21 May 2018 - NW1132
Bergman, Mr D to ask the Minister of Public Works
(1) With regard to his department’s property on 5 Main Road, Irene, Centurion, what (a) was the outcome of the inspection conducted in December 2015; and (b) remedial action did the inspection exercise suggest to correct the findings; (2) whether the remedial action was carried out; if not, why not; if so, what is the current zoning of the erf?
Reply:
(1) (a) A report was compiled by the Department of Public Works’ Professional Services branch, which indicated that the property is not habitable, and not suitable for use.
(b) This report was subsequently handed to the occupant for their immediate remedial action. The occupant duly committed to reinstate the house to its original state.
(2) No, remedial action has not been carried out by the occupant. A process of eviction has since been instituted by the Department of Public Works.
The current zoning of the erf is residential.
