OUR EFFICENCY DETERMINES OUR PERFORMANCE
Tribunal Hearings and Decisions Targets not met in 2011/2012 Hold hearings and adjudicating matters brought before the Tribunal. Promote and maintain competition within South Africa through the implementation of the Competition Act. OUTPUT ANNUAL TARGET PER PERFORMANCE INDICATOR ACTUAL OUTPUT - 2011/2012 DEVIATIONS Large mergers and reconsidered mergers 75% of set-down notices sent within 10 business days of the filed merger 71% Delays occur because we attempt to hear uncontested mergers on Wednesdays and the earliest Wednesday may fall after the 10 days. In some instances parties request that their matter be set down on a specific date. Procedural matters 85% of orders issued within 20 business days of the last hearing date 74% In some instances reasons are issued with orders in procedural matters. These matters involve complex points of law and often require extensive research time before arriving at a decision. If decisions are complicated then more detail is often required when writing reasons this causing delays.
