Question NW2619 to the Minister of Human Settlements
11 January 2022 - NW2619
Mokgotho, Ms SM to ask the Minister of Human Settlements
By what date is it anticipated that the bucket system will be totally eradicated and replaced by a proper sanitation system as communities in the Setsoto Local Municipality, Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality and the Kouga Local Municipality are still using the bucket system?
Reply:
The eradication of bucket system and replacement of sanitation does not fall within the mandate of the Department of Human Settlements. The question may be well answered by the Department of Water and Sanitation as it is within its mandate.
