Department of Local Government Plan 0/ Date of tabling: March 0 Provincial Government of the Western Cape

Foreword My Department is responsible for delivering on Strategic Objective 0, Integrating Service Delivery for Maximum Impact. This Strategic Objective has been mainstreamed in my Department's Plan, which sets out our plans to achieve the following: Integrated planning and budgeting between the three spheres of government; Coordinated reporting on and support to municipalities to ensure that they are fully functional; and Integrated service delivery through the Thusong and Community Development Programmes. Together with other provincial departments and municipalities, the Department is already working on achieving these objectives. During 0/, our focus will be on strengthening and extending existing programmes to increase the impact of our work. For example, the Department will strengthen the implementation of the Integrated Development Planning (IDP) Indaba, which coordinates the plans and budgets of municipalities, provincial departments, and a few national departments. We will extend this to include even more national departments in the coming year. The Department will continue to deploy expertise to municipalities in the areas of organisational design, performance management, and change management, and in addition will provide support on the codification of bylaws and rollout of a new property rates manual. As part of supporting municipalities with bulk infrastructure, the Department will continue to support municipalities to spend 00% of their Municipal Infrastructure Grant (MIG) allocations, and will deepen and extend its technical advice and support on bulk water and sanitation projects. The Provincial Disaster Management Centre has experienced considerable success in responding quickly and effectively to wild fires in the current fire season, and this will be improved even further during 0/. This initiative will be extended to include an awareness programme on fire prevention in informal settlements, with the aim of reducing the loss of life and property in these devastating fires. The focus on prevention also applies to disaster management more generally, and the Centre will work together with provincial departments and municipalities to improve the awareness of their disaster risks and to develop preparedness and prevention plans. We will also increase the search and rescue capacity in the Province through the further training of Special Operations Response Team (SORT) units. To ensure that residents of the Province have access to government services, the Department has developed a plan to extend the Thusong Programme to include Thusong Zones, Centres, Satellites, Mobiles, and an Extension Service. Existing Thusong services will be extended over the coming years to ensure coverage of all residents in the Province. Community Development Workers play a key role in mobilising people to access services through the Thusong Programme, and they will continue to provide information sessions and to support government projects. To ensure that communities play their role and that municipal communication with them is improved, the Department will complete its training of all Ward Committee members and will support municipalities in the development and implementation of their communication strategies. Better together will only be achieved when all parties play their respective roles, and my Department will continue to play a critical role in coordinating this.

Part A: Strategic Overview Part A: Strategic Overview 5. Organisational Environment 5.. Administration Some financial and administrative functions of the Department are provided by the Department of Human Settlements on an agency basis until all corporate services posts are filled in the new Department of Local Government. The Department appointed a CFO in 0 and is in the process of filling other financial management posts. 5... Local Governance 5... Municipal Administration Local Government elections took place on 8 May 0. The Department, in conjunction with the Independent Electoral Commission guided and supported municipalities in convening their first meeting of council after the local government elections. Local municipalities that were not won outright by one political party, resulted in coalition governments being formed. This outcome has the potential for instability and since the elections these challenges have presented themselves. The Department will continue to provide the required support during 0/0. On 5 July 0 the Local Government: Municipal Systems Amendment Act 7 of 0 came into being. The main purpose of the Act is to ensure that suitably qualified, experienced and competent managers are appointed in municipalities. The Minister of Local Government must receive reports on each appointment and apply his mind thereto and forward these reports to the National Minister within days of receipt. The Act also attempts to promote good governance by placing a ban on the appointment of persons who have been found guilty of financial misconduct. During 0/0 the Department m a n a g e d t h e a d d i t i o n a l a d m i n i s t r a t i v e responsibilities. Corruption is an ongoing problem in municipalities and the Department's efforts to prevent and reduce corruption during 0/0 will be intensified. The interventions will be informed by the anticorruption survey commissioned by the Department during the first quarter of 0. The results showed that training and awareness need to have a wider reach and must never be underestimated in fighting corruption. The Western Cape Privileges and Immunities of Councillors Act was promulgated on December 0. The Act gives effect to section 6 of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, 996 and to section 8 of the Local Government: Municipal Structures Act, 998 (Act 7 of 998), by defining the privileges and immunities of municipal councillors in the Western Cape. The Act goes hand in hand with the Rules of Order which the Department is in the process of finalising as a Standard Rules of Order Bylaw. The recent disruptions and chaos in council meetings is evidence that the Department must provide support and assistance in this regard. The public participation process that gave councillors the opportunity to comment on the Privileges and Immunities Act also illustrated a lack of understanding of the Rules of Order and the purpose of the Act. During 0/0 the Department will promote understanding of the new Act and how it relates to the Rules of Order. 5... Public Participation The Department places a strong emphasis on enhancing participatory democracy through active citizen participation in local government. In support, the Department has developed a Provincial Framework for Functional and Effective Ward Committee Systems which gives guidance to municipalities on the development of municipal ward committee processes and policies. Incorporated in the framework are: The model for the payment of OutofPocket Expenses for ward committees. Linked to the model are ward committee functionality indicators to assess and monitor functionality and sustainability. The Ward Committee Accountability and Communication Model seeks to address municipal turnaround times in dealing with service delivery issues emanating from ward committee meetings and the functioning of communication channels from and to communities. Western Cape Provincial Department of Local Government

