ActionSA welcomes court ruling against Cape Town tariffs

# ActionSA has welcomed a High Court ruling declaring parts of the City of Cape Town’s 2025/2026 tariffs unlawful. The judgment found charges linked to cleaning levies and fixed water and sewage tariffs invalid. ActionSA criticised the DA-led administration, warning residents now face legal costs. The party urged the City not to appeal, but to revise its tariff structure and prioritise affordability, saying the ruling offers an opportunity to ease financial pressure on households.
