  • Cles Scholars on the Move
    INTERACTIVE NAVIGATION Editorial Dear Reader, It’s almost surreal that we are already in the third quarter of the year. With less than five months left of 2019, we certainly hope that you have had just as exciting, productive, informative and adventure-filled few months as the CLES-team has had. We are therefore glad to be able to let you in, in the second issue of CLES InPress, on the activities that went down here at CLES. As you will see, the CLES team has been travelling nationally and internationally, adding much value to our research. There have been many developments in the realm of cities, law, and environmental sustainability in the last few months. South Africa recently submitted its first Voluntary National Review (VNR) on its progress in the implementation of Agenda 2030 on Sustainable Development. Significant progress has been made on the implementation “We are excited for of SDG 11 in making the first CLES and cities and human SALGA Annual National settlements inclusive, Postgraduate Student safe, resilient, and sustainable. However, Conference ” the VNR points out that fragmentation remains an issue of concern. The City of Cape Town has been in the news for a variety that they are made up of warm bodies who see to the of reasons, including fighting for a right to purchase effective functioning of duties extending beyond mere power from independent power producers (IPPs) rather service delivery. It is often underestimated how much than solely from Eskom, and the drafting of a beach goes into the day-to-day functioning of municipalities by-law for the protection of its coastline.

  • The Case of the Amathole District Municipality
    SUSTAINED POOR AUDIT OUTCOMES: THE CASE OF THE AMATHOLE DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY Jacobus S Wessels, Makhosandile H Kwaza and Edwin Ijeoma Sponsored by the European Union under the NSG's Public Service Training & Capacity Building Programme Disclaimer: 'This publication was produced with the financial support of the European Union. Its contents are the sole responsibility of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of the European Union' 1 SUSTAINED POOR AUDIT OUTCOMES: THE CASE OF THE AMATHOLE DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY Jacobus S Wessels1, Makhosandile H Kwaza2 and Edwin Ijeoma3 ABSTRACT It is generally accepted that reliable financial statements and credible reporting on the activities of government institutions are necessary for the continued improvement of their services to the public. Within the South African context, the Auditor-General of South Africa recently reported that only a few municipalities obtained clean audit reports. In fact, the drive towards clean municipal audit outcomes initiated by the South African government in 2009 evidently failed. Subsequently, this study set out to obtain a deepened understanding of why municipalities repeatedly fail to achieve clean audit outcomes. For this purpose, the Amathole District Municipality and its constituted local municipalities were selected as a case for this study. The reviewed material consisted of a rich collection of audit reports, annual reports, regulatory documents, and a wide variety of other official documents. In addition, the findings of a survey amongst municipal officials and councillors also informed this study. As a result, enduring and deep-rooted systemic leadership deficiencies, financial and performance management restraints, and ineffective and inefficient governance structures were revealed.
