What this means
This document is a webpage from the Border Management Authority (BMA) explaining the rationale behind its establishment. It states that Cabinet approved the creation of the BMA in June 2013 to address coordination failures in South Africa's multi-agency border management system. The BMA is intended to unify oversight of border activities across multiple government departments. The only opportunity presented is the ongoing public mechanism to report suspicious border activity.