The framework served as the basis in preparing municipalities for the launching of their ward committees. The Department was actively involved in supporting municipalities with their ward committee establishment processes. In supporting municipalities with strengthening ward committee functionality, the Department is rolling out capacitybuilding/induction programmes to all ward committee members. Training includes aspects such as key municipal processes, local government legislation, ward committee roles and responsibilities, conflict management and role of committee members in ward development programmes. Given that Municipal Communication is an integral part of Public Participation, the Department supports municipalities to integrate communication into all municipal processes via the development or improvement of their Communication Strategies. A sound Communication Strategy ensures that information about municipal services and projects are provided to communities and, equally, those residents' concerns are communicated to municipalities. Additionally, ed support is provided to ensure the functionality of District Public Participation and Communication Forums to allow for the sharing of good practices and information as well as collaborative planning. service delivery and impacts on the ability of a municipality to comply with legislative requirements and spend its capital budget. The Department's capacity support programme has taken cognisance of these challenges and in response, the Department designed a number of impactdriven projects to support municipalities. These crosscutting projects aim to instil and improve systems and structures that will positively impact on governance. These projects include the following: A dedicated municipal bursary programme for youth in the rural areas of the Province; A support framework to ensure that the Province is able to move towards a single window of support ; and Deployment expertise from the Pool of Expertise to support key technical projects such as organisational design, change management and performance management systems. 5... Municipal, Monitoring, Reporting and Evaluation Legislation states that a Provincial Department of Local Government must establish mechanisms, processes and procedures to monitor municipalities in the Province in managing their own affairs and performing their functions. In fulfilling this mandate, the Department developed a Monitoring, Evaluation & 5...

Part A: Strategic Overview Plan 00 5

Part A: Strategic Overview Part A: Strategic Overview 5... Integrated Development Planning The next few years promise to be a dynamic and somewhat unpredictable period for IDPs. The release of the census data, the recent finalisation of the National Development Plan and the finalisation of other provincial planning mechanisms in the middle of the fiveyear term will have an impact on the review of municipal IDPs. The current implementation of the IDP Indaba remains one of the core deliverables for the Department to realise its vision of being the single window of coordination. The Department believes that the IDP Indaba will gain strength in the next five years. The strategic partnerships with key sectors are slowly gaining momentum. With respect to rd Generation IDPs, the Department will provide guidelines and also intends to provide capacitybuilding to ensure the implementation of the guidelines. Ultimately, the Department seeks to enlarge its footprint in municipalities in providing support on IDPs. More communities have not seen real tangible differences in their communities and the implementation of area/neighbourhoodbased plans are promising to fill this gap. To this end, the Department, with the support from the DBSA, succeeded in securing funding from the National Treasury's Neighbourhood Development Partnership Grant with an allocation of R million to each of five municipalities to fund a catalytic project as part of the development of the area/neighbourhood based plans. While this funding is not guaranteed for the next financial year, the Department is hopeful that the impact of the current funds may yield a positive response from National Government. 6 Western Cape Provincial Department of Local Government
