   The number of houses mentioned above have thus been erected by Blacks in terms of the selfbuild scheme with loans provided by the South African Development Trust.

Furthermore an applicant must submit all substantiating evidence/documents and duly certified copies hereof are placed on the Department’s records/files prior to the approval of applications or the continued payment of a social pension/grant. More stringent control measures have also been applied to the issuing of face-value forms, whilst the review procedures pertaining to social pensions/grants have been tightened with the result that pensions/grants are reviewed more regularly in order to ascertain whether the continued payment thereof is justified.
