Albie Sachs´ view of the Constitutional Court

In a recent interview, former Constitutional Court judge Albie Sachs, in explaining his role in setting up the Constitutitional Court, expressed his love for the court and his former colleagues. ‘We were from such different backgrounds, philosophically, culturally and professionally, and were all motivated to try and make operational sense of this beautiful document we’d produced. I don’t think there’s another court in the world which had debates like we had to get better quality for our Constitutional Court.’
