Petition to the Departments of Justice and Public Works to urgently attend to the non-functioning air-conditioners in the Gauteng High Court, Pretoria.

High temperatures caused by the non-functioning of air-conditioners at the Gauteng High Court Pretoria have reached such a critical stage that an advocate recently collapsed from the heat. This incident has been widely reported by the media. You can read the article on the Pretoria News website here: https://is.gd/G5LyBs. The air-conditioning in the Gauteng High Court, Pretoria has been completely dysfunctional since last year.

The Pretoria Attorneys’ Association is organising a petition to the Departments of Justice and Public Works to urgently attend to the non-functioning air-conditioners in the Gauteng High Court, Pretoria. The situation is critical as justice cannot be dispensed under these circumstances.
