MK Party MP Mzwanele Manyi made a presentation to the Justice and Constitutional Development Portfolio Committee on the Private Member's Bill that proposes a constitutional amendment to allow expropriation of land without compensation.
The MK Party’s Private Member’s Bill, aimed to amend the Constitution to allow for expropriation of land without compensation, as far back as 1652, drew mixed reactions from parties in Parliament on Tuesday.
Some members in the Justice and Constitutional Development Portfolio Committee described the bill as “food for thought”, while others felt it has far-reaching implications.
This was after the party’s MP, Mzwanele Manyi, made a presentation on the bill to fellow committee members during a virtual session.
Manyi said the bill sought to restore land justice, advance economic freedom, and complete decolonisation.
