# Home Affairs minister Leon Schreiber has welcomed the Constitutional Court judgment regarding the South African Citizenship Act 88 of 1995 with regards to the loss of citizenship. The court has declared a section of the Act, which stipulates that South Africans lose their citizenship after voluntarily acquiring the nationality of another country, as unconstitutional. Schreiber says his department will not only abide by this ruling but has immediately started work to enable affected individuals to confirm their citizenship reinstatement:
