The new National Assembly will not be complete until February 2026.
Those who hoped the newly elected seventh parliament might be inaugurated in the parliamentary precinct will be disappointed. The new National Assembly is still under construction. Instead, members of parliament will take their oath of allegiance to South Africa and the Constitution at the Cape Town International Convention Centre during the first sitting of the new parliament. The CTICC said arrangements are confidential, and it would not comment.
At a meeting of the Joint Standing Committee on Financial Management of Parliament on 8 March, Xolile George, secretary to parliament, said that an additional R943 million will be needed for Information and Communication Technologies to modernise parliament’s operations. Parliament has launched a website with information on the reconstruction. The website includes a timeline for the construction work and a virtual tour of how the new building will look when completed. © 2024 GroundUp.
