South Africa will re-launch a claims process that will allow families that were removed from their land under apartheid rule to apply for compensation announced the presidency on Monday.
“The Act now provides for the re-opening of the lodgement of land claims by those who missed the 31 December 1998 deadline,” a presidency statement said.
The law builds on a process that previously saw the examination for 80.000 requests for compensation which expired before all those that were driven from their land could make a claim, reports Agence France Presse.
