Going concern details: Although there was no going concern problems reported in the audit report, the AG would like to bring to attention the municipality's deteriorating financial position. The ratio of the municipality's current assets to current liabilities decreased from two hundred and seventy three (273) percent in 2009 to fifty nine (59) percent in 2010 and to thirty four (34) percent in 2011. Short term deposits decreased with seventy (70) percent from seventy three million Rand (R73 million) to twenty two million Rand (R22 million) in the 2011 financial year. Should these trends continue, the municipality's going concern position would be at risk.
