The national
Department of Public Works and Infrastructure has identified 22 land parcels within the Western Cape province to be released for human settlement purposes. The department has received requests from the Western Cape Provincial Department of Human Settlements, from various municipalities and also from the Housing Development Agency and they have supplied us with all the relevant supporting
documents aligned to the Integrated Development Plan of the municipalities.
These requests are then subjected to the relevant administrative processes and once these processes support the release of the properties for human settlement purposes, then it will get ministerial approval and thereafter it will get the National Treasury endorsement and then thereafter it will be transferred to the relevant municipalities and government entities that had requested land. But we are working on 22 land parcels and once these properties we have gone through all the processes, we will release it as soon as possible.
