The Committee pointed out the need to ensure that all role players involved in the grant's implementation understand the aims, objectives and conditions underpinning the MWIG. In particular, SALGA should play a central supporting role in the implementation of the grant given the expert knowledge that SALGA possess on conditions prevailing in the local government sphere. The Committee highlighted the need to elevate the role of local municipalities given that Water Service Authorities may in some instances not possess the necessary capacity to undertake planned projects.
