The Protection of Personal Information (POPIA) Act
This Act is expected to come into force in mid-2018. Universities and other entities will be required to become compliant within 12 months of the Act coming into force (i.e. by mid-2019). The USAf Office of the CEO will prepare member institutions for the law’s imminent enactment and render support to them in a manner that it did with the Consumer Protection Act in 2014/2015.
