Broad-based Black Economic Empowerment
Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) is constitutionally mandated legislation aimed at remedying historical racial imbalances and achieving economic transformation by increasing the number of black people who participate in the South African economy. We advise on:
- Compliance with the Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment Act
- B-BBEE Codes, charters and sector codes
- Registration of major transactions with the B-BBEE Commission
- Engagement with the B-BBEE Commission
- Advice on B-BBEE Codes and scorecard
Our administrative law team advises and provides opinions on a range of administrative law issues, including on whether a decision was taken lawfully, procedurally, fairly and reasonably; conducting judicial reviews of decisions taken by public bodies (which includes decisions made in respect of public procurement and in the context of licensing, concessions or tariffs); and defending governmental and other organs of state in review proceedings.
We regularly assist clients in regard to reviews and advice in respect of broad-based Black Economic Empowerment.
