President Cyril Ramaphosa has again condemned the illegal occupation of land.
Ramaphosa was delivering the Presidency’s budget in the National Assembly. He congratulated the House for adopting a resolution to expropriate land without compensation. He called on State entities to release unused land to prevent land grabs.
“Municipalities and State Owned Entities need to release unused land and serviced sites for housing so that our people do not resort to self-help measures. We condemn the illegal occupation of land. It slows down development and undermines efforts to manage the spatial transformation of our cities and towns,” says Ramaphosa.
