The Congress of South African Trade Unions in the Western Cape said the focus on the Youth Employment Accord will practically be given expression through the promotion of cooperatives.

Cosatu Provincial Secretary Tony Ehrenreich said the youth employment accord will demonstrate in a practical way how young people and community will benefit.

Ehrenreich said they will be taking away fishing rights commercial rights from old white communities, who got it under apartheid or in the early days of democracy.

“And those rights will be given to communities as a whole so that they can use it to uplift their whole community, this is a significant step in the respect of redressing South Africa , that sees us advancing young people at the cost of those who benefited in the apartheid and who are trying to maintain their apartheid benefits in the Western Cape through the DA’s policy,” added Ehrenreich.
