ATTENTION: EASTERN CAPE MEDIA DATE: 02 FEBRUARY 2020 ITS ALL SYSTEMS GO FOR THE PUBLIC CONSULTATIONS ON DRAFT ELECTORAL WARDS The Municipal Demarcation Board will tomorrow, 03 February 2020, commence with the public consultation sessions on the draft electoral wards. Wards are delimited in all metropolitan and local municipalities to lay a foundation for the delivery of free and fair local government elections (LGE) in 2021. ROADMAP OF THE WARD DELIMITATION PROCESS Following the public meetings, the MDB will consider all public proposals received and delimit wards. The wards will be published in provincial gazettes for objections by May 2020. Any aggrieved person will have 14 days to object. The MDB will consider all objections, and publish its final decisions in provincial gazettes by July 2020. The MDB will then handover the final ward boundaries to the IEC in August 2020 to start preparing for the 2021 local elections. All citizens are encouraged to seize this opportunity to express their views on how their wards should be configured. All sessions in the Eastern Cape will commence at 09:00.
