 Article Headline: Court orders Minister of Electricity to join the landmark #CancelCoal case as Fifth Respondent
 Abstract: In a significant development, the High Court has issued an order to join the Minister of Electricity as a fifth respondent in the ongoing #CancelCoal case. This decision follows a joinder application submitted by the applicants, citing the Minister's pivotal role in determining new generation capacity. It is anticipated that the Minister may become the official responsible for issuing any fresh determination mandated by the court   The three applicants in the landmark youth-led climate constitutional litigation the African Climate Alliance(ACA), the Vukani Environmental Justice Movement in Action (VEM) and groundWork (gW), represented by the Centre for Environmental Rights (CER) brought the joinder application on 6 September 2023, in light of the President’s  proclamation, granting the new Minister powers to determine that new generation capacity is required and the types of energy sources from which electricity must be generated.
