Is your mining investment safe? What the Expropriation Act means for South Africa’s mining sector

The Expropriation Act enables the South African Government to acquire property either for public purposes – such as roads, schools or utility infrastructure – or in the public interest, particularly for land reform. What sets this Act apart from its predecessor is its explicit provision for expropriation without compensation in exceptional cases. Examples include abandoned land, property not being used in a socially productive manner, or where the state has historically invested significantly in developing the property. These cases are, by design, narrow. The Act does not give the state carte blanche to seize property arbitrarily – nor does it negate compensation as a rule. Instead, it introduces a broader definition of justice, which takes into account the past as well as the present.

Trust me, it’s effective: A discussion of when a trustee’s resignation is deemed to be effective

Trust me, it’s effective: A discussion of when a trustee’s resignation is deemed to be effective Trusts are often faced with trustee resignations, which can impact the remaining trustees’ ability to carry out their duties and functions. Section 21 of the Trust Property Control Act 57 of 1988 affords trustees the right to resign by providing that, whether or not the trust deed provides for trustee resignations, a trustee may resign by notice in writing to the Master of the High Court (Master) and the beneficiaries who have legal capacity, or tutors or curators of the beneficiaries of the trust under tutorship or curatorship. The trust deed may also have its own resignation regime, for instance it may provide that a resignation may be affected by written notice to the co-trustees.
