And
THE DEPARTMENT OF HOME AFFAIRS
LIVHUWANI TOMMY MAKHODE N.O.
KUSILE FACILITIES MANAGEMENT
JUDGMENT / ORDER CASE NO: 2025-035879
Applicant
First Respondent
Second Respondent
Third Respondent
HAVING READ THE DOCUMENTS FILED OF RECORD AND HAVING HEARD THE
RESPECTIVE COUNSEL FOR THE PARTIES; THE COURT FOUND THAT:
2
[1] The Applicant had opportunities to explain to the First Respondent why it was
not possible for it to attach the specific documentation required in the published
invitation to bid. This the Applicant could have done soon after the publication
and when it submitted its bid or, at the latest, at the subsequent briefing session
which the Applicant did not attend "as it was not compulsory ", opting instead to
wait until the process is completed and the tender awarded, to then seek a
review of the proceedings . Urgency was, in my view, self-created on these
facts.
ORDER
1. The matter is struck from the roll for lack of urgency.
2. No order is made as to costs.
