7. CoGTA Constitutional Mandate CoGTA’s mandate is primarily derived from Chapters 3, 5, 6, 7, and 9 of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, 1996, hereafter referred to as the Constitution. Chapter 3 - This chapter deals with cooperative government and intergovernmental relations. The Department will have to ensure that we observe and adhere to the principles in this chapter, and that we conduct our activities within the parameters of this chapter. Chapter 5 - This chapter deals with national intervention in provincial administration when a province cannot or does not fulfil an executive obligation in terms of the Constitution or legislation.

8. 8 Chapter 6 - This chapter deals with provincial intervention in local government, in particular when municipalities are unable to fulfil their executive obligation. Chapter 6 is also relevant when a municipality, as a result of financial crisis, breaches its obligations to provide basic services in order to meet its financial obligations. Chapter 7- The chapter deals inter alia with municipalities in cooperative governance. The Department, by legislation, must support and strengthen the capacity of municipalities to manage their own affairs, exercise their powers and perform their functions. Chapter 9 - This chapter deals with those institutions whose role requires strengthening the constitutional democracy of the country. The DCoG has to comply with all legislative frameworks in this chapter in order to meet legislative frameworks under the auspices of institutions such as the Auditor-General and Public Protector.
