PRINCE DUBEKO SIBANDA AND OTHERS V SPEAKER OF PARLIAMENT AND OTHERS

In addition, the applicants admitted that they had no cause of action against the second and third respondents. Unfortunately, it was well after those respondents had been needlessly dragged into legal expenses. I doubt that the concessions would assuage their financial bruises. The court cannot however ignore the apology tendered by Ms. Ndlovu on behalf of all the applicants and which appeared to have been well received by the respondents. It mitigates whatever turpitude had been occasioned.

HH 605-2019 Mlilo v Minister of Finance & Economic Development - Judgment by Zhou J invalidating SI 205/2019 re Intermediated Money Transfer Tax as unconstitutional - 18 September 2019

In this important judgment Justice Zhou decided that both SI 205/2018 [changing the rate and incidence of the Intermediated Money Transfer Tax] and the policy decision it gave effect to [as stated in the Minister's Supplementary Budget Presentation on 1st August 2019] were inconsistent with the Constitution and therefore void of legal effect.  He cited inconsistency with section of the Constitution 134(a) - which bars Parliament from delegating its primary law-making power - and the constitutional principle of Separation of Powers.
