Synopsis:
The Court discharged a provisional costs order made in the main judgment requiring the City of Cape Town to pay both the applicant and respondent's costs in the Constitutional Court. The Court substituted an order directing the City of Cape Town to only pay for the first respondent's costs in the Constitutional Court and not the applicant's costs on the basis that the City had already commenced investigating allegations of fronting in compliance with the High Court order. However, the first respondent received costs as they would not have had to bring this matter to the High Court if the City had complied with their obligation to investigate. Judgment: Mogoeng J (unanimous).
