Submission to the Portfolio Committee on Home Affairs regarding the Electoral Amendment Bill (B1-2022)

23 February 2022 - In this submission the IRR argues against the new proposed electoral system put forward in the Bill, arguing that it will be confusing and does not meet the spirit of the Constitutional Court ruling which made the new legislation necessary. It argues that some form of a mixed-member proportional representation system should be adopted and the Bill as it stands be withdrawn.
