2. FEEDBACK ON ASSIGNMENT 01
2.1 Feedback and suggested answer
ALL THE QUESTIONS ARE BASED ON THE NATIONAL YOUTH COMMISSION ACT 19 OF 1996
(HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AS "THE ACT").
Question 1
The Act was adopted on 5 April 1996, assented to by the president on 10 April 1996, but it
commenced only on 19 June 1996. Explain the difference between the dates of assent and
commencement with reference to the provisions of section 13 of the Interpretation Act 33 of
1957. (7)
After the Act had gone through all the stages in the legislature, it was passed or adopted by the
legislature on 5 April 1996. It was then sent to the President who assents to it by signing the Act
into law on 10 April 1996.
The Act came into operation on 19 June 1996. In terms of s 13(1) of the Interpretation Act
commencement means the day on which the law came into operation. Unless another day is
determined by the legislation, it will be the day it was published in the Government Gazette. S 13(2)
of the Act provides that the day shall begin at the expiry of the previous day. As no indication is
given in the extract, it could also have been a date fixed by the President by proclamation (S13(3)).
