Parliament is currently considering the Constitution Twenty-Second Amendment Bill, which proposes to abolish the office of Deputy Minister and introduce limited oversight of ministerial appointments. While these are steps in the right direction, they do not go far enough in addressing the deeper issues of executive bloat, inefficiency, and lack of accountability.
Earlier this year, Free SA put forward a comprehensive proposal—the Power to the People Constitutional Amendment Bill, which proposed a much clearer path to a more efficient, transparent, and responsive government. As this parliamentary process unfolds, we call on South Africans to voice their support for reforms that go beyond symbolic change and tackle the root causes of dysfunction in our executive.
Every comment submitted through Free SA is a legally recognised input to Parliament. Your voice matters.
Let’s not settle for less. Let’s fight for a South Africa that works—efficient, accountable, and built on the will of its people. #PowerToThePeople
