A vacant scrapyard in 8th Avenue, Re-treat has been stripped of almost all itsheavymetal and steel and is a cause for

concern for the local ward councillor.The building has almost completely been

stripped. Broken bottles, plastic pipes andloose bricks are all that remain of the formerFoentjies Scrap Yard.According to ward councillor Kevin

Southgate, the building, including every-thing and anything that could be sold, hasbeen stripped “by the informal business en-trepreneurs, including gangsters”.“They are now targeting three under-

ground storage tanks that a nearby scrapdealer alleges contains oil and, should thesecriminals – who have already begun exca-vating around these tanks – succeed in re-moving it, the possibility exists that oil canbe spilled andhence present an environmen-tal risk,” Southgate says.He further says the “thieves have no

thought” for the potential risk as their onlyinterest is in getting to the tanks “whichthey will chop up for resale”.The scrapyard was recently sold and

bought by the owner of the Shoprite complexin Retreat Road. Rafiek Dawood was givenoccupation of the property about threemonths ago and says he is aware of the van-dalismand theft of buildingmaterialswhichincludes steel and iron.

“I was only recently made aware of whatis going on at the premises and immediatelysecured the property, but after they (the se-curity guards) were threatened I had to re-move them.”Dawood says while the security guards

were on the premises a group of men in abakkie threatened them repeatedly.“The men who were threatening the secu-

rity guards would show up to the scrapyardin a bakkie. The driver would then drop offa couple of men with power tools and a gen-erator and they would proceed to cut up thesteel and metal on the property,” he says.Dawood says they have reported the inci-

dents to the police and provided them witha description of the bakkie and its registra-tion number.

“At the moment, we have no securitypresent on the property, but in the nextmonth or two we will start with our plansto convert the land into a parking area,” hesays.He further says that he has no knowledge

of any underground tanks.Southgate says the lack of security and de-

terioration of this property have attractedmany criminal elements into the area andhave resulted in surrounding businesses be-ing burgled. “Water pipes have been rippedup, resulting in thousands of litres of waterhaving been lost before the council could un-dertake repairs,” he says.Southgate says should the situation be left

unattended he is afraidmore damages couldbe sustained.

Life-skills project shows youth thewayMOT South Africa, a NPO that facilitates

a life-skills programme among theyouth, held its sixth annual general meetingin Bellville on Monday 22 June.The Western Cape minister of education

Debbie Schäfer was the keynote speaker.The meeting was attended by 168 mem-

bers, including MOT presenters, principalsat TVET colleges and high schools andMOTyouth members. It was held during nationalYouthMonth, focusing onMOT’s core focus:Strengthening the courage and life-skills ofthe youth.The meeting was opened by Prof Eltie

Links, the chairperson of MOT SA, followedby presentations from five youngsters ontheir experiences, challenges and lessonstheyhave learnt, includinghowMOThas in-fluenced them.Schäfer startedher speechbyhighlighting

the lack of positive rolemodels and a senseof belonging among the youth.“We have to give people confidence and a

sense of belonging. We need to give them a

hand and lift themup out of their vulnerablesituations. We need courage,” she said, im-pressed with the positive energy and excite-ment of the youngsters present.“I am pleased to see the results of this

project on the youth who are living underthe most difficult of circumstances. I amlooking forward to continue a partnershipwith MOT and encourage education depart-ment officials to partner with this project.Young people are South Africa’s future,”said Schäfer.MOTSACEOWandaMöller presented the

A new traffic calming policy, aimed at ad-dressing a backlog of requests for speedhumps and with a new focus to protect chil-dren on their way to school, is being consid-ered by the City of Cape Town.According to a statement, residents are

asked to air their views on the new policy.Brett Herron, mayoral committee mem-

ber for transport, explains the City receivesmore than 400 requests for traffic calmingmeasures each year.There is currently a backlog of 500 traffic

calming projects to the value of R30m.Counting among these are requests for

speed humps, raised pedestrian crossings,mini-traffic circles, roadmarkings and roadnarrowing – all devices to force drivers toslow down on residential roads.“Over the past years, we have seen an in-

