Minister Simmers to hand over title deeds in Mamre

2 March 2022

Today, 2 March 2022, Western Cape Minister of Human Settlements Tertuis Simmers, will hand over 6 title deeds to residents in Mamre. 

Mamre is one of twenty-four ‘Act 9 of 1987’ rural areas in the Republic of South Africa, which meant that residents could not by law own land within the area.
 
Minister Simmers said: “The opportunity to empower these residents with their title deeds is quite significant, as now they will finally remove the yoke of the past and legally own their properties. This is a life changing moment and I’m looking forward to sharing in their joy.”
