Challenges Encountered and Lessons learnt Siyenza Manje 3-year Review Report The majority of the problems at municipalities are structural, organisational and political High municipal vacancy rate in key technical and senior management posts Multiple requests for Siyenza Manje support resulted in more focus on addressing short-term crisis than capacity development in municipalities Lack of sufficient strategic direction and oversight by Government.
