SAPS Vision and Mission: A Lived Reality?

The Constitution of the Republic of South African, 1996 (Act 108 of 1996) stipulates that the South African Police Service has a responsibility to:
• prevent, combat and investigate crime;
• maintain public order;
• protect and secure the inhabitants of the Republic and their property; and
• uphold and enforce the law.
• create a safe and secure environment for all people in South Africa.
• prevent anything that may threaten the safety or security of any community
• investigate any crimes that threaten the safety or security of any community
• ensure criminals are brought to justice; and
• participate in efforts to address the causes of crime.


To fulfil in the Mission of the South African Police Service, all the members are subjected to a Code of Conduct.

The official Code of Conduct of the South African Police Service was introduced on 31 October 1997. The Code of Conduct is a written undertaking which each member of the South African Police Service is obliged to uphold, in order to bring about a safe and secure environment for all people of South Africa. Every member of the South African Police Service must make the Code of Conduct part of their code of life, principles and values.


We ask, is this an experienced reality by the people fo South Africa? Join us for the next FrankTalk Radio Dialogue as we bring South Africans and the Police together in constructive dialogue.
