SAQA's jurisdiction

The functions of SAQA, and the ambit of its authority, are set out in Section 13 of the National Qualifications Framework Act 67 of 2008. Any person or body considering taking legal action, and citing SAQA as a respondent thereto, in circumstances where SAQA is not the decision-maker of the impugned decision, is required to have regard to the jurisdiction. SAQA should only be cited if it has a material and sufficient interest in the outcome of the legal action
