Partnership to improve solid waste management services
On Friday, 10 October 2014, the Department for Corporative Governance (DCoG) in partnership with the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), will sign a Memorandum of Understanding to support the Mahikeng Local Municipality in improving solid waste management services.

Section 24 of The Constitution guarantees everyone the right to an environment that is not harmful to their health or well-being. As municipalities go back to basics, they have a responsibility to provide all sections of society with clean and safe environment.
The signing of the MOU will take place as follows:

Venue: DCoG offices, 87 Hamilton Street, Arcadia
Time: 09h00 to 12h00
