  • Municipal Water Debt solutions; with Deputy Ministers 5 Nov 2019

    Mr L Basson (DA) stressed that the presentation is just words on paper. The same meeting was held in previous years and it is not helping. The department cannot force municipalities to pay.

  • CLUSTER 2: SOCIAL SERVICES (Subject for Discussion) 20 Nov 2019

    Thank you for the reply, Minister. Minister, the Vaal River is one of 82% of this country's rivers that has been polluted by 84% of wastewater treatment works in this country, which are dumping 4,2 million litres of sewage in our rivers everyday. Minister, what are you going ...

  • THE DEPUTY MINISTER OF HUMAN SETTLEMENTS, WATER AND SANITATION: 9 Jul 2019

    No, I am not. There has been surprisingly little innovation in the field of housing within the Department of Human Settlement. Disadvantaged communities in poverty and unemployment are trapped and they are robbed of secure livelihood.

    Minister, there is no time for you to dream like the President. It's ...
