 The department of transport has denied that the e-tolling bill has been withdrawn in Parliament.

Department spokesperson Tiyani Rikhotso says the portfolio committee has held its public hearings and is due to bring the matter before Parliament.

He says the matter has been postponed for discussion.

Earlier, there was jubilation from those opposed to the Transport Laws and Related Matters Amendment Bill when it was withdrawn from the National Assembly order paper at the last minute.
