Slide2Background – Initiation of the MGRO
2
The Municipal Governance Review and Outlook (MGRO) was initiated by PT to drive a single-minded focus on clean governance.
The Western Cape Integrated Work Plan (IWP) which was endorsed in 2016/17, aims to achieve greater alignment of provincial and local government policy, planning, budgeting, implementation and governance.
Since late 2017, in a bid to implement integrated management, the department of Local Government and Environmental Affairs formed part of the process.
The Technical Integrated Municipal Engagement (TIME) coordinated by PT (Normative Compliance Management) as part of the Western Cape IWP is focused on embedding good governance practices towards the achievement of objectives.
The engagements brings together provincial departments, municipalities and other relevant stakeholders.
A key output is the implementation of an collective action plan per municipality to address key challenges and emerging risks.

Slide5Internal Audit Report
5
An internal audit was performed on the MGRO process as part of the 2016/17 and 2017/18 audit plan, for which two reports were issued in February and July 2017.
The outstanding matters are monitored by Provincial Treasury’s internal control unit, and feedback is provided to the audit committee on a quarterly basis.
As the process of MGRO evolved into TIME, more departments were brought on board to give effect to the Western Cape Integrated Work Plan (IWP), therefore more stakeholders had to be included in process.

Slide6Outstanding Matters
6
The outstanding actions are governance matters relating to how the process is documented within the departments to ensure institutionalisation of the process.
The outstanding actions does not impact the deliverables to the municipalities and consequently, the outcome of the process.
These include documenting SOPs and finalisation of draft documents.
We have provided new implementation dates aligned to the evolved processes, which will be finalised by 31 December 2019.
Internal control follows up on the outstanding action points and provides feedback to the audit committee on a quarterly basis.
