High court dismisses DA case on cadre deployment
Quick Glance: DA to Sue ANC for Contempt of Court
  • DA leader John Steenhuisen says the ANC has violated a recent ConCourt order to submit full records of its cadre deployment committee's meetings and decisions from 2013 to 2021.

  • The DA will file a contempt of court application against the ANC for failing to provide complete and unredacted records of its cadre deployment documents.

  • The DA also plans to appeal the North Gauteng High Court's dismissal of their application to challenge the legality and constitutionality of the ANC's cadre deployment policy.

  • The party blames an employee, citing a crashed computer and deleted records, for the inability to fully disclose the required records.
