The management of the University of the Free State (UFS) is continuing its consultation process with different stakeholders on the Main Campus in Bloemfontein today (Wednesday, 28 October 2009).
This consultation process is a result of a decision by Prof. Jonathan Jansen, Rector and Vice-Chancellor, to continue discussions around the Reitz matter, which was announced earlier this week.
The first meeting took place with Adv. Mothusi Lepheana of the Human Rights Commission on behalf of the five workers. Adv. Lepheana represents the five workers, as ruled by the court on Monday, 26 October 2009.
During this discussion it was agreed that further processes on the way forward will be announced shortly after the Human Rights Commission has completed its work regarding certain legal issues within the case.
Meetings with other stakeholders, including staff and students, will be taking place continuously.
