1. INTRODUCTION

Integrated Development Plan (IDP) is designed:

To strengthen the link between Local, District, Provincial and National priorities,

objectives, resource allocation and implementation of programmes

To provide means whereby municipalities can maintain and communicate IDP

information, thereby supporting ease of access and use by stakeholders across all

spheres of government,

To support coordination between sectors, clusters and priority areas

To support the timely submission of key planning information to all spheres of

government.

The process plan outlines role players, responsibilities and timelines for developing the Integrated

Development Plan for 2020/2021.

1.1. LEGISLATIVE FRAMEWORK

The Local Government: Municipal Systems Act No 32 of 2000:

35 “(1) An integrated development plan adopted by the council of a municipality (a) is the principal

strategic planning instrument which guides and informs all planning and development, and all

decisions with regard to planning, management and development in the municipality”;

(b) “binds the municipality in the exercise of its executive authority…”

25 “(1) Each municipal council must, within a prescribed period after the start of its elected term, adopt a

single, inclusive and strategic plan for the development of the municipality which

(a) links, integrates and co-ordinates plans and takes into account proposals for the

development of the municipality:

(b) aligns the resources and capacity of the municipality with the implementation of the plan:

(c) forms the policy framework and general basis on which annual budgets must be based;

(d) complies with the provisions of this Chapter; and

(e) is compatible with national and provincial development plans and planning requirements

binding on the municipality in terms of legislation.”

In accordance with this legislation, the Mnquma Local Municipality’s IDP, as the principal planning

document, sets out the long-term vision of the Municipality as; “A developmental municipality that is

self-sustainable to empower its citizens socially, economically and legislatively to ensure sustainable

livelihood”.

Mnquma Local Municipality IDP also details the:

development of priorities and objectives, which contribute towards achieving this

vision, over the Councils elected term;

strategies, which are the means by which these objectives will be achieved;

IDP programmes and projects which link to the strategies and contribute to the

achievement of the objectives.

Reflect the progress of the IDP plans

Adjustment to Annual targets to inform budget

Mnquma Local Municipality will review and further develop its IDP and Budget in accordance with the

requirements set out in the Local Government: Municipal Systems Act No. 32 of 2000, the Local

Government: Municipal Planning and Performance Management Regulations 2001 and the Municipal

Finance Management Act No. 56 of 2003.

In terms of the Municipal Systems Act No 32 of 2000 a municipality is required to review its IDP

annually. Annual revisions allow the municipality to reflect and report on the programmes, refine plans

and strategies in order to include additional issues and to ensure that these plans and strategies

inform institutional and financial planning.

Local Government: Municipal Systems Act No.32 of 2000 Section 34

“A municipal council –

(a) must review its integrated development plan

(i) annually in accordance with an assessment of its performance measurements … and

(ii) to the extent that changing circumstances so demand and

(b) may amend its integrated development plan in accordance with a prescribed process”

1.2. THE IDP PROCESS PLAN

It is required by legislation that a municipal council adopt a process to guide the planning, drafting and

adoption of its IDP.

Local Government: Municipal Systems Act No.32 of 2000 Section 28

“Adoption of process-(1) each municipal council…must adopt a process set out in writing to guide the planning

drafting adoption and review of its integrated development plan.”

outline mechanisms, processes and procedures for consultation of the community, organs of

state, traditional authorities and role-players;

identify all plans and planning requirements binding on the municipality, and

be consistent with any other matters prescribed by legislation.

Local Government: Municipal Systems Act No.32 of 2000 Section 29

1.3. IDP INFORMANTS

7. MECHANISMS AND PROCEDURES FOR PUBLIC PARTICIPATION

The Local Government Municipal Systems Act No.32 of 2000 Section 16:

“Development of culture of community participation-(1)A municipality must develop a culture of municipal governance that

complements formal representative government with a system of participatory governance, and must for this purpose-

(a) encourage, and create conditions for, the local community to participate in the affairs of the municipality, including

in—

(i) the preparation. implementation and development of its integrated development plan in terms of Chapter 5

(ii) the establishment, implementation and review of its performance management system in terms of Chapter 6

(iii) the monitoring and review of its performance, including the outcomes and impact of such performance

(iv) the preparation of its budget; and

(v) strategic decisions relating to the provision of municipal services in terms of Chapter 8

(b) contribute to building the capacity of—

(i) the local community [to enable it to participate in the affairs of the municipality; and

(ii) councillors and staff to foster community participation; and

(c)use its resources, and annually allocate funds in its budget, as may be appropriate for the purpose of implementing

paragraphs (a) and (b).”

For purposes of compliance with this legislative requirement, Mnquma Local Municipality has

established formal structures for effective participation in the IDP processes. Below is a description of

the participatory function of each of the various structures established for the IDP process.

Page 16: 2020/2021 IDP, PMS AND BUDGET PROCESS PLAN · In terms of the Municipal Systems Act No 32 of 2000 a municipality is required to review its IDP annually. Annual revisions allow the

MNQUMA LOCAL MUNICIPALITY – 2020/2021 IDP/PMS AND BUDGET PROCESS PLAN

16 | P a g e

IDP/PMS and Budget Representative Forum – constituted of formal representatives of

various civic and community organisations as well as other formal structures affected by

the development efforts of the municipality such as:

o Traditional Leaders forums

o Established forums (business chambers and organisations)

o NGOs

o CBO

o CDWs and Ward Committees

The role of the IDP Forum is to verify and make additions to data collected through non-

formal participatory methods.

In addition to the formal process of representation through the IDP Representative Forum

engagement and other Council processes, Mnquma Local Municipality consults its

communities on an ongoing basis to solicit inputs in as far as the development challenges

they face are concerned. To do this in an effective, efficient and structured manner,

Mnquma Local Municipality has institutionalised a process of community engagement

through the Mayoral Imbizos. These are community meetings held at the ward level

where direct participation by communities is encouraged. To complement this process,

ward level planning where planning methods are used to gather data are utilised.

7.1. Communication

The Local Government Municipal Systems Act No 32 of 2000 Section 21

“Communication to local community-(1) When anything must be notified by a municipality through the media to the

local community in terms of this Act or any other applicable legislation, it must be done-

(a) in the local newspaper or newspapers of its area,

(b) in a newspaper or newspapers circulating in its area and determined by the council as newspaper of

record

(c) by means of radio broadcasts covering the area of the municipality

The municipality will publicise all IDP meetings and engagements, publicise all documents and solicit

inputs from communities, publicise approval of documents, and publicise all IDP/PMS/Budget related
