JOHANNESBURG - The High Court in Pretoria will rule on whether the Information Regulator’s application to interdict the publishing of matric results in newspapers is urgent.
The regulator insists the education department has not obtained the necessary consent from all pupils and is therefore in contravention of the Popi Act.
The department doesn’t believe this is an urgent matter, and that it is acting in line with an existing court order that allows the publishing of results.
