MMUSI MAIMANE | SAPS is poorly led and disconnected from the communities it is supposed to serve.

Fixing it requires decentralised policing, by devolving police powers to provinces, regions and municipalities. Subject to national standards and accountability, these provincial, district and local governments will be able to raise their own police forces made up of permanent officers and well-trained community volunteers.

We will introduce measures to significantly improve police training, for both new and existing personnel. This will include firearms competency, advanced driving skills, hostage negotiation and de-escalation skills, advanced investigation skills, evidence handling, bureaucratic procedures, racial sensitivity awareness and legal training aimed at upholding the Constitutional rights of both citizens and suspects.
