Provincial Mandate

Gauteng derives its provincial safety mandate from the constitution, national legislation, and the various strategies it has adopted.

Currently the provincial mandate is to ensure that Gauteng is a safe and secure province. Responsibilities of all government structures in the safety, security and justice arena in the province include monitoring of agencies, implementation of social crime prevention initiatives, management of traffic, educating citizens about public safety and improving the relationship between communities and Law Enforcement Agencies (LEAs). Other responsibilities of the structures include policing, law enforcement and prosecution of offenders.

This mandate was re-enforced by the adoption of the Gauteng Safety Strategy by the Executive Council of the Gauteng Province. The Gauteng Safety Strategy is premised on eight pillars, and these are:

Improving the quality of policing.

Encouraging community participation.

Promoting social crime prevention.

Integrity management.
