1 254 The labour court also has review jurisdiction by virtue of its exclusive jurisdiction in terms of the Mine Health and Safety Act 202 and the SDA. 203 In terms of s158(1b) of the LRA, as introduced by the LRA Amendment Act 2014, the labour court may not review any decision or ruling 204 made during conciliation or arbitration proceedings conducted under the auspices of the CCMA or any bargaining council in terms of the provisions of the LRA until such time as the issue in dispute has been finally determined by the CCMA or such bargaining council, as the case may be. Despite this general prohibition, the labour court has the discretion, in terms of the aforesaid statutory provision, to review any decision or ruling made during conciliation or arbitration proceedings conducted under the auspices of the CCMA or any bargaining council in terms of the provisions of the LRA before the issue has been finally determined by the CCMA or the said bargaining council, as the case may be, if it is of the opinion that it is just and equitable to review such decision or ruling. 3.1 LRA s145 arbitration award reviews Section 145 of the LRA entitles a party to a dispute who alleges a defect in any arbitration proceedings under the auspices of the CCMA, to apply to the labour court for an order setting aside the arbitration award. By virtue of the provisions of s51(8) of the LRA, 205 an award handed down in an arbitration conducted under the auspices of a bargaining of of 1998, s31(2) 204 The main differences between an award and a ruling are the following: (i) an award deals with the merits of the dispute and is always handed down after all the evidence is (ii) heard and thus finally brings the dispute to an end; only certain rulings, on the other hand, bring a dispute to an end, e g rulings refusing to grant condonation of a late request for arbitration, rulings to the effect that the CCMA lacks jurisdiction. Thus, unlike awards, such rulings do not deal with all the issues in dispute; (iii) rulings also deal with interlocutory issues, such as whether or not to grant an adjournment, whether or not to allow legal representation in dismissal disputes relating to conduct or capacity or whether or not to admit certain evidence, etc KwaZulu-Natal Transport (Pty) Ltd v Mnguni [2001] 7 BLLR 770 (LC) at p 71; and (iv) where review proceedings relate to rulings dealing with interlocutory issues, same will generally only be entertained by the labour court once the arbitration proceedings have been completed 205 Section 51(8) of the LRA provides: Unless otherwise agreed in a collective agreement, sections 142A and 143 to 146 apply to any arbitration conducted under the auspices of a bargaining council.
2 255 council, unless otherwise provided in a collective agreement, is also reviewable in terms of s145 of the LRA. 206 The defect envisaged in s145 must relate to one of the following: (a) (b) (c) the commissioner committed misconduct in relation to the duties of the commissioner as an arbitrator; 207 or the commissioner committed a gross irregularity in the conduct of the arbitration proceedings; 208 or the commissioner exceeded his or her powers; 209 or (d) the award has been improperly obtained. 210 The s145(2)(a)(iii) ground (that the commissioner exceeded his or her powers) have been expanded by case law to the extent that a CCMA award must meet the constitutional requirement of rationality. Thus, an award must be justifiable in relation to reasons given having regard to material properly available to commissioner, the decision he or she took and reasons given for the decision. 211 Application for review must be made within 6 weeks of the date that the award was served on the applicant, unless the alleged defect involves corruption, in which event application must be made within 6 weeks of the date that the applicant discovers the corruption The meaning of misconduct Section 145(2)(a)(i) of the LRA provides that a CCMA arbitration award may be taken on review on the ground that the commissioner has committed misconduct in relation to the duties of a commissioner as an arbitrator. This phrase, save for the addition of the qualification that the review lies in respect of an arbitration award made by a commissioner as arbitrator, stems 206 National Commissioner of the SA Police Service v Maritz NO and Others (2004) 25 ILJ 2227 (LC), where the court held that the principle laid down by the labour appeal court in Reddy v Kwazulu-Natal Department of Education and Culture and Others (2003) 24 ILJ 1358 (LAC) that reviews of bargaining council awards are governed by s158(1)(g) of the LRA, has been overtaken by the addition to s51 of the LRA of sub-section (8), with effect from 1 August Section 145(2)(a)(i) of the LRA 208 Section 145(2)(a)(ii) of the LRA 209 Section 145(2)(a)(iii) of the LRA 210 Section 145(2)(b) of the LRA 211 Shoprite Checkers (Pty) Ltd v Ramdaw NO, Ziqubu and SA Commercial Catering and Allied Workers Union (2001) 12 (1) SALLR 79 (LAC); (2001) 22 ILJ 1603 (LAC)