crease in the number of requests for trafficcalming measures, which can be attributedto the deterioration in driver discipline anda general disregard for the rules of the roadbyall types of roaduser. It has becomeneces-sary to revisit the current regime. As such,a new policy which seeks to prioritise the

implementationof thesemeasureswherepe-destrians, and particularly children, aremost vulnerable.”He explains the purpose of the new policy

is to create a system that is financially sus-tainable, responsive to critical safety prob-lems on residential roads and that will con-tribute to work through the backlog.Part of the new policy proposes that the

transport department implement trafficcalming measures on roads next to existingschools as a matter of priority, with thebenchmark of at least 50 schools per year.It also proposes thatward councillorsmay

identify, motivate and fund traffic calmingmeasures in response to a proven history ofaccidents on a road or in response to a recentand very urgent incident that demands im-mediate intervention.The policy also makes provision for indi-

viduals or organisations to fund trafficcalming measures.V Public participation on the new policy takes placeon Sunday 16 August. You can find the policy at yournearest subcouncil office or library or on www.capetown.gov.za.

The City of Cape Town has urged residentsnot to fall victim to housing scams whichhave been reported in some parts of the city.Benedicta van Minnen, mayoral commit-

tee member for human settlements, saysthat victims should report it to the police.

“It has been confirmed that some resi-dents have fallen victim to these scams andhave indeed ‘bought’ land or housing unitswhich were promised to them through theseillegal sales,” says Van Minnen.The City confirms that scammers, who

claim to be from the human settlements di-rectorate, have been operating with unau-thorised documents which contain the

City’s official logo.In somecases, it has been reported that the

scammers even send an SMS “allocating” anerf number to the duped resident – but theyhave paid for a non-existent erf.“Residents must note that, should a per-

son qualify in terms of the national criteriafor a subsidy, they must not pay any moneyto anyone to be placed on the housing data-

base or to receive a house.”Van Minnen urges applicants to contact

their local housing office to update their de-tails on the housing database so that theycan be contacted easily when their housingopportunity arises.“I also ask those who are not registered to

find out whether they qualify for a subsi-dised housing opportunity.”

City warns against falling into trap of ‘buying’ housing

Sword play eggson top fencerLA-EEQAH ADAMS

@Peoplespost

“Which 9-year-old boy does not wantto play with a sword?”

So muses 19-year-old Robert McGregor,who is currently the top-ranked u.20men’s foilist in the country.

McGregor, a Constantia resident, isone of three Western Cape foilists whowill participate in the CommonwealthFencing Junior Championships for u.20which will take place at the University ofCape Town’s sports centre from Saturdayto Friday next week.

The city is the first African host of thechampionships, which will attract par-ticipants from 14 countries.

McGregor has competed in five juniorworld championships and two junior Af-rican championships and has been fen-cing for 10 years.

“After watching fencing at the OlympicGames on television I was inspired. For-tunately, the school I attended at the timeoffered fencing as a sport,” he says.

McGregor says that in having takenpart in the international and African jun-ior championships and being a seasonedcompetition he “does not plan on under-estimating the opposing countries”.

“We will be competing against the likesof Australia, Canada, England and Singa-pore, who have very strong competitors,but we have a fighting chance and intendto perform and perform well,” he says.

NICOLE MCCAIN@nickymccain

Promoting transparency and accountabili-ty in the police service is the task of SouthAfrica’s first police ombudsman.

The ombudsman’s office was establishedunder the Western Cape Community SafetyAct and is the only one in the country.

Ombudsman Vusi Pikoli, previouslyhead of the National Prosecuting Authori-ty, says the provincial department of com-munity safety was receiving many servicedelivery complaints from the public. Thesewere then forwarded on to the police, as thedepartment was not legally empowered toinvestigate any of them. The Act now takesadvantage of national legislation allowingprovincial government to investigate com-plaints or set up a commission of enquiry,as was seen with the Khayelitsha commis-sion of inquiry.

However, the ombudsman operates en-tirely independently of provincial govern-ment, Pikoli says, and the office will“fiercely protect” that independence.

Service deliveryThe ombudsman’s office oversees 151 sta-

tions across the province and 21 000 offi-cers. Over 40 of these stations fall in theCape Town metro. The office only has threeinvestigators, which makes this a mam-moth task.

