The Expropriation Bill of 2020 (the Bill) has been adopted by Parliament and will become law once President Cyril Ramaphosa gives his assent to it. However, the President may not sign a bill into law if it inconsistent with the Constitution. The IRR has thus sent a letter and a detailed Petition to Mr Ramaphosa setting out the unconstitutionality of many clauses in the Bill and requesting him not to sign it into law.
