(1)(a) Communal Properties Associations (CPAs) are supported to present annual reports and financial statements at the Annual General Meeting of its members.
In instances where allegations of financial mismanagement are reported investigations are done by the department and where necessary, the CPA can be put under administration.
(b) Proper training of all CPA members including their executive committee on governance, business development and financial accountability is necessary.

Mediation is also central in austerity in the management of conflicts and look at possible actions in isolating disputes.
Timelines will differ based on each CPA and its challenges.
