The Democratic Alliance will request that
the Municipal Demarcation Board be summoned to Parliament to explain its
reasoning behind the merger of the Midvaal and Emfuleni municipalities in Gauteng .
DA Shadow Minister of Cooperative
Governance and Traditional Affairs John Steenhuisen said the decision to merge
these two municipalities appears to be politically motivated and not based on
any service delivery needs.
Steenhuisen added that The DA-led Midvaal
municipality is the best run municipality in Gauteng .
He further added that Since the DA took
control of the municipality in 2001, the people of Midvaal have benefited from
the DA’s commitment to clean and efficient government.
