BusinessLive reports that Rosemary Hunter will be approaching the Constitutional Court after three earlier court rulings found against her in a matter involving her former employer, the Financial Services Board (FSB), and the cancellation of thousands of pension funds.
Last week, the Supreme Court of Appeal dismissed with costs her leave to appeal against two high court rulings. The former deputy pension funds registrar said she would now approach the Constitutional Court for leave to appeal. The pension funds cancellations project led to the FSB cancelling 6,757 pension funds between 2007 and 2013 on the grounds that they had ceased to exist because they no longer had properly constituted boards. In court papers, Hunter argued that the cancellations project was "unlawful" and may have caused fund members to suffer loss. Hunter will be seeking a court-supervised probe into the cancellations.
