Public Finance Management Law

 Every South African should be concerned on how the public purse is utilised. We have realised that this concern should be met with relevant legal expertise on regulation and compliance that should be provided to municipalities, provincial and national governments. There are different pieces of legislation that regulates the management of public finances at municipal, provincial and national level as well as state enterprises and those who offer services to these entities.

We provide well-researched legal opinions which reflect the current legal framework to all spheres of government on the regulatory and compliance imperatives that must be observed when dealing with public finances. We particularly advise (and where necessary litigate) on procurement processes which impact public finances, conflict of interest, corrupt activities that leads to the misappropriation of public funds, duties of relevant officials regarding public finances management, wasteful and irregular usage of public finances, and the obligations of accounting officers at every sphere of government.
