 * SACP TO HOLD AN AUGMENTED CENTRAL COMMITTEE**

The South African Communist Party (SACP) is to hold its Augmented Central Committee meeting this coming weekend, from Friday 25 November – Sunday 27 November 2005. This is an extended meeting to be attended by about 150 participants, including our national officials, elected members of the Central Committee, Provincial Secretarites and Chairpersons, District Secretaries, provincial and gender organisers, and the national working committee of the Young Communist League.

For the SACP the Augmented CC is a very important gathering as it is the last Central Committee for 2005.

The Augmented CC will reflect on the following main issues:

(1) Receive and discuss a political report on current political and economic developments in our country

(2) A political evaluation of the year, including our mass campaigns, and adoption of our 2006 Programme of Action

(3) Receive a report and discuss the recent ANC NEC decisions and decisions from COSATU CEC

(4) Table a Discussion Document to guide the Central Committee Commission looking into the question of the relationship of the SACP to political and state power, including electoral options

(5) Discuss and refine our local government elections strategy in support of an overwhelming victory for the ANC

The Augmented Central Committee will be followed by a Press conference which is scheduled as follows:

Date: Sunday, 27 November 2005

Venue: Randburg Inn Towers, (Cnr Republic Road and Main Avenue) Randburg

Time: 12h00

All media is invited to the Press conference.
