The Labour Appeal Court’s decision to interdict National Education Health and Allied Workers Union (NEHAWU) from continuing with their strike means that the South African Police Service (SAPS) has no option other than to act if these strikes continue. The DA therefore calls on the SAPS to act urgently and prevent any NEHAWU member from obstructing the operation of any hospital or clinic. Any death caused as a result of a delay in medical services will be on their hands and they together with the union bosses must be held responsible.
