Legislation & Regulation

Legislation & Regulation is one of the key priority (focus) areas for SAIA, as identified by the SAIA Board.

The SAIA Board Committee: Legislation & Regulation deals with various important issues and includes SAIA Board members, as well as high-level co-opted members from the industry.

Last year I reported that the regulations under the Insurance Laws Amendment Act of 2008 had still not been finalised although they were being awaited. During the year under review a great deal of work has been done on those regulations by the Legislation and Regulations Committee of the Board, managed by Refilwe Moletsane, the Deputy CEO of SAIA. However, the regulations under the Insurance Laws Amendment Act, although having been thoroughly debated by the sub-Committee, have still not been generally released for comment. So this process still has a long way to go before completion. The same position also applies to the regulations on the medical schemes’ demarcation where delays have taken place in the consultative process between the FSB and the National Treasury.

Both of these areas are vitally important for our members, so we are anxious to further the negotiations so that the consequences can be understood by the industry and then dealt with. Karen Naidoo, our legal manager who joined us during the year, will now have the responsibility of dealing with these issues.

This area of the our activities will be an extremely busy one during this year but the SAIA Management and our ever-willing committee members will be able to handle the task.