3 256 from the Arbitration Act. 212 The meaning of misconduct as envisaged in the Arbitration Act, has been extensively considered by the high courts and the courts have, inter alia, laid down the following principles: (a) in Hyperchemicals International (Pty) Ltd and Another v Maybaker Agrichem (Pty) Ltd and Another, 213 Preiss J was called upon to decide whether misconduct as envisaged in s33(1)(a) of the Arbitration Act, 214 included the so-called legal misconduct known to English law. He quoted the following from Mustill and Boyd s Commercial Arbitration: Although from the point of view of logic the word misconduct is entirely appropriate to describe the conduct of proceedings otherwise than in the way required by law, the choice of language has proved to be unfortunate, especially since the 1889 Act referred only to the arbitrator having misconducted himself. Arbitrators...were understandingly resentful of the implication that the work which they have carried out in good faith involved personal misconduct. The courts have been sensitive to this resentment and have constantly taken pains to point out to arbitrators that allegations of misconduct do not necessarily mean what they appear to say...there has been a tendency to invent a category of technical misconduct which is contrasted with misconduct of a more personal nature. ; (b) (c) the word does not extend to bona fide mistakes the arbitrator may make as to fact or law, but only to where a mistake is so gross or manifest that it would be evidence of misconduct or partiality; 215 it must be so gross or manifest that it could not have been made without misconduct, before a court could justify drawing an inference that an arbitrator misconducted himself or herself. 216 Even a gross mistake, unless it establishes mala fides or partiality, would be insufficient to warrant interference; 217 the taking of a bribe is misconduct and renders the award improperly obtained. Where the arbitrator seriously shirks of (1) SA 89 (W) 214 Supra 215 Amalgamated Clothing and Textile Workers Union of SA v Veldspun (Pty) Ltd (1993) 4 (10) SALLR 52 (A); 1994 (1) SA 162 (A); (1993) 14 ILJ 1431 (A) at Smith v Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration and Others (2004) 25 ILJ 1072 (LC) relying on Hyperchemicals International (Pty) Ltd and Another v Maybaker Agrichem (Pty) Ltd and Another 1992 (1) SA 89 (W); Zaayman v Provincial Director: CCMA Gauteng and Others (1999) 20 ILJ 412 (LC) 217 Donnen v Ehrlich 1928 WLD 159 at 161
4 257 his duties it can be classified as misconduct or a gross irregularity in the proceedings; 218 (d) (e) (f) (g) there must be some wrongful or improper conduct on the part of the decision maker, in this instance the commissioner. 219 It requires some personal turpitude on the part of the decision maker; 220 the basic standards of proper conduct for an arbitrator are to be found in the principles of natural justice and, in particular, the obligation to afford the parties a fair and unbiased hearing. 221 These principles have been reinforced by the constitutional imperatives regarding fair administrative action. 222 The core requirements of natural justice are the need to hear both sides (audi alteram partem) and the impartiality of the decision maker; 223 it relates to some form of mala fide conduct or conduct which is obviously wrong in the circumstances; 224 the ordinary meaning of misconduct must yield to the intention of the legislature in terms of the principles laid down in Hira and Another v Booysen and Another; 225 and (h) misconduct can be latent or patent Stocks Civil Engineering (Pty) Ltd v RIP NO and Another (2002) 23 ILJ 358 (LAC) at Dickinson and Brown v Fisher s Executors 1915 AD E 166 at Reunert Industries (Pty) Ltd t/a Reutech Defence Industries v Naicker and Others (1997) 18 ILJ 1393 (LC); [1997] 12 BLLR 163 (LC); (1997) 8 (6) SALLR 91 (LC) at 1395H-I 221 Irrespective of the approach adopted by an arbitrator, an arbitrator must conduct the arbitration impartially and must not engage in conduct that might reasonably give rise to a party forming a perception that the arbitrator is biased Sasol Infrachem v Sefafe and Others (2015) 36 