7.2 Report on Meeting: Bredasdorp/Gansbaai
Tar Road: Miss Harris reported on the Gansbaai meeting
on 15 March 2006. Brian Prins explained the problems
regarding the limited skills of local labour and
the limited equipment and expertise of local contractors.
This had resulted in the construction tender for
the first phase from Bredasdorp to Elim being awarded
to a Contractor from Paarl. The database of Deloitte
& Touche who had been appointed to deal with
applications, reportedly had 7000 workers listed
of which 600 were from the Gansbaai area. Only 43
people could be traced and when assessed, only 13
qualified on the skills requirements.
The groundwork for the second construction
phase from Elim to Uilkraalsmond is now in process.
It was proposed that a project liaison committee of
2 people each from Gansbaai, Baardskeerdersbos and
Pearly Beach be formed. There would be Help Desks
in these areas to assist local people wishing to gain
employment on the second construction phase.
