In Botswana, the primary legislation that offers protection to human rights covered by the Convention is the Constitution. Section 3 of the Constitution accords fundamental rights and freedoms to every person on a non-discriminatory basis, including race. In addition, Section 15 of the Constitution specifically prohibits discrimination on the basis of, among others, race. 2. Since Botswana’s last report, significant legislative developments which promote and protect human rights covered by this Convention have taken place. These include the enactment of the Local Government Act of 2008, Cybercrime and Computer Related Crimes Act of 2018 and the Children’s Act of 2009. These laws incorporate the principle of non-discrimination on the basis of race in public procurement, transmission of electronic material and administration of the Children’s Act, respectively. 3. In terms of institutional framework, the Government has established a Human Rights Unit within the Ministry of Presidential Affairs, Governance and Public Administration.

GEN. SERETSE KHAMA IAN KHAMA PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF BOTSWANA TO THE THIRD SESSION OF THE TENTH PARLIAMENT "BOTSWANA FIRST" 7th November 2011, GABORONE: 1. Madam Speaker, before we begin, I request that we all observe a moment of silence for those who have departed during the past year. Thank you. 2. Let me also take this opportunity to commend the Leader of the House, His Honour the Vice President, on his recent well deserved awards. In addition to the Naledi ya Botswana, which he received for his illustrious service to the nation, His Honour also did us proud when he received a World Citizen Award for his international, as well as domestic, contributions. I am sure other members will agree with me that these awards are deserving recognition of a true statesman. 3. Madam Speaker, it is a renewed privilege to address this Honourable House and the nation. This annual occasion allows us to step back and take a broader look at the critical challenges we face, along with the opportunities we can all embrace when we put the interests of our country first. 4. As I once more appear before you, I am mindful of the fact that this address will be the subject of further deliberations.

  • Legal Environment Assessment
    ASSESSMENT OF LEGAL AND REGULATORY FRAMEWORK FOR HIV, AIDS AND TUBERCULOSIS FINAL REPORT FOREWORD Botswana has made significant progress in addressing the HIV epidemic. Although this Legal Environment Assessment (LEA) report has shown that progressive laws, policies and jurisprudence in Botswana has helped to safeguard the rights of all people to equality and non-discrimination, including people living with HIV and TB and vulnerable populations such as women, there remain gaps and challenges that have been identified within Botswana’s current legal and policy framework that create barriers to access to prevention, treatment, care and support for all people, including vulnerable and key populations. It is imperative for all of us to take cognisance of the recommendations in the report if we are end AIDS by 2030. Botswana has adopted the Treat All strategy, developed HIV Testing Services (HTS) Strategy and reviewed the treatment guidelines. To achieve these targets by 2020, it is essential that the legal environment supports the national response in programming and ensure unrestricted access to services among all people of Botswana regardless of race, colour, religion, creed, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, vocation or other status. This report is a fundamental step in ensuring that each stakeholder plays a role in the fight against the epidemic. As highlighted by the UN Secretary General: “Whatever our role in life, wherever we may live, in some way or another, we all live with HIV. We are all affected by it. We all need to take responsibility for the response.” Ensuring no one is left behind is essential since vulnerable and key populations bear much of the burden of the epidemic today.

The paper contends that re-integration of ex-offenders is a continuation of their rehabilitation that should start during their incarceration. The paper argues that the Companies Act Chapter 42:01, the principal statutory law governing private enterprises in Botswana, generally fetters the rehabilitation and reintegration of offenders by placing unlimited discretion on the courts in the determination of whether ex-offenders should become directors of companies. Such wide and unrestrained powers of the courts may violate the right of ex-offenders to employment and managing their businesses.

  • Criminal Justice Proposed Policy
    I. LIMITING THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM’S REACH A. Policy Objectives To structure the criminal justice system so as to address the underlying causes of offending and to divert from formal court prosecution those cases involving some first time offenders and relatively minor crimes where there is no significant risk of harm to the public and where there is no overriding public interest for a prosecution. B. Policy Issues 1. Does the Penal Code contain offences relating to conduct that need no longer be classified as a crime or which may now be decriminalised? 2. Should a formalised general diversion scheme be introduced under the criminal justice system for certain offences and offenders? 3. Should formalised diversion schemes be introduced under the criminal justice system for specific categories of offenders such as young persons between the ages of 14 and 18 years who are first offenders, the mentally ill and alcohol and substance abusers? C. Policy Recommendations 1. A review of the Penal Code should be undertaken in order to flag for legislative review offences that need no longer be classified as criminal acts or which may now be decriminalised. 2. In order that informed decisions regarding the possible introduction of diversion may be made the relevant statistical information relating to the various offender groups that may be targeted by any diversion programmes should be collected and analysed. This will include, in particular, statistics concerning those offenders and offences that may be suitable for diversion, such as young first offenders, the mentally ill and alcohol and substance abusers. Information concerning any existing diversion schemes, formal or informal, operated by the police and the Director of Public Prosecutions should also be collected and analysed.
