Diana,

Good afternoon.

Yes, I see what you mean: It is RSA land, but you would like to know the Department (National or Provincial) that is

administering the land.

I can confirm that Portion 179 (a portion of Portion 163) of the farm Klipfontein 268 JR does not appear to be land

belonging to the Department of Rural Development and Land Reform.

Unfortunately our remote connection with the data base of the Department of Public Works is out of order at the

moment. As soon as it is up and running I will proceed to find an answer for you.

Maybe you can in the mean time forward your request to Mr Johan Pelser at the National Department of Public

It is noted that in your e-mail of 21 September, you state that this portion of land is reserved for “road /

road reserve / road camp” purposes.

‘DID’ did locate the portion of land on its “GPG Immovable Asset Register” : - However, the

GPG Asset Register does not indicate what the use / purpose of the portion of land is.

We did also check the various ‘Vesting’ data-bases that we have at our disposal, but we did not locate

this portion of property on any of the ‘Vesting’ data-bases : - Could you kindly indicate to us, based

on “what data” did you manage to establish that this portion of land is earmarked

for Provincial “roads” purposes.

Your assistance will be much appreciated.

Thanks for the details. Please note that currently the Department does not have a policy which

administers proposals such as the one at hand. We are however in the process of reviewing our

policies to cater for amongst other things long-term proposals. I will be forwarding your proposal to the

relevant committees being DID Leasing Allocation Committee(LAC) and should the matter not qualify to

be tabulated at that committee, will then pass it on to PICC (as Ester has indicated in her below mail) and

this will be through the approval of the DID-HOD.

I have copied LAC members for advise on the matter. I will make a follow up on your proposal and

subsequently revert to you with a way-forward