ILJ 655 (LAC); [2015] 2 BLLR 115 (LAC); See also Chabalala v Metal and Engineering Industries Bargaining Council and Others (2014) 35 ILJ 1546 (LC); [2014] 3 BLLR 237 (LC). Thus, an arbitrator must be careful not to assist either party when posing questions for clarity, otherwise such arbitrator runs the risk of being considered as being biased in favour of a party or against the party, as the case may be Satani v Department of Education: Western Cape and Others (2016) 37 ILJ 2298 (LAC) 222 Carephone (Pty) Ltd v Marcus NO and Others 1999 (3) SA 304 (LAC); (1998) 19 ILJ 1425 (LAC); (1998) 9 (3) SALLR 90 (LAC) 223 County Fair Foods (Pty) Ltd v Theron NO and Others (2000) 21 ILJ 2649 (LC) 224 County Fair Foods (Pty) Ltd v CCMA and Others (1999) 20 ILJ 2609 (LC) at 2617E followed in Rabie v Van Staden and Others (2004) 25 ILJ 738 (LC) (4) SA 69 (A) 226 Mutual and Federal Insurance Co Ltd v The Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration and Others [1997] 12 BLLR 1610 (LC)
5 The meaning of gross irregularity The courts have, inter alia, laid down the following relevant principles: (a) (b) (c) the term gross irregularity must be given its ordinary meaning. It must be gross and material. A commissioner could act in good faith but, nevertheless, commit a gross irregularity. It could be patent or latent. 227 Patent irregularities take place as part of the conduct of the trial and latent irregularities take place inside the mind of the commissioner and are ascertainable from the reasons given by him or her. Neither in the case of latent, nor in the case of patent irregularities, need there be any intentional arbitrariness of conduct or any conscious denial of justice. The crucial question is whether it prevented a fair trial of issues; 228 if there is a yawning chasm between the sanction which the court would have imposed and the sanction which the commissioner imposed, then a gross irregularity may have been committed. The use of the word gross indicates that the irregularity has to be so egregious that a court can conclude that the function of assessing a fair sanction had been misconceived; 229 it is not merely high-handed or arbitrary conduct which is described as a gross irregularity. Behaviour which is perfectly well intentioned and bona fide, though mistaken, may come under that description. The crucial question is whether it prevented a fair trial of the issues. If it did prevent a fair trial of the issues, then it will amount to gross irregularity Reunert Industries (Pty) Ltd t/a Reutech Defence Industries v Naicker and Others (supra) 228 Goldfields Investment Ltd and Another v City Council of Johannesburg and Another 1938 TPD 551; Mutual and Federal Insurance Co Ltd v The Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration and Others (supra) 229 Toyota SA Motors (Pty) Ltd v Radebe, the CCMA and Stone NO (1999) 10 (9) SALLR 87 (LAC); (2000) 21 ILJ 340 (LAC) followed in Shoprite Checkers (Pty) Ltd v Ramdaw NO and Others (2000) 21 ILJ 1232 (LC); Malan v Bulbring NO and Others (2004) 25 ILJ 1737 (LC); [2004] 10 BLLR 1010 (LC) 230 Ellis v Morgan 1909 TPD 576; Goldfields Investment Ltd and Another v City Council of Johannesburg and Another (supra); Waverley Blankets v Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration and Others (2000) 21 ILJ 2497 (LC)
6 259 The rule against gross irregularity focuses, in essence, on the integrity of the hearing. The test is that the conduct of the commissioner must be so grossly irregular that it can be said there was no proper hearing. 231 Thus, an arbitrator commits a gross irregularity if, inter alia, his or her conduct is such that an inference can be drawn from such conduct that the aggrieved applicant did not receive a proper hearing; 232 (d) (e) a commissioner s failure or omission to provide reasons for an arbitration award does not per se render the award irrational and reviewable, particularly where the commissioner s findings of fact, which were not disputed, and the way she recorded them, anticipated the remedy; 233 and the expression is not confined to the defects in the procedure as such. It covers the case where the decision-maker through an error of law misconceives the nature of his or her functions and thus fails to apply his or her mind to the true issues in the matter required by statute, with the result that the aggrieved party is in that respect denied a fair hearing. 