dc.concourt.synopsis Application from the Supreme Court of Appeal against findings that the Constitution did not impose a duty to bargain and findings of constitutional validity of regulations made in terms of the Defence Act. It was held that where legislation had been enacted to give effect to a constitutional right, a litigant was not entitled to bypass that right and rely directly on the constitutional right. Regulations were enacted to give effect to s. 23 of the Constitution which did impose a duty to bargain. It was therefore not necessary to determine whether s. 23(5) of the Constitution confers a justiciable duty to bargain. The Court held that SANDF may not impose pre-conditions for bargaining nor can they unilaterally withdraw from the Military Bargaining Council. The Court considered the constitutionality of each regulation in question and made a ruling on them. Majority: O'Regan J (unanimous).
