National Education, Health and Allied Workers Union (NEHAWU) and Another v National Home Builders Registration Council (NHBRC) and Others (2024-146579)

National Education, Health and Allied Workers Union (NEHAWU) and Another v National Home Builders Registration Council (NHBRC) and Others (2024-146579) [2024] ZALCJHB 512; [2025] 5 BLLR 525 (LC) (23 December 2024)

The Court found that the appointment of the Second Respondent as acting CEO was in direct contravention of the NHBRC's Acting Policy, which explicitly excludes Council members and temporary employees from acting appointments. The Council and Minister lacked authority to waive these provisions, as there was no empowering clause in the policy.
