PEPUDA AMENDMENT BILL
The Ministry and the Department of Justice and Constitutional Development have noted a great deal of public and media interest in the proposed draft amendments to the Promotion of Equality and Prevention of Unfair Discrimination Act, 2000 (PEPUDA).
The Draft Bill was published for public comments and a large number of submissions were received. While many of the submissions touch on different aspects of the Bill, the majority of the submissions appear to be duplicate comments, albeit submitted by different persons or groups.
