The South African Communist Party (SACP) in the Western Cape is set to hold an augmented Provincial Executive Committee (PEC) meeting in Bellville South this weekend.

The committee will assess the party’s performance in the 2026 local government elections and map out its approach to governance and participation in local councils.

SACP Western Cape Provincial Secretary Benson Ngqentsu says the PEC is expected to receive a comprehensive elections report.

“We will detail a plan of action which is going to guide our seven red councillors, and also our structures outside the local state. Importantly, it will look at our approach to coalition government in areas such as Theewaterskloof, Saldanha Bay and maybe Knysna, and define a unique and ethical approach.”
