i This submission is a culmination of a series of three interactive workshops open to grassroots organisations including youth and women conducted around three townships (Mamelodi, Atteridgeville, and Garankuwa) in the City of Tshwane during May/June 2010 aimed at assessing the impact of public information on local development and local democracy by examining either enacted or proposed laws or policies on information. The submission is a result of collaborative efforts by three community-based organisations working on the subject of development communication.
