Press Release: Request for Comment Extension - NHI Bill
On 30 August 2019, the Portfolio Committee on Health announced its call for comments along with its deadline of 11 October 2019 on the NHI Bill.
The HSF is of the view that the NHI Bill is far too important and complex to be adequately engaged within this short comment period.
On 10 September 2019, the HSF submitted a Request to the Portfolio Committee on Health for an extension to allow for crucial documents to be released and form part of the public participation process.
