(1) I have been informed by the Department that the Constitutional Court’s decision of the 8th of February 2023 relates to another application against the Minister of Tourism concerning the Tourism Relief Fund (TRF) and not the Tourism Equity Fund (TEF).
However, on 26 April 2021 the High Court of South Africa, in Pretoria, ordered that the Respondents, including the Minister of Tourism, are interdicted and restrained from processing any application and/or making any payments pursuant to any application for funding from the Tourism Equity Fund (TEF) pending the determination and finalisation Part B (main application) of the application. This litigation is still ongoing.
