The Sassa Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant is disbursed to roughly 7.5 million people each month, according to Social Development Minister Lindiwe Zulu. On Monday, Zulu gave an update on the SRD grant and the Child Support Grant (CSG) Top-Up.
October is designated as Social Development Month, with the theme "United in the Fight Against Poverty and Other Social Ills" used to mark the occasion.
Zulu also expressed regret to recipients and applicants of the R350 grant for the difficulties they faced when the regulations under the National State of Disaster expired.
This is because the department converted from the regulations of the Disaster Management Act to those of the Social Assistance Act, which made it easier to implement the SRD grant benefit.
