QUESTION 1 AND 2 ARE BASED ON THE ACT.
Question 1
(a) The Act was adopted on 5 April 1996, assented to by the president on the 10
April 1996, but it only commenced on 19 June 1996. EXPLAIN the difference
between the dates of assent and commencement with reference to the
provisions of section 13 of the interpretation Act 33 of 1957.

a) Difference Between Assent and Commencement with Reference to Section 13 of
the Interpretation Act 33 of 1957

The process of enacting legislation follows several stages. The Act in question was:

Adopted on 5 April 1996 – This means it was passed by the legislature.
Assented to by the President on 10 April 1996 – This means the President approved
the Act by signing it into law. However, this does not mean that the Act automatically
came into operation.
Commenced on 19 June 1996 – This is the date when the Act became legally effective.

According to section 13(1) of the Interpretation Act 33 of 1957, the term
“commencement” means the day on which a law comes into operation¹. If no specific
commencement date is provided in the legislation, the default rule is that the Act comes
into effect on the date it is published in the Government Gazette².
