BACK TO BASICS

The Central Committee (CC) of the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM), the biggest decision-making body of the organisation outside congress will meet on 2 to 3 June 2016 at the Saint George Hotel in Pretoria. The CC rally will be held on the 4th of June 2016 at Driefontein in Carletonville. Over 700 delegates from the branches of the NUM throughout South Africa will attend.

The Central Committee will focus on the organisational, economic, political and international matters facing the organisation.

This year ‘s theme is "Growth, Retention, Unity and Quality Service to members".

The African National Congress (ANC) Secretary General Gwede Mantashe, South African Communist Party (SACP) General Secretary Blade Nzimande, Cosatu Deputy General Secretary Solly Phetoe, Public Enterprise Minister Lynne Brown will address the Central Committee.

The NUM is extremely disappointed that Mineral Resources Minister Mosebenzi Zwane has declined to address the Central Committee. We are also disappointed that the minister as the custodian of the mining industry did not see it fit to delegate someone to represent him.There are capable leaders from the DMR who can come and address the NUM Central Committee.

The media is hereby invited to attend and report. For accreditation purposes, members of the media can send their details i.e names, photos, and the name of the media house where they work to lmammburu@num.org.za or mammburuu@gmail.com.