Since the office opened in mid-January,it has received almost 150 complaints andenquiries, of which 48 have been resolved.

The office aims to conclude a complaintwithin three months, depending on thecomplexity of the case, Pikoli says.

The ombudsman only deals with servicedelivery complaints, such as the failure ofthe police to arrive after being called outor being rude to public visiting a police sta-tion.

The office also looks into court caseswhich have been thrown out due to investi-gations taking too long, lost dockets or wit-nesses not subpoenaed.

Sustainable solutionsThe ombudsman looks to find systemic

failures and come up with sustainable solu-tions, Pikoli explains.

“The majority of officers are good, law-abiding people who want to do their jobwell. There are only a few who are not dili-gent and tarnish the name of the police,”he says.

The ombudsman’s vision is to build a so-ciety in which there is trust and respect be-tween the police and the community, Pikolisays.V Complaints can be made about the police, trafficofficers and metro police in writing or an appointment can be made with the office. For more information, contact the ombudsman on 021 483 0669 [email protected].

Planned growth in the traffic departmentis set to reduce offences and accidents.The City of Cape Town’s traffic service is

expecting to swell its ranks by over 120 newofficers in the next year.Over 50 traffic officer positions and four

supervisor positions have been approved,says JP Smith, mayoral committeememberfor safety and security. And there are evenmore in the pipeline.The City has made provision for the staff

appointments in the new budget.A total of 60 traffic officer posts still need

to be approved by the council based on aplanned business model and an additional20 traffic officers are expected to be recruit-ed to enhance the newly established trans-port enforcement unit.“The City of Cape Town’s traffic service

is under-staffed. Road safety has becomeone of the most important focus areas dueto the number of deaths and the huge finan-cial cost of traffic accidents,” he says.They are set to introduce a dedicated 24-

hour service, Smith explains.“The newmemberswill add to the visibil-

ity of the service and hopefully help to re-duce the number of offences and accidentson the roads. An additional benefit is the in-direct policing of other crimes,” he says.But the new traffic officers won’t be the

only addition to the service.A new system, which will use dashboard

cameras, is set to be rolled out by the endof next year, Smith says.“The cameraswould enhance the enforce-

ment of offences by recording the activitiesof the staff. This is something that is usedin other countries and has evidential valuein the courts to help with the justice pro-cess,” he says.

LEGAL DEDUCTIONS FROM SOCIAL GRANTS

The SASSA Payment Card

Which Deduction Is Legal?

How can SASSA assist social grant beneficiaries with illegal deductions?

Safety tips for all social grant beneficiaries:

one

0800 60 10 11

Western Cape Helpline @ (021) 469 0235 or 0800 60 10 11.

The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA), would like to provide communities with the

following information regarding social grant deductions:

The SASSA branded payment card, was introduced to allow social grant beneficiaries the convenience of

accessing their social grant anywhere and at any time. The SASSA payment card is a debit card and

allows for cash to be withdrawn from ATM's, purchases to be made from suppliers and legal deductions to

be made. The introduction of the SASSA payment card into the banking system unfortunately also

provided an opportunity for social grant beneficiaries to be exploited through unauthorized deductions.

Before the social grant is paid into the bank account of a beneficiary only deduction is allowed to be

made for a funeral policy, which may not exceed 10% of the total value of the social grant. This premium is

deducted by SASSA before the social grant is paid to the beneficiary and then paid over to the relevant

insurance company.

Once the social grant is paid into the bank account that is linked to the SASSA debit card, legal deductions

instituted by financial entities will take effect for purchases that were made ie: airtime, electricity, micro-

loans, credit instalments, policy premiums etc. Any disputes should be resolved directly between the social

grant beneficiary and the entity that instituted the deduction.

Social grant beneficiaries are requested to report any illegal deductions to the nearest SASSA

office/service point where they will be assisted to complete a claim form so that the matters can be

investigated. Alternatively beneficiaries can contact the SASSA call centre @ where

SASSA staff will record the relevant details and refer the matter for investigation. Where beneficiaries have

not authorized deductions or for their SASSA cards/account details to be used by others, the deducted

amounts will be paid back to them. This is usually done within a period of 3 working days. Should any

social grant beneficiary not receive the required assistance from a SASSA office or staff member this must

be reported to the office manager or the

• Do not to respond to SMS messages offering airtime, electricity and other services. By responding

to these messages, beneficiaries are actually taking on a "subscription" service and the amounts

will be deducted off the bank account through the EFT debit system every month.

