High Court order stalls NHI roll-out until ConCourt decision
The Pretoria High Court formalises an agreement between the Presidency and NHI opponents to stay ongoing court proceedings.

The Pretoria High Court formalises an agreement between the Presidency and NHI opponents to stay ongoing court proceedings.

The President undertakes not to bring any provisions of the NHI Act into force until the Constitutional Court rules on two cases.

Organisations engaged in litigation to oppose the NHI Act respond to Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana’s appeal for a compromise.

The business group says the proposed stay will shield the Act from judicial review while allowing implementation to continue.

Business Unity SA is seeking a review of the employment equity targets, arguing they are substantively and procedurally irrational.

Designated employers must begin aligning their workplace demographics with the Employment Equity Act’s numerical targets from 1 September.
