10.1Since the responsibility for the PALCs has shifted from the PEDs to the DHET, the current PALCs have been deemed to be Community Education and Training Colleges in terms of section 25(2)(b) of the Continuing Education and Training Act, 2006.

 

10.2All the deemed Community Education and Training Colleges have been merged to become CLCs of the 9 newly established and distinct provincially-based CETCACs  after consultation with PALCs. This was gazetted in Government Gazette No. 38674 of 7 April 2015.

 

10.2A Community Education and Training College shall normally be a multi-centre institution and, subject to approval by the Minister, it may be expanded or rationalised through a process of Community Education and Training College mergers or demergers.