• Do not use your SASSA payment card as security for loans and to purchase any financial services

products.

• Do not authorize deductions to be made against your card except for the one funeral policy

deduction that should not exceed 10% of the social grant value.X1Q9NXFW-QK070715

Parents jump infor swimmersTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

A group of parents from Lansdowne,Mitchell’s Plain, Plumstead and Retreat

believe that swimming is not getting asmuch coverage as other sports, making itdifficult to be financed or to get sponsor-ship.For their children to take part in swim-

ming competitions, they say they have todig deeper, but they can’t always afford topay for their travel, amongst other things,when they go to a competition outside theprovince. Tomakematters worse, there arenot enough heated swimming facilities,making it difficult for their children toprac-tise throughout the year.To raisemoney the parents hosted a fund-

raisingdinnerdance for four childrenat theClaremont civic centre last week.

Overwhelming responseThe four swimmers, Camrin Elliot (12),

Nezario Stevens (12), Ciara Payne (11) andInez Marthinus (10), are all level two swim-mers with Vineyard Swimming Club.They have all competed at regional cham-

pionships and are currently preparing fortrials to represent the Western Cape in Pre-toria in December. The money made at thefundraiser will cover some of the expensesfor this trip.One of the parents, David Marthinus,

says they received an overwhelming re-sponse and it swept them off their feet.“We didn’t expect such presence. People

came out in support and those that weren’tthere sent their donations. The support wasmore than what we expected. We are gladthat people came out to support us and tomake sure that our kids succeed, because

they put in a lot of hours to make sure thatthey excel in what they do. The money willgo a longway in helping.Wewon’t stop nowbecause there are a lot of other competi-tions, so we will continue to host suchevents,” he says.

CostlyAnother parent, Tracey Payne, also says

the event was a success. They are glad thatwhat they gotwill help themprepare for thenext tournament.“We had to do everything out of our pock-

ets and it was so costly. We have to bookflights, accommodation and cars when theygo out of the province. The event was sucha success and it will help us prepare for ourchildren’s next event.“This is what they love, so we have to do

everything within our power to supportthem. Everything helps, so we are gratefulfor the people that came out to help,” saysPayne.Marthinus adds that they are proud of the

four children as they put in effort and dedi-cation.“We are exceptionally proud of them. At

that age, they can even do open-water swim-ming where they have to put in long hours.Their dedication is commendable and hav-ing to find balance between their schoolwork and swimming is just adorable. Whatwe have to do now as parents is to supportthem. We stand behind them fully becausethey are an example to everyone. They haveopportunities thatwenever had,” saysMar-thinus.The parents are already looking forward

to another fundraising event. Those whowant to attend the fundraiser or donate tohelp can contact Marthinus on 076 406 3458or Payne on 074 976 8019.

Swimmer Camrin Elliot (12) dances with his mother Rene Elliot at the dinner dance held toraise funds for his and other children’s swimming participation.

Repairs to the tune of R1.5m along Chap-pies are progressing steadily.The provincial department of transport

and public works has said good progressis being made in repairing infrastructureon Chapman’s Peak Drive after the wild-fires in March. All repairs are expectedto be completed by the end of the year.Road signs and electrical infrastructure

have been repaired or replaced. Fibre-op-tic cables at most of the look-out areashave been replaced, with some work stillbeing done at the Noordhoek end.

The weather station system at the No-ordhoek look-out area has been replaced,commissionedand tested.The entire secu-rity camera system has been replaced andsix of the seven cameras are workingagain.The irrigation system at the toll plaza

has been restored, but the plaza board-walk still needs repairs.Current repairs have no impact on the

flow of traffic. However, motorists shouldbe aware that when it rains in winter theroad will be closed for safety.

