On 8 and 9 November 2012, the department carried out the demolition of incomplete and unoccupied structures in the area. The demolition that was carried out was with regard to incomplete structures which were not occupied at the time of being demolished. There were 54 stands that were cleared so far. However, the rubble in the area had not yet been removed since that would be undertaken at a later stage. No people were evicted and displaced as a result of the demolition. No injuries occurred and no arrests were carried out on both days. It was also reported that 11 applicants who were the illegal occupants of some of the properties earmarked for demolition had since made an application to court for an interdict to stop the department from demolishing the 11 properties. The matter was still before the court and no decision had been granted yet. The department would provide the Committee with progress on the matter.
