Judgment

Reported

Procurement by organ of state – whether s 217 of the Constitution is
applicable to Request for Bids (RFB) for the granting of car rental concessions –
Language used in s 217 is clear and unambiguous – s 217 applicable when organ of
state contracts for goods or services even where organ of state is not incurring an
expenditure – preferential procurement policy reflected in RFB bears no relation to
requirements of legislation envisaged in s 217(3) – non-compliance rendering RFB
irrational, unlawful and invalid.

Reported

Refugee law; ports of entry; inadmissible facility; non‑refoulement; jurisdiction of South African courts over detainees at international airports; duty to re‑admit and process refugees and asylum seekers; waiver of refugee status not presumed; interplay with international aviation instruments.

Civil Procedure – rescission of judgment – no distinction in approach to rescission of consent orders and other judgments – the starting point is the court order rather than the underlying agreement – lack of authority to conclude settlement agreement and consequent consent court order – good cause for rescission established.

Whether non‑compliance with a court‑ordered settlement constituted wilful contempt where the party relied on arbitration and legal advice.
* Civil procedure – contempt of court – enforcement of settlement agreement made an order of court – whether non‑compliance was wilful and mala fide. * Arbitration – dispute resolution clause incorporated into court order – whether arbitration precludes or delays contempt proceedings and whether a stay should have been considered. * Evidence – reliance on bona fide legal advice and attempts to comply may negate wilfulness; adequacy of affidavits from executives on advice material. * Contempt procedure – committal is a remedy of last resort; courts must scrutinise facts carefully before imprisonment.
Reported
