New Questions:
asked the Minister of Constitutional Development and Planning:
- (1) Whether any representations have been made to his Department for the rezoning of certain areas known as (a) Block AK and (b) the Warwick Avenue Triangle in Durban; if so, (i) when, (ii) by whom and (iii) what was (aa) the purport of these representations and (bb) his Department’s response thereto;
- (2) whether he will make a statement on the matter?
- (1)
- (a) Yes
- (b) Yes
- (i) In 1986
- (ii) The Durban City Council and the Central Durban Indian Ratepayers Association.
- (iii)
- (aa) The City Council proposed that the areas be declared open “non-racial” areas and that all “racial” restrictions be lifted.
The Ratepayers Association proposed that the areas be proclaimed as Indian group areas. - (bb) The proposals were investigated in the normal manner and because the areas are White group areas, and are therefore own affairs, the Administration: House of Assembly was consulted. This Administration objected strongly to the proposals.
During August 1986 it was recommended to the City Council and the Administration: House of Assembly that consideration be given to the rezoning of the areas for business or commercial purposes and that they then be included in the free trading area of Durban.
In response to this, and after further discussions, the Durban City Council decided to submit a de novo proposal, and this proposal is now being awaited.
- (aa) The City Council proposed that the areas be declared open “non-racial” areas and that all “racial” restrictions be lifted.
- (2) No.
Mr Chairman, arising out of the hon the Minister’s reply, is the hon the Minister first of all aware that for a minimum of 80 years prior to the area in question being declared a White area, it was in fact a mixed area occupied and owned largely by members of the Indian community, but including certain White, Coloured and a few Black families? Secondly, is the hon the Minister aware that it was as a result of legalised robbery that the land in question was taken away and devastated in terms of the Group Areas Act?
Mr Chairman, in this case I was replying on behalf of my colleague. This is not the field I deal with, so I would not be able to comment on the hon member’s remarks.
asked the Minister of Home Affairs:
- (1) Whether a certain film, the name of which has been furnished to the Minister’s Department for the purpose of his reply, has been passed by the Directorate of Publications; if not, why not; if so, what is the name of this film;
- (2) whether any restrictions have been imposed on the screening of this film; if so, (a) what restrictions and (b) why;
- (3) whether his Department has received any complaints and/or protests regarding the screening of this film; if so, (a) from whom and (b) what was his Department’s response thereto;
- (4) whether he will make a statement on the matter?
(1) to (4) I wish to make the following statement on this matter.
The Directorate of Publications has no authority to approve or reject films for screening to the public. However, a committee of publications, consisting of 6 members, examined the film “Cry Freedom” in terms of section 21 of the Publications Act, 1974, and approved the film. No restrictions were imposed by the committee.
Although the film has not yet been released in the RSA for screening, I have received a written complaint froma private individual as well as a number of complaints per telephone. I have also noted letters and reports in the press with a negative purport towards this film.
In my reply to complaints I inter alia explained the defacto situation regarding this film. I also referred to section 24 (1) (b) of the Publication Act, 1974, which empowers me to direct the Publications Appeal Board to reconsider a decision of a committee of publications. I have, however, not had the opportunity to view the film.
— Law and Order.
