Comments on the National Qualifications Amendment Bill 2016 (Jan 2017)

USAf surmises that the primary purpose of this draft Bill is to name and shame people who use bogus qualifications or claim qualifications they do not have to advance their careers. If enacted in its present form it will impose substantial and unreasonable additional burdens on employers, on education providers and on SAQA. The drafting is opaque in many places, and would need significant revision.
