22 SDG ORGANISATIONAL ARRANGEMENTS SDG Process SDG Process MAP In September 2010 the Cabinet directed Statistics South Africa (Stats SA) to institutionalise participation in the MDG reporting processes. As part of progressive improvement, the governance structures for the MDG report writing process were expanded to reinforce the existing reporting structure. Previously the National Coordinating Committee (NCC), the Technical Working Group (TWG), and the Sectoral Working Groups (SWGs) were the structures responsible for drafting the report. From the feedback of Civil Society, the following structures were added in the writing of the report: The Report Drafting Team (RDT) and; Expanded Report Drafting Team (ERDT) who consisted largely of Civil Society representatives and report authors. SDG process will follow a similar pattern, with functional changes to the type and structure of the SWGs to accommodate new and expanded areas.
