The IDP Review process in the DMA was done according to the prescription of Section 34 of the MSA(Act no. 32 of 2000). PIMSS co-ordinated the IDP Review Process for the District according to the requirements of the Act. The implementation of the amended Integrated Development Plans was monitored on a monthly basis. The development and completion of Integrated Development Sector Plans and Programmes, however, remained a major gap in the IDP process due to capacity problems. The development of sector plans will be phased in over a period.

During the year under review the following plans were completed, Water Services Development Plan, Integrated Transport Plan, Integrated Waste Management Plan, Integrated Environmental Plans and Economic Development Plan.

Future plans in the new year include the development of an Integrated HIV/AIDS Strategy, Integrated Institutional Plan and a Communication Strategy to further enhance service delivery to the communities.
