Analysis on The Debate around restitution and the land claim process
Loading player...
The Debate around restitution and the land claim process has in recent months been a big public interest matter, particularly following the Concourt Ruling on Land Restitution. In light of this the District Six Working Committee has launched a public Petition for District 6 to be Proclaimed A National Heritage Site. Now my next guest is not in anyway linked to the D6 Working Committee but will be commenting on the heritage debate and whether or not there is any basis to the argument that areas such as D6 should be recognised at a part of Heritage.
