ADL2601_ASSIGNMENT 01_01/2024Questions
1. Define Administrative Law.
Administrative law pertains to the realm of public law focused on overseeing governmental
administrative agencies. It encompasses the conduct of officials within these agencies, the
processes of decision-making, and the interactions between these agencies and other
branches of government, such as the legislature, executive, judiciary, as well as the public.
, 2. Discuss the meaning of an organ of state as defined in the Constitution of South
Africa, 1996 and list three examples of organs of state.
Section 239 of the South African Constitution, which is like the country's rulebook, says that
an "organ of state" can be different things. It could be a government department at the
national, provincial, or local level. It could also be any other person or group that carries out
duties according to the Constitution or laws. However, it doesn't include courts or judges.
Here are some examples of organs of state in South Africa:
The Department of Home Affairs: They handle things like immigration, issuing identity
documents, and passports.
South African Police Service (SAPS): They're in charge of fighting crime, keeping order,
and protecting people in South Africa.
The South African Revenue Service (SARS): They manage taxes and collect money to
fund the government's work.
