The minister needs to give his blessing to a plan to sell the low-cost state-owned airline to an undisclosed bidder.
The Department of Public Enterprises has applied for leave to appeal a ruling ordering Minister Pravin Gordhan to provide a yes or no answer to the sale of low-cost airline Mango to a private buyer.
"This is not a stalling tactic or an attempt to undermine the need to bring finality to Mango’s business rescue process". In early September, the North Gauteng High Court in Pretoria ordered that Gordhan must decide whether Mango could be sold to an undisclosed bidder within 30 days.The court ruled that Mango's business rescue practitioner could assume that the sale could go ahead if no decision was made.
