A war room* has been established to monitor and to exert impetus towards the implementation of a six-point plan aimed at vigorously dealing with the water supply situation across the district.

This comes after the recent interventions by the National Minister of Water and Sanitation, Senzo Mchunu and KZN Premier Sihle Zikalala.

“Stringent measures are being put in place to address the existing water supply disruptions in the district,” said Ugu District spokesman France Zama.

He said these measures are tailored to provide short and long term relief to affected areas across the district.

“Members of the public should take comfort in the improvements that have been realised in some areas through the implementation of these measures,” he said.

Zama appealed for calm and patience while the municipality focuses its energies on carrying out water recovery measures.

* What is a war room? Unlike a traditional office environment, war rooms are spaces where key people get together to solve a difficult problem.

Also known as situation rooms, control rooms, or command centres, war rooms should always have the goal of solving a difficult or specific problem via clear communication and improved work flow.
