National Land Transport Act, 2009 (Act No. 5 of 2009)

Chapter 2 : Institutional Arrangements for Land Transport

24. Functions of Provincial Regulatory Entities

 

(1) Each Provincial Regulatory Entity must—
(a) monitor and oversee public transport in the province;
(b) receive and decide on applications relating to operating licences for intra-provincial transport where no municipality exists to which the operating licence function has been assigned, but excluding applications that must be made to the National Public Transport Regulator in terms of section 21.

 

(2) As soon as possible after this section comes into operation, the MEC must take steps to disestablish the relevant operating licensing board and to establish the relevant Provincial Regulatory Entity and transfer that board's functions to the Provincial Regulatory Entity.

 

(3) Any application concerning an operating licence or conversion of a permit to an operating licence that is pending before a provincial operating licensing board on the date that this section comes into operation, must be finalized either by that board before it is disestablished or by the Provincial Regulatory Entity after it is established, in terms of this Act and directions given by the MEC.
