Municipal Mayors and even Provincial Premier's could face jail time if their departments fail to comply with court orders. This is in terms of a ground-breaking decision by the Constitutional Court which paves the way for state functionaries to be held personally liable for the enforcement of court orders.
Lawyers for Human Rights is running a crowdfunding campaign for stateless children.
Some vulnerable children are required to do DNA tests to get birth certificates, but it costs R1400 - R2100.
Abandoned & orphaned stateless children are required to pay R1350 to apply for a visa allowing them to go to school.
Donate any amount towards a vulnerable child’s test/visa & ensure a better future for them here:
