In restitution, the judges decide who should get what land. That is correct for restitution, but it is completely incorrect for general redistribution of land. Decisions on redistribution must be made on policy grounds by people who are politically accountable, and not by judges. The land claims process is complicated, because it involves conflicting claims to the same land. That is why there is commission to investigate claim.
Evidence has to be collected, and the case has to be taken to court.
We don't need to go through those processes for broad redistribution actions. Redistribution can be much simpler, and much quicker. If we try tod everything through restitution, the restitution process will collapse because of the huge number of claims. Then it will be able to assist anyone effectively. We have always said that we must have restitution and redistribution.
