asked the Minister of Community Development:
- (1) Whether any municipal councils have asked to be relieved of the requirement to set aside 50 per cent of houses built for Coloured people for the resettlement of persons moved under group area proclamations; if so, (a) which municipal councils and (b) with what results;
- (2) whether he will ensure that his Department will not carry out further removals in terms of group area proclamations until such time as adequate provision has been made for the housing of homeless or inadequately housed Coloured persons; if not, why not.
- (1) Yes.
- (a) Only the Cape Town City Council.
- (b) The concession was allowed in order to move the 219 families from the shanty town known as Valley of Plenty to the Coloured housing scheme at Hanover Park. The resettlement will commence on the 26th February, 1971, and will result in faster clearance of slum conditions.
- (2) The policy is to see to it that provision is made for homeless persons and that resettlement goes hand in hand with housing. In practice it is quite often the case that persons who must be resettled are those who have the greatest need for proper housing and resettlement, with a few exceptions, leads to the occupation of better houses for the persons being moved.
