'As a result of the dispute, the landlord has locked Sassa out of the office on multiple occasions – most recently on Monday, 2 June, and the premises remain inaccessible.
'To ensure continued service delivery and minimise disruption to our valued clients, Sassa has partnered with the KZN Department of Social Development,' she said.
Sassa clients can visit the Pongola Social Development Local Offices at 1 New Republic Pongola.
'Sassa officials have been deployed to these temporary offices to provide uninterrupted assistance from Mondays to Fridays.
'We are working tirelessly in conjunction with the relevant stakeholders to reach an amicable and lasting resolution that prioritises the needs of our clients. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience caused,' said Mzobe.
