Parents now able to move children between provinces, says Zulu
Updated | By Jacaranda fm
Social Development Minister Lindiwe Zulu says children will under certain circumstances be allowed to move between provinces.
Zulu was speaking at a briefing by various ministers on the lockdown regulations in Pretoria on Wednesday.
At the start of the national lockdown, children forced to remain with the parent they were with when the lockdown began.
Zulu said there is clearly a need to move children, especially since the lockdown has been extended.
"Many of the children have to go back to the principal parent because they also have to start doing their schoolwork. Many of the children live with parents who want to start the education program until we know when schools will open."
She admitted that the government faced a barrage of complaints from parents.
Parents who are separated or divorced will be required to produce a court order, documents from an attorney or the child's birth certificate when they fetch them.
