Welcome Note
The core function of the directorate is to render administrative support to the district municipality and the development of capacity of staff and councillors both at district municipality and the local municipality level.
In the year under review the directorate made some advancement in an effort to achieve its stated objectives. To strengthen its administrative support it had ensured that the district municipality complies with the relevant legislation in many areas. The directorate continued to discharge its obligation of training staff and councillors whilst rendering capacity support to local municipalities. To regulate that area of operation a number of policies were reviewed and developed. For the first time the district municipality adopted a Water Services Bylaw as way of strengthening the democratic rule and better provision of services to the people.
Having said so, it is a challenge to equip the district municipality with the number of policies and bylaws it needs to use as a Water Services Authority. Furthermore, it needed to adjust its Intergovernmental Relations (IGR) structures and operations to the Intergovernmental Relations Framework Act. All the activities of the directorate were geared to achieve the following objectives.
