7. Request procedures
Any request for access to a record listed must be made on the prescribed form. A copy of this form is attached as Annexure A.
Requests for access must be made to the head of the organisation listed above and must be sent to one of the contact points listed.
When requesting access to a record it is important to include enough information for us to be readily able to identify both the record and the person making the request. It is also important to provide us with your contact details and the manner in which you would like us to contact you.
In order for a requester to have access to a record listed in this Manual, such access must be necessary for the requester to protect or exercise any right. It is therefore necessary to identify the right or rights which you wish to protect or exercise and explain fully why access to the record is required in order to do this.
If you have been authorised to make a request on behalf of another person it will be necessary to provide satisfactory proof of such authority.
8. Fees
In the case of requests where the requester is seeking to access a record which contains personal information about the requester ("a personal requester"), no fee is payable.
In all other cases an initial fee of R50 will be levied. This can either be submitted with the original request or we will send the requester a notice stating that this fee is required before we begin processing the request. The requester may lodge an application to the court against the tender or payment of the request fee [see s 54(3)(b) of the Act].
Once a decision has been made as to whether the request will be granted or refused, we will inform the requester on the prescribed form.
If the request is granted then a further fee will be levied in respect of searching, reproduction and preparation and for any time that exceeds the prescribed hours.
A list of the fees, which have been set by the Government, is attached as Annexure B.
