To understand sanitation regulatory enforcement roles, the study was guided by an objective which explored how regulatory institutions enforce sanitation standards in Lusaka's peri-urban communities. Working from an Interpretive phenomenology perspective, the researcher co-created meanings through interactions with the stakeholders during data collection stage. The researcher analyzed data using a manual reflexive thematic analysis. The study revealed that Lusaka City Council play a dual role in on-site sanitation delivery. Lusaka City Council regulates on-site sanitation enforce sanitation standards and service provision. The study further found that the Local stakeholders proved essential in enforcing sanitation laws. This highlight a novel dimension given that sanitation enforcement has always been top-down as opposed to bottom-up enforcement. Moreover, the study disclosed that most residents in peri urban areas were exposed to faecal with a high risk of disease outbreaks. Furthermore, there is inadequate vaccination coverage for the service providers. Another significant challenge was multiple licensing regime which create bottlenecks of on-site sanitation service provision.