One of South Africa’s iconic couples, Archibishop Des-mond Tutu and his wife Leah, last week celebrated their60th wedding anniversary by renewing their vows.In a society plagued by high divorce rates, making it

to 60 years of wedded bliss is nomean feat, which is exact-lywhy it is so important to have such positive rolemodelswhen it comes to marriage.In fact, according to statistics released by StatsSA in

December, nearly half of marriages that end in divorcelast less than 10 years.In our consumer-driven culture, fuelled by instant grat-

ification, “fixing things” is not an idea that comes natu-rally to many people. Coupled with a high dose of over-the-top romance in themedia,manyyoung couples expectmarriage to be like something out of a Nicholas Sparksnovel.Most couples who have been married for a long time

will tell you that their secret is compromise and patience.The reality is that good relationships don’t just happen,theydevelop over time. There’s a fair amount ofwork thatgoes into keeping romance alive.Another “marriage secret” you’ll oftenhear is:A couple

that laughs together stays together. It’s the laughter thathelps keep a couple connected and “in tune” despite thestresses of daily life.We owe it to future generations towork on our relation-

ships. Instead of giving up show them that true romanceis about companionship and not just whirlwind romanceand to teach them the value of happiness that comes fromfamily stability.When previously asked her secret to staying in love for

so many years, Leah Tutu reportedly said: “There is nomagic to making marriage work. A marriage is nevermade in heaven‚ you make it what it is. If you love a per-son‚ it’s simply not enough. Youmust meet halfway‚ giveand take‚ for the rest of your lives”.

Don’t allow crime to ruleIn a recent media report the InteriorMinister of Italy denounced the homagethat arose in Oppido Mamertina, aCalabrian town and mafia stronghold. Aparade held in the town included theclergy, the mayor and high profilefamilies carrying a statue of the Madon-na. The walk took a detour to honour alocal mafia don. This event arose afterPope Francis excommunicated membersof the mafia. The incident validates thedeep connections criminals have withstate structures and the church in Italy.Criminality around the courts of Cape

Town is a warning that should becrushed instantly. Criminals that ap-peared in court, now have followers thatescort them. The fans include preachers;they display placards, stating the inno-cents of the criminal.It is a sad truth that we live in a sick

society. The fact that children andinnocent people are killed by savagesregularly near schools and playgroundsis an outrage. That murder can occur

near a magistrates’ court confirms thedeep contempt that criminals have forlaw and order.We cannot have a situation comparable

to Italy where the political and religiousleaders of a town and perhaps a nationare scared of criminals. Those who haveno respect for the sanctity of the courtsof law and the purity of public spacesmust be removed permanently fromsociety.Our society should not spend limited

tax monies on the rehabilitation orwell-being of criminals. We do not wantinsight into their criminality, we wantthem gone. We need tax and ratepayersmoney to build houses and schools andparks.In the words of the wise, those in

governance, better listen. If crime is notmanaged, soon, peaceful people willresort to required action to protectthemselves and their families.

Whowill benefit from a grand prix in CT?Formula 1 set to come to Cape Town in2016? Will we see an F1 Grand Prix tearup the Mother City’s tarmac in the nearfuture?It happened back in 2013 and now it’s

happening again: rumours that Formu-la 1 may be returning to South Africaare speeding along the grapevine fasterthan Sebastian Vettel in a Ferrari, andthis time around it’s speculated that the

chosen year will be 2016 and that thechosen location just might be ourbeloved city of Cape Town’s AtlanticSeaboard.It will not benefit the so called col-

oureds of Cape Town. Who will itbenefit, who will it enrich and whosefunds will be used?

Parents should become cyber savvyWith the school holidays in full swing, Iappeal to parents to familiarise them-selves with the various social medianetworks that their children use, to helpkeep them safe from online predators.Each social media platform has unique

risks and many children don’t realise thedangers.They underestimate how easily accessi-

ble their information is and forget thatothers are watching their online activity.Talk to your children about the dangersof social media.Social media can be a wonderful tool,

but we need to keep a close eye on itsusage in order to keep our children safe.

