The ball is in our courts: How section 20(9) of the Companies Act empowers courts to unmask corporate identity

One of the cornerstones of South Africa’s corporate law is the separate legal existence of companies, which provides, generally, protection to its directors and shareholders against personal liability for a company’s debts and also makes a distinction between companies forming part of the same group of companies. However, sometimes, through the unlawful actions of shareholders and directors, it is necessary for our courts to look behind the separate legal entity companies in a group and treat such group companies as one legal entity.

Big step towards greater protection of South Africa’s mega-biodiversity

South Africa is considered to be one of the world’s few megadiverse countries and contains high levels of endemism. The National Environmental: Biodiversity Act 10 of 2004 (NEMBA) was brought into effect 20 years ago, but despite the measures provided for in the NEMBA, the well-publicised exploitation of South Africa’s biodiversity has raged on. It therefore comes as no surprise that various legislative steps have now been initiated to introduce more progressive and diverse measures to protect and ensure the sustainable use of South Africa’s rich biodiversity. These steps culminated in the publication of the Biodiversity Bill by the Minister of Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment (Minister) on 24 May 2024, inviting the public to submit comments on the bill on or before 23 July2024.

Striving to honour and empower women this Women’s Day, and year-round

Each year we pay tribute to the thousands of women who marched to the Union Buildings on 9 August 1956, protesting against the extension of pass laws to women. We pause to reflect on what can be achieved through collective courage and determination and consider what more must still be achieved through collective action. One of CDH’s Pro Bono & Human Rights Practice’s (Practice) aims is to promote access to justice for all women, and to enforce and, where necessary, develop our legal framework to further recognise and honour the lived realities of our women. In this alert we shine a spotlight on some of the work being done by the Practice and public interest organisations to empower women not just this month, but year-round.
