ProposalDescription: 

The Magagula family made a request to the Department of Water and Sanitation to assist them in regard to the relocation of their family graves. The graves were buried by the family in the 1940/50s before the area was demarcated for Westoe dam. Unfortunately, when the dam was proposed in the late 1960s, the family were not given enough time to relocate their graves. They were given days from which they had to relocate all their belongings and soon the area was part of that which is demarcated for the dam, and subsequently filled with water. Since the 1990s, they had been requesting for the government to assist them. Their request was finally approved in 2020. Hence, this proposal.
