Bitou workers employment hangs in the balance
Plettenberg Bay heroes’ futures hang in the balance due to financial constraints which led to the temporary, and possibly permanent, termination of contracts of 60 public safety workers. Most of these employees, who are part of the Extended Public Works Programme (EPWP), had played an instrumental role in the June Plettenberg Bay and Knysna fire disaster and some, just last week, were key roleplayers in arresting the alleged killer and rapist of a local hospice nurse and tracking down the men who allegedly brutally attacked an elderly Keurbooms Heights resident.
