The Financial and Fiscal Commission (FFC) reiterated its previous recommendation that there should be a link between the Municipal Infrastructure Grant and the Local Government Equitable Shares (LES). This is such that, as infrastructure is rolled out through the MIG allocations to municipalities, and those from the LES reflect the need associated with the infrastructure that is been rolled out. This would eliminate the current challenge where municipalities roll out infrastructure without having the necessary funding to maintain it. Moreover, the performance of the Neighborhood Development Grant needs to be reviewed given its poor spending over the years.
