The purpose of this booklet is to provide an overview of MIG as a programme and to outlinecritical steps in the cycle of a capital project towards ensuring sustainability. It also aims tohighlight the role of municipalities in implementing the MIG programme.This booklet is not intended to replace the MIG Policy Framework or other official guidelinesabout the MIG. It is intended to provide a user-friendly overview of the MIG and to highlight someimportant issues from a municipal perspective. For the detailed MIG policy refer to: PolicyFramework for the Introduction of the Municipal Infrastructure Grant (MIG), Concise version –final, amended by the Municipal Infrastructure Task Team, 5 February 2004.Who should read this booklet?This booklet provides information that will be useful to: Those responsible for MIG programme / capital projects within municipalities Councillors All those providing support to municipalities in terms of the MIG and project implementation(Department of Provincial and Local Government, Sector Departments and the South AfricanLocal Government Association) Project planners (those undertaking project feasibility studies and those responsible fordeveloping project business plans) Contractors, service providers, enterprises and all those contracted as part of implementingcapital projects Community development workers, social and technical staff / practitioners Anyone who wants to know more about planning and implementing sustainable MIGprojects.For more detailed information on a specific topic you should contact the National or the nearestProvincial MIG Programme Management Unit Office.

ForewordPoverty eradication is still one of the biggest challenges facing our country.Within this context our government has committed itself to the WorldSummit on Sustainable Development Millennium Targets to eradicate povertyas well as accelerating service delivery. The most important step we havetaken towards addressing these targets is the establishment of the MunicipalInfrastructure Grant (MIG) Programme.The programme is aimed at providing all South Africans with at least a basiclevel of service by the year 2013 through the provision of grant finance tocover the capital cost of basic infrastructure for the poor. It is part ofgovernment’s overall strategy to eradicate poverty and to create conditions forlocal economic development. The programme will therefore maximiseopportunities for employment creation and enterprise development. The MIG programme fits within theoverall development framework of government, which is built on three cornerstones: basic services,food security, HIV/AIDS. Whilst the MIG programme directly addresses basic services, it also contributesto the other elements since access to basic services improves opportunities for communities to livehealthier lives and to be more productive.Being one of the biggest capital grants worldwide, the MIG is guided by clear policy principles,objectives and conditions for use. It has a clear framework, which outlines roles and responsibilities,cross-sector linkages, programme management, and mechanisms towards ensuring transparency,accountability and sustainability. This booklet has been developed to communicate information aboutthe MIG programme in a user-friendly way. It also aims to encourage municipalities and other keystakeholders to utilise the programme to proactively address the basic service and other developmentneeds of our communities.The MIG programme provides the framework, the resources and the means to realise one of our mostpressing goals – the eradication of poverty. However, the successful implementation of the programmerequires people, skills, partnerships, co-operative relationships, and real commitment from allstakeholders. Let us work together to make this happen.FHOLISANI SYDNEY MUFAMADIMinister for Provincial and Local GovernmentTHE MUNICIPAL INFRASTRUCTURE GRANT (MIG)32004 - 2007

Part 1Introducing MIGWHATISMIG?The Municipal Infrastructure Grant (MIG) is a new municipal infrastructure funding arrangement. It combinesall the existing capital grants for municipal infrastructure into a single consolidated grant.ted Municipal InfrasConsolidatructureProgr am mes ProjectsWater Serviceks Programmeed Public WorCommunity BasentevelopmLocal Economic DFundFundUrban Transportcrend ReatropSBuilding fornicatioNational ElectrifProna t ioogPremmrameamrgTHE MUNICIPAL INFRASTRUCTURE GRANT (MIG)62004 - 2007}ConsolidationMIG

