WATER WORRIES

Font size: - +

Following an extremely dry start to the rainy season in the north-eastern parts of the country and with ongoing drought conditions in other regions, concerns over water security are increasing. Human Settlements, Water and Sanitation Minister Lindiwe Sisulu has urged South Africans to urgently cut back on their water consumption. Citizens will be far more prepared to play their part, however, if they can be convinced that government is ready to do its bit to address the challenge. For the time being, no such roadmap exists, but Sisulu has promised to publish a master plan this month.
