- PUBLIC PARTICIPATION DURING THE LOCKDOWN PERIOD
  April 30, 2020We commend the Government for their relentless efforts to mitigate against potentially devastating effects of Covid-19. We are proud for the leadership who understand and care for the well-being and health of all South African citizens during this difficult time. Since the lockdown will be gradually lifted, we appeal to everyone to adhere to the regulations in place to flatten the curve. It is therefore the responsibility of each and every one of us to stay at home, stay safe and pull together to fight the pandemic. Undoubtedly the advent of the novel covid-19 has instigated an unprecedented socio-economic downturn which will completely impact the way business is conducted and profoundly on how people engage with each other, professionally and personally. It is business unusual, the way we interact with our stakeholders will change immensely. Whilst we are exploring other means to ensure that stakeholders are able to access information, we encourage all stakeholders to utilise online platforms such as the MDB website and social media platforms to access information. According Circular 3 of 2020 issued just before the commencement of the lockdown, the date for submission of written submissions for ward delimitation is extended to 15 May 2020 until further notice.

- ROADMAP OF THE WARD DELIMITATION PROCESS
  March 3, 2020Communities and municipalities are encouraged to consult among themselves and reach a consensus. Their proposal should be aligned to the criteria for ward delimitation and can be submitted by not later than 30 April 2020 to registry@demarcation.org.za. The ward submission form can be obtained on the MDB website www.demarcation.org.za After the public consultation sessions, the MDB will consider all public proposals received and delimit wards. The wards will be published in provincial gazettes for objections by May 2020. Any aggrieved person will have 14 days to object. The MDB will consider all objections, and publish its final decisions in provincial gazettes by July 2020. The MDB will then handover the final ward boundaries to the IEC in August 2020 to start preparing for the 2021 local elections. We encourage citizens to seize this opportunity to express their views on how their wards should be configured. Lookout for Schedules for the remaining Provinces: Gauteng, North West, Limpopo, Northern Cape and Free State on www.demarcation.org.za... Read more...
