This is an integrated report of the discussions on the Strategy and Tactics document in the 11 Commissions of the 5th National Policy Conference.

It should be noted that before the Conference, the documents were discussed in branches, regions and provinces, in the Leagues and the Alliance and written comments on the draft were submitted. While many of these were articulated in the Commissions, the NEC Political Education Subcommittee will process all the submissions, along with comments from other interactions.

Amendments arising from these discussions will be forwarded to the branches for further processing and final consideration at the 54th National Conference in December 2017.

It is the view of the Commissions that the discussions were both thorough-going and incisive, again confirming both the interest and capacity of cadres of the ANC and the broad liberation movement to engage fundamental issues facing the country and the forces of fundamental change.

This report reflects the major issues canvassed in the various Commissions; and the detailed Commission Reports will be processed along with all other relevant documentation.
