The African National Congress in the Western Cape has welcomed the agreement signed on Monday between the City of Cape Town and the United Cape Minstrels. 
The Department of Cultural Affairs and Sports has pledge R2.37 million to allow the Minstrels to run the festivities themselves. 
ANC’s Cobus Grobler said it is good that they can now organize their own activities.
Grobler said this came about due to the influence and the direct intervention by Marius Fransman who is also the chief patron of the minstrel kaapse klopse.
“We want all parties to come together in ensuring that this is a great success Grobler added.
