Abstract
South African policy gives effect to the constitutional right and access to basic water services. Despite commitment, the implementation of policy has led to disappointing outcomes, particularly in rural municipalities.Planned and actual interventions implemented in practice in a rural Eastern Cape community were investigated. Planned implementation interventions were shown to be challenged by the lack of coordinating capacity that is required to make the program operational.Focus group methodology was used to capture the intended target group’s perceptions of implementation. The Thandela Community shared the understanding that the rural municipality has limited resources to implement and follow-up on implementation processes in remote rural areas.The value of the equitable and sustainable policy is lost in implementation because resources are regulated through a rational approach that has excluded social values. The study highlighted the importance of multiple views, and the initiation of actors who have different views on what is important.
