Abstract
Two of the challenges facing South Africa are crime and victimisation. This article
explores the effectiveness of governmental bodies in the whole-of-government approach
to ensure accountability and oversight over safety and security. Significantly, the
article highlights the prevalence of weaknesses in the decentralisation of safety and
security powers and responsibilities. Recommendations are offered to help improve
and bridge these gaps.
