Dear Member,
We are pleased to advise that Fidelity ADT, Martin Hood and his legal team were successful in their bid in the Constitutional Court.
The Minister of Police’s appeal was dismissed with costs, and the judgment was thus granted in favour of Fidelity ADT.
Please see the attached judgement as received.
In essence however, those persons who are in possession of firearms with expired licences will now be able to apply for a new licence for the firearm.
We are currently studying the judgment and will in due course send out further guidance on the judgment and its implications.
