The meeting took place as part of Mr Mashatile’s role as chair of the Water Task Team, a body established to address water-related issues across the nation.

Mr Mashatile, who typically serves as Deputy President, is currently standing in for President Cyril Ramaphosa, who is away on a state visit to China.

The talks come as South Africa grapples with persistent drought conditions in several regions, putting strain on water resources and infrastructure.
