Dear Sir or Madam,
NOTICE OF EXTENSION: GRANT PAYMENT SERVICE PROVIDER CONTRACT FOR NORTH WEST PROVINCE

As a result of this, SASSA replaced the North West Province as a party to the service level agreement entered into with Cash Paymaster Services (North West) (Proprietary) Limited (the service provider) in June 2001. The function of the payment of grants and the responsibility and accountability therefore, now resides with SASSA. | |

2.2 | the duration of the Agreement is hereby further extended until 31 March 2009 on the same terms and conditions on which the Agreement was entered into, provided that SASSA will have the right to: |