Why MIG?Infrastructure grants were managed by different departments in the past. They were uncoordinated andfragmented. Municipalities were often not in control of infrastructure projects within their area of jurisdiction.This defeated the purpose of cost effective planning and integrated service delivery.MIG is designed to overcome these challenges.What categories of infrastructure can MIG support?Since MIG is aimed at assisting the poor to gain access to infrastructure, MIG funds can only be used forinfrastructure for basic levels of service. For example, a basic water supply facility has been defined as theinfrastructure necessary to supply 25 litres of potable water per person per day supplied within 200 metres ofa household and with a minimum flow of 10 litres per minute (in the case of communal water points) or 6 000litres of potable water supplied per formal connection per month (in the case of yard or house connections).MIG funds may be used to upgrade and build new infrastructure up to a basic level of service as well as torehabilitate existing infrastructure, so long as the infrastructure is for basic services for the poor.There are different categories of infrastructure that MIG funds can be used for.Category 1: HouseholdsMIG can be used for infrastructure for basic household (residential) services. This includes: Electricity Water supply Sanitation Storm water management Municipal roads Refuse removal Street lightingOnly poor households would qualify for MIG support.Where the infrastructure is used by both poor and non-poor households, the municipality must find othercapital funds (not MIG funds) to cover the cost of providing the service to the non-poor households.National and provincial infrastructure, are excluded from MIG.THE MUNICIPAL INFRASTRUCTURE GRANT (MIG)72004 - 2007

Usually municipal infrastructure is not installed on private land unless a servitude is established. However inorder to address the needs of farm dwellers, MIG funding can be used to provide basic services to poorhouseholds living on private land, without servitudes, subject to certain conditions. One of these conditions isthat the landowner must make an appropriate contribution to the capital cost.Category 2: Public municipal facilitiesMIG funds may be used for the following public municipal facilities: Public transport such as municipal public transport, municipal airports and pontoons, ferries and harbours Emergency services such as fire stations Community services such as: childcare facilities, beaches and amusement facilities; cemeteries; funeralparlours and crematoria; cleansing; facilities for animals; fencing; local amenities; local sports facilities;municipal health services; and public places.Category 3: Institutions other than public municipal facilitiesMIG funds may be used for infrastructure to provide services to institutions such as schools, clinics, policestations, prisons, churches and recreational facilities. However, only institutions which are used extensively bythe poor may be included.These services include electricity, water supply, sanitation, storm water management, municipal roads, refuseremoval and street lighting.THE MUNICIPAL INFRASTRUCTURE GRANT (MIG)82004 - 2007

What does MIG aim to achieve?The vision for the MIG programme is to provide all South Africans with at least a basiclevel of service by the year 2013 through the provision of grant finance aimed at coveringthe capital cost of basic infrastructure for the poor.The MIG programme has been designed to achieve the following:Service coverage targetsAccess to ralisedservice deliveryPovertyalleviationMIGMissionLocal economicdevelopmentEmploymentcreationEmpowermentof municipalitiesWhat is the MIG approach?The MIG approach is to simplify the system of transfers to municipalities.The system is designed to: support the capital budgets of municipalities facilitate integrated development planning allow flexibility in budget programmingMIG is based on a demand driven approach where: All infrastructure grants are integrated into one Infrastructure planning is done by municipalities themselves Municipalities play a central role in co-ordinating development activity and the delivery of municipalinfrastructure in their jurisdictions Funding allocations are linked to Integrated Development Plans (IDPs) Communities participate in identifying projects Capital grant allocations are predictable Service delivery is decentralised to municipalities Programme co-ordination takes place through one national structure, called the MIG Unit.THE MUNICIPAL INFRASTRUCTURE GRANT (MIG)92004 - 2007

MIG and municipal servicesThe MIG programme is an integral part of providing municipal services. The provision of municipal services isin most cases dependent on infrastructure. Part of planning municipal services is therefore planning forinfrastructure.

