SA's municipal horror show laid bare in AG report | Business

SA's municipalities are struggling to keep vital infrastructure operating.

The rot that is eating away at the SA's 257 municipalities has not yet been stemmed, Auditor-General Tsakani Maluleke has said, as she again warned of the real-world impacts of crumbling infrastructure, financial mismanagement and dysfunctional leadership. Maluleke's report on the financial and audit outcomes of SA’s 257 municipalities in 2022 showed that only 38 municipalities received clean audits, down from 41 last year. Of the 38 municipalities with clean audits, 21 were in the Western Cape.
