Thank you, hon Minister for that very short answer. I wish the previous Minister of Agriculture and Land Affairs were here to hear from you, Sir, that the model that the government used did not work, because time and time again we did indicate to the hon Minister in debates that the model did not work, but we were talking to a wall. Maybe sometimes a wall responds to the things that we say. But, hon Minister, it is a matter of concern that claims were gazetted in 1998, and in 11 years, as you say, we still haven't sorted out these claims.
We as the IFP support land reform because it is an important imperative that the government needs to pursue in order to redress the wrongs of the past. What I would like to know from the hon Minister is whether the hon Minister is aware that the Office of the Land Claims Commission has entered into contractual agreements with owners of land to buy their land, but they don't have the money to pay for that land? When will moneys be paid and how, so that the beneficiaries can take occupation of the land which they so richly deserve? Thank you.
