Yesterday's programme on Thetha FM

Yesterday's programme was more informative about the National Constitution and Statutes law passed by the Government. 


Laws made by the National Parliament are called Acts of Parliament. 

Laws made by Provincial legislatures are called Ordinances and laws made by municipality councils are called by-laws.  I have covered:

  1. Common law
  2. Customary law

Common law is based on Roman Dutch law.  This law was brought by the Dutch when they arrived in our country (South Africa)

Customary laws are also unwritten laws that apply to certain cultures or ethnic groups.

All these laws have to follow the Constitution.  In other words they cannot go against what the Constitution says.  That is the Power of the Constitution.

This is a great update on the show.  How did people respond?  The listeners response is good.
