AFRA’s work at Ekuthuleni started in 1998. It’s now 2004, six years later, and we have to confess that we have failed. It is not possible to secure tenure at Ekuthuleni, for the purposes for which people want that security, within the current legal, technical and institutional frameworks. A small window of opportunity still exists that might allow us to reverse this judgement. That window is at the symbolic level contained in the provision for a communal general plan in the Communal Land Rights Act (CLRA), but I’ll come back to this later because small windows are hard to squeeze through without breaking walls.
