Johannesburg – The Constitutional Court is on Thursday expected to hear a case brought by trade union Solidarity and the South African Restructuring and Insolvency Practitioners' Association (Saripa) challenging the constitutionality of BEE and affirmative action.

The court case relates to the abolition of the Department of Justice's appointment policy insofar as liquidators are concerned, according to a statement issued by both Solidarity and Saripa.

Van der Bijl contends that the constitutionality and strict implementation of affirmative action and BEE would be tested during the crucial case. - NEWS24

JOHANNESBURG - The Constitutional Court has ruled that new home owners are not liable for historical debt incurred by previous owners.

Several municipalities including Tshwane, eThekwini and Ekurhuleni had argued that it was lawful for a municipality to attach and sell a recently purchased property in order to pay debt owed to them.

The case was brought by several property owners who opposed this practice.

Historically a property was not allowed to be transferred to a new buyer until a municipal certificate was issued, clearing any debt spanning a two-year period.

However, debts that surpassed the cut off became the liability of the new owner.

At the heart of this appeal was the interpretation of the Municipal Systems Act, which municipalities used to refuse to issue clearance certificates until all debts had been paid.

Justice Edwin Cameron handed down today’s unanimous judgement.

Cameron says the provision is capable of being interpreted so that the charge does not survive transfer.
