Unisa Social Security Movement (USSM) is a group of students that share notes and

ideas on South Africa’s social security law. This movement argues that due to its

sensitive nature, the right to have access to social security is absolute and not subject

to any limitations. The movement further submits that because of its importance, this

right must be realised immediately. With reference to the relevant provisions of the

Constitution, briefly discuss the correctness of these two submissions.

### Analysis of the Unisa Social Security Movement's Submissions




The Unisa Social Security Movement (USSM) posits two key arguments regarding the

right to access social security in South Africa:




1. **The Right to Access Social Security is Absolute and Not Subject to Any

Limitations**.

2. **The Right Must be Realised Immediately**.




To assess the correctness of these submissions, it is essential to refer to the relevant

provisions of the South African Constitution and the jurisprudence interpreting these

provisions.
