AI summary
The High Court in Pretoria dealt with a review application concerning the Minister of Health’s rejection of an unsigned investigation report about a North West Department of Health tender. The court recorded the background to the tender, the complaint and the report, then dismissed the application because there was no signed report before it. Costs were ordered against the applicant.
This appears to concern review proceedings, public procurement, and the treatment of an unsigned investigation report.

Without a signed report the applicant has no leg to stand on. The relief sought is not competent based on the unsigned report. It will therefore be unnecessary to deal with the other issues
Supports: plain_summary sentence 2 and 3
