Hawks investigating three Western Cape municipalities

Hawks investigating three Western Cape municipalities Share Cape Town - The Hawks are following up reports that have emerged from three of the Western Cape’s 30 municipalities – Bitou, George and the Central Karoo District Municipality, which have been investigated for corruption in the last year. The status update was the first of a series of quarterly updates from the provincial department of local government to the legislature on the status of all section 106 investigations. These investigations cover non-performance and maladministration. The department’s specialised support director Gary Birch told the local government standing committee that the Matzikama municipality and the department were in litigation over the MEC’s right to appoint independent investigators under the Municipal Systems Act.

Local government in South Africa is broken: but giving the job to residents carries risks

In December 2020, the High Court in Mahikeng, the capital of South Africa’s North West Province, made a controversial order after finding that the Kgetlengrivier Local Municipality was in breach of its legal obligations. The municipality had failed to deliver water and sanitation. It had also failed to prevent environmental pollution in the towns of Koster and Swartruggens. The court issued an interim order that the municipal manager be jailed for 90 days, unless the municipality urgently restored water services and stopped sewage flowing into the local rivers. It also ordered that, unless the municipality acted quickly, a local residents’ association could take control of the water and sewerage systems. The state would then have to pay the residents for doing the municipality’s job.
