Home Affairs Minister Leon Schreiber says his department will be doing more in this financial year to combat illegal immigration, with the help of the Department of Employment and Labour and the police.
CAPE TOWN - The clampdown on illegal immigration is set to intensify with new Home Affairs Minister Leon Schreiber promising more inspections across all sectors, with the aim of deporting the illegally employed.
The underfunding of the Border Management Authority was a key issue raised by several parties in Parliament on Monday during a debate on the budget of the Home Affairs Department. "Home Affairs will increase the number of inspections at restaurants, spaza shops, farms and mines by over 50%," Schreiber said.
