The City of Cape Town is
proposing a limited 24hour traffic and law enforcement deployment across the
city.
In a statement the city said
crime levels and general adherence to the law continues to be of concern to the
city.
Mayoral Committee for Safety
and Security JP Smith said there is a desperate need to boost capacity of law
enforcement especially after hours.
Smith said the money will provide
both for extra staff as well as the shift allowances that are required which
will allow both traffic and law enforcement to effectively start serving the
public at night time as well.
“This will have the beneficial
effect of allowing Metro Police to concentrate on crime prevention as they are
doing law enforcement at night and the only law enforcements doing a 24hour
service” Smith added.
