City of Cape Town: Establishment of a regional landfill site
City of Cape Town: Establishment of a regional landfill site
Cliffe Dekker Hofmeyr advised the City of Cape Town on a challenge to the authorisation of the establishment of a regional landfill site.
This mandate is important as the City of Cape Town is running out of space in which to dispose of waste and it is critical that a new landfill site be established to ensure that adequate municipal services are supplied.

Deferred purchase price and interest in share sale agreements: The National Credit Act
The National Credit Act 34 of 2005 (NCA) is not a piece of legislation that springs to mind when negotiating share sale transactions. This is mainly since share sale transactions typically do not constitute credit agreements and, if they do (due to payment deferral provisions), the NCA still wouldn’t apply where the purchaser (being the “ credit consumer ”) is a juristic person whose annual turnover or asset value equals or exceeds R1 million or where the purchase price is R250,000 or more, and the purchaser’s annual turnover or asset value is below R1million.
