British intelligence got wind of the plan, apprehended the agents, and quietly returned them to South Africa, thereby avoiding a political row that would have embarassedJohn Major as much as F W de Merk. ' Now one of the agents, Leon Flores, has been sacked by the SADF for acting without authority. The other agent, Captain Pamela do Randt, has apparently been cleared. Questions raised by the AAM about the affair, including whether the pait were ever sent to the Crow Prosecution Services, remain unanswered by the British government. n South Africa Electoral arithmetic ELECTION talk is in the air in South Africa. Although no agreement is yet in sight on when and how a Constituent Assembly will be established, the main contestants mn any future election based on the principle of oneperson one-vote, are already preparing for it. The ANC has drafted two of the weightiest figures of the exUDF leadership into an elections committee - Popo Molefe and Patrick 'Terror' Lekota. The latter was previously attached to the ANC's intelligence department A programme of training 4,000 activists in 'basicvotereducation' has also been launched. The ruling National Party, which in June launched its election campaign, is desperately searching for ways of attracting at least 4 million black voters to add to the great majority of the 3.2 million wite voters it expects to support it. This would give it about 40% of a 15 million-strong electorate. But an ofbical of the Home Affairs Dept. has conceded that there could be about 17 million eligible to vote, evenwithoutthe reincorporation of the four 'independent' Bantustanswhich would bring the total to more than twenty million voters. This is the contest in which De Klerk chose to bringtse Codesa 1 talks lastMay to a halt by insisting that decisions be taken by 75% of elected representatives - a position he has since reportedly dropped. Meanwhile, with typical unawareness of the irony of its actions, the regime has launched the prisons department on a crash programme using convicts to build voting booths and make ballot boxes.

    Safrica Page 1 of 42 Recent Reports Support HRW About HRW Site Map May 1995 Vol. 7, No.3 SOUTH AFRICA THREATS TO A NEW DEMOCRACY Continuing Violence in KwaZulu-Natal INTRODUCTION For the last decade South Africa's KwaZulu-Natal region has been troubled by political violence. This conflict escalated during the four years of negotiations for a transition to democratic rule, and reached the status of a virtual civil war in the last months before the national elections of April 1994, significantly disrupting the election process. Although the first year of democratic government in South Africa has led to a decrease in the monthly death toll, the figures remain high enough to threaten the process of national reconstruction. In particular, violence may prevent the establishment of democratic local government structures in KwaZulu-Natal following further elections scheduled to be held on November 1, 1995. The basis of this violence remains the conflict between the African National Congress (ANC), now the leading party in the Government of National Unity, and the Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP), the majority party within the new region of KwaZulu-Natal that replaced the former white province of Natal and the black homeland of KwaZulu. Although the IFP abandoned a boycott of the negotiations process and election campaign in order to participate in the April 1994 poll, following last minute concessions to its position, neither this decision nor the election itself finally resolved the points at issue. While the ANC has argued during the year since the election that the final constitutional arrangements for South Africa should include a relatively centralized government and the introduction of elected government structures at all levels, the IFP has maintained instead that South Africa's regions should form a federal system, and that the colonial tribal government structures should remain in place in the former homelands.

  • 2009-2010 Annual Report
    1 BUILT ENVIRONMENT SUPPORT GROUP Vision BESG envisions a future in which all people in South Africa will live in a participatory democracy with equal access to habitable and sustainable living environments and livelihood security. Mission BESG exists to support the poor and vulnerable to access resources and increasingly gain control over their lives and destinies, through the promotion of sustainable livelihoods and habitable environments, achieving basic socio-economic rights and capacitating local government, with added emphasis on small rural towns. 2 1. CHAIRMAN’S REPORT The year ending 28th February 2010 saw a period of stabilisation and moderate growth following the implementation of BESG’s turn-around strategy over the previous 3 years. BESG remains firmly rooted in its core programmes of building sustainable human settlements, and promoting good governance and deepening democracy. Its gradual shift to a new donor-funded base has enabled BESG to be more strategic and focused, and rekindle some of the radicalism that characterises an organisation with a strong human rights ethic. This is reflected in the activities that are recorded in the Executive Director’s report. Shortly before the commencement of the finance year, BESG activated a long-standing plan to separate its charitable and trading activities. This resulted in the establishment of BESG Development Services, which will in future undertake service delivery work to clients in the fields of research, training, project management, and facilitation. BESG Development Services is managed by the same Board of Directors and runs by secondment of BESG staff as and when work is required. Interested persons who want to now more of its services may inquire through our office where you will be routed to an appropriate staff member.

  • List of Outstanding Trc Beneficiaries
    List of outstanding tRC benefiCiaRies JustiCe inVites tRC benefiCiaRies to CLaiM tHeiR finanCiaL RePaRations The Department of Justice and Constitutional Development invites individuals, who were declared eligible for reparation during the Truth and Reconciliation Commission(TRC), to claim their once-off payment of R30 000. These payments will be eff ected from the President Fund, which was established in accordance with the Promotion of National Unity and Reconciliation Act and regulations outlined by the President. According to the regulations the payment of the fi nal reparation is limited to persons who appeared before or made statements to the TRC and were declared eligible for reparations. It is important to note that as this process has been concluded, new applications will not be considered. In instance where the listed benefi ciary is deceased, the rightful next-of-kin are invited to apply for payment. In these cases, benefi ciaries should be aware that their relationship would need to be verifi ed to avoid unlawful payments. This call is part of government’s attempt to implement the approved TRC recommendations relating to the reparations of victims, which includes these once-off payments, medical benefi ts and other forms of social assistance, establishment of a task team to investigate the nearly 500 cases of missing persons and the prevention of future gross human rights violations and promotion of a fi rm human rights culture. In order to eff ectively implement these recommendations, the government established a dedicated TRC Unit in the Department of Justice and Constitutional Development which is intended to expedite the identifi cation and payment of suitable benefi ciaries.
