The Socio-Economic Right Institute of South Africa (SERI) is taking the City of Johannesburg to court today over the removal of informal traders in parts of the city. In recent weeks, the municipality has implemented its clean-up and by-law enforcement programme as part of reclaiming the city. The initiative has also seen City officials embarking on a new registration system aimed at regulating the more than 20 000 informal traders. This involves the removal of unregistered informal traders operating without authorisation and outside designated areas. Elvis Presslin spoke to Zanele Kanya, Candidate Attorney at SERI
