Rand water owed
JOHANNESBURG - Rand Water is concerned about escalating municipal debt due to non-payment from municipalities.
The utility is owed R3-billion, with Gauteng leading with a debt of R2-billion followed by Mpumalanga municipalities with R1-billion.

It is urging defaulting municipal customers to treat this matter with the utmost urgency.