234 Whether or not an error of law renders an arbitration award reviewable has been dealt with extensively, as set out hereunder. In Head of the Department of Education v Mofokeng, 235 Murphy AJA stated the following: 236 [32]...Mere errors of fact or law may not be enough to vitiate the award. Something more is required. To repeat: flaws in the reasoning of the arbitrator, evidenced in the failure to apply the 231 Department of Justice v Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration and Others (2001) 22 ILJ 2439 (LC); Maarten and Others v Rubin NO and Others (2000) 21 ILJ 2656 (LC) at 2659 para 4 followed in Rabie v Van Staden and Others (2004) 25 ILJ 738 (LC) 232 Smith v Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration and Others (2004) 25 ILJ 1072 (LC) 233 Amalgamated Pharmaceuticals Ltd v Grobler NO and Others (2004) 25 ILJ 523 (LC) at para [5] where the court distinguished the case in casu from Highveld Steel and Vanadium Corporation Ltd v National Union of Metalworkers of SA and Others (2004) 25 ILJ 71 (LAC) at para 60, where the labour appeal court held that in the absence of reasons, the court of appeal could not assess whether the discretion was properly exercised and thus, had no alternative but to reconsider the matter afresh and exercise the discretion itself. The labour court held that the facts in casu anticipated the remedy and Highveld was an appeal from a judgment of the labour court, whereas the case in casu was a review of an award 234 Paper Printing Wood and Allied Workers Union v Pienaar NO and Others (1993) 14 ILJ 1187 (A) at 638G-639B and Kynoch Feeds (Pty) Ltd v The CCMA, Khumalo NO and Padayachee MK (1997) 8 (9) SALLR 63 (LC); (1998) 19 ILJ 836 (LC) 235 [2015] 1 BLLR 50 (LAC) 236 At para [32] to [33]
7 260 mind, reliance on irrelevant considerations or the ignoring of material factors etc must be assessed with the purpose of establishing whether the arbitrator has undertaken the wrong enquiry, undertaken the enquiry in the wrong manner or arrived at an unreasonable result. 237 Lapses in lawfulness, latent or patent irregularities and instances of dialectical unreasonableness should be of such an order (singularly or cumulatively) as to result in a misconceived inquiry or a decision which no reasonable decision-maker could reach on all the material that was before him or her. [33] Irregularities or errors in relation to the facts or issues, therefore, may or may not produce an unreasonable outcome or provide a compelling indication that the arbitrator misconceived the inquiry. 238 In the final analysis, it will depend on the materiality of the error or irregularity and its relation to the result. Whether the irregularity or error is material must be assessed and determined with reference to the distorting effect it may or may not have had upon the arbitrator s conception of the inquiry, the delimitation of the issues to be determined and the ultimate outcome. If but for an error or irregularity a different outcome would have resulted, it will ex hypothesi be material to the determination of the dispute. A material error of this order would point to at least a prima facie unreasonable result. The reviewing judge must then have regard to the general nature of the decision in issue; the range of relevant factors informing the decision; the nature of the competing interests impacted upon by the decision; and then ask whether a reasonable equilibrium has been struck in accordance with the objects of the LRA. 239 Provided the right question was asked and answered by the arbitrator, a wrong answer will not necessarily be unreasonable. By the same token, an irregularity or error material to the determination of the dispute may constitute a misconception of the nature of the enquiry so as to lead to no fair trial of the issues, with the result that the award may be set aside on that ground alone. The arbitrator however must be shown to have diverted from the correct path in the conduct of the arbitration and as a result failed to address the question raised for determination. 240 In DENOSA obo Du Toit v Western Cape Department of Health, 241 Davis JA, although obiter, adopted the following approach: a 237 Herholdt v Nedbank Ltd 2013 (6) SA 224 (SCA); (2013) 34 ILJ 2795 (SCA); [2013] 11 BLLR 1074 (SCA) at paras [21] to [25] 238 In CUSA v Tao Ying Metal Industries and Others [2009] 1 BLLR 1 (CC), the constitutional court seemed to take the view that a legal error would be reviewable if it was material to the determination of the dispute submitted to arbitration 239 Bato Star Fishing (Pty) Ltd v Minister of Environmental Affairs and Tourism and Others 2004 (4) SA 490 (CC) paras [49] to [54] 240 Telcordia Technologies Inc v Telkom SA Ltd 2007 (3) SA 266 (SCA) paras [52- to [78] and [85] to [88] 241 (2016) 37 ILJ 1819 (LAC)
8 261 material error of law committed by an arbitrator may, on its own, without having to apply the exact formulation as set out in the Sidumo judgment, 242 justify a review and setting aside of an award, depending on the facts as established in a particular case. Subsequently, the labour appeal court, in MacDonald s Transport Upington (Pty) Ltd v AMCU, 243 stated the following: [30] In my view, there is much to be said for the proposition that an arbitrator in the CCMA or in a Bargaining Council Forum who wrongly interprets an instrument commits a reviewable irregularity as envisaged by section 145 of the LRA; i e, a reasonable arbitrator does not get a legal point wrong. If so, the reasonableness test is appropriate to both value judgments and legal interpretations. The labour court, with approval, referred to the aforesaid judgments in Opperman v CCMA and Others Meaning of exceeds the commissioner s powers The courts have, inter alia, laid down the following relevant principles: (a) (b) a commissioner will exceed his or her powers when he or she strays from the ambit of the commissioner s jurisdiction, or makes a ruling or award beyond the powers of the commissioner, or where the commissioner makes findings that are not justified with reference to the evidence before him or her, which leads him or her to draw inappropriate inferences. 245 Conversely, a commissioner will not exceed his or her jurisdiction or powers if, given a choice of remedies, one remedy is chosen above another; 246 it is impossible to provide an exhaustive list of acts or the failure to act which could amount to a commissioner exceeding his or her power, but the following are examples of same: (i) where a commissioner awards compensation in excess of the amount prescribed by the LRA or, 242 Supra 243 (2016) 37 ILJ 2593 (LAC) 244 (2017) 38 ILJ 242 (LC); (2016) 27 SALLR 121 (LC) 245 Smith v Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration and Others (2004) 25 ILJ 1072 (LC) 246 Reunert Industries (Pty) Ltd t/a Reunert Defence Industries v Naicker and Others (supra)
9 262 alternatively, awards notice pay, which does not fall within the remedies available to an employee whose dismissal is arbitrated by the CCMA; 247 (ii) (iii) (iv) (v) where a commissioner orders the employer to hold a disciplinary enquiry; 248 where a commissioner fails to follow principles laid down by decisions of the labour and labour appeal courts; 249 where an arbitrator misconceived his or her function as having to determine a fair sanction instead of determining whether the dismissal is for a fair reason; 250 and failure to consider whether an employee has shown good cause for a late referral of an unfair dismissal dispute for conciliation; 251 (c) (d) one must not be misled by the use of the word exceeded. It does not mean that an award can only be set aside if what is awarded is greater than that which can permissibly be awarded. It simply means that if the award made is one which the commissioner had no power to make, then it falls to be set aside as an award in excess of the commissioner s powers; 252 a commissioner does not exceed his or powers by failing to issue an arbitration award within 14 days of the conclusion of the arbitration proceedings as enjoined by s138(7)(a) of the LRA. An award, once signed, will be made available for service on each party to the dispute or the person who represented such party in the arbitration proceedings. Section 138(8) of the LRA makes provision for an extension of the time within which to issue an 247 Coin Security Group (Pty) Ltd v Mshengu and Others (2001) 22 ILJ 910 (LC); Els Transport v Du Plessis and Others (2001) 22 ILJ 1390 (LC); SA Broadcasting Corporation v Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration and Others (2001) 22 ILJ 487 (LC); Le Roux v Commissioner for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration and Others (2000) 21 ILJ 1366 (LC) 248 Sajid v Mahomed NO and Others (2000) 21 ILJ 1204 (LC) 249 Le Roux v Commissioner for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration and Others (supra) 250 Foschini Group (Pty) Ltd v Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration and Others (2001) 22 ILJ 1642 (LC) 251 Alternative Finance Ltd v Adair NO and Others [1998] 10 BLLR 1011 (LC) 252 Le Roux v Commissioner for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration and Others (supra)
