And provide relevant training and implementation monitoring to uphold the highest standards for all children.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Solomon, organisations must be allowed to work more closely with the commissioner\u2019s office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cChildren\u2019s organisations must get involved in assessing the work, achievements, and impact of the outgoing Commissioner, identify challenges, and work to ensure that the independence and powers of the Commissioner are secured.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lucinda Evans, founder of Philisa Abafazi Bethu, a non-profit organisation (NPO) working with abused women and vulnerable children in Lavender Hill, said she would have wanted to see more action from the commissioner during her tenure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhat we thought we would get from the commissioner never happened. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI would\u2019ve wanted to see the commissioner\u2019s voice behind the safe relinquishing of babies savers. That there be an addendum to the Children\u2019s Act in terms of that we legalise the save the safe relinquishing of babies in baby savers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI would have wanted her to be a bit more present when it came to these big atrocities when children were shot and killed.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Evans said she hopes the new commissioner would be more vocal and implement policies in the best interest of children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-challenging\">Challenging<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Reflecting on her first term as the Children\u2019s Commissioner, Nomdo described the past four years of institution-building, as challenging, but added that she is grateful for the commitment of the province towards the office of the Commissioner for Children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When Nomdo appeared before the Standing Committee on the Premier and Constitutional Matters in the provincial legislature in August this year, she updated the committee on matters concerning the institution. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nomdo said in a press statement that despite being established for four years, the institution continues to grapple with only two permanent employees. \u201cThree funded posts are vacant due to protracted recruitment processes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis lack of personnel impedes the Children\u2019s Commissioner\u2019s ability to fully discharge her duties as outlined in the Western Cape Children\u2019s Commission Act.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nomdo also informed the Standing Committee that she lacks a permanent office and occupies a temporary space within the provincial government offices. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An appropriate office for the institution was identified in Cape Town. However, she was advised that it may take more than two years to prepare for occupancy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nomdo encouraged the public to write to the Speaker of the legislature to initiate the process of appointing a new Commissioner for Children and to publish a timeline to achieve this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe public should consider the specific qualities as well as professional and personal traits that they believe are essential in a Commissioner for Children. It is imperative to collectively ensure a seamless transition in leadership for the benefit of our province\u2019s children.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Western Cape
