CHILD TRAFFICKING: NEW RULE FROM DEPARTMENT OF HOME AFFAIRS

Securing future generationsIn an effort to reduce child trafficking in

South Africa, the Department of HomeAf-fairs has issued a newandunique require-

ment that will come into effect on Wednes-day 1 October.

In a press release, the Department ofHome Affairs revealed children under theage of 18 will be required to produce an una-bridged birth certificate in addition to apassportwhenentering ordeparting or tran-siting South Africa.

The Amendment Acts and the new regula-tions came into effect on 26 May. The newregulation was initially going to be in effectas of 1 July. However the Department ofHome Affairs has provided a grace period toallow children to travel with parents orguardians without an unabridged birth cer-tificate until the end of September.

This means that families will be able totravel with children even for the comingschool holidays as some would have madethe necessary arrangements ahead of thenew regulation commencing.

Thedepartment urges citizens and foreignnationals to heed the call to apply for una-bridged birth certificates for children. Anunabridged birth certificate of the child re-flecting the particulars of the parents is re-quired in terms of the Immigration Regula-tion 6 (12)(a) for children travellingwith par-ents.

This new requirement must be adhered toregardless of the nationality, whether thechild is travelling with parents, with otheradults or unaccompanied.

June Crawford, CEO of the Board of Air-line Representatives SA (Barsa), says SouthAfrica will be the only country in the worldmandating this for travellers by air and, asa result, will cause “mass confusion and dis-

ruption” to tourists andair travellers global-ly.

“Air travellers and travel agents in SouthAfrica and overseas just don’t know aboutthis requirement. Why would they? A pass-port is the globally recognised travel docu-ment,” she says. Crawford says from 1 Julyairlines will be “forced” to refuse travel tofamilies not in possession of these docu-ments and as a result will cause disruptionto travel plans, financial impact on serviceproviders and reputational damage forSouth Africa is inevitable. “The policy tim-ing could not be worse as South Africa pre-

pares to welcome tourists over the peak Eu-ropean school holiday travel season.”

The Department of Home Affairs statesthat the purpose of the unabridged birth cer-tificate requirement is to create an addition-al verification to deter child trafficking andwhile the goal is well-meaning, the unin-tended consequences of the resulting confu-sion is significant.

The home affairs department started issu-ing unabridged birth certificates for new-borns from 4 March 2013, on the spot, at nocost. This followed the department’s reviewof theBirthandDeathAct (1992) and theCiti-

zenship Act (1995) which culminated in theSouth African Citizenship Amendment Act2010.

The unabridged birth certificate is moresecure and reliable with added informationas it contains particulars of both parents,where possible, and their ID numbers andtherefore supports the drive to secure theNational Population Register so that all peo-ple in the country are and feel safe.

The application can be made at any homeaffairs office, by the parents (guardian), whoshould take along their identity documentsand the child’s abridged certificate.

These changes will also promote the de-partment’s main function of issuing secure,credible and accurate birth certificates aswell as identity documents to all citizens.

Matipa Mwamuka, counter traffickingproject coordinator for NPO Activists Net-working against the Exploitation of Chil-dren, agrees with the protection measure.“Although we have not looked at the newregulations thoroughly, we do welcome it.This will especially assist with childrentravelling from war torn countries makingit easier to track them,” she says.

This will also assist in tracking childrenin cases where their parents are separatedand the child travels with one parent, Mwa-mukaadds. “Wealsoneed to seewhichbarri-ers exist. Wewant to know how easily acces-sible this document is to parents and guardi-ans, especially those living in remote areas,”she says.

Mwamuka further says the home affairsdepartment needs to look beyond the surfaceof this newregulation. “Weask that a systembe put in place to monitor the application,process and accessibility of this document.V For more information visit www.dha.gov.za.

NEW REGULATION: The Department of Home Affairs has encouraged parents and guardians to applyat any of their nearest home affairs offices for unabridged birth certificates for their children.

Plans to upgrade the Kalk Bay tidalpools and to repair the Glencairn tidalpool have been delayed.

This was revealed by Byron Kemp, an of-ficial from the City of Cape Town’s sportsand recreation department last week.

Speaking during the South PeninsulaSubcouncil meeting last week, Kemp saidthe planned upgrade which included re-moving the wall between the two pools inKalk Bay were subject to an EnvironmentalImpact Assessment (EIA).

This, he said, was due to the close proxim-ity of the pools to the ocean.

Tony Trimmel, chairperson of the KalkBay/St James Residents’ and Ratepayers’Association (KBSJRRA), says residents areconcerned about the delays after beingpromised the upgrade would commence lastyear.

