In the matter between:	
THANDISILE BUSINESS SERVICES (PTY) LTD			Applicant

And

THE DEPARTMENT OF HOME AFFAIRS			First Respondent

LIVHUWANI TOMMY MAKHODE N.O.			      Second Respondent

KUSILE FACILITIES MANAGEMENT				Third Respondent

JUDGMENT/ ORDER
HAVING READ THE DOCUMENTS FILED OF RECORD AND HAVING HEARD THE RESPECTIVE COUNSEL FOR THE PARTIES; THE COURT FOUND THAT:

[1]	The Applicant had opportunities to explain to the First Respondent why it was not possible for it to attach the specific documentation required in the published invitation to bid. This the Applicant could have done soon after the publication and when it submitted its bid or, at the latest, at the subsequent briefing session which the Applicant did not attend “as it was not compulsory”, opting instead to wait until the process is completed and the tender awarded, to then seek a review of the proceedings. Urgency was, in my view, self-created on these facts.

ORDER
            
1.	The matter is struck from the roll for lack of urgency.
2.	No order is made as to costs.
