Show Notes
Gautengs Department of Social Development grapples with a severe staff shortage, leaving vulnerable children, abuse victims, and struggling families without essential support services. Only a fraction of police stations have access to government-funded social services, with many stations lacking any social workers at all. The Democratic Alliance criticizes the provincial government for neglecting promises to deploy more workers, as the fifteen percent vacancy rate among over five thousand employees hinders aid for gender-based violence victims.
