Councillors play a very central role which requires the identification of community needs, setting objectives to meet those needs, establishing priorities between competing demands and allocating resources. However, we are concerned by the delayed by-election of ward 22 of Abaqulusi Municipality in the town of Vryheid, in KwaZulu-Natal. This matter must be put to rest so that people in that ward can have their representative. We also sent our condolences ... [Time expired.] Thank you. [Applause.]
