B: Key Challenges RBIG Irregular appointment of ISD Consultants. Funding shortfall of projects Final approval of the Greater Bulwer Scheme Sluggish in flow of co-funding portion of funding Additional cost of project value due to terminated contracts. Non-Performing DM’s – UGU DM. they are under resourced resulting in poor management.

B: Key Challenges RBIG – DMs delaying to pay contractors, and contractors constantly have to leave site e.g. uMzinyathi DM contractors MWIG – Delays have been experienced in getting environmental approvals (e.g. KwaSithole Project) – Delays have been experienced in appointing specialised contractors (e.g. Nondweni WTW) – Project has been hampered with rain (e.g. Nondweni WTW)

B: Key Challenges on NTP NTP Protracted SCM procedures within WSAs. Unreasonable amount of time to get contractor appointed Having to initiate, implement and close out a project all within the space of a year Weak WSAs i.e. inherent problems in their finance and PMU departments Non compliance of WSAs – inability to submit invoices and supporting documentation timeously Non payment of contractors by WSAs due to poor project management within the WSAs Lack of skilled human resources within the WSAs

C: Project to be “Fast Track” ZULULAND DM: – Mandlakazi WTW to enable reliable supply to Hlabisa

D: Projects to be Launched Middledrift WTW – 26 November 2013 Hlabisa BWS – 30 November 2013

E: Way forward National office to advice in time if additional funding will be made available for the ZDM projects that will be half complete should additional funding not be made available i.e. Mandlakazi WTW, as well as the completion of uSuthu BWS 25
