Big step towards greater protection of South Africa’s mega-biodiversity

South Africa is considered to be one of the world’s few megadiverse countries and contains high levels of endemism. The National Environmental: Biodiversity Act 10 of 2004 (NEMBA) was brought into effect 20 years ago, but despite the measures provided for in the NEMBA, the well-publicised exploitation of South Africa’s biodiversity has raged on. It therefore comes as no surprise that various legislative steps have now been initiated to introduce more progressive and diverse measures to protect and ensure the sustainable use of South Africa’s rich biodiversity. These steps culminated in the publication of the Biodiversity Bill by the Minister of Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment (Minister) on 24 May 2024, inviting the public to submit comments on the bill on or before 23 July2024.
