Johannesburg - The Communication
Workers' Union (CWU) will not be deregistered by the department of
labour until an appeal on September 20, the union said on Friday.
"The department of labour was once
again embarrassed and told by the court that there was no need to
deregister the union hastily," said acting secretary general
Thabo Mogalane.
Mogalane said the court believed that
CWU's appeal should be heard quickly.
He said the notice of deregistration
had come as a surprise to the union.
While it was aware that its provincial
offices were not in compliance, it believed they were working within
a time-frame for compliance agreed to with the department.
