Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>National Treasury released updated government tender regulations for comment under the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act on Friday, ending the uncertainty that had put government tenders on hold since mid-February.<\/p>\n

On 25 February National Treasury issued a circular stating that the issuing of tenders would be “held in abeyance” after the Constitutional Court dismissed an appeal by the Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana to overturn an earlier court judgment which had set regulations signed in 2017 aside.<\/p>\n

The case was brought by Afribusiness NPC, arguing that the 2017 regulations were unfair because they allowed for “pre-qualifications” to be set for tenders. For example, state institutions could declare that only black-owned businesses qualified to tender.<\/p>\n

The regulations gazetted on Friday restore the system that existed before the 2017 iteration of the rules and do away with the pre-qualification rules that Afribusiness NPC contested in court.<\/p>\n
