The purpose of this letter is to lodge a complaint with both Chapter Nine Institutions about the manner in which the executive and legislative branches of government are going about remedying the defect in the legislation struck down in J251 order 5, namely that the SA Police Service Amendment Act of 1995 (as amended in 2008 following the disbandment of the Directorate for Special Operations, also known as the Scorpions) is inconsistent with the Constitution and invalid to the extent that it fails to secure an adequate degree of independence for the Hawks.
