SHADOW REPORT 2017
The 2017 Shadow Report, compiled by the South African History Archive (SAHA) for the Access to Information Network (ATIN), evaluates compliance with the Promotion of Access to Information Act, 2000 (PAIA) between 1 August 2016 and 31 July 2017. Based on 408 requests, the report finds widespread non-compliance by public bodies, particularly regarding statutory timeframes and the high rate of deemed refusals. It highlights systemic issues such as the misuse of request transfers, inadequate reasons for refusal, and the lack of transparency in state surveillance and environmental reporting.
