Stakeholder engagement, underpinned by effective administrative support, is key
to the successful implementation of the Strategy. Communication, sharing of
information and engagement between members of the DWS, SSC and PSP structures
are vital.
The logistics and arrangements of the Strategy Steering Committee and other
related meetings will be undertaken. Invitations will be distributed to members
together with a response sheet, an agenda, as well as the relevant documents to
be discussed at the meetings. Minutes of meetings will be distributed to members
within two weeks of each meeting.
Directly involved stakeholders will be informed of the study and its progress
through the SSC meetings. Several other sectors of stakeholders (agriculture,
industry, local government, domestic users) will be kept informed and engaged in
the study. The following activities are planned to keep stakeholders informed:
- Annual newsletter: A newsletter was previously compiled and distributed to all stakeholders to keep them abreast of the progress made with the maintenance and implementation of the Strategy.
- Media releases will be distributed to the media in the Western Cape Water Supply System to inform readers and listeners of the maintenance and implementation of the strategy.
- Access to information: The DWS project web site will publish all project documents to stakeholders to review and comment on.
