POPIA RE-REGISTRATION OF INFORMATION OFFICERS and SUBMISSION OF PAIA REPORTS

Dear employer 

As previously communicated, the Information Regulator published a notice to all private and public bodies, reminding them to:

• register/re-register their Information Officers and Deputy Information Officers, as the Information Regulator has a new website and e-services platform; (even if an employer has, prior to May 2024, registered with the Information Regulator, all private- and public bodies are required to do so again on the new system);

and

• in compliance with the Promotion of Access to Information Act (PAIA), submit their annual PAIA reports.

To access the Information Regulator’s new website and eServices platform, follow this link.
