            <description><![CDATA[Introduction The relationship between contractual employment rights and statutory labour protections continues to present complex legal challenges within South African law. Although the Labour Relations Act 66 of 1995 (“the LRA”) establishes a comprehensive framework regulating dismissals and unfair labour practices, it does not displace the contractual foundation upon which employment relationships are built.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Introduction  Security measures at gated sectional title complexes often require visitors to provide personal information before access is granted. While these practices are intended to promote safety, they also raise important questions about privacy and compliance with the Protection of Personal Information Act 4 of 2013 (POPIA). The Information Regulator’s draft code on the processing of personal information at gated access signals a move towards clearer rules for how visitor information should be collected, used, stored and protected.]]></description>

            <title>When trust becomes a target: Understanding business email compromise</title>
            <link>https://www.polity.org.za/article/when-trust-becomes-a-target-understanding-business-email-compromise-2026-07-01</link>
            <description><![CDATA[In today’s digital business environment, email remains one of the most important communication tools for organisations. However, its widespread use has also made it a prime target for cybercriminals. One of the fastest-growing and most financially dangerous cyber threats is Business Email Compromise (BEC), a form of fraud that relies on deception and social engineering rather than malicious software. By impersonating trusted individuals or organisations, attackers manipulate victims into transferring money, disclosing confidential information, or granting access to sensitive systems. As BEC incidents continue to rise globally and in South Africa, businesses and individuals must understand how these scams operate, the legal implications of such attacks, and practical steps to reduce their risk of becoming victims. What is Business Email Compromise?]]></description>

            <title>What happens if a parent refuses access? A South African family law overview</title>

            <description><![CDATA[When parents separate, the arrangements relating to a child’s care and contact should be guided by one overriding principle: the child’s best interests. South African law no longer focuses on parental “custody” and “access” in the traditional sense, but on parental responsibilities and rights, including care, contact, guardianship and maintenance. In practice, however, many parents still refer to “access” when describing one parent’s right to spend time with, communicate with, or maintain a relationship with a child. Where one parent refuses the other parent contact without lawful justification, the consequences can be serious. A refusal may amount to a breach of a parenting plan, settlement agreement or court order, and may also undermine the child’s right to maintain a meaningful relationship with both parents. The legal framework]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[The operation of a private company often involves a delicate balance between commercial objectives and interpersonal relationships among shareholders.
