In its judgment on Tuesday, the Competition Appeal Court said the original order recognised there would be a gap in service from the date of retrenchment to the date on which the service contracts resume following reinstatement.

Following the judgment in 2012, in which the court approved the merger between Wal-Mart Stores and Massmart Holdings, the parties engaged one another to give effect to the conditions in the court order under the supervision of the Competition Commission.

On July 15 2013, the commission weighed in on the debate and issued a letter expressing its view that"the reinstatement is not retrospective and does not include back-pay".
