The Referendum Party (RP) invites your input on a proposed constitutional amendment which would end race-based policy in South Africa.
The constitution already explicitly prohibits unfair discrimination on the basis of race, but section 9 (2) has come to be read as to permit racial discrimination against categories of persons in order to advance equality. The proposed legislation will establish a fairer and more just framework through which to advance equality, whilst bringing an end to the use of race to make blanket decisions about individuals.
Have your say – influence the decision.
RP Drafts Non-racialism Bill And Circulates For Comment
The Referendum Party (RP) has drafted a Non-racialism Bill and circulated it for comment. It will officially be referred to as the ‘Constitution Twenty-First Amendment Bill’ and its purpose is to finally bring an end to all race-based policy and legislation in South Africa.
Two morally indisputable principles are at the heart of the Bill: that we are unique individuals and are therefore entitled to have our specific circumstances taken into account, and that in remedying the effects of unfair discrimination against a person or persons, it is unjust for the state to unfairly discriminate against another person or persons.
