    The President has appointed the following members to the National Consumer Tribunal:

    1. Prof Joseph Mandla Maseko (Executive Chairperson)
    2. Laura Anne Best (Deputy Chairperson)
    3. Lulama Andisa Potwana

    President Zuma congratulated all the members and wished them well in their new responsibilities.

    The National Consumer Tribunal, which is an independent adjudicative entity, was established in terms of the National Credit Act 34 of 2005 (the NCA).

    The Tribunal derives its mandate from the NCA and as such, hears all sides of a case before making a decision. A decision by the Tribunal has the same status as one made by a High Court.
