The open publication of the National Register for Sex Offenders will further tighten the noose on sexual offenders and aid in the fight against gender-based violence (GBV) in South Africa.
This is according to Justice and Constitutional Development Minister, Mmamoloko Kubayi, who delivered remarks during the debate of the State of the Nation Address (SONA) on Tuesday.
Currently, the National Register for Sex Offenders is not open to the public, but is available for the public and private sector, through application, to vet whether someone is suitable to work with children and other vulnerable groups.