He explains the association suggestedseveral improvements to make the pools us-er-friendly.

“There has been no progress and we wantto know what the City plans to do,” saysTrimmel.

South Peninsula Subcouncil chairpersonFelicity Purchase says after a request fromthe association and in consultation with of-ficials it was decided due to the shallow na-ture of the long pool the wall should be re-moved.

“This would also allow for actual swim-ming by those who use it as a means of keep-ing fit. It would be a reasonable size,” shesays.

During the meeting councillors ques-tioned the progress.

Kemp said a new coastal coordinator hadbeen appointed and was devising a tidalpool management plan to assist with up-grades and repairs.

Chuckles could be heard in the chamberwhen Kalk Bay ward councillor Dave D’Al-ton asked whether the upgrade would hap-pen “before he dies”.

The wall at the Glencairn tidal pool wasdamaged by waves and is also in need of re-pairs.

Commenting on the repairs ward council-

lor Simon Liell-Cock said while fundingwas available, they were informed an EIAwas needed for the pathway.

“In that case the EIA had nothing to dowith the pool; only the pathway, but repairwork has still not been carried out,” he said.

Councillors now plan to meet with thenew coordinator to discuss the tidal pools.V Have you experienced problems while using the Kalk Bay and Glencairn tidal pools? Starting with theword “Post”, SMS your thoughts to 32516. SMSes costR1.

Five applications by liquor outlets totrade on Sundays were given thethumbs down last week.

The applications from various establish-ments from Muizenberg to Simon’s Townwere refused by the South Peninsula Sub-council.Under the new Western Cape Liquor Act

establishments wishing to increase theirtrading hours or to trade on Sundays haveto apply for permission from theCity ofCapeTown.Speaking during the subcouncil meeting

last week, chairperson Felicity Purchaseasked councillors for their comments on aseries of applications.The first applicationwasmade by Simon’s

Town Bottle Store who applied to trade onSundays and to extend their trading hoursin theweek. The first applicationwas unani-mously turned down by councillors and per-mission to extend trading hours to 19:00from Monday to Saturday was granted.Ward councillor Simon Liell-Cock called

for councillors to be consistent when mak-ing decisions regarding liquor licences.The subcouncil has also denied earlier ap-

plications to trade on Sundays and grantedpermission for other establishments to tradeuntil 19:00. At the time, Purchase said thiswas to assist establishments where custom-ers arrived home after 18:00.“In many of the cases people get home

when the stores are closedwhichmeant theyoften went to illegal establishments,” shesaid.Sharki’s Koop and Loop in Ocean View

made two applications. In the report by the

City’s health department it says no com-plaintshavebeen receivedand the establish-ment was given permission to trade until19:00 during theweekanddeniedpermissionto trade on Sundays.Blue Bottle Liquors in Muizenberg and

Kalk Bay also submitted applications. In themotivation for permission to trade on Sun-days, owner John Cullinan said off-con-

sumption outlets were unable to compete inthe tourism sector by not being allowed totrade on Sundays.He said the rules regarding Sunday trade

should be the same for on-consumption andoff-consumption establishments.A Muizenberg retailer was also turned

down and only given permission to trade un-til 19:00 in the week. The final application

was made by Aroma Drop Inn which did notapply to trade on Sundays but asked for per-mission to extend trading hours in theweek.The establishment at SunnyAcres ShoppingMall was given permission to trade until19:00 in the week.V What are your thoughts on liquor trading on Sundays?

Your SMSesRestaurant in Noordhoek

. Never mind the traffic and parking con-gestion, the ambience of Noordhoek will becompromised even further. There are al-ready restaurants opposite and down theroad to the beach. Do not build another one,please.

. Noordhoek does not need another res-taurant.

. “No” to another restaurant. There areenough already. S Robinson

. Noordhoek residents, stand togetherand say “no” to a restaurant next to the com-mon. Do not give up and take a stand. Youwon before; you will win again.

. We definitely do not need another res-taurant.

. I strongly object to the restaurant or anymore commercial activity along NoordhoekMain Road. It will change the open, countryfeel which is what everyone enjoys aboutNoordhoek.

. The City of Cape Town’s approval of therestaurant is a consequence of people sup-porting other illegal commercial develop-ments in Noordhoek, such as Cape PointVineyards market, restaurant, picnics, con-certs and functions – all illegal, but ignoredby council because people support it. Theyhave set a precedent for inappropriate com-mercial development in Noordhoek. Per-haps peoplewill realisewhat they have donenow it’s in their backyard. It’s a sad day forNoordhoek.

