A
draft law allowing for the establishment of an main authority to control South
Africa's borders will be on Parliament's agenda after the August polls.
The
Border Management Authority Bill was recently tabled in the National
Legislature. Currently, various departments are involved in securing the
country's borders.
The proposed legislation aims to pull them all together
under one body to close any gaps in security.
Cabinet approved the bill in
September 2015, which aims to address inefficiencies in the state's ability to
secure the country's ports of entry.
