Water and Sanitation Minister Pemmy Majodina said that pit toilets remained a concern where municipalities were also complicit, but called for a different approach.
CAPE TOWN - Water and Sanitation Minister Pemmy Majodina said that municipalities were not making it easy to eradicate pit toilets and kept building more.
But Majodina, who tabled her department’s budget on Friday, said that this needed to end in the seventh administration. She said that a huge chunk of the budget would go towards infrastructure maintenance and development. "At a point, it must be regulated that let’s come up with other innovative ways of sanitation without rolling back the bucket system."
