Unter den diskutierten Möglichkeiten eines neuen Regierungssystems in Südafrika spielt die 'Natal Option' - die angestrebte gemeinsame Rechtsprechung und Verwaltung der Provinz Natal einschl. des Homelands KwaZulu durch alle in Natal vertretenen Bevölkerungsgruppen - als Testfall für eine gesamtnationale Lösung eine prominente Rolle. Beginn der Verhandlungen und Teilnehmer. Rolle von Buthelezi; angestrebte Ziele; Opposition von links und rechts; Reaktionen von Wissenschaft und Politik. Probleme gibt es vor allem dadurch, daß die zu erwartenden Beschlüsse der KwaNatal-Indaba (inzwischen liegen sie vor - d. Red.) noch bestehende zentrale Apartheidsgesetze berühren und den von Pretoria als unverzichtbar angesehenen Minderheitenschutz nicht ausreichend berücksichtigen. (DÜI-Hlb)

This is a conference paper. ; South Africa is a water scarce country which is periodically afflicted by severe and prolonged meteorological droughts. No area is immune, and includes the province of KwaZulu-Natal which receives about twice as much rainfall as the other provinces in South Africa, and has about 40 per cent of the country's rainfall runoff. A prolonged period of below average rainfall in the late 1980's had a cumulative effect on the country's water resources and when the seasonal rainfall for 1992-93 was the second consecutive year of rainfall below 75 per cent (Calow et al, 1996), the impact was devastating. Most of the areas worst affected had large rural populations. This drought exacerbated an already existing problem of inadequate water supplies. The response to this crisis was for a group of government and non-government organisations to jointly launch a drought relief programme in all affected areas. This programme was terminated in December 1993 with the onset of good rains at the start of the 1993-94 wet season. In retrospect, it was terminated prematurely as the rains ended early and many areas remained in a water-stressed situation. A second drought relief programme, organised and executed primarily by the Department of Water Affairs and Forestry (DWAF), was initiated in the northern part of the country in September 1994 and with continuing poor rainfall at the start of the 1994-95 wet season, in KwaZulu-Natal in January 1995. The procedures used in conducting the drought relief exercise differed slightly throughout the country according to circumstance. This paper discusses the methodology applied to the province of KwaZulu-Natal, particularly to the Zululand region in the north.

In September 1992 a conference was held at the University of Natal in Pietermaritzburg. This Briefing is a slightly amended version which sets out the issues raised by that conference.

A substantial amount of effort and resources have been put into regional and sub-regional planning in KwaZulu-Natal over the last five years. At a time of demarcation changes and the advent of new rounds of planning for the incoming District and Local Councils, it is appropriate to take stock of what has been achieved, and to consider what changes will be required to meet future local government needs. The objectives of this research project were to investigate the recent regional and sub-regional planning that has been undertaken in KwaZulu-Natal; to identify the strengths and weaknesses of these integrated development plans; to assess how useful and effective they have been in guiding development and investment; to identify examples of good practice in methodology and content; and to make recommendations as to how these plans can be modified to meet the requirements of the new Councils.
