  • Ms Helen Zille Premier Mr Dan Plato MEC of Community Safety Cc
    25 August 2016 Att: Ms Helen Zille Premier Mr Dan Plato MEC of Community Safety Cc: Ms Debbie Schäfer MEC for Education Prof. Nomafrench Mbombo MEC of Health Mr Albert Fritz MEC for Social Development Ms Anroux Marais MEC of Cultural Affairs and Sport YOUTH DEMAND A SAFE ENVIRONMENT CONDUCIVE TO LEARNING AND DEVELOPMENT MEMORANDUM FROM THE SOCIAL JUSTICE COALITION AND EQUAL EDUCATION 1. The rights to life, dignity, equality and freedom, including freedom from all forms of violence, underpinned the original complaints by our organisations and others that led to the convening of the Khayelitsha Commission of Inquiry (the Commission). 2. As we mark its second anniversary we admit to our anger and frustration at the inaction from all levels of government to take forward the Commission’s recommendations. 3. The Commission’s report released on 25 August 2014 was aimed at improving safety and policing in Khayelitsha, the Western Cape and South Africa. The burden of crime faced by some of the most vulnerable people in our communities and the inefficiencies of the South African Police Service (SAPS) were at the core of the Commission’s work. In addition, the absence of safety because of criminal violence and inadequate social service provision has meant that people cannot access safe schooling, sanitation, transport, clinics and other constitutionally protected services. 4. We acknowledge that the majority of the Commission’s recommendations have been directed at the SAPS - a national function. Some recommendations however require proactive steps to be taken by the Western Cape Government (WCG). Recommendation 12 – A Multi-Sectoral Task Team on Youth Gangs 5.