. It is worrying that the corner of Avond-rust Circle and Chapman’s Peak Drive beconsideredas apublic venue requiringpark-ing, including tourist buses,when this inter-section is already dangerous. Noordhoekresidents approach itwith care. Traffic pass-ing through is fast and frequent, with notraffic calming in place. Noordhoek does notneed another restaurant. Environmentally,if it was approved, it would be the beginningof the end of what remains of the rural na-ture of Noordhoek. The common across the

road is a place of peaceand recreation for peopleand nature. We need topreserve the littlewehaveleft.

. The existing restau-rant causes parking prob-lems. This corner is a riskto cars entering speedingtraffic on Chapman’sPeakDrive, plus it will de-stroy the peaceful com-mon.Ben andMary Turok

. Why another restau-rant and in that specificlocation? Porcupine,toads, buck, gennets andother creatures are beingthreatened in one of thefew remaining ruralneighbourhoods. Thereare plenty other moresuitable locations – ratherthan this postage stampsize piece of land.

. “No” to the proposednew restaurant in Noord-hoek. We do not needmore traffic or noise.

. I am furious that an-other restaurant will bebuilt. There are five res-taurants within 600m from the proposedsite. Avondrust is a very narrow road. Whymust I be inconvenienced in my travels toand from my home by the overflow of carsparking in Avondrust Road, never mind thefact that now there has to be parking for bus-es aswell? Themayor and council have com-pletely ignored the very valid objectionssent through. I wonder who I am going tovote for in the future, as theDA totally disre-garded its voters’ valid opposition to the re-zoning. Christine Miller

. We definitely do not need another res-taurant in Noordhoek, especially sincemostof the nine restaurants that already exist arehardly supported – especially in winter.Over and above that, this particular restau-rant will be the start of the destruction ofNoordhoek’s exquisite rural atmosphere. Atleast the other nine restaurants blend inwith their surroundings.

. I live in Noordhoek and do not want an-other restaurant here. It’s a rural area andwill loose what makes it special for localsand tourists with more development.

. The proposed building of this restau-rant is a disgrace. Give the residents a voiceand the authorities don’t listen. Buildingthis restaurant sets a bad developmentalprecedence for the area – one that is endan-gered in kind and beauty.

. What a farce of democracy and stink ofcorruption. It just proves residents’ will andopinion mean nothing and cash is king.

. How sad that this restaurant might goahead – perhaps all the adults involved inthis decision should ask our children’s opin-ion and sit downwith them towatch or readThe Lorax by Dr Seuss?

. “No” to the restaurant. KeepNoordhoekrural.

. No, Noordhoek has nine restaurantswith varied menus and costs within 2km ofthis site and loads of choicewithin 5km.Thisis about opportunistic commercial develop-ment,withnogain for tourismor jobs.Thosearguments are fallacious, faulty, mislead-

ing, and the City is falling for it. Shame! Pat-ty Fennell

. I say “no” to the restaurant. KeepNoordhoek Common rural. Jill Tiffin

. No, there are already too many restau-rants. There should be no more commercialactivities in Noordhoek.

. The 100-seater restaurant in Noordhoekis the worst thing that could happen – thevery worst.

. Noordhoek does not need another res-taurant. Parking is already a big issue at allthe other restaurants.

. Regarding the Noordhoek restaurant: Iwalk here often and know the site well. Mypersonal opinion is that it will see a high ac-cident rate and a frustration to the residentswith regard to traffic. This is a quiet semi-ru-ral residential suburb. Should residents nothave a vote on how their neighbourhood de-velops? Jeannot

. More cars and buses won’t only makegetting out of Avondrust Circle impossible,we also don’t need another restaurant in thisarea. Stop spoiling Noordhoek.

. A definite “no” to the approval of a res-taurant near Noordhoek Common.

. It’s a good idea to have another restau-rant – jobs will be created and mouths willbe fed.

. No more restaurants are needed, butsadly money can bypass any objections.Shameful behaviour!!

. Noordhoek definitely does not need an-other restaurant, as there are already atleast six. The road is too narrow to take anymore traffic and the increase in traffic onChapman’s Peak would be damaging. Thisis a charming rural area and a horse-lovers’paradise. Please do not wreck any more ofour beautiful Cape.

. Another restaurant for Noordhoek willbe great. Comeon residents, youhave got ridof a fabulous parking space at the Farm Vil-lage and part of the internationally re-nowned Hoerikwagga Trail, too. Stop tryingto control progress, it smacks of entitlement.

