- 12. The purpose and aims of the statutory measure is to compel the parties set out herein to keep records and render returns to the South African Table Grape Industry (SATI). This is necessary to ensure that continuous, timeous and accurate information relating to the products as defined, is available to all role players. Market information is deemed essential for all role players in order to them to make informed decisions. By prescribing the keeping of records with the rendering of returns on an individual basis, market and production information for the table grape industry can be processed and disseminated.
The establishment of the measure should assist in promoting the efficiency of the marketing of products. The viability of the table grape industry should thus be enhanced. The measure will not be detrimental to the number of employment opportunities or fair labor practice. Any information obtained will be dealt with in a confidential manner and no sensitive or potentially sensitive client specific information will be made available to any party without the prior approval of the party whose rights are affected.
The measures will be administered by SATI, a company incorporated under Section 21 of the Companies Act, 1973 (Act 61 of 1973). SATI will implement and administer the measure as set out in the Schedule on behalf of SAT, a company incorporated under Section 21 of the Companies Act, 1973 (Act 61 of 1973). - Coded list of objectives
