President Cyril Ramaphosa on Thursday signed the Expropriation Bill into law.
In a statement, the Presidency said the Bill allows for local, provincial and national authorities “to expropriate land in the public interest for varied reasons that seek, among others, to promote inclusivity and access to natural resources”.
The ANC in 2017 proposed constitutional changes to make it easier for the government to take land without paying for it and address racially skewed land ownership patterns dating back to colonial and white-minority rule.
The key difference between the repealed pre-democratic Expropriation Act of 1975 and the newly signed Expropriation Bill is that the court is given the right to award nil compensation in cases of expropriation of land.
