In their April 26 judgment, justices Lee Bozalek and Elizabeth Baartman said it would be “inappropriate for the court to prescribe to the Minister the form of any procurement process to be adopted”. However, their ruling makes it plain that processes followed until now have been neither rational nor lawful. Making the process less toxic will require full transparency and accountability. However, it will also hinge on whether nuclear advocates are able to justify – economically and technically – the technology’s inclusion in the country’s future electricity mix.
