S.Africa: Mossel Bay land claims settled

WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

S.Africa: Mossel Bay land claims settled

[There are stacks of land claims being processed all the time. Eventually the Government will run out of money to do this. Then they’ll just start stealing it. Jan]

Cape Town – Thirteen landowners and five tenants deprived of their land under apartheid will receive R683,280 in compensation from the Western Cape Commission on the Restitution of Land Rights on Saturday.

According to a statement released on Friday, the handover ceremony would take place at the Mossel Bay school sport hall on Saturday morning.

The claims were for five individual tenancy rights and 13 ownership rights lost on 21 properties situated in Mossel Bay central and The Bakke area.

Overall, 31 claims were received for Mossel Bay central.

Dispossessions took effect from 1961 onwards when Mossel Bay central was declared a white group area under the Group Areas Act. Before the dispossessions, the area was racially integrated.

The commission said Saturday’s restitution would bring the commission closer to settling all the claims lodged in the Mossel Bay area.

“There are, however, a few claims that need further research, which will provide the state with a sound basis to settle the claims as soon as possible,” read the statement.

The Land Claims Commission has now settled 46 727 claims countrywide costing over R2.8bn and was committed to settle all claims lodged before December 31, 1998 by the end of 2005.
