The Young Communist League of
South Africa has raised its concerns regarding the decriminalisation of
consensual acts by children between the ages of 12 and 16-years-old.
Parliament’s Justice Committee
has
to amend the 2007 Criminal Law-Sexual Offences and Related Matters Act to bring
it in line with two Constitutional Court judgments.
YCLSA Spokesperson Khaya Xaba said
we should teach our children on morality and we should make sure that children
at that age are not engaging in any form of sexual acts.
Xaba said they should be in school, they should be concerned with enjoying their youth and finishing school.

“Therefore we are against the
role of making sure that decriminalisation of sex at that age doesn’t pass”
Xaba added.
