ABOUT PSIRA
Our Mandate
The Mandate of PSiRA derives from the Private Security Industry Regulation Act 56 of 2001.

The Executive Management Committee is currently under the Directorship (Chief Executive Officer) of Mr. Manabela Chauke. The Director reports directly to the Council.
In terms of PFMA, Council is the accounting authority of PSiRA. The entity is also listed in Schedule 3A to the PFMA. Furthermore, Council has the authority to lead and exercise general control over the performance of the functions of PSiRA and of the activities of the persons appointed by it to perform its functions. Council delegates the management of the day-to-day operations of PSiRA to the Director appointed in terms of the Act. A clear and comprehensive delegation of authority is in place to assist with decision-making and furtherance of the objectives of PSiRA.
ROLE OF THE COUNCIL
In terms of the PSiR Act, the role of the Council includes among others, to take steps to achieve the objects of the entity contemplated in section 3 of the Act, to ensure performance of the duties of the Authority, and to oversee and exercise general control over the performance of the functions of the Authority and of the activities of the persons appointed by Council.