MIG and other national allocationsThere are three major categories of national allocations to local government plus the Sector Education andTraining Authority (SETA) mechanism to access resources :MunicipalInfrastructureGrant (MIG)Infrastructure(capital projects)MIG is aninfrastructure grantto expand thedelivery of basicservices to poorhouseholds and toalleviate ableShare (ES)Institutions(capacity buildingprojects)The MSIG is a grant toassist municipalities inbuilding in-housecapacity to performtheir functions andstabilise institutionaland governancesystems as required inthe Municipal SystemsAct of 2000.Serviceprovision(operational grant)The equitable sharegrant is anunconditional grant tosupplementmunicipalities’revenue to deliverservices to poorhouseholds. Itsubsidises the actualprovision of theservice (for examplethe salaries,operational costs,maintenance costs,administrative andmanagements costs)where free basicservices are provided.All three grants are aimed at supporting the deliveryof basic services and to alleviate poverty:MunicipalInfrastructureGrant (MIG) Without infrastructure there can be no serviceprovision Without institutional capacity and systems,municipalities will not be able to plan andimplement infrastructure projects, and they willnot be able to provide servicesIntegrateddevelopment Without the equitable share grant, municipalitiesmay not be able to provide free basic services topoor households.Equitable Share(ES)The grants are therefore complementary and thesuccessful use of one grant impacts on the successfuluse of another grant.THE MUNICIPAL INFRASTRUCTURE GRANT (MIG)112004 - 2007Municipal SystemsImprovement Grant(MSIG)

The principles of MIGThe key principles that govern the implementation of the MIG programme are as follows:Infrastructurefor a basic levelof esreinforcedServices forthe poorEquity in theallocation anduse of fundsMIGpolicyprinciplesDecentralisationof spendingauthorityEfficient use offundsMunicipalitiesidentify, selectand approveprojectsThe objectives of MIGIn the context of the above principles, the key objectives of the MIG are to: Fully subsidise the capital costs of providing basic services to poor households. This means that priority mustbe given to meeting the basic infrastructure needs of poor households, through the provision of appropriatebulk, connector and internal infrastructure in municipal services Distribute funding for municipal infrastructure in an equitable, transparent and efficient manner whichsupports a co-ordinated approach to local development and maximises developmental outcomes Assist in enhancing the developmental capacity of municipalities, through supporting multi-year planningand budgeting systems Provide a mechanism for the co-ordinated pursuit of national policy priorities with regard to basic municipalinfrastructure programmes, while avoiding the duplication and inefficiency associated with sectorallyfragmented grants.THE MUNICIPAL INFRASTRUCTURE GRANT (MIG)122004 - 2007

MIG FUNDING ARRANGEMENTSMIG fund splitThe MIG policy provides for the following key elements within the MIG fund:Special Municipal Infrastructure Fund (SMIF), whichis allocated to municipalities on application.The MIGfunding potMunicipal allocation for infrastructure based on aformula mechanism?What is the Special Municipal Infrastructure Fund?The Special Municipal Infrastructure Fund is a fundearmarked for special innovative and regional investmentprojects including: Projects that address new solutions to infrastructure problems Large scale municipal infrastructure which crosses municipalboundaries.THE MUNICIPAL INFRASTRUCTURE GRANT (MIG)132004 - 2007

How is the municipal allocation dividedbetween municipalities? The municipal allocation is first split into each type of infrastructure. So, a ‘pot’ is created for water supplyand sanitation, and another pot is created for roads, and so on. Each pot is then divided between municipalities based on their backlogs. For example the pot for water andsanitation will be divided between those municipalities that have water supply and sanitation backlogs.Municipalities with bigger water and sanitation backlogs will get more MIG funding out of the water andsanitation pot than those with smaller backlogs.Municipalities are given a MIG allocationfor each type of infrastructure.Other municipal servicesMunicipality ARoadsThe allocations for each type ofinfrastructure are then added up tocalculate the municipality’s total MIGallocation for the year for all infrastructure.Water supplyand sanitation[Electricity in future]Total MIGallocation forMunicipality ASocial institutions & microenterprisesNodal municipalitiesPublic municipal serviceinfrastructureTHE MUNICIPAL INFRASTRUCTURE GRANT (MIG)142004 - 2007

