Reform of the electricity market: Updates on the ERA Bill and draft Wholesale Market Code

However, the ongoing electricity supply crisis has accelerated calls and action to reform the market to provide for greater private access and a more competitive multi-marketsystem.

Virtual wheeling agreements: A new frontier in renewable energy supply solutions
It is trite that the amendment of the Electricity Regulation Act 4 of 2006 (ERA) in August 2021 was the first fundamental step to “ unlocking ” the private electricity generation and procurement market in South Africa. In addition to dispensing with the need for a license for projects with a generation capacity below 100MW (this threshold has since been deleted in its entirety), Schedule II of the ERA was amended to allow for the wheeling of electricity to multiple customers.

When does the proverbial clock begin to tick under section 7(1) of PAJA?
A ruling was made by the Constitutional Court at the end of last year in Sasol Chevron Holdings Limited v Commissioner for the South African Revenue Services ZACC30, confirming that the 180-day period afforded by section 7(1) of the Promotion of Administrative Justice Act 3 of 2000 (PAJA) starts running from the date that reasons for the decision are provided with sufficient detail to allow the offended party to file an objection against the decision. A party’s request for more detailed reasons does not afford that party room to argue that the 180-day period only starts running once those more detailed reasons are provided.

A prudent question is one half of wisdom: The consequences of business email compromise on individuals | Part 2
Modern day technology has afforded people the luxury of convenience. However, with this increased convenience has come an upsurge in cybercrime attacks against law firms, banks, individuals and other institutions. The most common forms of attack are ransomware attacks, hacking and phishing scams. In the first part of this alert, titled A prudent question is one half of wisdom: The consequences of business email compromise on banks and attorneys , we discussed the case of Hartog v Daly and Others (A5012/2022) ZAGPJHC 40; 2 All SA 156 (GJ) (24 January 2023), in which an attorney fell victim to fraudsters who intercepted email communication and provided false banking details. This resulted in the attorney making payment into a fraudulent account without further questioning the change in the details, leading to a claim against him by the rightful recipients of the funds, which claim was upheld by a full court. In this article, we discuss the case of Edward Nathan Sonnenberg Inc v Hawarden (Case no 421/23) ZASCA 90 (10 June 2024), in which the Supreme Court of Appeal (SCA) considered the liability of a law firm in respect of a claim for pure economic loss caused by an alleged negligent omission.
