As newly appointed Mayor of this Municipality I take this very seriously. My priority is to ensure that financial viability and functionality is at the forefront of all that we do and free from the rudi- ments of fraud and corruption. The reinstatement of the Finance Committee under the leadership of the Deputy Mayor, Cllr Belinda Scott is the start to making things right. This dedicated platform is to play an oversight on Municipal finances and related matters. I have every faith given her experience that this committee is in very capable hands. As public servants our role is to uphold good gover- nance and transparency and to manage public funds efficiently and but most important, we must be held accountable as we are entrusted with budgets that t is indeed a great honour to welcome you to our directly affect the quality of lives of our people.
