These were the stern words from Gauteng Premier David Makhura as he addressed his new provincial cabinet at their swearing in presided over by Judge President Dunstan Mlambo on Thursday morning.
Makhura went on to social issues that would be the core focus of his new team and these included the provision of quality healthcare for all; more, decent jobs; a better and improved education system; the continued demand for housing and land; and the eradication of poverty. “Our healthcare system services more than 30 million people a year and it is not in a healthy state. 75% of our clinics look like they are doing a good job but there are still problems, such as people being turned away or clinics closing early,” he said.
In the end the arbitrator awarded funeral costs amounting to R20 000 to those claimants whose loved ones had died, general damages for shock and psychological trauma amounting to R180 000 and constitutional damages amounting to R1 million to each claimant. “During the last term of office we launched ‘The rapid land release programme. We have many people who want to build houses for themselves but they don’t have space and we have land that is at the disposal of the government and therefore we will release that land.”
“One of the first issues we must deal with is the safety of children in schools and then deal with the racism in schools. Bullying is also one of the most important issues that I want to address first because my concern is that it is something we tend to overlook,” she said.
