Safety and security will be the name of the game this season after the establishment of a public safety task team comprising all the relevant role-players. The aim of the task team is to implement an integrated operational grid plan to ensure the safety of residents and tourists alike this season.

The task team was formed during a meeting on Wednesday, 11 December at the Windsor Hotel that was attended by, amongst others, SAPS, the Community Police Forum (CPF), Hermanus Public Protection (HPP),local law enforcement, the traffic department, AfriForum, several neighbourhood watches and representatives of business.
