Blind Persons Act 26 of 1968 There are some pre-independence regulations that appear to remain in force. However, since the portions of the Act relating to pensions for blind persons have been repealed, any regulations on this topic would have no current relevance. Furthermore, the regulations issued under the Act prior to Namibian independence were all race-based and thus would be inappropriate in respect of independent Namibia; there are separate sets of regulations for the “Burghers” of SWA (members of the Rehoboth Community), Chinese, Namas, “Natives”, “Coloureds” in SWA (separate from “Coloureds” in South Africa), “Whites” and “Indians”. For these reasons, the regulations are not included in the database of annotated laws. Full references and hyperlinks can be found in Namlex.
