Section 34 of the Insolvency Act can be defined as a safeguard for the interests of South African creditors. Section 34 mandates that, before a business or its assets are sold, public notice must be given in the form of Gazette and newspaper publications, for creditors to be afforded the opportunity to assert their claims against the Seller before transfer occurs.

Notwithstanding the above, parties to an Agreement of Sale of Business or Assets, more often than not, agree to not comply with section 34(1) of the Act, due to several factors, such as ensuring that an Agreement is concluded due to a favourable purchase price for the Purchaser; or the Seller’s desperation to sell a business, which generally coincide.

In agreeing to not comply with Section 34(1), the parties, especially the Purchaser, exposes itself to considerable risks.

In today’s modern aged of fast paced business undertakings, it is imperative for good leadership and directorship to govern a company to be financially successful. A director that fails to uphold his or her duties, be it statutory or in common law, may drive a company to its financial ruin. In the past, bad management on the part of a director could have aggravated a creditor’s position, as the said director could have escaped liability on the basis that the creditor contracted with the company. Therefore any claim the creditor may have, would be hollow in case of liquidation. However, the Companies Act has tried to prevent the cumbersome situation by incorporating Section 76 into the Act.

NEW WEBSITE ARTICLE: Can a Landlord deduct or withhold money from a Tenant’s deposit?

In South Africa, the security deposit provided by a tenant upon entering a rental agreement serves as financial protection for the landlord. It is intended to cover costs related to damages, unpaid rent, or breaches of the lease terms. However, disagreements frequently occur regarding the circumstances under which a landlord is legally allowed to withhold or deduct amounts from this deposit when the tenant vacates the property.

So, the question arises, when is a landlord legally allowed to withhold or deduct these amounts from the deposit?