ALDERMAN JP SMITHMayco member for safety and security

Act now to preventfuture ‘shedding’We have seen and we are still experienc-ing the utter chaotic demoralising effectload shedding by Eskom has had on ourpersonal and economic lives.All this is due to the fact that foresight

in maintenance and proper managementskills were and are not in place. Thisplague must teach us a lesson and wemust learn as a country that suchshortcomings must never happen again,because it affects the lives of us, thecitizen, in a negative way.We have to look at our water supply

now and ensure that the wells do not dryup. We have to put measures in placenow to ensure that we do not have watershedding. We have to look at our currentmaintenance capabilities and even go sofar as to think of investing in waterdesalination. Our politicians must placethis item on the agenda now for safe-guarding the present and supplyingfuture water resources to man and beast.The other aspect we must deal with nowis the supply and safeguarding of ourfood. No person or animal can survivewithout food so therefore we must putmeasures and plans in place now toensure a continuous, constant cheapsupply of food for now and for the future.The politicians and all role-players haveto amend current legislation in relationto food production in rural and cityareas. The monopoly on food productionby a few for profit has to end andmeasures and plans have to be imple-mented now so that food can always beafforded a place on the table. We canonly imagine what food shedding willlead to and here one has to just peepback at one of the reasons we hadFrench and Russian revolutions.South Africa, to prevent all manners of

future shedding, we as citizens now haveto be vocal and tangible in our efforts toget those we voted in to implementmeasures and to appoint the correctpersons in the various life-giving projectsor we will have such misery it will beunimaginable to describe or to experi-ence.

The South African nationaldarts championship is under-way in Johannesburg until its

conclusion on Friday.The first national champion-

ships were held in Cape Town in1993, which served as the platformfor Darts South Africa (DSA) to beformed through the unification ofall the darting districts and associ-ations in South Africa.

TheWesternCape is representedby four affiliated districts whichform the federation: Cape Town,West Coast, Cape Winelands andEden.

Cape Town Darts is made up ofnine associations, including two-time defending inter-districtchampion Peninsula Darts Associ-ation (PDA).

The other associations are: Ath-lone, Mitchell’s Plain, NorthernSuburbs, Ocean View, South Pen-insula, Southern Suburbs, Sti-

kland and the Western ProvinceDarts Association.

The DSA tournament formatconsists of an inter-regional andinter-district four-a-side competi-tion in which players compete inboth doubles and singles play. Theinter-district competition has sev-en divisions.

Peninsula will be leading thecharge of the Cape Town teams inthe inter-district competition,where they will be chasing an un-precedented third title in a row.

They are unbeaten for the pasttwo years, having not lost a matchat thenational championship since2013.

TheWesternCapewomen’s teamtook national honours in the inter-regional competition last year,while the men’s team finished asthe runners-up in their division.

Peter Bowers, manager of thePDA men’s team, is confident thatthe team is ready to defend its na-tional title. Frank Avenant, LesleyBeukes, Jason Erasmus, Elroy

Dirks, Jason Hendricks, FranklynMiller, Sean Shaw andAshwin Ad-ams will be representing PDA atthis year’s tournament.

Avenant will also compete in theInternational World Darts tourna-ment inTurkey inOctober and rep-resent South Africa there.

Warren Hansen, Cape TownDarts’s transformation official andPDA’s vice-chairperson, echoesBowers’ optimism.

“The only challenger to thethrone is the Western ProvinceDarts Association.

“Western Province has four

players in the Western Cape DartsFederation team as well.”

Hansen also highlights top play-ers in the Cape Town district whocouldmakean impact in this year’sinter-district tournament: “Play-ers who are performing very welland are on top of their game in theregion are Wesley Daries andMar-thinus Grobelaar.

“These two gentlemen were thetwo top performers at the WesternCape Darts Federation trials. Bothplayers are from Cape Town Dartsandwill be representing theWPDAin the inter-district competition.

“The women who are perform-ing very well are Yolanda van Roo-yen from Cape Town Darts, whowill also be representing SouthernSuburbs Darts Association at thenational darts tournament, andMaxi Keet of the Cape Winelandsregion in Paarl,” he says.

Van Rooyen, along with youthplayer Tayla Carolissen, will bejoining Avenant in Turkey as theCape Town locals fly the flag forSouth Africa.

The next Darts South Africacompetition will be hosted inBloemfontein next year.
