RESETTLEMENT PROGRESS AND CURRENT STATUS continuedSAHRC Recommendation Current Status – September 2009 StatusTRANSPORTATION OF CHILDREN TO SCHOOL• PPL meet with the Municipality to determine whattransportation will be provided for all children of all ages inhouseholds yet to relocate and those resistant to relocation.This is not simply a municipal responsibility and AngloPlatinum must take responsibility for the long termconsequences of relocation, including the effects uponcommunities refusing to relocate. The Municipality may notbe in a position financially, or as regards capacity, to providefor such transportation. The relocation would then have theeffect of inhibiting those children’s access to education ifmunicipal resources are diverted to the new villages. AngloPlatinum should not divorce itself from these consequencesor from the responsibility of determining and implementingsustainable solutions.• Transport continues to be provided to the remainingfamilies’ children and we will do so until the end of 2009.The Company has engaged with the DOE regards thecessation of school bus transport in 2010.FurtheractionneededCONCRETE BATCH PLANT• PPL provide information to all key stakeholders indicatingthat remediation of the land is complete and its futureintended use.• The batch plant has been fully rehabilitated and the landhas been handed over to the community.20 ANGLO PLATINUM MOGALAKWENA MINE 2009
