Fana Nalana

Fana Nalana SC is a prominent South African advocate known for his legal expertise in employment law and constitutional matters. Recently, he represented the Minister of Labour and Employment, Nomakhosazana Meth, in a Pretoria high court case defending the constitutionality of the Employment Equity Amendment Act's numerical redress targets. Nalana argued that the minister's ability to set these targets was a legitimate exercise of her authority aimed at promoting affirmative action and addressing historical inequalities in the workplace. His legal arguments sought to counter claims of unfair discrimination raised by the Democratic Alliance, emphasizing the need for flexibility in how companies implement these targets.
