The Enforcement, Adjudication and Monitoring of Social Security Rights in Lesotho,

Abstract

Contemporary discourse on social security rights and their enforcement, adjudication and monitoring occupies a centre stage in the sustainability of any social security system of a country. This discourse has acquired an interesting but rather controversial appellation as to what an efficient social security system should look like. This paper explores the nature of the enforcement, adjudication and monitoring system of social security rights in place in Lesotho. It discusses the various mechanisms used and provided for by the law of Lesotho in this area and, evaluates their effectiveness or otherwise, in the process. It concludes by highlighting the weaknesses and strengths.
