QUESTION 1
Adoption of Legislation
Adoption refers to the formal process through which a proposed piece of legislation
(a bill) is scrutinized, debated, and ultimately approved by the legislative body. The
stages of adoption include:
1. Drafting and Introduction: A bill is drafted and introduced to the legislative
body.
2. Readings and Debates: The bill goes through several readings and debates
in the legislative body. These stages allow lawmakers to discuss, amend, and
refine the bill.
3. Committee Consideration: The bill is often referred to a committee for detailed
examination and recommendations.
4. Voting: The legislative body votes on the bill. If the bill passes the vote, it moves
forward in the legislative process.
5. Presidential or Premier Assent: Once the bill has been passed by the
legislative body, it must be signed by the President (for national legislation) or
the Premier of a province (for provincial legislation) to become an Act of
Parliament or a Provincial Act.
The procedures for adopting Acts of Parliament and Provincial Acts are outlined in
Chapters 4 and 6 of the Constitution of South Africa. Upon signing, the bill becomes
law, but it does not yet come into operation.
Commencement of Legislation
Commencement refers to the point in time when a law that has been adopted and
signed comes into effect and is enforceable. According to Section 13(1) of the
Interpretation Act 33 of 1957, the term "commencement" is defined as follows:
1. Default Rule: A law comes into operation on the day it is first published in the
Government Gazette unless another date is specified.
