SA marriage laws to change
The Minister of Home Affairs has announced that his department is currently working on making a number of changes to South Africa’s marriage laws. According to Minister Aaron Motsoaledi, the updated policy must deal with the following: human dignity, equality and non-discrimination.
“The reason we want to change the current marriage policy is because it is wrong, and it is not working for South Africans,” he said. “There’s no law that prevents children from getting married. Children can obtain consent but parents provide the wrong consent.”
