Abstract

The Maccsand series of cases started with an application by the City of Cape Town in the High Court for an order interdicting and restraining Maccsand (Pty) Ltd (hereafter Maccsand) from conducting mining activities until the authorisations in terms of the (Western Cape) Land Use Planning Ordinance 15 of 1985 had been granted. Maccsand and the Minister of Mineral Resources (hereafter the Minister) lodged an appeal in Maccsand (Pty) Ltd and Another v City of Cape Town, and Maccsand eventually approached the Constitutional Court in Maccsand (Pty) Ltd v City of Cape Town for relief.
