MASSIVE ISSUES<br />

WITH NEW NCA<br />

AMENDMENTS<br />

The President recently signed a new set of amendments to the National<br />

Credit Act. Although we are yet to find out exactly when they will<br />

come into effect, they already form part of South Africa’s legislation.<br />

The new laws impact on how debt review is done, and also make<br />

provision for consumers with smaller debts to get debt counselling<br />

from the National Credit Regulator (called Debt Intervention).<br />

When a new law will possibly have a big affect on the economy, then<br />

Government calls for a Socio-Economic report to see what could result<br />

if the new laws were passed. The results are normally discussed by<br />

Parliament and the President and from time to time the public.
