The Bisho High Court functions under that Decree. This measure is proposed as an interim arrangement, pending the rationalisation of the Republic's superior courts' system, in order to address a practical problem of accommodation without incurring any additional expenditure. This amendment will not alter the area of jurisdiction of the Bisho High Court. The Judges President of the Bisho High Court and the Grahamstown High Court were consulted in the matter. The State Law Advisers and the Department of Justice and Constitutional Development are of the opinion that this Bill must be dealt with in accordance with the procedure established by section 75 of the Constitution since it contains no provision to which the procedure set out in section 74 or 76 of the Constitution applies.
