Veritas raises red flag on the Copper Control Amendment Bill

LEGAL think-tank Veritas has said Parliament must investigate how the Copper Control Amendment Bill, which recently sailed through Parliament, was altered.

Section 2 of the Act inserts the definition of “putative dealer” but the definition has since been changed, something that has triggered debate.

Veritas said Parliament did not pass or consider the definition now contained in the Act or resolve to drop the definitions of other terms like “police district” and “utilities.”
