Legislative context • Section 34 of the Municipal Systems Act states that: •  A municipal council- a)Must review its integrated development plan– i.Annually in accordance with an assessment of its performance measurements in terms of section 4 i; and ii.To the extent that changing circumstances so demand; and b)May amend its IDP in accordance with a prescribed process.

  5. Why Review? • While the legislation requires a review, it makes sense for us to review for the following reasons: • To ensure that the IDP is relevant (implementation performance, check targets, objectives, changing circumstances etc.) • IDP is the municipality’s strategic plan and as such should inform aspects such as the institutional and financial. • To inform other spheres of government.
