The bail application of Zandile Christmas Mafe has been postponed to 29 January.
Mafe is still in isolation, after contracting COVID-19.
The state, Defence and the Acting President of the Regional Court met to discuss logistics on Friday.
Mafe was due to launch his formal bail bid in the Cape Town Regional Court on Saturday.
Western Cape High Court Judge President John Hlophe earlier this week ruled that Mafe’s magistrates court referral to Valkenberg Psychiatric Hospital was unlawful and ordered that he be sent back to Pollsmoor Correction Services Facility.
The 49-year-old Khayelitsha man faces five charges, including terrorism and arson, relating to the blaze that destroyed the National Assembly building as well as sections of the Old Assembly Chamber on 2 January.
Mafe is currently in custody at Pollsmoor Prison.
