An assessment of the effects of the Sector Oversight Model on the performance of members of the KwaZulu-Natal Legislature was accomplished through data collected from a sample of sixty members of the legislature and full-time government officials. The objectives of the study were to evaluate the implementation of the Sector Oversight Model within KwaZuluNatal Legislature, to evaluate the impact of the Sector Oversight Model on management capabilities of members, to assess the effect of the Sector Oversight Model on provincial departments’ accountability, and to provide possible recommendations to the members of the KwaZulu-Natal Legislature and other relevant stakeholders. The literature review defined oversight and accountability and dealt with their inter relationship in relation to holding the executive arm of government accountable.
