The Criminal Law (Forensic Procedures) Amendment Bill was reintroduced to Parliament in the National Assembly last week. We will now wait to hear which Portfolio Committee will be assigned to review the Bill. It is expected to be announced next week and it is hoped that the Bill will be finalised during the next Parliamentary Session which will run from 4th August 2009 until the 23rd November 2009.