. The last thing Noordhoek needs is an-other restaurant, especially so close to allthe others. This is appalling and compromis-es both the Common, Avondrust Circle andthe scenic drive. This is council land and fin-gers point to De Lille. I, for one, will not bevotingDAnext time if this goes ahead.DavidRattle

. No, we do not need another restaurantin Noordhoek. I travel that road a coupletimes a day, as I live off Beach Road and itis a very tricky intersection. Besides, Imoved toNoordhoek for the country feel.Wehave sufficient and varied restaurants inand around Noordhoek. Loraine Graham

. The proposed new Noordhoek restau-rant is absurd, unnatural and unnecessary.

. “No” to another restaurant in Noord-hoek. It is not needed. Let’s try [to] keep abit of nature.

. It’s very sad that after so many objec-tions and the fact that the local roads cannothandle more large tourist buses, that theMayoral Committee approved the new res-taurant application. I will certainly not bevoting DA any more.

General. Pick n Pay’s donation of R5000 to Masi

is laughable! This is about a quarter of onetill’s turnover on a quiet day.

. Wecry for government to deliver servic-es such as education, then we moan andwant to be “consulted” when they try to doso on government land. We voted for themtomake decisions for the greater good, thus,in my opinion, we’ve already been consult-ed.

. Park further, either side [of] Kalk Bayand walk. Residents can start a lift businessor open their properties for paid parking.

. An independent drug investigationteam needs to investigate [if there is police]involvement in drug dealing in Ocean View.

. I fully support the MOU. OsborneV Share your thoughts. Starting with the word “Post”,SMS your comments to 32516. SMSes cost R1.

Roads closedby mudslideMONIQUE DUVAL

@monique_duval

Traffic along Main Road just outsideMurdoch Valley and Boyes Drive inKalk Bay was brought to a grinding

halt last week after mud- and rockslides.According to a report fromTraffic Servic-

es spokesperson Richard Coleman, themudslide on Boyes Drive occurred onThursday 19 June.The roadways between Boyes Drive and

Clairvaux Road, as well as Boyes and OldBoyes have been closed to vehicular and pe-destrian traffic.“There is no collateral damage and no in-

jurieswere reported. It is suspected that themudslides and rockfalls were caused by theheavy rains over the past few days,” hesays.Clean-up operations have begun and the

City of Cape Town’s roads and stormwaterdepartment is carrying out emergency re-pair work and reinforcing the mountainslopes.

Roadworks are expected to be completedlater this week.South Peninsula Subcouncil chairperson

Felicity Purchase says the mudslide on themountain slope at Miller’s Point wascaused by a burst water pipe.She says workers were on site over the

weekend and the road had been opened.“Stop and go sections will be implemen-

ted where necessary,” she says.Purchase explains work being carried

out is only remedial and the actual repairswill only commence in the next 15 months.“Motorists are urged to practise caution

during this time,” she adds.In addition, road works between Atlantic

Road and Casa Labia in Muizenberg arescheduled to commence shortly. This ispart of Phase 3 of the rehabilitation pro-gramme which will see the introduction ofstop and go sections along to the road.“Lots of congestionwill occur during this

period especially since Boyes Drive is cur-rently closed.Weaskmotorists tobepatientand practise caution,” Purchase says.

Steps for non-paymentThe reality of not being able to serv-

ice your bond is frightening andpotentially becomes very danger-

ous for the credit records of home own-ers.But before you throw in the towel

completely and physically take yourfront door keys to the bank manager tosay he will have to take your home be-cause you cannot afford it any longer,make an appointment to see him or con-tact him telephonically to discuss withhim whether the bank is willing to re-negotiate the terms of your repaymentsand to find out who the right people areto speak to.The bank is not in the business of re-

possessing houses. Neither is the bankin the business of blacklisting its valuedclients. Although the banks do not toler-ate non-payment of credit agreementsand theyhave the resources to take legalaction when you default, they are alsothere to assist you in solving a problemwhen it comes to your debt.After all, thebank is in the business to ultimatelymake a profit for its shareholders. It isa very costly exercise to take legal ac-tion against clients in terms of time andmoney and the banks could lose moneyon repossessed properties as well.The banks procedure in taking action

against you:Each bank has a differentmethod and

different departments with differentnames, using different terminology butin general they all use a similar proce-dure when taking action against you inorder for you to rectify your debt liabili-ties.They all have what could be called a

Collections and Recoveries Departmentand a Customer Debt Managing Depart-ment or Voluntary Restructuring orLoan Modification or Moratorium De-partment.Generally, if you are in arrears of be-

tween 1-6 months in your payments thebank will contact you and try to get acommitment from you to make the pay-ments. If this commitment is still nothonoured three times in a row, it willbe handed to another departmentwhereyou will be given ±30 days to rectify theproblem. After this, if the problem stillpersists, the bank will start legal pro-ceedings.Important tips for approaching your

bank:. Do not wait too long before acting

on the problem. You should contactyour bank as soon as you see the prob-lem on the horizon.

