1. According to our database, we do not have any records of land claim lodged on the farm Haakdoornkuil 323 KR and the Office of the Regional Land Claims Commissioner: Limpopo received a land claim lodged by Kekana Matsobane Petrus on behalf of Motekwana Community on the farm Klipfontein 322 KR.
The said land claim was received on the 20th of November 2014, such land claims are not being processed due to the outcome of the Constitutional Court ordered that the claims that were lodged between 1 July 2014 and 27 July 2016 are validly lodged, but it interdicted the Commission from processing those claims until the Commission has finalised the claims lodged by 31 December 1998 or until Parliament passes a new law providing for the re-opening of lodgement of land claims. Parliament was given until 27 July 2018 to pass such a law.
