They have until Tuesday, November 30 to register and renew their status. This process will enable the city to monitor and address the increasing illegal practices in this sector.
Acting Head of the Parks, Recreation and Culture Unit Vusi Mazibuko said the municipality is concerned about the growing number of illegal undertakers and monumentalists.

“This practice has a negative impact not only on the business sector, but grieving families as well,” he said. He said one of the ways the city is trying to regulate the industry is by encouraging businesses to register on the database.
“This will allow them to be empowered with relevant skills to ensure compliance and that the sector is well regulated,” he added.
Registration forms are obtainable from the 7th floor, Delta Towers Building, 303 Dr Pixley KaSeme (West) Street. To register, the following documents are required: ID, CK Document and Certificate of Competence.
