Justice, Legal and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Ziyambi Ziyambi told The Chronicle that the Electoral Amendment Bill will be fast-tracked when Parliament resumes sitting on May 8 after a three-week recess.
He said when they resume sitting on May 8, they will suspend Parliament’s sitting rules so that the Bill is passed on time. Said Ziyambi:
I wish to state that Parliament will stand dissolved on the eve of the election. The electoral amendments that we are doing, for as long as we do them before proclamation, can be used for this particular election. So I still believe that we can still dispose of these issues in Parliament the week beginning the 8th and have the Act gazetted and sent to the President for assent. All that can be done. And this thing that we do not want to have the so-called amendments I don’t think it’s a correct assessment.
