Provision of water and sanitation services

PROVISION OF WATER AND SANITATION SERVICES

Municipalities are directed to:

  1. Ensure that communities are provided with the necessary means to prevent transmission, whilst preventing disruptions in services that are rendered through both municipal programmes and customer interaction.
  2. Provide potable water and sanitation services to high population density settlements, rural communities, informal settlements.
  3. Provide other appropriate means, like water tankers, boreholes and storage tanks in water constrained communities that have limited access to municipal water supply.
  4. Ensure that, in collaboration with the relevant stakeholders, water and sanitation is available at public facilities and public transport points.
