About: Ninth Amendment of the Constitution of South Africa

An Entity of Type: ChangeOfState100199130, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Ninth Amendment of the Constitution of South Africa modified the scheme for the allocation of seats in the National Council of Provinces, to account for the possibility of changes in the party makeup of provincial legislatures. This was necessary because of other legislation which had been introduced to allow members of the provincial legislatures to cross the floor (move from one party to another) without losing their seats. It came into force on 20 June 2002, and was effectively repealed on 17 April 2009 by the Fourteenth Amendment.