10 263 arbitration award. There may, of course, be circumstances where an award is issued so late that different consequences may follow. If there is substantial compliance with s138(7)(a) of the LRA, the arbitration award is not a nullity; 253 and (e) with regard to the meaning of an award must be justifiable in relation to the reasons given for it, the following principles are relevant: (i) (ii) where an award is not justifiable in relation to the reasons given for it, the commissioner had acted outside the constitutional constraints to which he or she was subjected to and, accordingly, the award is reviewable under s145 of the LRA; 254 and rationality is a basic requirement of any exercise of public power. The labour appeal court, in Carephone v Marcus, 255 formulated the test as follows: is there a rational, objective basis justifying the connection made by the decision-maker between the evidence properly available to him or her and the conclusions so reached by him or her? An arbitration award may be reviewed under s145 of the LRA on the basis that the outcome is irrational or not justifiable on the basis of the reasons given for it Meaning of an award has been improperly obtained The phrase contemplates, inter alia, a scenario where one party to the arbitration proceedings has fraudulently withheld knowledge from the other party that the arbitration proceedings were to take place 257 or, by other improper means, obtained an arbitration award in his or her favour. This ground for reviewing an arbitration award or ruling may also overlap with the other grounds already 253 Free State Buying Association Ltd t/a Alpha Pharm v SA Commercial Catering and Allied Workers Union and Another (1998) 19 ILJ 1481 (LC) 254 Carephone (Pty) Ltd v Marcus NO and Others 1999 (3) SA 304 (LAC); (1998) 19 ILJ 1425 (LAC); (1998) 9 (3) SALLR 90 (LAC), inter alia, referred to in Smith v Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration and Others (2004) 25 ILJ 1072 (LC); Malan v Bulbring NO and Others (2004) 25 ILJ 1737 (LC); [2004] 10 BLLR 1010 (LC) (3) SA 304 (LAC) 256 Shoprite Checkers (Pty) Ltd v Ramdaw NO, Ziqubu and SA Commercial Catering and Allied Workers Union (2001) 12 (1) SALLR 79 (LAC); (2001) 22 ILJ 1603 (LAC), referred to in, inter alia, Rabie v Van Staden and Others (2004) 25 ILJ 738 (LC); Malan v Bulbring NO and Others (supra) 257 Coetzee v Thyssen (SA) (Pty) Ltd (1998) 3 LLD 405 (LC)
11 264 referred to above, for instance, the taking of a bribe constitutes misconduct but also renders the award improperly obtained LRA s158(1)(g) reviews The applicable grounds for review are any grounds that are permissible in law, i e both the common and statutory law. As the LRA does not prescribe the time period within which to bring an application for review, the common-law position applies and an application for review must be brought within a reasonable time. 259 Where it has not been brought within a reasonable time, an application for condonation must be filed with the application, failing which, the application cannot stand. 260 An application brought for the review of the CCMA s refusal to rescind an arbitration award is to be brought also in terms of s158(g) of the LRA Reviews on grounds permissible in common law The appellate division (now known as the supreme court of appeal) has considered and restated the position relating to common law reviews in Hira and Another v Booysen and Another 262 in the following manner: (a) generally speaking, the non-performance or wrong performance of a statutory duty or power by the person or body entrusted with the duty or power will entitle persons injured or aggrieved thereby to approach the court for relief by way of common-law review; (b) where the duty or power is essentially a decision-making one and the person or body concerned ( the tribunal ) has taken a decision, the grounds upon which the court may, in the exercise of its common-law review jurisdiction, interfere with the decision are limited. These grounds are set forth in 258 Stocks Civil Engineering (Pty) Ltd v RIP NO and Another (supra); Moloi v Euijen NO and Another (1997) 18 ILJ 1372 (LC) 259 CWIU and Another v Ryan and Others [2001] 3 BLLR 337 (LC); Lutchman v Pep Stores and Another (2004) 25 ILJ 1455 (LC) 260 Lutchman v Pep Stores and Another (supra) relying on Mavundla and Others v Vulpine Investments Ltd t/a Keg and Thistle and Others (2000) 21 ILJ 2280 (LC); [2000] 9 BLLR 1060 (LC); CWIU and Another v Ryan and Others (supra); Fidelity Guards Holdings (Pty) Ltd v Epstein NO and Others (2000) 21 ILJ 2382 (LAC); [2000] 12 BLLR 1389 (LAC); (2000) 11 (2) SALLR 21 (LAC) 261 Day and Night Investigators CC v Ngoasheng and Others (2000) 21 ILJ 1084 (LC); [2000] 4 BLLR 398 (LC) (4) SA 69 (A) at 93A-94A
