Pretoria – The Supreme Court of Appeal (SCA) has granted Home Affairs Minister Dr. Aaron Motsoaledi leave to appeal the Zimbabwean Exemption Permit ruling in the Zimbabwe Immigration Federation (ZIF) matter.
“It will be recalled that in the Helen Suzman Foundation (HSF) and ZIF matters, the full court of the Gauteng Division granted orders sought by HSF and ZIF on 28 June 2023,” the Home Affairs Department said on Thursday.
“These are matters that have to do with the Zimbabwean Exemption Permit.
“The Minister of Home Affairs Dr. Aaron Motsoaledi applied for leave to appeal in the SCA in both matters.”
The department said the Minister’s leave to appeal the HSF matter was dismissed by the SCA and he has now applied for leave to appeal to the Constitutional Court.
“The Minister welcomes the decision of the SCA granting leave to appeal in that court the Zimbabwe Immigration Federation matter,” the department said.
“In light of the decision of the SCA, the Minister has already instructed his legal representatives to file a supplementary affidavit in the Constitutional Court.”
