The Centre represented a Cape Town woman who could not access a subsidy as the City’s policy stipulates that the applicant be a married male or a single woman who’s a breadwinner or has dependents residing with her. The Court ordered the City to update its records to reflect the husband and wife as equal beneficiaries. The case has been on the court roll for about 20 years.Director of the WLC, Seeham Sammai, says they successfully argued in court that the policy discriminated against women.

Mayoral Committee Member for Human Settlements, Malusi Booi, says it’s an old policy that no longer applies.
