'Tinkering' won't save Info bill from Concourt challenge
NEWSWATCH: Constitutional law expert Pierre de Vos said yesterday that tinkering with the bill will not save it from being challenged in the Constitutional Court, reports Mail & Guardian. Meanwhile, it has been reported that the Libyan rebels may join the search for the body of slain SA freelance photographer, Anton Hammerl, reports IOL, which also, in IOL Property, reports that it is selling off Newspaper House in Cape Town's CBD.

- Mail & Guardian: 'Bedrock of the info Bill is problematic'... Only when Cosatu threatened to take action in the Constitutional Court did the ANC ease off steamrolling the bill through Parliament, but even the tinkering they are doing now doesn't go far enough. It needs a complete rethink or - better still - it needs to be chucked in the bin.
- IOL: Libyan rebels join search for Hammerl's body... South Africa is apparently negotiating with both the Libyan government and the rebels to find Hammerl's body. Here's hoping his body is found and returned to SA.
The date and venue for Hammerl's Johannesburg memorial service has been set: Saturday, 2 July 2011, at His People church, 20 Seventh Avenue, Parktown North. The service will start at 11am and will be followed by a wake. Further details about the wake to come. The London memorial will take place at "The Journalists' Church" St Brides, Fleet Street, EC4Y 8AU, in early September. Further details to follow - please keep checking the Free Photographer Anton Hammerl Facebook page for updates.
- IOL Property: End of an era as Newspaper House goes on the market... Newspaper House, home to home to the Cape Times and Cape Argus, and which many Capetonians consider a landmark in the city centre, is to be sold, Independent Newspapers Cape GM Ishmet Davidson announced yesterday.
