The African National Congress (ANC) and African Christian Democratic Party (ACDP) were in one voice, condemning the meager amounts allocated to community safety.

That's according to opposition parties responding to the province's R67 billion budget for the 2019 financial year.The allocation - which is 0.54% of the total budget - is not enough according to the ACDP's Ferlon Christians.

"We can't blame national government all the time when it comes to police work. I think too little is done with community safety. If we don't have a stake in the community, we have a problem."You have to deal with your own social responsibilities and social networks. The crime won't diminish. You've got to look at job creation."
