Rethinking staff outsourcing contracts from a tax perspective

On 30 August 2024, the Tax Appeals Tribunal (Tribunal) delivered a judgment in Appeal E433 of 2024 (judgment), in which it held that the reimbursement of staff costs made by a charitable foundation (Foundation) to a non-charitable but related company (Related Co) under a staff secondment arrangement was subject to withholding tax (WHT) since the costs amounted to management or professional fees. This marks a departure from its earlier decision in Two Lakes Packaging Services Limited v Commissioner of Domestic Taxes (Appeal Number 420 of 2021) (Two Lakes), in which the Tribunal held that WHT should not be deducted from recharges of staff salaries.

The soon to be ‘new’ preferential procurement framework

In addition to regulating public procurement generally, the long title to the Procurement Bill states that the Bill is meant to prescribe a framework within which preferential procurement must be implemented. Of course, this must be so, because the Constitution requires national legislation be enacted to provide for such a framework. It is important to note, however, that in as much as national legislation must prescribe a framework, the prerogative power to create and implement a preferential procurement policy within that framework remains with the individual organs of state and institutions. This was confirmed by the Constitutional Court, and is something that cannot be taken away from procuring entities by the Procurement Bill.
