This is an interlocutory application, brought by the respondents in the main application, for leave to file a fourth set of affidavits in the main application. The main application is an application to review the decision of the respondents to transfer the applicant, a prisoner, from a facility in Upington to a facility in Kimberley. 2 2. In order to avoid any confusion, the parties herein will be referred to as in the main application. 3. The applicant, in the main application, obtained an interim interdict by way of a rule nisi, issued on the 27 February 2015 and confirmed on the 28 August 2015, preventing the said transfer pending the outcome of the said review and ordering that the costs of the interim interdict be costs in the review application. The review application was duly filed. The respondents opposed the review and an answering affidavit was filed on their behalf. 4. In broad terms the basis of the applicant’s review of the said decision was based on the contention that moving him from Upington would take him away from his family. Also that he was studying architecture through an external institution and that he had a mentor who was able to visit him in Upington periodically, but that he did not know any architects in Kimberley and that he would not have access to a mentor to assist him with his studies.

JUDGMENT DEEMED TO HAVE BEEN HANDED DOWN ON 30 JULY 2020. 2 BRAUCKMANN AJ INTRODUCTION [1] The Judge President of this, the newest Division of the High Courts of South Africa had this to say about access to justice in the context of plaintiffs issuing summonses against home owners (“consumers”) in matters where the banks called up the security they held over immovable property in the Mbombela circuit Court (as it then was), whilst the debtors resided , and the immovable properties were situated closer to the Middelburg circuit Court: “Our Constitution guarantees everyone the right of access to courts which are independent of other arms of government. But the guarantee in section 34 1 of the Constitution 2 does not include the choice of procedure or forum in which access to courts is to be exercised. This omission is in line with the recognition that courts have an inherent power to protect and regulate their own process in terms of section 173 of the Constitution3 to which I will turn in a moment.

In the High Court of South Africa (Eastern Cape Division, Grahamstown)
IN THE HIGH COURT OF SOUTH AFRICA (EASTERN CAPE DIVISION, GRAHAMSTOWN) Case No. 3917/17 In the matter between WINGS PARK PORT ELIZABETH (PTY) LTD and MEMBER OF THE EXECUTIVE COUNCIL FOR ENVIRONMENTAL AFFAIRS AND TOURISM, EASTERN CAPE PROVINCIAL GOVERNMENT AND OTHERS Plasket J: [1] Wings Park Port Elizabeth (Pty) Ltd (Wings Park) applied to review a decision to refuse it environmental authorisation for the construction and operation of a private airfield in the Kragga Kamma area of Port Elizabeth. It has cited the MEC for Environmental Affairs and Tourism in the Eastern Cape provincial government (the MEC) as the first respondent, and three persons opposed to its proposed development as the second, third and fourth respondents. Only one of them, Mr Raoul van der Merwe, the second respondent, opposes the application, and he does so together with the MEC. Background [2] Wings Park was incorporated for the purpose of developing and operating a members- only airfield for recreational pilots. To this end, it purchased land in the Kragga Kamma area, to the west of Port Elizabeth. This area is described in the papers as a peri-urban area. It purchased this land, according to Dr Russell Phillips, one of Wings Park's directors (and the deponent to the founding affidavit), after a 'detailed assessment of other available options', all of which were found to be unsuitable for one reason or another. [3] The need for the new facility arose as a result of Wings Park's shareholders, all of whom are recreational pilots, finding that it had become increasingly difficult to pursue their chosen past-time from the existing facilities in Port Elizabeth – the Port Elizabeth International Airport and the Progress Aerodrome.
