QUESTION 1

There are several key components of the South African legislation that could be changed or
amended to improve environmental management. These changes would help to ensure that
environmental protection and sustainability are given the priority they deserve, and that the
country can effectively combat the growing environmental challenges it faces. Some of the key
components that could be considered for change include the National Environmental
Management Act (NEMA), the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) regulations, and the
legislation governing the mining and energy sectors.
