Constitution Amendment Bill No. 3 becomes law

Online Reporter

The Constitution of Zimbabwe Amendment No. 3 Bill has officially become law after receiving Presidential assent and being published in the Government Gazette today.

The development marks the conclusion of the legislative process for CAB 3, which had been before Parliament and Senate for debate and public consultations over the past months.

The new law introduces legal and structural adjustments to the country’s national governance framework, including the extension of the electoral cycle from five to seven years.

The publication in the Gazette means the amendments are now part of the country’s supreme law and will guide governance, legislation, and court interpretation going forward.
