"content": "The problem is as follows: This country has what we call a building code. The building code that we have was done in 1968. At that time, no one considered matters of PWDs and issues of access. We have only recently created the NCA that has the mandate of reviewing and approving all of those kinds of constructions. When we met them yesterday, part of the challenges they are facing was that first, there are 10 pieces of legislation regarding the construction industry. Those pieces of legislation need to be harmonised so that the new building code, which is being worked on, is anchored on some piece of legislation. The first thing that needs to be done is to amend the existing law. Even if you pass this Motion today, there is no mechanism to implement it.
