Human Settlements, Water and Sanitation Minister Lindiwe Sisulu has assured communities and businesses that the government is committed to restoring the dilapidated water and sanitation infrastructure, which has, over the years, contributed to the pollution of the Vaal river. Sisulu was briefing interested parties and nongovernmental organisations (NGOs) on government’s plan to invoke Section 63 of the Water Services Act, which would see the Department of Water and Sanitation taking over water and sanitation services within the jurisdiction of the Emfuleni local municipality.
