Human Rights Commission to inspect Limpopo health facilities

JOHANNESBURG - The South African Human Rights Commission will on Monday visit Limpopo where it will inspect public health care facilities in the province.

In a statement the SAHRC said its Chairperson, Adv. Bongani Majola, "will assess health care facilities in the province". The inspection is in line with the commission’s mandate contained in Section 184 of the Constitution, which obliges the SAHRC to promote the protection of human rights, monitor and assess the observance of human rights in South Africa.

There have been numerous complaints about services at state hospitals, where patients queue for hours. Law suits against the health department for botched procedures at these institutions are also on the rise. "As part of his visit in the province, the chairperson, will be inspecting a number of health facilities with the view of gauging the status of public health care in the province," said the statement.

SURVEILLANCE: How China’s persecuted people are paying the price for Joburg’s sense of securityOn 8 July 2019, 22 member states of the United Nations Human Rights Council petitioned China to end the ‘arbitrary’, ‘large-scale’ detention and ‘widespread surveillance’ of its religious communities. But the very surveillance tech tried and tested on China’s Muslims, Christians, Buddhists and Catholics is now being deployed en masse throughout Joburg by SA company Vumacam – for safety’s sake. And while a hot debate rages over South Africans’ privacy, persecuted people halfway around the world are truly paying the price for this technology.
