# Minister of Finance Enoch Godongwana says he is dissatisfied with the progress reports from the City of Johannesburg, as he plans to instruct the National Treasury to stop the transfer of funds to the metro. In a letter to mayor Dada Morero, the minister says this step is necessitated by the metro adopting an unfunded 2025/2026 budget and persistent failure to address wasteful expenditure. Johannesburg owes Eskom 3.7-billion-rand and Rand Water 1.2-billion-rand. Godongwana has given the metro until tomorrow to explain why the transfer of funds should continue.
