18 April 2018 - NW937
Waters, Mr M to ask the Minister of Home Affairs
With reference to the reply to question 528 on 2 March 2018, (a) what exactly does indeterminate mean and (b) given the deadline from Parliament for introducing legislation, by what date will the legislation be introduced?
Reply:
a) Indeterminate in the context of the response to parliamentary question 528 means that the Commission had, as at that time of the response, not concluded its review and made determinations relating to voting procedures and requirements for voters outside of the Republic.
b) The Commission has submitted the Electoral Laws Amendment Bill to me. The process is to procure Cabinet approval and expeditious introduction into the parliamentary process.
