@RealVincenzi Hi

Kindly note that there is a sister Commission that deals with gender rights. Please see link of their statement on the matter.

[Commission for Gender Equality @CGE_ZA]

MEDIA STATEMENT| A society in which women have to alter their daily life activities is not a society in which women enjoy substantive equality.

@JusttSk1 @SothoDudu @JacintaNgobese Hi

[SAHRCommission @SAHRCommission]

@tafolaI8 The role of the Commission is that of a watch dog, meaning holding government to account. It is of this reason that the three Chapter 9 Institutions are conducting an inquiry.
