#CR17 fight heads to the Constitutional Court

But amaBhungane argued that, if this is the case, the law is unconstitutional.

“There are sound reasons for why the public should have easy access to funding information …” the court added. “However, this is not the case in which the constitutional implications of these issues could be fully ventilated.” Budlender goes on to argue that the constitution requires the state to tackle corruption. “Given that access to information is a key corruption-fighting tool, this includes enacting a code that may serve as a shield against potentially corrupt acts by requiring disclosure.”

But the president will argue that amaBhungane’s application to the Constitutional Court is irregular.

Is this not more taxpayers money wasted fighting amongst themselves.

PP will lose again and ConCourt will have the matter closed for good. That's my prediction......
