SYSTEMIC FAILURE OF
PUBLIC
INFRASTRUCTURE
South Africa has experienced an increasing number of disruptions of essential
services such as water and electricity over the last decade. Despite increased
attention, these disruptions continue to occur and, in some cases, accelerate.
Participation in economic activities and social inclusion are greatly affected by the
failure of delivery of public infrastructure services. This is a significant hindrance
to government achieving the stated objectives for the NDP. The impact of this on
investor certainty is substantial, as is the ability of business and other essential
services to operate.