. Keep in mind that the person whois making the decision on whether tohelpyouornot is alsohumanandproba-bly feeling the crunch from the risinginterest rates and will probably do eve-rything in his power to try to help you.

. Your frustration, fear and emotionsmay be very high at the time of commu-nicating with your bank. You must re-member that it is not the bank’s faultthat you cannot afford to pay your debt.After all, you should have made yourcalculations and taken into account theidea that interest rates may rise. Avoidbeinghostile to theperson trying tohelpyou find a solution.V For more information contact Dawn or Inge atEngel & Völkers Fish Hoek office on(021) 782 0008. BATTLING TO PAY YOUR BOND?

Personal touch preferredIn the age of high-tech everything – includ-ing online loan applications – it’s interest-ing to note thatmost homebuyers and sell-

ers still depend on estate agents, home loanconsultants and conveyancers to guide themthrough the actual purchase process in a se-ries of personal interactions.This is according to a statement issued by

a bond origination company.The firm says, however, this doesn’t mean

they are not increasingly aware or apprecia-tive of the benefits of technology, such as thetime they can save by searching for propertyonline, or the speed with which home loanapplications can now be processed.Says CEO Shaun Rademeyer: “It does

mean, however, that most people still preferbeing able to access expert advice face-to-face before making major financial deci-sions.”The bond origination company accounts

formore than 25%of all residentialmortgag-es being registered in the Deeds Office andis SA’s leading bond origination group.“It also suggests an increasingly relevant

role for originators as the interface betweenpotential borrowers and lenders – and espe-cially for those who can successfully com-bine ‘old fashioned’ personal service withthe speedy responses enabled by superiortechnological capabilities.”This is illustrated, he believes, by the fact

that the firm and other originators are expe-riencing amuch higher rate of growth in thevalue of home loans they are able to get ap-proved than the national rate of growth inmortgage lending as stated by the ReserveBank.“Thenational rate stood at an annual 2.9%

at the end of March and by contrast, our fig-ures show that at end-March, we hadachieved a 9% year-on-year increase in thetotal value of the loans for whichwe securedapprovals.”Rademeyer says the success of the origina-

tors is partly due to the fact that they are of-

ten able to “rescue” applications that havebeen declined by borrowers’ own banks andget them approved by a different institution.Rademeyer says: “Although in our experi-

ence themajority of home buyerswould stillprefer their lender to be the bankwithwhichthey have an existing relationship and willusually ask us to apply to this institutionfirst.

“However,webelieve it is also due in largepart to the fact that [this bond originatorcompany’s] loan consultants offer a person-alised, while highly convenient, service toeach applicant, whether they are seekingpre-approval for a bond or an actual homeloan.“Prospective borrowers tend to have a lot

of questions that they want a real person to

answer, and they are also not comfortablewith the idea of a wholly impersonal evalua-tion process in which there is no recourseif an application is rejected.“They want someone to motivate their in-

dividual application and submit it to multi-ple banks if necessary, and if theyget severalacceptances, they want help to choose theirbest loan option.”

Internship planPROPERTY24

The One Learner – One Estate Agency in-ternship programme recently launched bythe Department of Human Settlements andthe EAAB (Estate Agency Affairs Board),aims to create an internship position at eachof the estimated 10 000 estate agencies oper-ating in South Africa.

The idea is to open up the sector for youngpeople, including women and those frompreviously disadvantaged backgrounds. Ap-plicants must be below 35 years of age.

The average age of an estate agent current-ly is 58.

This is according to EAAB chairpersonProfessor Kwandiwe Kondlo, who says theprogramme will run over three years, end-

ing in March 2017 and enabling school-leav-ers and tertiary students to become one of10 000 new real estate agents.

The project will consist of a mandatoryyear-long internship during which theEAAB has committed to monitor and facili-tate each internshipposition, thereby ensur-ing that each new entrant receives valuabletheoretical and practical learning.

Rebosa (Real Estate Business Owners ofSouth Africa) chief executive Jan le Rouxsays: “Rebosa is excited by a project of thisnature as it is something the sector has been

lacking for years; it’s not an industry thathas traditionally been easily accessible bypeople without resources and this pro-gramme could make significant inroads. Re-bosa is, however, concerned about how itwill be funded as details regarding this areyet to be announced.”

