The pending Sports Bill would violate the Rule of Law
The National Sport and Recreation Act, 1998, calls itself a statute for the promotion and development of sport. This year’s threatened draft changes would violate the Rule of Law just as the Act’s 2007 amendments do. The 2007 amending statute’s preamble declares that sport belongs 'to the nation'. Its administration, though, is been 'entrusted' to sport bodies.
