The IDP process must therefore reflect the priority issues/needs of the municipality and the residents within the wider municipal area. Roles and responsibilities of the various actors in the IDP process should be. Since the promulgation of the Municipal Financial Management Act (Act 56 of 2003) it has been essential to align the IDP process (S28 of MSA) with the Performance Management process (Municipal Planning and Performance Management Regulations (Ch.3, 2(g)) and the Budget process (A 21, 22 and 23 of MFMA).

Introduction
National Growth and Development Strategies Government‟s targets for 2014 are
Focusing of Intergovernmental Relations on service delivery and development outcomes in the context of the Intergovernmental Relations Framework Bill. To ensure that integrated sustainable human settlements and resilient and vibrant municipal economies are at the heart of government objectives. The above issues should be reflected in the Regional Growth and Development Strategies and in the Local and District IDPs.
National Spatial Development Perspective (NSDP)
Retail and Services Retail, catering and personal services are important components of any economy and a major employer of semi-skilled workers in the major post-industrial economies of the world. In the 1990s, the area between Tshwane and Johannesburg generated 24% of the GDP growth; at 0.2 of the national footprint.5 There is a very real risk that the agglomeration economies driving the trend of spatial concentration could result in many cities, towns and rural regions that used to be thriving centers of trade becoming economically marginalized and become dependent on the state. handouts for survival. Until 2000, local government authorities in South Africa had little in common with the functional areas of the urban concentrations they governed.
ASGI-SA
Current projections show no major changes in this pattern of economic activity, which reinforces the tendency for concentrated growth in major urban regions. Given the lack of emphasis on the Siyanda region in the wider national spatial scene, it is imperative to strategically position itself as a transport and service hub that provides alternative access routes. It is imperative for Upington to lobby for greater support from the NSDP and ASGI-SA in providing support and funding for secondary cities to fit into the national spatial agenda.
Conserve and protect 6.5% of our valuable biodiversity by 2014; and provide adequate infrastructure for economic growth and development. By integrating the programs and budgets of those institutions that are jointly responsible for promoting growth and development in the Northern Cape, it should be possible to increase the developmental impact of their spending in the province. Despite the limitations of conditions imposed by the national government, the provincial government remains an important catalyst for economic growth and social development.

With all the development happening in the area, the demand for water has increased as in the rest of the semi-arid province. Groundwater exploitation is important in the area and forms the only source of water over many of the rural areas. The public participation process in the District Municipality, which contributed to the Analysis Phase, depended on the participation of the Local Municipalities.

The table below identifies the critical elements within the five Key Performance Areas (KPA) that the SPM has assigned itself and to link it to the Directorate primarily responsible for the specific KPA, although it must be recognized that it is a corporate function and the responsibility of meets the Corporate Center – Executive Management Team. The table also links the proposed strategic objectives within each KPA with targets - including and linked to national and provincial targets and objectives. Therefore, the table articulates the 5-year focus and priority emphasis in each of the KPAs.

- ASPECTS WHICH NEED ATTENTION
The process was organized and carried out in the best way through which the Municipality could ensure the involvement and participation of the community and provide a service to every person within the Municipal Area. It was therefore also the part of the process on which the most time and effort was spent. This is only the beginning of the new way of working on future planning of the respective area.
In future audit processes, greater emphasis should be placed on the integration phase of the document as well as monitoring the effective and successful implementation of projects. The integrated development planning is a dynamic process which does not stop with the finalization of the document or its approval and submission to provincial governments, but the actual implementation starts only after that. It is only the beginning of the new way of working towards future planning of the respective area.
In future revision processes, more attention should be paid to the Integration phase of the document, as well as to the monitoring of the effective and successful implementation of projects. With this in mind, this municipality has already attempted to address some of the above-mentioned gaps in this IDP review process and is committed to continuing to do so to improve local development management. The concept of sustainable development is enshrined in the South African Constitution and is an important theme in most of the major policies and legislation promulgated since 1994.
Thus, the municipality at the local level is obliged to take care of the compliance of planning and implementation with the principles of sustainable development.
