilitate the movement of keen soccer fans”.

He said Information Services constitute one of the most important and strategic areas of our work that provide essential support to Home Affairs’ core business.

”Our key target for this financial year is to build the required organisational capacity and stability in the branch, through the appointment of competent senior leadership,” Gigaba added.
