Ramaphosa will address the nation in the National Assembly on Thursday afternoon when he responds to questions posed by members of Parliament.

In September, the president announced an emergency five-point action plan to deal with the scourge of gender-based violence.

When he announced this emergency action plan, he promised an interim committee in his office would focus on its swift implementation.

The measures included setting up a fund to help address gender-based violence, reviewing laws to prioritise the needs and interests of survivors and strengthening the criminal justice system.

The plan further included overhauling the national register of offenders and making changes to the school curriculum to include gender power relations among others.

Ramaphosa will on Thursday announce how far his government is with implementing these measures.

His office said he would also provide an update on the implementation of the land reform programme, the economic stimulus and recovery plan.
