(2008-04-23) This from Julian Pokroy Immigration Law Attorneys...
In terms of Section 19(1) of the Immigration Act number 13 of 2002 this special category or work permit was created when the Immigration Act came into operation in April 2003.
In terms of Section 19(1) of the Act the Minister of Home Affairs is obliged to consult on an annual basis with the Departments of Trade and Industry and Labour and Education in order to formulate what has become known as the National Critical Skills List.
This Quota List spells out specific professional categories and specific occupational classes which are, by their very nature, required urgently in South Africa.
The Quota List specifies the specific occupational class or category, on the one hand, then spells out the need for professional registration in that category (where applicable) and then couples this to a numerical quota for that category.
Applications for work permits in this category are then dealt with in a different manner to other types of work permits.
