Matiase, Mr NS to ask the Minister of Agriculture, Land Reform and Rural Development

Whether she has included any farms falling under the Gwatyu area in the Eastern Cape in the list of farms advertised for disposal to emerging farmers; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, what will happen to the black communities already living and farming in the area?

Reply:

Yes. The land rights enquiry has already been conducted and priority will be given to the current occupiers (black communities) confirmed to be having land rights for occupancy and land use formalization.
