Sonke’s submission on the Women Empowerment and Gender Equality Bill

Sonke Gender Justice’s January 16th 2014 submission on the Women Empowerment and Gender Equality Bill. Sonke calls attention to 1) the lack of adequate consultation in the development of the bill, 2) WEGE’s duplication of provisions and powers in other existing legislature, 3) the need for a thorough review of the failure of existing measures to achieve greater gender equality, 4) the potential for jurisdictional conflict with the CGE.
