In terms of section 34 of the Local Government : Municipal Systems Act ( Act No. 32 of 2000), “ a municipal council must review in accordance its Integrated development plan – (i) annually in accordance with an assessment of its performance measurements in terms of section 41; and (ii) to the extent that changing circumstances so demand; and may amend its IDP in accordance with a prescribed process plan. The basic mandates and requirements for the 2006/2007 IDP Review are as follows: (a) Alignment of the budget and PMS to the IDP (b) Incorporation of the MEC’s comments (c) Inclusion of the required Sector Plans (d) Inclusion of the weaknesses and shortcomings identified through the self-assessment 2 3 2.

  • 'It Was the Best Oftimes, It Was the Worst Oftimes '1
    'It was the best oftimes, it was the worst oftimes '1 Natal and the Anglo-Boer War of1899-19022 At the outbreak of the Anglo-Boer War the British colony of Natal stood to gain and to lose by virtue of its geographical position, and duly did both as the ensuing conflict unfolded. The territory was obviously vulnerable to Boer invasion, yet the support of its inhabitants for the British war effort was not as axiomatic as might be supposed. The reaction of the colony's African majority to the prospect of war was not recorded, though many were to be affected and some actively involved in what was supposed to be a whites-only conflict. Most white Natalians were slow to rally to the flag as they wrestled with ambivalent feelings towards the Boer republics and uncertainty concerning the sincerity of aggressive imperial diplomacy in southern Africa. Significantly, perhaps, when war was declared less than 20% of the colony's white adult male popUlation of military age (20 to 40 years old) enlisted for service, excluding the existing rifle associations which were on standby.3 Pre-war sentiment Whi le the imperial defeats of 1881, CLl lminating at Majuba, still rankled in loyalist hearts, by the 1890s Natal inescapably depended more than ever before upon the overberg trade as a source of both public and private income. President Kruger was wamily received when he visited the colony in April 1891 to celebrate the completion ofthe main Natal railway line to Charlestown on the Transvaal border.4 By then more than 62% of Natal's imports, upon which customs duties and railway rates were levied, were bound for the interior republics.

  • Remembering the Estcourt – Weenen Line 1906
    REMEMBERING THE ESTCOURT – WEENEN LINE 1906 – 1983 Bruno Martin Published by the RAILWAY HISTORY SOCIETY, an interest group of the Railway Society of Southern Africa (Natal Branch) Founded 1960 “Travelling on this little train of the thorn country is a real experience. It is certainly the only train in the world which gives the right of way to pythons. The inoffensive reptiles are common in the surrounding bush and the train always does its best to stop and allow them to cross the line. Numerous rock rabbits and various antelopes also have their homes along the track.” - TV Bulpin, Treasure of Travels Series, 5: Johannesburg to Durban, 1973. NGG13 no. 78 about to leave Weenen for Estcourt on 3 March 1979, with Driver Billy Bester in discussion. Photo: Don Baker More than a quarter of a century has passed since the narrow-gauge railway between Estcourt and Weenen was closed. The last revenue-earning service departed unceremoniously from Weenen station on Wednesday afternoon, 31 August 1983. On Monday, 5 September, the remaining goods wagons were retrieved from Weenen and the very last working was for weed spraying on Saturday, 5 October.
