The Constitutional Mandate that is illustrated and defined in terms of Schedule 4 and 5 Part B of the Constitution is a written delegation issued to Local Government. It remains of primary importance that to achieve and sustain high standards in municipal governance and management the "new normal" must place reliance and dependence in an enabling environment that is created and strengthened by effective Institutional Functionality within the municipality.
The crux is that Local Government is the Delivery Arm of Government and hence all governance, management and institutional components must function at an optimal standard to monitor performance and to sound the "early warning alert signals" against weaknesses and deficiencies. The key is to simultaneously limit, control and eliminate the institutional, governance and management risks to maintain alignment to the approved work outputs, results and performance.
The Constitutional Mandate requires all municipalities to place priority in the following key areas, namely
?
1. To coordinate implementation of the Institutional and Infrastructure Service Delivery Plan to
"Progressively Improve the Lives of the Citizens" with basic municipal
services that would create household stability with a conducive living environment.
2. To implement new measures to create, monitor, enhance and strengthen all key components to
achieve effective Institutional and Governance functionality within the Municipalities. This would
include implementing a Graduation Programme with appropriate measures to continuously
improve the knowledge, conceptual understanding and technical capability of Municipal Officials
to plan, undertake and manage the work output on budget, financial and general matters of the
MFMA and its Regulations and all other relevant legislation at Local Government level.
3. To continuously implement measures to protect, safeguard, strengthen and progressively
achieve expansion of the Municipal Tax Base that would demonstrate correlation with the
Municipal Fiscal Framework. In addition the aforementioned must be supported by certainty and
stability by the Fiscal Capacity and Fiscal Effort.
