The Portfolio Committee is responsible for conducting oversight on local government, and in exercising its mandate the Portfolio Committee believes there is a need for accelerated and effective delivery of municipal services to communities. Poor performance, poor service delivery, maladministration, alleged corrupt and unethical conduct by officials are amongst some of the challenges widely reported on within the various municipalities. Participating in the upcoming local government elections empowers communities to elect their own local government representatives and contribute towards improved service delivery.
