There are no plans to reshuffle Cabinet Ministers, a presidential spokesperson said on Sunday.

Zizi Kodwa was responding to a report in the Sunday Times that President Jacob Zuma planned to make changes to his Cabinet, including removing under-performing Ministers.

Zuma further reportedly intended to meet with the Ministers individually next month in this regard.

In his closing speech at the ANC national general council in Durban, Zuma said: "We emphasise that laziness, lack of commitment and failure to deliver by those entrusted with serving our people will not be tolerated."

However, Kodwa said that there were no planned periodical evaluations of ministers, because this was an ongoing process since they took up office.

It was normal for the President to regularly meet ministers, and there was nothing new about requesting individual meetings with them.

Some of those that the newspaper said could be on the firing line, were Correctional Services Minister Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula, Intelligence Minister Siyabonga Cwele, Public Service and Administration's Richard Baloyi and Women, Youth, Children and the Disabled's Noluthando Mayende-Sibiya.

Cwele and Mapisa-Nqakula's spokespersons denied any knowledge of a meeting with Zuma about an imminent reshuffle. Baloyi's office referred media queries to the Presidency.

Mayende-Sibiya's spokesperson could not immediately be reached for comment.