One of the largest factors prohibiting theentrance of women, previously advantagedand/or young people has been the cost.When rookie agents first start working itcould take a while before they sell a proper-ty, and even if they start selling quickly it

will still take months for the transaction togo through and their commission to be paid.As such, they need the funds to keep them-selves going for the first six to nine months.This necessitates some form of sponsorshipwhichbothnewentrants andestate agenciesstruggle to obtain.

Hannes Mouton, CEO of Services Seta,says its board had committed to the pro-gramme and was to have determined thefunding and disbursement mechanisms at ameeting last month.

This has, however, not happened.LeRouxsays: “Wesupport this project and

will do what we can to see it come to fruition.It is sad that this project was mooted in Octo-ber [and] launched this May, but [that thereare] no details regarding funding.”

The little ones dig DanniANDRÉ BAKKES

@andrebakkes

Although Danni CarreraBeanz knows she’s gor-geous, digging holes isher favourite activity.

Danni digs, but she hasplenty more to offer thanjust holes in the ground.She is a “therapy dog”.

And her human, EdithKriel of Jelly Beanz, is al-so a therapist.People’s Post patted

Danni and spoke to Edithrecently about the “thera-py dog” initiative by theTable View-based non-profit organisation thatgives hope to children af-fected by trauma andabuse.

“We called her Danni so a child could seeher as a boy or a girl,” says Edith. “As partof Danni’s work, children might projecttheir own issues ontoher, so they can choosewhat they want Danni to be.”

Dog daysDanni, who has been involved in playful

tug-of-war with a rope, stops briefly and tiltsher head quizzically.

“Her surname, Beanz, is self-explanatory,and hermiddle name comes from the PorcheCarerra model. Porche were our initialsponsors,” says Edith.

Danni is still undergoing obedience train-ing, but she has already left hermark on Jel-ly Beanz.

“We went to a school recently and talkedabout how dogs could be used in work, suchas police dogs. After the assembly a little girlwent to her teacher and told her about trau-ma in her own life, something she has nevertold anyone before. The girl then asked theteacher if she could go talk to Danni aboutit – and the lady who belongs to Danni. I be-came sort of insignificant, because Danni isnow the drawcard,” explains Edith.

And Danni is happy to listen to children’sfears and help them wipe away their tears.

All she asks in return is a tummy scratchand food.

“She likes food,” saysEdith.

Danni sits bolt uprightat the mention of food.

On the website your-purebredpuppy.com, theNewfoundland is de-scribed as being “calm,dignified and generallyquiet”.

They forgot to add theconditional clause “aslong as you don’t mentionfood”.

“She loves her pelletsand eats a relatively largeamount of food everyday... So we would love itif someonehelpedus spon-sor her food for a while,”says Edith.

Any mention of foodgets Danni’s full attention, possibly also be-cause food is used as an effective means tomotivate her, as it is in most dog training.

But her long lustrous coat also needs at-tention.

Edith says Danni is groomed twice amonth at a pet parlour.

This is all to keep Danni looking good forthe important work she has to do. “Themostimportant aspect is, of course, the roleDanniwill be playing at Jelly Beanz.

If a child sees Danni make a mistake thenit’s a very useful place to begin a conversa-tion about how we all make mistakes, howwe manage it and how people respond to it.

“Also, just having an animal there for thechildren is comforting. Danni is my co-ther-apist,” elaborates Edith.V If anyone can sponsor food for Danni Carrera Beanzthey can contact Jelly Beanz on (021) 556 2456 oremail edith at [email protected].

WOOF: Danni is not a bear, but a dog– and a therapy dog at that!

Email scam alertDESIREÉ RORKE

@dezzierorke

With the tax return filing date loomingcloser, countless taxpayers have fallen vic-tim to an elaborate scam.

Promising a believable windfall, it is bynomeans only the ignorantwhoare duped.

Unsuspecting taxpayers receive anemail from “SARS eFiling Alert”, inform-ing them they have received a tax creditpayment into their bank accounts by theSouth African Revenue Service E-filing.

This sum could range from anythingfrom R2000 to R8000, making it in range ofthe average annual tax return payout.

The person is then prompted to click ona link to “confirm online epayment”, andit is on this link where the victim is verycleverly deceived to give out their bankingdetails.

Once this is done, the scammers areequipped with the necessary informationto steal funds from your account at anytime.

[Sars) is aware of this scam and is cur-rently investigating it.

They warns taxpayers to be extra vigi-lant.

“Many taxpayers have already beenscammed and countless others have tele-phoned to enquire about this email,” saysa spokesperson at Sars whowarns tax pay-ers not to respond to this email.

“The particular email address does notbelong tous andSarswill never prompt an-yone, even e-filers, to provide banking de-tails. If a payment is to be made by us, wewill automatically deposit it into yourbank account,” he says.

