The Bill is explicitly designed to allow South African courts to prosecute individuals (including dual citizens) accused of supporting, committing or aiding apartheid acts anywhere in the world, with a clear focus on the situation in Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories.
The Bill represents a significant move to “weaponise” South Africa’s human rights laws for international justice causes.
Hydraulic fracturing — particularly in the arid, environmentally sensitive Karoo — has been one of South Africa’s most contentious environmental issues for more than a decade. A moratorium on fracking in the Karoo was lifted in 2012, yet successive administrations have hesitated to proceed amid scientific uncertainty and public opposition.
The draft regulations detail how hydraulic fracturing would be authorised, monitored, and restricted countrywide.
The move signals a policy pivot toward fossil fuel expansion, notwithstanding the country’s climate commitments.
The Minister of Agriculture, Mr John Steenhuisen, has called on the public to comment on the proposed regulations for the Exportation of Live Animals by Sea.
South Africa exports thousands of live animals by sea each year, mainly cattle to Mauritius and sheep to the Middle East. Last year 52 animal welfare organisations urged government to ban this cruel trade. Instead, they’ve proposed new regulations in an attempt to legitimise and perpetuate this harmful practice.