The funds are determined by formulaand are paid into the bank account of the municipality according to a MIG schedule, that is agreed towith the municipality. The amount that the municipality will receive from MIG is published in the Division ofRevenue Act. However, the municipality must have complied with the conditions of MIG, which are describedon the next page.THE MUNICIPAL INFRASTRUCTURE GRANT (MIG)152004 - 2007

WHATARE THECONDITIONSOFMIG?MIG is a conditional grant. Municipalities must therefore conform to the conditions laid down by the MunicipalInfrastructure Task Team (MITT) and administered by dplg through the MIG Unit. There are three types ofconditions that apply to MIG: Division of Revenue Act conditions; cross-cutting conditions; and sectorconditions. The purpose of the conditions is to ensure that municipalities address the objectives outlined in theMIG policy.123SectorConditionsDivision ofRevenue ActMunicipalInfrastructure Grant(MIG)Cross cuttingconditionsoutlined inMIG PolicyFrameworkConditions-The Division of RevenueAct specifies conditionsthat apply to thetransfer, administration,and management ofMIG fundsCross-cutting conditions areset out in the MIG policyframework. These conditionsrelate to the overallperformance of themunicipality and apply to ALLsector projects within theMIG programme. The MITTmay amend these conditionsfrom time to time.Each sector department(DWAF, DME, DoT, SRSA andDPW) may establish furtherconditions that are specificto their sectors. Suchconditions will be includedat the discretion of the MITT.The Division of Revenue Act deals with conditions such as: prioritising residential infrastructure in line with MIG and sector policies the requirement for three year capital and operational budgets from municipalities reporting requirements, and the need to adhere to labour-intensive construction methods.The economic spin-offs of infrastructure delivery must be maximised in linewith the government’s 'Expanded Public Works Programme'.The cross-cutting conditions within the MIG policy framework include issues such as: the use of MIG funds within the framework of the IDP and its approved budget the type of infrastructure and levels of service for which the funds can be used the need to achieve basic service coverage targets the need to maximize economic spin-offs from infrastructure delivery through job creation requirements in terms of MIG funds and municipal budgets, as well as project registration and reportingrequirements.THE MUNICIPAL INFRASTRUCTURE GRANT (MIG)162004 - 2007

Conditions for the use of MIG fundsThe MIG programme will define‘basic infrastructure for the differenttypes of infrastructureWhat can MIG funds be used for?MIG funds may be used for: capital investment - including project management costs basic infrastructure which is used by the poor building new infrastructure and rehabilitating existing infrastructureA limit on capital spending perhousehold will be set. The amount ofspending on particular types ofinfrastructure may also be limited.(i.e reconstruction of infrastructure which hasreached the end of its life)The municipality must invest anappropriate proportion of the funds onrehabilitating existing infrastructure. Upgrading existing infrastructure to basic levels project feasibility studies and project business plans ensuring sound operational arrangements for the infrastructure.What can MIG funds not be used for?MIG funds cannot be used for: The internal services that are provided as part of a housing package because these are funded by aseparate housing subsidy Infrastructure that is used by communities that are not poor (the municipality must use other capitalfunds for this infrastructure) Institutional capacity building of the municipality (capacity building grants must be used for this purpose) The costs of operating the infrastructure Pledging of funds to secure loan finance Any projects that are outside the framework of the municipality’s IDP Any projects that are not included in the municipality’s approved budget.THE MUNICIPAL INFRASTRUCTURE GRANT (MIG)172004 - 2007

Financial, capacity and reporting conditions of MIGA municipality must also comply with the following conditions. It must: submit its financial statements to the Auditor-General on time demonstrate that it has the capacity to manage the infrastructure investment programme prepare and submit all monthly reports on how it has used the grant in a prescribed format bya specified time allocate MIG funds in the municipal budget prepare a project business plan for each project (which conforms with the requirements of the MIGprogramme) register projects on the national MIG database.Further conditions may be established for individual sectors towards ensuring sustainability of projects.How will compliance with the conditions be measured?Some of the conditions relate to what MIG funds can be used for, others relate to how a municipality managesand reports on MIG funds. The MIG programme has indicators for each condition so that it is easy to measu