“In addition, tax return filing date onlyopens on Tuesday 1 July, and no returnpayouts could have been made yet.”

Sars urges all taxpayers to rather con-tact them at their contact centre on0800 007 277, if they should be unsure aboutany Sars-related payments.

Mocké to tackle Berg MarathonAnother Far South local has come into

contention as a potential Berg RiverCanoeMarathon champion after con-

firming his entry for the race.Internationally renowned surfski talent

Jasper Mocké, of Fish Hoek Surf Lifesav-ing and Peninsula Canoe clubs, confirmedhis participation less than a week after fel-low Peninsula stalwart and former BergwinnerGraemeSolomon indicatedhis par-ticipation pending conditions.Mocké proved himself a serious contend-

erwhen he recentlywon the Swartland Ca-noeMarathon against a fieldwhich includ-ed most of the major Berg title contenders.However, the vastly experienced star is

cautious in predicting his chances of be-coming the first paddler in modern timesto clinch victory in his debut Berg outing.“To go in expecting to win the Berg the

first time I race it, would be too far,” hesays.“If I can be on the podium at the end of

the four days, I’ll be very happy. Havingsaid that though, I always line-up at a racewithmy eye onwinning and I will definite-ly give it my all.“If you have the chance to be up there

in the top three during the race, thenyou’re almost certainly going to have thechance of winning it too.”The star’s prolonged delay inmaking his

maiden Berg appearance came about fromhis packed surfski calendar and recent in-ternational travels.He is looking forward to finally making

his debut.The ocean paddling star’s presence at in-

ternational surfski events almost year-round has become accepted as the norm bymany in the paddling fraternity, but a re-cent dabbling in flat-water marathons –

which yielded a K2 bronze medal at the2012 Canoe Marathon World Champion-ships in Rome – marked the beginning ofa broadening of the Fish Hoek ace’s hori-zons.Mocké continued to casthis paddlingdis-

cipline net even wider at the beginning ofthe year, when he and fellow internationalpaddling sensation Hank McGregor pow-ered to a memorable second place finish inthe 2014DusiCanoeMarathon.On thebackof his recent Swartland victory, Mockémakes no secrets of his desire to do wellin this year’s 240km, four-day long racefrom Paarl to Velddrif.While believing his regular winter dis-

tance training matches his Berg prepara-tion needs, the 29-year-old’s inexperienceon the Berg River is an aspect he will haveto carefully factor into his race tactics if heis tomakehis podiumaspirations a reality.“I haven’t had to change my training

much at all. I’ve always looked to get mymileage up at this time of the year, aheadof a really busy surfski schedule in the sec-ond half of the year, so I’ve pretty muchbeen doing the same type of training as Iwould need in preparing for Berg,” Mockésays.“I won’t try to be a hero during Berg

though. I’ll be very content just tucking inbehind some of the other guys, followingthem down and then seeing how things gofrom there.”Mocké will also hope to bring his surfski

form to river racing, after winning the sin-gle and double South African Surfski titlesat the weekend.The Berg River Canoe Marathon starts

in Paarl onWednesday 16 July and ends atVelddrif on Saturday 19 July.V For further details visit www.berg.org.za.

Bay braces for Hammies onslaughtLIAM MOSES

@LiamCPT

False BayRFChave surged into CommunityCup contention after racking up their sev-enth win of the season on Saturday.The Bay are third on the Super League A

table, behind second-placed UCT and first-placed Hamiltons, who will rival the Con-stantia side in their hunt to finish as thehighest placed non-university club and earna place in the Community Cup.But despite their results and healthy posi-

tion on the table, Bay head coach Jono vander Walt says its too early to start thinkingabout the Community Cup.“We are on four-week break from play.We

will take twoweeks off training and two pre-paring for the game against Hamiltons,” hesays.“The match will be like a test match for

us. If we can beat Hammies, maybe we willstart thinking about the Community Cup.But the coaches are not talking about thatyet. We still have five games to play and twoare against UCT and Hammies.”False Bay spent last season in Super

League B and the break from the top flightseems to have had a positive effect on theclub.Van der Walt’s charges cruised to heavy

victories against several mid-table teams intheir nine matches, including a 41-10 winagainst Helderberg last Saturday.“We have done well this season because of

continuity in playing and coaching staff,”Van der Walt says.“Last year we knew fairly early on that

Kevin Musikanth (Van der Walt’s predeces-sor) was offered the UCT coaching position,so the assistants took over the reins then.The last four or five fixtures were under thesame coaching staff.”He attributes their success to the players’

dedication.“Our team has trained very hard on and

off the field. A lot of our success has to dowith our fitness and conditioning, as well aswillingness and buy-in from the playerswhowant to play and do well.”Bay resume their campaign with a clash

against Hamiltons on Saturday 19 July, fol-lowed by matches against NNK, UWC, UCTand Bellville.The first and fourth fixtures will undoubt-

edly be the toughest for Van der Walt’s side.Both sides have played eight games, with

Hamiltons undefeated and UCT having lostjust once - against Maties.However, False Bay have the necessary

form and motivation to pull off victories inboth matches.

