Deputy Speaker, Minister, isn't there a monitoring system in the provinces or can we not develop a system in which we can be proactive in arresting the imminent collapse of municipalities instead of reacting only when there is a crisis in municipalities? Is there not a way in which we can react before the crisis is in place? Thank you very much.
The MINISTER OF CO-OPERATIVE GOVERNANCE AND TRADITIONAL
AFFAIRS: Yes, I think you are right when you say, isn't there a mechanism in the provinces because that is their prerogative but the Constitution indicates that you can intervene by supporting the municipalities under section 154 but if that fails you have to intervene differently then. But, the intervention can also come from the Treasury's side. I think to be honest with you, sitting where we are, we can see the problems in many of the municipalities.
