Deputy Chairperson, I move without notice:
That the Council -
1) notes that, following the Auditor-General's consolidated report on municipalities in the various provinces, the Free State province, followed by the Northern Cape, was the worst province in South Africa, with 18 municipalities receiving either disclaimers, adverse or qualified reports; and
2) further notes that this state of affairs is shocking, to say the least, and trusts that the voters of the Free State province will take note and elect honest and responsible councillors and a good administration in next year's local government elections
