When does the proverbial clock begin to tick under section 7(1) of PAJA?

A ruling was made by the Constitutional Court at the end of last year in Sasol Chevron Holdings Limited v Commissioner for the South African Revenue Services ZACC30, confirming that the 180-day period afforded by section 7(1) of the Promotion of Administrative Justice Act 3 of 2000 (PAJA) starts running from the date that reasons for the decision are provided with sufficient detail to allow the offended party to file an objection against the decision. A party’s request for more detailed reasons does not afford that party room to argue that the 180-day period only starts running once those more detailed reasons are provided.

Tax stability and predictability for economic sustainability

Prior to deciding to introduce or redomicile a business in any country, an investor must always consider how favourable, stable, and predictable the country’s tax system is. The primary rationale for this is the need for certainty and guarantee regarding the future sustainability of investment in the host country. This predictability ensures that the investor can plan for their business, which includes planning ahead for tax liabilities and allocating resources appropriately and efficiently. On the other hand, a tax regime that is unstable and unpredictable has the opposite effect, that is, it hinders an investor’s power to consciously make investment decisions, which would ultimately be a deterrent, leading to capital flight and reduced economic activity. Foreign direct investment (FDI) is particularly sensitive to tax stability and predictability, as investors weigh the risks associated with potential changes in tax laws. Countries with consistent and transparent tax regimes are more likely to attract FDI, contributing to economic development and job creation.

Collusion between debtor and creditor: Defence for a surety?

Although a person standing as a surety for a principal debtor might appreciate and understand what it means to be a surety, it is without doubt that many hope that the suretyship will never be implemented. Therefore, when the day comes when the suretyship is called upon, it comes as no surprise that the surety will try any defence, no matter how remote, to free themselves from liability.

Price personalisation or price discrimination: Can your computer tell the difference?

From booking accommodation and transport to purchasing products online, data analytics has given firms the ability to use automated pricing algorithms to charge personalised prices to every customer based on their data profile. Does this personalised pricing contravene competition law, or does it benefit competition? This debate has been raging in competition lawcircles.
