Covie community land claim
Abstract
The Covie community restitution claim refers to a claim by
past and present residents of Covie village, situated within
the Tsitsikamma National Park, between Plettenberg Bay
and Port Elizabeth in the Western Cape province. The claim
relates to the forcible dispossession of this largely coloured
community of their residential plots, arable allotments and
commonage in the 1960s and 1970s.
