MEC Mashatile Must Release Documents On The Evaton Renewal Project

Evaton Renewal Project

The DA will write to Gauteng Cooperative Governance and Human Settlements MEC, Paul Mashatile, to request all documentation on projects rolled out through the Evaton Renewal Project since its inception in 2004.

12 years and R470 million later, the renewal project has achieved very little.

The initial intention of this project, to improve the township of Evaton, was commendable, however the execution and implementation over the past 12 years has been horrific.

Abused Public Funds

Despite the funds that have been poured into this project, Evaton still remains one of Gauteng’s most neglected townships.

MEC Mashatile must release all documentation and information on this project for the sake of transparency and accountability. Residents of Evaton have on numerous occasions requested the DA to investigate.

We will not stand idle whilst public funds are abused and no one is held to account.
