South Africa: Commission appoints new Competition Tribunal Chair

By  |  August 5, 2019

The Commission welcomes the appointment of Ms Mondo Mazwai as the Competition Tribunal chairperson by President Cyril Ramaphosa.

Ms Mazwai takes leadership of the Competition Tribunal at a crucial time for competition policy and competition law enforcement in South Africa. Competition authorities celebrate 20 years of existence, and the Competition Act has been amended to focus on outcomes, specifically to contribute to growth and inclusivity in the economy.
