The Promotion of Access to Information Act, No 2 of 2000 (“PAIA”) was enacted on 2 February 2000. The purpose of the legislation is to give effect to the constitutional right of access to information held by any private or public body that is required for the exercise or protection of the requester’s rights.

This document serves as the PAIA Manual of the TFG Retirement Fund which has been submitted to the South African Human Rights Commission. The manual provides a reference as to the records held and the process which needs to be followed to access such records.
