The Institute for Economic Justice (IEJ), #PaytheGrants (#PTG), and the Socio-Economic Rights Institute (SERI) held a press conference on Friday, 24 January 2025, to discuss the historic judgment in the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant court case. The judgment is a resounding victory for fairness, dignity and constitutional rights, directly and indirectly impacting millions of lives.
The judgment found the procedural barriers that have been put in place to prevent eligible persons in desperate need from accessing the SRD grant are unlawful. In addition, the court agreed with our challenge to the rolling back of the grant in terms of the low and arbitrary value and means-test threshold. We argued that this contradicts the government’s constitutional obligation to progressively realise (advance) the right to social assistance within the maximum available resources.
