New homes have been built for 108 District Six claimants who are expected to move into them in April.
On 11 February 1966, the apartheid government declared District Six a whites-only area under the Group Areas Act of 1950.
The District Six Working Committee was locked in a class action lawsuit against the government over its failure to deliver restitution 27 years into democracy.
It has been 55 years since residents were forcibly removed by the apartheid government from District Six in Cape Town, and now claimants are finally gearing up to return home.
District Six Working Committee co-chairperson Zahrah Nordien said: We are not going to stop the fight so that all the claimants can return to the area. There is [a] struggle because government lost some claimants papers which have caused significant delays.
