I submit this report reflecting on the devastating impact COVID-19 had on world, and more specifically Cederberg. The impact of COVID- 19 has affected the work of the Auditor-General and adversely affected service delivery to our communities during the hard lockdown under level five. During the last financial year Council was politically stable and could we focus on the core business of the Municipality. Feedback from residents, ward committees, intergovernmental and other stakeholders enables us to identify key trends and drivers of development, or under development. The diversity of the Cederberg area creates a unique variety of challenges and the Municipality strives to act within the parameters of a long term vision, understanding the challenges and taking into consideration inherited and current conditions. As a Municipality we strive to ensure proper alignment of our policies, budget and strategic plans. This is done, taking into consideration that all three spheres of government need to plan, development and implement service delivery plans to benefit the communities we serve. Council took corrective action by ensuring that listed Key Performance Indicators are properly aligned with the IDP and Budget and that these KPI’s are met. This was done through continuous assessment, evaluation and monitoring process we put in place. As Executive Mayor of Cederberg Muncipality and collective leadership we are focused on ensuring that the SDBIP, Budget and IDP are implemented to ensure we are improving on our service delivery standards. Public participation is at the heart of the Council and administration of Cederberg Municipality. We believe to plan with the people for the people. Through ensuring genuine public participation in municipal affairs, we are promoting collective good governance. In doing so we are allowing directly involved in the governance processes and taking ownership of service delivery within our area. The community could make inputs or give feedback through our social media platforms, suggestions, complaints, ward committees and public participation meetings. It is with this that I will work tirelessly to maintain clean and good corporate governance as a cardinal pillar for serving the people of Cederberg Municipality. We need to improve the delivery of core municipal services through the application of efficient and effective service delivery mechanisms, and the application of sound financial management principles. It is essential and critical to ensure that the Municipality remains financially viable and that sustainable municipal services are provided
