The National Council of Provinces (NCOP) is set to decide on Friday on whether to dissolve the Knysna Municipality over service delivery issues.
Following a meeting at the town this week, the Select Committee on Cooperative Governance is divided over the request from local government MEC Anton Bredell.

But the majority of the eleven-member committee said it doesn’t support dissolution and it has faith in the municipality’s turnaround plan, which it will closely monitor.
On Tuesday, Mayor Thando Matika accused Bredell of politicking and interference in the African National Congress (ANC)-led municipality.
