Hon Chairperson, the Legal Aid Act, which predates the Constitution, has been amended several times on a piecemeal basis to accommodate the provisions of the Constitution. It is therefore a very comprehensive Bill that covers quite a lot that is in the interest of the people of South Africa.
Anybody who is interested in assisting the indigent people of South Africa would support the passing of the Bill. I therefore respectfully request this honourable House unanimously to pass this Bill in the interests of the indigent people of South Africa. I thank you. [Applause.]
