The intervention team in Managung Metropolitan Municipality is not empowered to determine whether motions of no confidence in elected office bearers may be allowed or not, while the intervention is in place. Thus, the scope and responsibilities of the intervention team are mainly related to the implementation of the Financial Recovery Plan, and not extended to cover matters relating to political decisions, and thus, Municipal Council resolutions on whether or not to remove an elected office bearer is not part of the implementation of the Financial Recovery Plan. The procedural requirements pertaining to a political decision that a Municipal Council is entitled to take, are prescribed in sections 29, 30, 40 and 58 of the Municipal Structures Act, No. 117 of 1998.
