The provincial SA Local Government Association (Salga) has added its voice to the growing call for a review of the imposition of Section 139 (1) (b) on three municipalities in the province.

This follows a provincial executive council (Exco) decision to put the Matlosana, Maquassi Hills and Ditsobotla local municipalities under administration, citing a collapsed administration and failure to render services.

Acting local government MEC Paul Sebegoe visited the affected municipalities last week to communicate the new development.
