Dreyer, Ms AM to ask the Minister of Transport

With reference to the reply to question 3817 on 28 November 2017, (a) on what date will legislation be amended to match the legislation of all other Southern African Development Community countries and (b) why has the specified legislation not been amended to date?

Reply:

a) As the Honourable Member is aware, the development of legislation is a process which entails various consultations and stakeholder engagements prior to its implementation and coming into effect. For that reason, my Department cannot with absolute certainty determine a date on which a legislation will be amended.

b) There have not been discussions about the possible amendment to the National Road Traffic Regulations, 2000 (Regulation 224) which sets the overall height of any other motor vehicle at four-point three meter (4.3m).
