Targeted land redistribution should be considered in expropriation debate

On May 31, the ad hoc committee reviewing section 25 of the constitution requested additional time as it was not in the position to make recommendations to the National Assembly and will now be given extra time to deliberate on key issues.

From a practical point of view, one has to ask whether simply removing the 1913 date in the constitution will make any real difference? Land restitution is a rights-based form of land reform. It links a specific beneficiary to a specific piece of land. It is aimed at social justice and healing the divisions created by a historical event. In this sense, it is a vital part of the reconciliation process and is perhaps the most direct symbol of social justice.

Communities in large areas of the Western, Eastern and Northern Cape are not eligible for restitution as dispossession by colonial authorities largely occurred before 1913.
