ASSIGNMENT PREVIEW
Part A: Justify and explain (with references) why the statement is either True or False [40 marks. Each answer is worth 2 marks]
1. The most significant aspect of the case of Economic Freedom Fighters v Speaker of the National Assembly 2018 (2) SA 571 (CC) (EFF II) is that the
judiciary has too much political power and intrudes into the executive domain.
2. As a member of the uMkhonto we Sizwe party, former President Jacob Zuma has announced his intention to campaign against the right of LGBTIQ+
people to a family life. His opinion is that the ‘legislation supporting same-sex marriage lacks support from the majority of SA’. This scenario is an
example of the principle of subsidiarity.
3. When carefully analysed, the recent case of United Democratic Movement and Others v Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd and Others [2023] ZAGPPHC 280;
005779/2023 (5 May 2023) – the “loadshedding” case – is an instance of judicial over-reach.
4. The counter-majoritarian dilemma has no relevance to South African Constitutional Law. It is simply a convenient excuse that politicians invoke when
the judiciary is counter- revolutionary.
5. The horizontal distribution of power in South Africa is exactly how multi-sphere governance works in South Africa.
