Western Cape Premier Lynne Brown says it's important that provincial government and the City of Cape Town work together for the benefit of all residents. This follows a meeting yesterday between herself and city mayor, Helen Zille - who belong to the ANC and DA respectively. Brown says they've decided to close all but three refugee sites by the end of August in a bid to streamline logistics.
She says other issues such as public transport and the N2 Gateway Housing Project were also discussed. "The MEC has had a meeting with minister Lindiwe Sisulu and what we are going to do is to get Whitey Jacobs to speak to the mayor in a lot more detail about the process that we got to go through. Remember there's still court cases hanging and so on. The City is not on the N2 Gateway Project but we have an agreement that the people of the city and the Western Cape are all our people and so we must make all efforts to try and unblock the processes as we go forward," Brown said. - SABC
