In terms of Section 13 of the Code of Conduct it is the legal duty of the Speaker to authorise an investigation when there is reasonable suspicion that the Code of Conduct has been breached. There are ample mechanisms within the Code of Conduct which make it possible for a Speaker to act against any councillor when there is a possible breach of the Code of Conduct.
The proper application of the Code of Conduct is now in the hands of the Speaker who is responsible for the order and discipline in the council.Possible breach of the Code of Conduct Referred to the Speaker of the Swellendam Municipality
