All eyes will be on KwaZulu-Natal Premier Sihle Zikalala, as he delivers his State of the Province Address in Pietermaritzburg on Wednesday.
Zikalala will outline the provincial government's plans for the year.
The Democratic Alliance hopes service delivery takes centre stage. KZN leader, Zwakele Mncwango says the Premier needs to urgently speak about the province's water supply problems.
"How this government is planning to ensure that there is proper infrastructure, and we also retain skills for those who maintain skills water infrastructure in Ugu district and also other parts of KZN."
The IFP's Thami Ntuli says Zikalala must first give feedback on where they are on last year's promises.
[We want to know] "how does he intends to address the failures of the previous plan. Also, to address the issue of the economy."

Simo Mkhwanazi from the NFP wants to see a plan for job creation.
