Article: Nkwinti explains 30% land target

The confusion over the kind of land that made up the government's 30% land redistribution target had led to a debate by Freedom Front Plus leader Pieter Mulder and others over South Africa's land issues, the Minister of Rural Development and Land Reform Gugile Nkwinti said on Thursday.

Briefing media, Nkwinti said the 30% target by 2014 related to the transfer of 30% of the 82 million hectares of land currently held by commercial farmers, to black people.
 
I'm not going to read the whole article, but does this means they just want 30% of total agricultural land be in possession of black people? Aren't we way past that margin already?
 
It rather sounds like there's a lot they don't know about the process & how far its gone .. yet that doesn't stop the loudmouths from shouting the same figures from the stages.
 
A team of 228 people were working on the land audit of state and public land - which Nkwinti expected to be completed by June. However, he wanted an update on the audit later this month.

So they are still busy to find out what they have, but it is already decided that they do not have enough?
