For anyone not involved with it on a day-to-day basis the law is complex, obscure and outdated. It is desperately in need of revision and codification. Although the Department of Constitutional Affairs is currently involved in a review, there appears to be little likelihood of new primary legislation. Unfortunately, this is not an area of the law that has popular appeal, but it is important for those who are affected.
