Understanding the Companies Tribunal: Your Free Alternative to Court with Head of Communications Dr Simukele

Loading player...
In this episode, we unpack the role of the Companies Tribunal — an entity of the Department of Trade, Industry and Competition established under the Companies Act No. 71 of 2008.

We explore how the Tribunal provides a free, fast, and fair alternative to the courts when it comes to resolving company-related disputes. From adjudicating cases to offering alternative dispute resolution (ADR), the Tribunal plays a critical role in ensuring transparency and access to justice for businesses across South Africa.

Join us as we break down what they do, how they operate, and how you can make use of their services.
