The Finance Bill amended section stated that: > Section 3(1) of the Indigenisation and Empowerment Act [Chapter 14:33] is amended (a) by the insertion after “extraction of” of ‘such mineral as may be prescribed by the Minister in consultation with the Minister responsible for Mines and the Minister responsible for Finance; (b) by the repeal of paragraph (a); (c) the repeal of paragraph (b). The NewsHawks noted that the government has decided to depart from the previous provisions of the act: However, the new provision marks a departure from the Indigenisation and Economic Empowerment Act [Chapter 14:33] as amended by the Finance Act No.1 of 2018 that allowed locals to have 51% only in diamond or platinum extractive industries. Before that it was in all minerals. Finance Bill (No. 2) H.B. 9, 2020 _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
