Labour Arbitration
This highly acclaimed guide, first published in 2002, has been thoroughly revised and updated. Practical advice on all stages of arbitration, from the pre-arbitration stage to the issuing of the award are covered as well as the basic legal principles concerning disputes over alleged unfair dismissal, the basics of the law of evidence and how to prepare for and present a case at arbitration. In addition to this there are sections on the pitfalls of the law of evidence, applications for condonation and reviews - these often being the very issues on which the Labour Court so often sees applicants in review applications being tripped up. Furthermore, a discussion on unfair labour practice arbitrations has been included. No labour law practitioner or trade union representative should be without this book.
VAT Treatment of 'Imported Services'
Section 11(2)(k) of the Value-Added Tax Act 89 of 1991 provides for the zero-rating of a supply of services where the services are physically rendered outside the Republic. In this monograph, the author analyses that provision and other relevant sections of the VAT Act, with a view to determining whether it is possible to zero-rate 'imported services' falling within the ambit of section 7(1)(c) of the Act where work is performed outside the Republic but the product of that work (for example a computer program) is supplied to a South African consumer for use within the Republic otherwise than in the making of taxable supplies. The meaning of the word 'rendered' in section 11(2)(k) is determined in the light of the governing rules of statutory interpretation, after which the controversial decisions in ITC 1812 and Metropolitan Life Ltd v Commissioner for South African Revenue Service are subjected to detailed and penetrating analysis in order to assess whether section 11(2) as a whole can, contrary to those decisions, apply to 'imported services'.

New Companies Act Unlocked
From 1 May 2011 company law in South Africa was dramatically altered: the 1973 Act which had governed companies for the life-times of most business people and lawyers in South Africa was replaced by the Companies Act of 2008, as amended in March 2011. A new era of company law dawned, and with it a host of new concepts, rights, remedies, obligations, procedures and sanctions were introduced. These fundamentally affect the way that every business operates and the advice and practice of every lawyer, accountant or other professional adviser. This book, the first to cover the new Act and the new regulations, provides the hand-holding, the insight, and the understanding that business and their advisers require in order not to be wrong-footed by the new regime.
International Tax
This book is not merely a new edition, but a complete and significantly expanded rewrite. It comprises over 900 pages of expert and in-depth exposition of this complex subject that has become so important in the modern global economy. Already established over four previous editions as the pre-eminent work on the subject it is a 'must-own book' for all students and practitioners of tax, whether from a legal, business or accounting perspective. Professor Lynette Olivier and Michael Honiball are without peer in their understanding and clarity in this highly specialised field. Five new chapters have been added on: Taxation of individuals; Taxation of Companies and Dividends; Taxation of Partnerships; Cross-border VAT; and Interpretation of Statutes.
CCMA
The fourth edition of this established and handy guide to the Rules of the CCMA reproduces the newly published Guidelines on Misconduct Arbitrations in terms of the Labour Relations Act, updates the law and commentary on the Rules, and also includes a useful Practical Guide for an Unfair Dismissal Claim in the CCMA. Furthermore, the book provides valuable insurance against tripping up on technicalities. It explains the Rules of the CCMA in non-legal language. Each Rule is fully reproduced and then explained in non-legal language, in line with the original aim of the CCMA - making it accessible to the layperson and freeing it from the legal technicalities that bedevilled the old Industrial Court. The book is intended both for commissioners and professionals, as well as for the non-professional user of the CCMA, as a guideline on how to tread in what is often perceived as the province of lawyers. It is therefore not a technical legal text, with references and citations.
