27. RISKS/CHALLENGES & MITIGATION
Transfer of unaudited figures on revenue: The transfer, by the DWS to the IUCMA, of the billing and collection function took place in November 2017.
However, through stakeholder engagement forums and direct commination with the clients the risk exposure is addressed.
Drought conditions from the past years affected water allocation to water to full assurance levels. However, the sector forums were continued to ensure integrated approach that saw restrictions on water use being removed in May 2017.
Inadequate delegations/ assignment of functions from the Minister: Engagements were made with the Minister and the DWS to ensure that the delegations are properly done and implemented to ensure compliance with the National Water Act.
The issue of pollution of the resource by poor quality effluents from waste water treatment works cannot be overlooked. The risk of court legal action against the IUCMA
The IUCMA is embarking on correcting some of the minor deficiencies in the system with the intention of reclaiming the monies spent from the defaulting municipalities.
