ISSUES FOR NOTING cont… STATUS Governance issues Working relations between Council and Management. This emanated after two council members incurred irregular expenditure which happened during the time of travelling to the meetings. This was recorded in the 2015/16 Annual Report and it created tensions between Council and management. There was lack of cohesiveness amongst Council members themselves Request for intervention was received from the Director. The Department intervened on the matter and attended a meeting between Management and Council where the matter was discusses. In that meeting it transpired that Council dealt with the matter and the expenditure was condoned. The Department intervened and held a meeting with Council to deal with challenges faced by the Council. It appears that the tensions that existed have eased.
