Debbie Schafer, Shadow Deputy Minister of Justice and Constitutional Development
The long-awaited report on the implementation of the Sexual Offences Act, tabled in Parliament last week, has shown the Justice Department’s utter lack of concern with regards to the plight of women and children in our country. It has taken the Department nearly four years to produce a report on implementation activities, despite this being required in the Act. However, all the report does is show how the Department has not implemented the Act.
