Foreigners with pending visa applications safeguarded against adverse consequences

Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Department of Home Affairs (Department) has experienced a severe backlog in the processing of visa, appeal and waiver applications. While the Department has been working to clear the backlog, it still continues in relation to various visa and permit categories. In the circumstances, and as his first official act as the newly appointed Minister of Home Affairs (Minister), Dr Leon Schreiber extended the previous temporary blanket extension that was granted by the former Minister, which expired on 30 June 2024. The purpose of the latest extension affirms the new Minister’s commitment to improve and reinvigorate the South African immigrationsystem.

Political parties’ involvement in workplace affairs

It has become a common feature in South Africa for political parties to want to become embroiled in workplace issues. This initially gained prominence with the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF,) a well-known opposition national political party. The Labour Court has, however, already taken a strong stance against the EFF in two reported judgments: Calgan Lounge v EFF and Others 40 ILJ 342 (LC) a matter in which Cliffe Dekker Hofmeyr (CDH) represented Calgan Lounge in 2018, and Gordon Road Spar v The Economic Freedom Fighters and Others 42 ILJ 1953 (LC) which was subsequently overturned by the Labour Appeal Court (LAC) in 2023 for technical legal considerations. We reported on these judgments in our 12 November 2018 , 4 October 2021 and 24 January 2022 Employment Law Alerts. The Gordon Road Spar judgment, however, needs to be heeded by employers who are faced with a similar dilemma and who intend to engage the assistance of thecourt.

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.
