29 July 2024 - NW36
Tito, Ms LF to ask the Minister of Water and Sanitation
Whether she is aware of the struggles of access to water services by the residents of Gataote Village, North West; if not, why not; if so, what plans has her department put in place to ensure the provision of sustainable water services to the residents of Gataote?
Reply:
The Department of Water and Sanitation (DWS) was made aware of a water supply interruption in the Gataote Village through a notice which was issued by Magalies Water dated 3 July 2024.
The water supply interruption was reportedly due to the refurbishment of the steel storage tank which was leaking excessively. Magalies Water has informed DWS that the refurbishment of the steel tank was completed on 15 July 2024 and that water supply to the Gataote village has been restored.
