Cogta Minister Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma has been given an ultimatum to respond to concerns by 2pm on Wednesday or the DA would seek litigation.

After the Western Cape High Court dismissed an application by the hairdressing industry to be allowed to operate during alert level 3 of the lockdown, the DA has picked up the battle and is threatening to take the government to court over the same matter.

The party has written a legal letter to Dlamini-Zuma over what it termed as the “irrational, arbitrary and unlawful” continued ban on the personal care services industry.The letter, by Minde Schapiro and Smith attorneys, complains that the government has not provided any evidence to support its stance.

Last week, President Cyril Ramaphosa announced the government had acceded to the faith-based community’s request to congregate, but it could only happen with no more than 50 people gathered.
