Last night the City of Cape Town won best Integrated Annual Report in South Africa in the public sector category at the JSE Integrated Reporting Awards (for our 22/23 report). I have the privilege of leading the production of this report. In early 2022 we benchmarked our report against South African and international cities, and obtained areas of improvement which we acted on. We want stakeholders to find the report concise, reliable, and complete, while also telling a story that demonstrates how our organisation, a municipal government, creates value. Thank you to the JSE for the recognition and to everyone in Team Cape Town that contributed to this success. The report reflects on value creation from all of us.
