The Labour Court on Tuesday ruled against the decision of the Minister of Department of Basic Education and her Director-General Bobby Soobrayan to unilaterally withdraw Collective Agreement 1 of 2011.

The South African Democratic Teachers Union together with other unions approached the Labour Court to have the termination of the Agreement declared unfair and unlawful.

Sadtu Secretary General Nkosana Dolopi said the Department failed to file their answering affidavit on time after the matter was set down for hearing on 13 March 2013.

Dolopi added that they are preparing for the full trial that will take three days.
