Hot from court... Renewals out!
Good news!
1. Sec 24 and 28 of FCA declared unconstitutional.
2. Parliament given 18 months to amend FCA.
3. All firearms issued ito the FCA are valid until the Constitutional Court has made a determination.
4. Respondent ordered to pay costs.

Expired licences still valid !
It has just been ruled that Sections 24 and 28 are unconstitutional
All expired licences are thus valid until Parliament rectifies the legislation within the next 18 months.
Well done to all those involved and thank you for the many, many hours of work.

Does that mean licenses will now never expire?

We don't know that yet. Sections 24 and 28 will have to be amended by parliament. None of us have seen the wording of the court order yet and most of us would probably make a hash of interpreting it anyway.
