Speech by the Minister of Rural Development and Land Reform, Mr G Nkwinti, (MP) closing remarks at the general meeting of the African Farmers Association of South Africa, St Georges Hotel, Gauteng "Building vibrant, equitable and sustainable rural communities" "Reversing the legacy of the 1913 Natives Land Act"
23 Oct 2012
The President of AFASA,
The Leadership of AFASA, in its entirety;
Ladies and Gentleman;
I am greatly honoured by your invitation for me to make the closing remarks at your conference.
Congratulations on a successful conference.
Let me emphasise this point, these are closing remarks not a speech. The President made the speech last night, and raised a couple of important points on land reform. We are going to study them very closely and carefully and interpret them into the implementation regime of the policies adopted by the National Policy Conference of the Ruling Party.
