‘I’ve never seen anything like this,’ says Dennis Davis of the retrenchments, which he labelled illogical

SA Airways' business rescue practitioners are in court with the government over impending retrenchments.SAA’s business rescue practitioners have received harsh criticism from Judge Dennis Davis for “faffing around” for six months.

“I have to tell you, I’ve been involved in these things since the beginning – I’ve never seen anything like this.” He said that in certain circumstances, in order to stabilise the business, BRPs may have to reduce staff immediately upon appointment. “I think what you are saying is, ‘I come in as a business rescue practitioner. I take over the temporary supervision of business and at that particular point in time I look around and I say to myself I can start retrenchment process immediately before I actually conceive of my business rescue plan.

Davis said the “whole idea of the investigation and the plan” is to “do precisely what the act intended, which is to investigate whether in fact you can save the business”.Advocate Tembeka Ngcukaitobi, representing Numsa and Sacca, said that in terms of the Companies Act, a business rescue plan should be completed within 25 days of appointing BRPs.

Setting out his argument that the appeal should be dismissed, Ngcukaitobi cited a February case where Numsa had approached the court to intervene after the BRPs began talking about reorganising routes, which they believed amounted to retrenchments.
