South African Breweries says allegations that it demonstrated no reverence for the dignity of health-care workers and lacked empathy are “insulting”.

Rivett-Carnac argued in his affidavit that the government had failed to set out “verifiable, objective, and indisputable facts” regarding temporary and permanent job losses, among others.

He said when trauma cases increased again, that correlated not only with the easing of the alcohol ban, but with the easing of other restrictions. “I emphasise that SAB did not object to the first two complete alcohol bans, or the restrictions on the sale of alcohol that had been in place since March 2020 ... That said, these measures must be reasonable, necessary and justifiable,” argued Rivett-Carnac.
