Deputy Speaker, the DA would like to make a declaration, please. Thank you.
That's an odd way to place your request for declaration, but that's fine. Go ahead, hon member.
Declarations of vote:
Deputy Speaker, the Administrative Adjudication of Road Traffic Offences Act was enacted to discourage road traffic contraventions and facilitates the efficient adjudication of road traffic infringements. Under the current adjudication system, traffic violations fall under the ambit of the Criminal Procedure Act of 1977.
The objective of Administrative Adjudication of Road Traffic Offences, AARTO, is to ensure greater compliance with traffic laws and regulations by entrusting the adjudication of traffic offences to an autonomous body as regulated by the Act. This Act has been piloted in Johannesburg and Tshwane.
