“The Minister of Local Government and Public Works has approved Hwedza Rural District Council 2023 budget in terms of section 47 of Public Finance Management Act chapter [ 22:19].

“The local Authority has a great potential to generate more revenue.

“In this regard council should explore more effective revenue collection strategies,” reads the letter.
