UNSAFE: DIRECTOR-GENERAL GIVES DEADLINE OF SIX WEEKS FOR JHB OFFICE TO MOVE

- Thando Nondywana

The department of public works has six weeks to identify and approve a new temporary location for the Deeds Office following an urgent intervention by the director-general of the department of rural affairs and land reform, under whose auspices the office falls.

The intervention happened after The Citizen detailed the dire situation at the Johannesburg office, which is said to be an unsafe and unfit work environment.

The relocation comes amid ongoing infrastructure challenges that have disrupted operations at the Johannesburg office for the past two weeks.
