The Local Government District Information Handbook for Qacha’s Nek pro-

vides essential data on the socio-economic aspects of the District, disaggre-

gated Council wise. The broad objective of this database is to assist Local

Government, Government Ministries, NGOs, community groups, individuals

and others to understand the socio-economic status and profile of each of the

Community Councils so that they can partner better with the Local Govern-

ment. This information is provided to facilitate informed decision making at

District and Community Council level while at the same time informing the na-

tional Local Government database, at a subsequent stage. We hope that this

Handbook will become a reference information book for all information per-

taining to Local Government in this district.

The information is presented in the form of tables providing statistical and de-

scriptive information of the Councils. These include data on the general profile

of the Councils, social indicators, gender issues, and information about selected

sectors, namely, agriculture, trade, health, HIV & AIDS, education, water, roads,

communication, energy, environment, etc. �

Page 9: Qacha's Nek District Council

The local government elections, held for the first

time in Lesotho in 2005, led to the establishment

of 128 Community Councils, 10 District Councils

and the Maseru Municipal Council with about

1508 Councillors. Each Council has indirectly

elected Chairpersons and Vice Chairpersons as

well as a number of Standing Committees for spe-

cific purposes. The process of Administrative

deconcentration and integration at the District

level is coordinated by the District Administrator

who represents the interests of Central Government

in the district. The process of political and service

decentralisation is being managed on a day to day

level by the District Council Secretary. Each Dis-

trict and Community Council has a Local Govern-

ment Service staff compliment to assist in the

operations of the councils. A number of staff from

about nine Line Ministries, who perform functions

that have been decentralised to Local Government,

is assigned to work under a designated Council �

The process of development of this Handbook has been coordinated and supervised by Department of

Planning, Ministry of Local Government and Chieftainship (MOLGC). The following data collectors were

engaged and worked under the supervision of Community Council Secretaries (CCSs) to collect data:

Motšelisi Mataboee, Tebello Nthakong, Makatoko Letsie, Lefulesele Motlomelo Phatela, ‘Mancholu Mole-

mohi, Nteboheleng Lefulebe. Engagement of Data collectors and technical design of the process was sup-

ported by German Technical Cooperation GTZ. This information was collected using a CC Fact Sheet

(Annex 1) whose respondents were the councilors and their support staff. A detailed or intensive house-

hold survey was not employed. This is a first attempt at collating key information trends aggregated as

per CC boundaries. This information will be revised through updating, and subsequently validated against

other secondary data sources, especially from the concerned sectors at the district level �
