6. Department of Cultural Affairs and Sport / Departement van Kultuursake en Sport / Isebe Lemicimbi yeNkcubeko Nemidlalo The political case for Farmworker Sport Cabinet resolution (number 297/05) taken in April 2005, requested that government target farm workers as a priority area for development. Sport and Recreation had sporadic programmes in rural areas, none specifically focusing on farms. However farms were included as a group, but not as a focal group. Therefore, farm workers were not seen as a focal group but part of the broader community, hence the systematic marginalisation of them.
