He said government is working to attract investment in water infrastructure among others.
“In terms of the water plan, the National Water Crisis Committee will focus on three priorities. The first is to address immediate challenges in municipality water and sanitation delivery through a focus on limited number of municipalities. Secondly, to expedite institutional financial as well as regulator systemic causes of the water crisis. Thirdly, we will attract investment in water infrastructure increasing both public and private sector investment and involvement the main causes of the water crisis are at local government level.”
