INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN

IDP REVIEW

4

Legislative context

Section 34 of the Municipal Systems Act states that:  A municipal council-

a)      Must review its integrated development plan–

 i.      Annually in accordance with an assessment of its

performance measurements in terms of section 4 i;

and

         ii.   To the extent that changing circumstances so

demand; and b)    May amend its IDP in accordance with a prescribed process.

5

Why Review?While the legislation requires a review, it makes sense for us to review for the following reasons: To ensure that the IDP is relevant

(implementation performance, check targets, objectives, changing circumstances etc.)

IDP is the municipality’s strategic plan and as such should inform aspects such as the institutional and financial.

To inform other spheres of government.
