Road Accident Benefit Scheme doomed to fail
PRETORIA NEWS / 4 DECEMBER 2018, 2:30PM / GERT NEL Over the past few weeks, the portfolio committee on transport held public consultations to gather comments on the proposed new Road Accident Benefit Scheme (Rabs) Bill. A common theme echoed in all the presentations, being that the bill, in its current form, will fail constitutional muster and that taxpayers will simply not be able to afford a dual system, essentially adding the financial demands of the new proposed Rabs on top of the already struggling Road Accident Fund (RAF). Regardless of the comments, the portfolio committee passed a motion allowing the bill to proceed to the next phase towards enactment. The recent public consultations were a dismal failure and cannot in any reasonable terms be described as proper public consultations. Most of the attendees were opposed to the bill. Those opposed to the bill were cut short in their presentations, and in some instances,

Nene to clarify cost of RAF Bill
PRETORIA NEWS / 20 AUGUST 2018, 07:06AM / ZELDA VENTER THE portfolio committee on transport and the Department of Transport have agreed to meet Finance Minister Nhlanhla Nene tomorrow to discuss the enormous cost implications to the proposed Road Accident Benefit Scheme Bill. Both parties are pushing for the proposed bill to be finalised by the end of October. Over the past few weeks the committee held public consultations in the nine provinces to gather comments on the proposed new bill. This followed weeks of submissions that were made to the department in Parliament by various stakeholders, including the law societies. Pretoria-based Road Accident Fund (RAF) expert and lawyer Gert Nel said a common theme echoed in all the presentations was that the bill in its present form would fail constitutional muster. “The South African taxpayer will simply not be able to afford a dual system, essentially adding the financial
