    Introduction

 

 

 

Since it was passed in 1996, the Constitution of South Africa has been amended on several occasions. However, this time around there is mounting resistance against its reform. The proposals tabled by the Department of Justice and Constitutional Development relates to these aspects:

 

 ·     The authority of constitutional court will be increased with a corresponding decrease in the authority of the Supreme court of Appeal

·     The president will appoint the judges president and the deputy judges president of the various divisions of the High Court

·      No court will be entitled to make an order suspending the commencement of an act of parliament or of a provincial council
