  • 250 CHAPTER 8 MARTIAL LAW, the LINGERING WAR, and ITS SOCIO-POLITICAL IMPACT on NATAL AFRIKANERS Martial Law Was Declared In
    University of Pretoria etd – Wassermann, J M (2005) 250 CHAPTER 8 MARTIAL LAW, THE LINGERING WAR, AND ITS SOCIO-POLITICAL IMPACT ON NATAL AFRIKANERS Martial Law was declared in all of Natal on 23 October 18991 to act as Athe public law of self- defence (and) the right to use military means to preserve the peace against public enemies within.@2 The military commander of each area was responsible for the administration thereof. Martial Law gave the military authorities the power to use extreme measures to maintain safety and security. To achieve this movements were restricted, passes were issued,3 people were arrested and removed from their farms, and property was commandeered.4 Like most instances of Martial Law, the populace found the conditions deplorable and oppressive, and as the war dragged on beyond June1900, the relentless pressure on Natal Afrikaners made it difficult for them to manoeuver under the jingoistic wartime conditions. In Natal Martial Law was initially upheld by the Indemnity Bill published on 5 June 1900 to protect Athe Governor of the Colony, and the Officer Commanding her Majesty=s Forces in Natal, and all persons acting under their authority and in good faith in regard to acts during the existence of Martial Law.@5 This bill was subsequently updated by other Indemnity Bills as circumstances changed.6 The community of Natal Afrikaners received the bill with mixed emotions. On the one hand people such as Ds HF Schoon argued that it would sanction all kinds of abuses by the authorities,7 while the Afrikaner politician, CJ Labuschagne, who himself was innocently imprisoned under Martial Law, voted in favour of the Indemnity Bill.8 In the light of the above the emphasis in this chapter will be twofold.

  • Existing Persberg Dam Wall Phase 1 Heritage Impact
    EXISTING PERSBERG DAM WALL, PERSBERG FARM (PORTION LINDE NO 4733) SITUATED NEAR HELPMEKAAR, MSINGA LOCAL MUNICIPALITY, UMZINYATHI DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY, KWAZULU- NATAL Phase 1 Heritage Impact Assessment 15 August 2019 FOR: Afzelia Environmental Consultants Deshni Naicker AUTHOR: JLB Consulting Jean Beater EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Applicant commenced with listed activities within a watercourse on Persberg Farm in August 2015 without the required authorisation. The dam wall has been raised to a height of 8.5 m and the dam covers an area of 8.4 hectares and is estimated to hold a capacity of 152 000 m³ (cubic meters) of water when full. As a result of a non-compliance with Section 25 of NEMA, a rectification process was commenced that included a Basic Assessment process in terms of the EIA Regulations, 2014 (as amended on 7 April 2017). This Heritage Impact Assessment (HIA) report forms part of the Basic Assessment process. Interim comment received from the KwaZulu-Natal Amafa and Research Institute, the provincial heritage authority, stated that the development footprint falls within the red zone of the palaeontology sensitivity zone (very high fossil sensitivity) meaning that a palaeontologist must complete a survey of the development area. Furthermore, the area where the proposed development footprint is located used to have old structures situated close by and the area may therefore contain heritage artefacts or graves hence a heritage impact assessment (HIA) is required. This Phase 1 HIA report is in response to this requirement. The dam is situated within a watercourse on Persberg Farm (Portions Linde No 4733) that falls in the Msinga Local Municipality that falls within the Umzinyathi District Municipality, KwaZulu- Natal.

  • 1. Introduction
    ENDUMENI MUNICIPAL HOUSING PLAN 1. INTRODUCTION: 1.1 While the Endumeni Municipality has been very proactive with respect to addressing housing issues within the municipal area (in terms of undertaking research and planning, conducting public consultation and the facilitation of housing delivery), the need to undertake further work was identified during the 2005/2006 IDP Review process and municipal funds were accordingly allocated for the preparation of a Municipal Housing Plan. 1.2 Maseko Hlongwa and Associates (in association with BCP Engineers) was appointed, in December 2004, to assist the Endumeni Municipality with the preparation of a Municipal Housing Plan. The Municipal Housing Plan has been prepared as a sector plan, for inclusion in the Endumeni Integrated Development Plan (IDP) during the 2005/06 IDP Review process. 1.3 For the purposes of this plan, it is noted that “housing” refers to an integrated approach to development using the delivery of shelter as the primary focus. As indicated in Figure 1 below, housing includes, among others, the development of housing units, service delivery, the upgrading of land tenure rights, social and community development and planning policy issues. Future housing projects should facilitate the attainment of all of these development goals. Figure 1: Housing Concept SUSTAINABLE HUMAN SETTLEMENT Shelter Community Facilities Community Facilities Poverty Alleviation Poverty Alleviation NATION BUILDING NATION Service Delivery DEVELOPMENT INTEGRATED INTEGRATED Land Tenure J Self Esteem ob Creation Policy Legislation Programmes Budget SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT Further, housing delivery within the Endumeni Municipal Area occurs in two different forms.
