Dear Portfolio Committee on Human Settlements,

I have read the many questions put to the Free State Human Settlements Department related to their performance and future plan of action to be.

Allow me to put a clear picture in words related to only one area of concern and there are many that be mentioned how the Parliament is mislead with projects and contractors and blocked projects.

This information is written without prejudice and is directly linked to many serious matters involving the Municipality, HOD, MEC CoGTA, Premier and the Minister of Human Settlements.

The above is stated due to the fact that there is sinister matter linked by the Provincial Government Department Human Settlements Free State to get rid of their 2014 Govan Mbeki Award winning contractor for the Best Informal Upgrading Project in the Free State namely Quick Leap Investments.

The informal settlement is situated in Welkom Matjhabeng Free State known as Hani Park.

It should be noted that this specific housing project (6000) subsidy houses is registered with the DME and the DNA under the Kyoto Protocol Agreement related to the UNFCC to reduce our Carbon Footprint with specific implementation of alternative energy and the reduction thereof has a monetary value called Carbon Credits that will be made available after a monitoring and validation period of said project.

The selling of the Carbon Credits creates a income stream for 15 years with a Government Tax bracket of 10% for the specific project and can be applied to uplift the community at large re: a Solar Bakery can be implemented with the money allowing the community to become less dependent and service their needs in a specific manner as well as lunch box for school going children free of charge.

Please note the following as it is important information to have proper view of the matter before court as we are defending the illegal cancellation of Quick Leap Investments housing contract.

The same Ex HOD suspended and arrested (Mr Mokhesi) related to the asbestos case is the same person who took it upon himself to cancel the contract in May 2016 we are defending same until now - we will be in court from 11 March 2024 to 15 March 2024.

The Asbestos matter needed money to be paid for their self enrichment scheme at the time that they have fabricated at the time. So it was easy to make up lies to get rid of Quick Leap Investments to have his hand in the budget overlooking his mandate and the Constitution.

A short summary of the process from 2010 to 2016.

1. Quick Leap Could not sell carbon credits due to the - NONE - FUNCTIONAL SEWER SYSTEM THAT WAS INSTALLED (2010) AT THE TIME IN HANI PARK.

2. 160 Letters complaining about the NONE - FUNCTIONAL SEWER SYSTEM was ignored over the period of 6 years by the HOD.

3. Due to the NONE - FUNCTIONAL SEWER SYSTEM and it is a logical requirement to have when houses are completed to be connected to a FUNCTIONAL SEWER SYSTEM - the HOD stated Quick Leap did not sell any carbon credits and therefor he cancelled the contract.

4. Without a functional sewer system no monitoring and validation processes can be implemented for the amount (lt) of warm water going through the system to be monitored.

5. The Department decided to attack their own contract and the Land Availability Contract Quick Leap signed with the Municipality.

6. As the Municipality was responsible for the infrastructure since the LAA was signed in April 2007.

Without going into more detail the following should be taken note of only lies has been presented by the Provincial Government HS since the inception of the case as they have tried all possible fabricated lies to such a extend that they have now expose the Minister of Human Settlements and themselves as giving false Title Deeds to the beneficiaries in the Free State.

After many requests for a meeting to discuss the matter and avoid going to court as Quick Leap Investments do not have any construction discrepancies against him from the 2010 to 2016 when the contract was cancelled. The 80 letters since April 2021 to date 2023 to the HOD, MEC CoGTA, Premier and Minister bear no fruit.

The essence of the matter is now that it will give rise to such a hole full of rot - of what has been discovered during our investigation before our final day to go to court and left with no other choice to expose all that we uncovered related to our case and contract been one sided cancelled with no facts.

All letters was done in good faith to protect the Minister of Human Settlements and it came to nothing and due to the fact that Quick Leap Investments been illegally singled out as the problem their is no other manner to address the matter as to put forward what has been discovered.

A request to a meeting a still on the table to prevent the matter to go to Court on the 11 March 2024 to 15 March 2024 - the facts we have will have far more self destructing statements for the executives linked as stated.

Thanks.
