  • Funding Sources for Municipalities Was Compiled
    PREFACE The South African Constitution and the Municipal Structures Act spells out the powers and functions of local government in terms of providing municipal infrastructure and rendering prescribed basic services to local populations. Also, in terms of the Local Government Municipal Systems Act (Act No. 32 of 2000) (“MSA”), the objective is “to build local government into an efficient, frontline development agency capable of integrating the activities of all spheres of government for the overall social and economic upliftment of communities adapted to their local natural environment” and to promote a type of development that is sustainable “and includes integrated social, economic, environmental, spatial, infrastructural, institutional, organisational and human resources upliftment of a community aimed at- (a) improving the quality of life of its members with specific reference to the poor and other disadvantaged sections of the community; and (b) ensuring that development serves present and future generations”. In order to achieve this, funding is required that surpasses the capabilities of municipalities and what they are able to rake in through their revenue generating mechanisms or what they receive as provincial and national government allocations. However, various sources of grants, loans and funding exist with a mandate that is in line with core infrastructure and service areas of municipalities. Many municipalities are either uninformed of these funding sources and/or lack the resources and capacity required to access the funding. Accessing the different funding sources are further complicated by the diverse and sometimes complex procedural protocols. It is for this express purpose that different role-players have identified the need for support to be provided to municipalities to better access funding.

    In the aftermath of xenophobia: a critical discourse analysis 2014 In the aftermath of xenophobia: a critical discourse analysis Christina Aletta Els Submitted in fulfilment of the requirement for the degree D.Phil. Linguistics in the Faculty of Humanities, Department of English at the University of the Free State Supervisor: Dr M. Kriel Co-Supervisor: Prof A.J. Weideman In the aftermath of xenophobia: a critical discourse analysis 2014 July 2014 “We are the scatterlings of Africa Both you and I We are on the road to Phelamanga Beneath a copper sky And we are scatterlings of Africa ...who made us, here and why? (Lyrics from Johnny Cleggs’s album Scatterlings of Africa.) The limits of my language are the limits of my world (Die grenzen meiner sprache sind die grenzen meiner welt). (Ludwig Wittgenstein, 1922). ii In the aftermath of xenophobia: a critical discourse analysis 2014 DECLARATION I, Christina Aletta Els, declare that the thesis that I herewith submit for the Doctorate D.Phil. Linguistics at the University of the Free State, is my own independent work and that I have not previously submitted it for a qualification at another institution of higher education. I furthermore cede copyright of the thesis in favour of the University of the Free State. iii In the aftermath of xenophobia: a critical discourse analysis 2014 ABSTRACT While evidence confirms that print media in South Africa has contributed to the development of a xenophobic environment (McDonald and Jacobs, 2005:306; Danso and McDonald, 2001:124), particularly in the manner in which the media has stigmatised non-nationals, this does not necessarily imply that the print media was complicit in the xenophobic outbreaks of April/May 2008 (Smith, 2011:111).
