The FW de Klerk Foundation welcomes the Department of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs Local Government: Municipal Structures Amendment Bill 2024.
Daniela Ellerbeck, Constitutional Rights Programme Manager, reviews the Department of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs’ bills that proffer solutions to address the problem of shaky municipal coalitions – the Coalition Bill and the General Bill.
The FW de Klerk Foundation’s submission regarding the Local Government: Municipal Structures Amendment Bill, 2024.
The FW de Klerk Foundation’s submission regarding the General Laws Amendment Bill, 2024.
Yesterday Parliament passed a very much reworked version of the General Intelligence Laws Amendment Bill (‘the GILAB’) – a shining example of successful public participation.
The Foundation is concerned that the BELA Bill was passed by Parliament as the Bill will infringe upon the right to education in an official language of your choice.
Shortly after 15h00 today, 15 May 2024, President Cyril Ramaphosa signed the National Health Insurance Bill (now Act) into law. In what some may see as a last attempt to gain goodwill for the ANC, he assented to the highly controversial law just 14 days shy of the national election.
The GILAB, which had civil society organisations using their legal expertise to insist that the State respect the Constitution, has been amended and is a success story of the effects of this public participation.
