A violation of human rights, says Rise Mzansi on City of Cape Town's arrears policy
Rise Mzansi and communities are urging the DA-led City of Cape Town to stop deducting arrears from residents' prepaid electricity purchases for overdue payments.
Newly formed political party Rise Mzansi has urged the DA-led City of Cape Town to abolish its policy of recovering overdue payments from residents by deducting arrears from prepaid electricity purchases. On Thursday, the party held a picket outside the City's Civic Centre offices, calling for a review of its credit control and debt collection policy.
Despite implementing this debt recovery practice 10 years ago, it has caused outrage among residents who say they are already financially strained.
