Minister Bheki Cele and Premier Alan Winde were expected to sign the plan into effect but decided to hold off until consultation with their lawyers.
CAPE TOWN - After months of uncertainty, Police Minister Bheki Cele appears to be warming up to the Western Cape’s R1 billion safety plan.
Cele and Premier Alan Winde were expected to sign the plan into effect but decided to hold off until consultation with their lawyers.While the SAPS was not involved in the intervention at first, this has seemingly changed.“We agreed that we’d find mutual ground on how we’d get these things to work. Since then, our teams have been working on quite a few things.”
Winde’s safety plan will see 3,000 new police officers trained over the next three financial years and intervention from all provincial government departments.
