The Bill of Rights seeks to promote and protect full enjoyment of the rights contained in the Constitution and requires the state to realise this by developing progressive legislation and other reasonable measures for the achievement of the above, within the backdrop of the social and economic transformation purpose of the Constitution. The success and therefore the benefit of the Bill of Rights can only be calculated within the prism of policies and legislation developed in line with this Constitution and how these are implemented by those who have been mandated to do soOnline resource (various pagings)enSouth Africa.--National Credit Act, 2005Consumer credit--Law and legislationThesis
