Civil organisations ask High Court to set aside enviro authorisation for MMSEZ

Civil society organisations Herd Nature Reserve, Centre for Applied Legal Studies and Living Limpopo have approached the Polokwane High Court to review the environmental authorisation granted to the Musina-Makhado special economic zone (MMSEZ) in Limpopo. The organisations believe the approval process was fatally flawed, saying the provincial government granted itself environmental authorisation while ignoring severe impacts of a “coal-fuelled megaproject” on water security and the climate crisis.