SOETWATER: ALLEGED DRUG DEALERS SPEAK OUT

Two sides of the tradeMONIQUE DUVAL

@monique_duval

Allegations of drug dealing byinformal traders near Soet-water have flared up.

This follows a letter by GrahamNoble of the ScarboroughCivic As-sociation to the South PeninsulaSubcouncil in which he questionswhen Law Enforcement officerswill take action against the trad-ers.Noble alleges the traders use

their goods as a front to deal drugsand are trading in contravention ofbylaws.“Closing down the illegal infor-

mal trading will also close downthe drug-dealing activities. Whatdoes Law Enforcement plan to doto shut down this activity once andfor all?” he wrote.At the subcouncil meeting last

week, councillors agreed to referthe matter to Law Enforcement.On Friday 20 June only one trad-

er could be seen on Witsand Road.ARastafarianwoman sat in a car

with a babywhile a scarf and bean-ie could be seen hung on a streetsign.Opting not to answer questions

posed by People’s Post, the womaninstead wrote down her thoughtson a piece of paper.According to her notes, thewom-

an, who asked that she not be iden-tified, says she has been tradingalong this road for the past 10 yearsand sells scarves, beanies, home-made baskets and other items to lo-cals and tourists.She explains she has had numer-

ous problems with police as shehas often been arrested for illegaltrading. She admits to having been“bust[ed] for ganja [dagga]”.“For us as Rastafarians we do

deal[s] with adults [and] not chil-dren. People buying or stoppinghere are doctors, lawyers, teachersand carpenters,” she writes.In her notes, thewoman explains

they view themselves as prophetswhoarehere toheal theneedywith“the herb”.She claims it is a risky job as

traders get arrested and theirgoods impounded.After a few minutes, the woman

speaks and names Law Enforce-

ment officers with whom she is ac-quainted. She admits to sellingdagga and when asked whether lo-cals bought from her, she respond-ed: “Why would I be here?”South Peninsula Subcouncil

chairperson Felicity Purchasesays the traders do not have per-

OCEAN VIEW: CBD PROPERTIES A SECURITY RISK

Buildings in sorry stateMONIQUE DUVAL

@monique_duval

Derelict buildings and poten-tial sewerage spills in OceanView have been propelled to

the centre stage.Hard questions over the future

plans for the Ocean View CentralBusiness District (CBD) wereraisedbyOceanViewCivicAssoci-ation vice-chairperson PatrickJoseph at the SouthPeninsula Sub-council meeting.Joseph said the buildings have

fallen into a state of disrepair andbecome a haven for criminals.He explains the buildings have

been stripped of anything seeming-ly of value, including taps and elec-trical wires.“The buildings have become a

nuisance and are a sickening eye-sore. The area has the potential tobecome a commercial zone for thecommunity,” he explains.Joseph says the expense associ-

ated with travelling to shoppingmalls was having a negative im-pact on elderly residents and thosereceiving social grants.South Peninsula Subcouncil

chairperson Felicity Purchasesaid the matter will be raised withthe City of Cape Town’s ProblemBuildings Unit as well as the Prop-erty Management Department inthe next week.Ward councillor Simon Liell-

Cock said the buildings were de-grading Ocean View and planswere underway to meet with the

owners.The buildings are owned by one

individual and a local church. Pro-portional councillor PatriciaFrancke said shewould bemeetingwith the church for a solution.Purchase said the individual

owner has died and the City hopedto leverage the outstanding ratesowed to the City to find a solution.But the estate had since cleared

the debt.Joseph asked councillors for an

assessment on the impact of a wa-ter outlet on the BokramspruitRiver. He said there were betweenfour to five outlets into the river.“The main one is along PegasusRoad and I am not sure of the envi-ronmental impact,” he said.In response Liell-Cock said it ap-

peared there was raw sewerage be-

ing pumped into the river. This, hesaid, appeared to be a result ofbackyard dwellings which do nothave proper ablution facilities or adesign flaw.City officials will now look into

the exact cause of the outflow andits impact.V What are your thoughts on Ocean View’sCBD? Starting with the word “Post”, SMSyour views to 32516. SMSes cost R1.
