Trade union Solidarity reached a settlement with the basic education minister and the presidency at the National Economic Development and Labour Council (Nedlac) over the Basic Education Laws Amendment (Bela) Act this week.  On October 1, Solidarity initiated a dispute process through Nedlac to seek authorisation to undertake a protected protest to express opposition to sections 4 and 5 of the act. The sections, whose implementation President Cyril Ramaphosa delayed when he signed the Bela Act into law three months ago, deal with language and admission policies at public schools. Gauteng Education MEC Matome Chiloane said that he rejected the recent agreement with regards to the BELA Act by the minister of basic education and her partners.  Thabiso Tema spoke with Werner Human, Operational head of the Solidarity movement.
