This note deals with the question whether, under the present-day South African constitutional law, members of the public are entitled to any information held by cabinet (the national executive). This question is considered with specific reference to the law of comparative jurisdictions. Two competing principles must be considered: on the one hand, the constitutional right of access to information held by the state (cabinet information in the present case) and, on the other hand, the convention of cabinet secrecy. The latter originated in English constitutional law, which might be argued to have been inherited by South Africa.

To what extent should the Convention of Cabinet Secrecy still be recognised in South African constitutional law?
