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.
