Trevor Manuel Talks Housing
Still fresh after putting the spotlight on transport issues Trevor Manuel has decided to lay his skeptical gaze on housing. Now this is actually quite interesting as Manuel seems to be publicly casting doubt over the achievements of a fellow minister. I’m sure Minister of Housing Lindiwe Sisulu would have liked to have held up the estimates of close to two million houses supposedly built for the poor as an achievement but Manuel has come out pretty quickly not only casting doubt over the actual number of houses built but also asking why government spending has doubled on housing but delivery has slowed.
