780 2006(2) SA 32 (T) Paragraaf 24.<br />

381<br />

Die regter het vervolgens <strong>die</strong> bepalings <strong>van</strong> Artikel 4 <strong>van</strong> PAJA oorweeg, en beslis<br />

dat, alhoewel <strong>die</strong> administrateur wat <strong>die</strong> administratiewe handeling uitvoer wat <strong>die</strong><br />

regte <strong>van</strong> <strong>die</strong> publiek nadelig kan beïnvloed en hy/sy <strong>die</strong> stappe moet oorweeg om<br />

prosedurele billikheid te bewerkstellig, <strong>die</strong> vereistes <strong>van</strong> <strong>die</strong> Wet wel in dié geval<br />

vereis dat deelname <strong>van</strong> <strong>die</strong> publiek sekerlik moes plaasvind.<br />

Oor Artikel 4(1) <strong>van</strong> PAJA is <strong>die</strong> hof <strong>die</strong> volgende mening toegedaan :<br />

“I may well add that in terms of section 4(1) of PAJA where an administrative<br />

action adversely affects the rights of the public, an administrator, being the<br />

first respondent in the instant case, in order to give effect to the right to<br />

procedurally fair administrative action, must decide, amongst other things,<br />

whether to hold a public inquiry in terms of subsection 2 or to follow a notice<br />

and comment procedure in terms of subsection (3) or where the administrator<br />

is empowered by any enabling provision to follow a procedure which is fair but<br />

different, to follow that procedure. However, because of the nature of the<br />

matter, in my view, the first respondent and correctly so, considered<br />

consultation. In a way, subsections (3) and (4) of section 10 envisage some<br />

sort of participation by interested or aggrieved parties.” 780<br />

Na aanleiding <strong>van</strong> <strong>die</strong> meriete <strong>van</strong> <strong>die</strong> saak was <strong>die</strong> hof <strong>van</strong> mening dat voldoende<br />

konsultasie met <strong>die</strong> publiek plaasgevind het en dat <strong>die</strong> aansoek om <strong>die</strong><br />

naamsverandering ter syde te stel, <strong>van</strong> <strong>die</strong> hand gewys word.
