Constitutional Court Statistics For The 2006 Term

Abstract

This note provides descriptive statistics on the work of the constitutional court of South Africa in 2006. The statistics are organised into tables with the method of constructing each table given in the text that follows. The objectives and methods of this annual set of statistics are more fully laid out in the 995 edition of the SAJHR. The statistics are organised into two parts. Part I covers decisions in which the court produced a written judgment, while Part II addresses those applications that were considered in chambers and then dismissed without a judgment being given.
