4. The Committee noted with concern apparent lack of communication and co- operation among state organs to ensure that the process of land restitution is brought to finality through release of state land for restitution. The RLCC in the Western Cape can not resolve land claims because it is entangled in lengthy processes of negotiations which it was unclear as to whether there will be any resolution hence frustration by the claimants. An example was the City of Cape Town and the Department of Public Works. The Committee further noted an input by the opposition on its own investigation of lack of cooperation from the City of Cape Town and the Provincial Government of the Western Cape. The City of Cape Town denied that they were delaying the process and that they have no knowledge of such negotiations with the RLCC.
