The Committee recommends that the Department should give further consideration to the following issues: . National Treasury, when allocating funds for infrastructure projects to the Department, should at the same time as part of the allocation, make a Conditional Grant allocation to the relevant Municipality, in order for the project to be fully funded from the beginning through completion, rather than leaving it to the municipality to arrange separate funding for its infrastructure from the Department's bulk infrastructure to its clients. . What does one do with the gap in required supply of water in areas, most notably in eThekwini, when new augmentation projects only come into service after demand has already exceeded supply?. . The Department should review the outcome and spending on the Hartbeespoort Dam remediation project before allocating the programme an additional R50m in expenditure in the 2012/2013 financial year.
