CASAC: Court to balance Pres Ramaphosa's irreparable-harm claims against Parliament's constitutional duties.

President Cyril Ramaphosa's legal team has argued at the High Court in Cape Town that misconduct without evidence of acting in bad faith, does not automatically equate to impeachment. The President wants the Parliamentary Impeachment Committee process suspended pending the review of the Section 89 Independent Panel report, that found that he has a prima facie case to answer over the Phala Phala matter.  The committee is the result of a May Constitutional Court ruling that the National Assembly acted irrationally when it voted against the implementation of the report and that impeachment proceedings should be instituted against the President. Sakina Kamwendo spoke to  Lawson Naidoo the executive Secretary of the Council for the Advancement of the South African Constitution.
