SA Political Parties Unite to Petition President Ramaphosa on Electoral Matters Amendment Bill

todayApril 3, 2024 9

Background
share close

Several South African political parties, including the African Christian Democratic Party, the DA, and the African Transformation Movement, have collectively appealed to President Cyril Ramaphosa to send the Electoral Matters Amendment Bill back to the National Assembly for reconsideration. They urge Ramaphosa to delay the bill’s implementation pending further review. These parties argue that certain aspects of the bill are unconstitutional, particularly concerning its impact on the allocation of public funding to political parties, including independent candidates. They express concerns that the bill’s provisions could have detrimental effects on smaller political parties.
