12.1.2Framework for the Development of School Policy on ELRC Collective Agreements
Resolutions are decisions taken by legally constituted structures such as the ELRC and school governing bodies or the State and Teacher Unions. Resolutions have to comply with government legislation and are therefore legally binding on the parties concerned. Sometimes a resolution can be more binding than the Act.
- All ELRC Collective Agreements can be downloaded from their website at http://www.elrc.co.za.
