    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.

    Western Cape Government Provincial Treasury BUDGET 2018 SPEECH Minister of Finance Dr IH Meyer 6 March 2018 Budget Speech 2018 Western Cape Government Honourable Speaker and Deputy Speaker Honourable Premier and Cabinet Colleagues Honourable Leader of the Official Opposition Honourable Leaders of Opposition Parties Honourable Members of the Western Cape Legislature Executive Mayors and Executive Deputy Mayors Speakers and Councillors Senior officials of the Western Cape Government Leaders of the Business Community Citizens of the Western Cape Ladies and Gentlemen Madam Speaker, the 2018 Budget focuses on budgeting for the people, recognising that economic growth and development is critical to improve living standards and socio-economic conditions and therefore the pursuit thereof remains a top priority of this Government. Speaker, sedert die Minister van Finansies sy hoofbegroting in die Parlement ter tafel gelê het op 23 Februarie 2018, het ons nou weer ‘n nuwe Minister by die Nasionale Tesourie. Ek verwelkom die terugkeer van Minister Nene by die Nasionale Tesourie. Minister Nene sal eers die Nasionale Tesourie moet skoonmaak want die agente van staatskaping is deur sy voorganger, Minister Gigaba, in die Nasionale Tesourie ontplooi. Ongelukkig het die Gupta dogmas aspekte van die Nasionale Begroting vertroebel en herbesinning is noodsaaklik as ons uit ‘n begrotingsperspektief ‘n nuwe begin wil maak. Dit sluit in die bestuur van die 2 Budget Speech 2018 Western Cape Government uitgawe kant van die Begroting en of die verhoging in BTW werklik noodsaaklik was gegewe die fiskale konteks. It is my intention to write to Minister Nene to request him to restore the credibility and integrity of the National Treasury as the supreme fiscal authority in South Africa.

    Western Cape Government Provincial Treasury BUDGET 2017 SPEECH Minister of Finance Dr IH Meyer 7 March 2017 Budget Speech 2017 Western Cape Government Honourable Speaker and Deputy Speaker Honourable Premier and Cabinet Colleagues Honourable Leader of the Official Opposition Honourable Leaders of Opposition Parties Honourable Members of the Western Cape Legislature Executive Mayors and Deputy Mayors Speakers and Councillors Senior officials of the Western Cape Government Leaders of the Business Community Citizens of the Western Cape Ladies and Gentlemen Honourable Speaker, it is my honour to table the Western Cape Government’s 2017 Budget. Two weeks ago Premier Helen Zille defined the Western Cape Government’s vision and clear plans to deliver on that vision. Her State of the Province Address gave a detailed account of what was already achieved during the mid-term assessment. It also puts a razor sharp focus on this Government’s plans, projects and time frames for the future. Today, I am presenting the fiscal framework to fund these plans and projects as outlined in this Government’s delivery Agenda. 1 Budget Speech 2017 Western Cape Government Today I am tabling: A Budget for Growth; A Budget for People; and A Budget for Prosperity. Madam Speaker, there is consensus in this Government and in this Cabinet that nothing is more important than growing the economy and creating jobs. This Budget will support growth and job creation. Madam Speaker, nations prosper when they: Show respect for their Constitution and institutions that support constitutional democracy; Show respect for individual freedom, individual choices, and accept individual responsibility for their own future; Accelerate investment in infrastructure; Boost support for small, medium and micro enterprises; Create jobs and reduce unemployment; Promote smart and inclusive growth; and Have access to basic services like water, energy, sanitation and refuse collection.

However, while the Western Cape prides itself as a vacation destination for visitors, residents are faced with social and health problems on an everyday basis as a result of the country’s complex apartheid history. The province remains socially stratified by social class, gender, age, and race in which socio- economically disadvantaged groups, specifically Black and Coloured women and children, are treated differently and live under unfavorable conditions.

    Security and Sustainable Development in Cape Town, South Africa A case study for the DCAF Policy and Research Division Project: SSR for Safer Cities - Supporting States to Achieve SDG 11 By Guy Lamb Safety and Violence Initiative, University of Cape Town October 2018, Geneva Credits and contributors: DCAF project lead: Fairlie Chappuis Editorial support: Daniel Reimers and Jasper Linke Copy-editing: Jo Nicoud-Garden Design and layout: Petra Gurtner First edition: October 2018 Acknowledgements: This project was completed with the support of the Human Security Division of the Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs. Disclaimer: The views expressed in this publication are those of the author, and do not necessarily reflect the opinion or views of the Geneva Centre for the Democratic Control of Armed Forces, the Human Security Division or the Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs. All empirical data used in this publication has been provided by the author. DCAF is not responsible for any errors or omissions. Foreword SSR for Safer Cities - Supporting States to Achieve SDG 11 Safety and security has already become an urban experience for more than half of the world’s population. Against this backdrop, SDG 11 seeks to bring sustainable and peaceful development to the people who live in cities by calling on states to “Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable”. Yet high rates of urban violence reflect a failure to address the challenges of urbanization in national and donor-supported strategies for security and development. Urban violence exacerbates state fragility and human suffering, endangers local and regional peace, and drives uncontrolled migration.

United Nations General Comment 14 (August 2000) 1 | Page Western Cape Submission Realization of Socio-economic Rights 2006 to 2009 – review on progress on the Right to Health – Section 1: Background One of the most crucial challenges has been the absence of a united civil society voice to deal with the lack of progressive realisation of economic and social rights and the nurturing of a democratic society within the Western Cape. SANGOCO Western Cape in collaboration with a range of social formations responded to this call for submissions as a necessary step to enable civil society and labour as social partners to engage and decisively impact on democracy to ensure meaningful participation, development and change. This collaborative submission is made on behalf of the following partners: SANGOCO Western Cape: The South African NGO Coalition (SANGOCO) is the largest single umbrella body of NGOs in Southern African with member organisations across the country working on a range of issues affecting South Africa’s development.

The Constitution of the Republic of South Africa of 1996 was approved by the Constitutional Court on 4 December 1996 and took effect on 4 February 1997.
