PAIA Manual
Welcome to our PAIA Manual. The PAIA Manual was prepared in accordance with Section 51 of the Promotion of Access to Information Act, Number 2 of 2000 (the “Act”) and the Protection of Personal Information Act, Act No 4 of 20131 (“PoPI”).
The aim of PAIA, is to foster a culture of transparency and accountability in public and private bodies. It does that by giving effect to the right of access to information and actively promoting a society in which the people of South Africa have effective access to information to enable them to more fully exercise and protect all of their rights and also to realise South Africa’s goals of an open and participatory democracy.
