The high court in Pretoria on Wednesday reserved judgment in an application for leave to appeal a judgment passed earlier this month that lockdown regulations were unlawful

Judge Norman Davis ruled on June 4 that the lockdown regulations were unconstitutional. He said the declaration of invalidity was suspended until such time as co-operative governance & traditional affairs minister Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma reviewed, amended and republished the regulations.After the judgment, the minister indicated she intended to apply for leave to appeal.

“We submit with respect that the finding that some regulations are invalid does not justify an order that all regulations are invalid,” Trengove said.
