According to Gauteng Provincial Legislature Media and Issues Specialist Dorianne Arendse, the two leaders will outline plans to ensure Mogale City residents have continued access to water amid load-shedding.
“For the last few weeks residents of Mogale City have had a very limited supply of water due to the load-shedding being implemented by Eskom. Reservoirs have been unable to fill up because of this which has led to many residents being left without a reliable supply of water.
“During our oversight inspection, we will be outlining what measures we are putting in place to ensure that our residents have access to a reliable supply of water and what we can do to conserve water. Furthermore, we urge our residents to use water sparingly as this is a scarce resource.”
