LCP 4801 ASSINMENT 2 SEMESTER 1 2022 With reference to recent international and municipal case law, discuss critically the extent to which international law developments are reflected in the South African Diplomatic Privileges and immunities Act 37 of 2001. (15) Ito DIPA: S7 1. Any agreement whereby immunities and privileges are conferred to any person or organization in terms of the Act must be published by notice in the Gazette. 2. The minister may, if it is not expedient to enter into an agreement as contemplated 3. And if the conferment of immunities and privileges is in the interests of the republic, confer such immunities and privileges on a person or organization as may be specified by notice in the Gazette. Therefore the basic rule = immunity is granted by means of an agreement and is reciprocal, but provision is also made for the Minister to grant immunity as long as there has been enough notice.
