Chairperson, I hereby give notice that on the next sitting day of the Council I shall move on behalf of the DA:
That the Council -
1) notes that it is shocking to see that not a single municipality of the 24 in the North West province had a clean report from the Auditor-General during the previous financial year;
2) further notes that only 10 of the 24 municipalities managed to submit their records for audit in the 2009-10 financial year;
3) recognises that most of the municipalities used consultants and yet they still got disclaimers, and the same consultants were then allowed to continue for the following financial year; and
4) requests an investigation into the hiring of friends and relatives to do the consultants' work in the North West province.
