Sounds very much like invasion of privacy. Yet another scam of our ANC government to attempt to turn this country into a communist state where the government whishes to have authority over private property.

Chapter 2 — Approval and consideration of applications
One should be able to set up a CCTV camera on one's own private property without the consent or interference of the Council, especially if the Council and law enforcement services wish to be permitted by the private owner of the camera to view footage from it if it overlooks the street or other public land. A CCTV camera is generally installed to enable one to record activities and/or people outside one's property that may endanger the person or any property on those private premises, or to view persons or activities that are suspected to have led to the harm to or loss of persons or property on or in the premises being monitored by a privately owned and installed CCTV camera and such protection of the home should not need permission. Any CCTV camera on private property should be acceptable to the Council as long as either the owner of or tenant of a property can prove that the camera belongs to the property and is not equipment that has been installed by anyone unrelated to the property for reasons unknown. Furthermore, should a member of law enforcement or the Council wish to view what has been recorded on a privately-owned CCTV camera, an appointment to do so must be arranged beforehand to avoid advantage being taken by any criminal element simply trying to use the excuse of accessing the contents of the camera as a method of gaining entry to anyone's premises.

No - so a "policeman" can come knocking on your door demanding to see video footage of what "might" have happened on the street? No! Too many corrupt individuals out there.

The government must first deal with corrupt police officers, joburg its a very dangerous place to alow police officer to have access to private cameras. We have lot static that reveled so many corrupt officers. Joburg must enjoy its rights for their privacy to be respected.

If you allow police to have access to cameras it's gone whistle blowers are will die

The suggested law or implementation is an infringement on people's private property and lives! Government stay out of private lives!

In other democrati countries such sccess rights require the approval of a judge. Police do not have these rights on their own. I think that this separation of power between executive and judicial branches of government is a very good thing.

Owing to the corruption in the RSA Government and number of illegals streaming into the country, plus under staffed law enforcement departments ,and in some cases violent and corrupt law enforcement, the South African public has been forced to involve itself in the prevention of crime through social media. We are not a communist state and such control with the introduction of this by- law, takes away the democratic right of a RSA Citizen. More important issues such as illegal land acquisition need to be addressed, rather than my neighbour being prevented from reporting they are being robbed and no one can hear or see their cry for help. All because some bureaucratic idiot was employed once again in yet another administrative department, is sitting on paperwork to approve my neighbour's camera installation. You do the crime you pay the time and if public social media can assist with this and reduce the government spending on protracted court cases then so be it.

Cameras on private property should not be forced to share footage as this could include private areas on the private property as well.

An absolute resounding NO!

Thus country is riddled with crime. The govt is completely useless at combating it. So one of the mechanisms citizens have to try and protect themselves us being taken away.

This is pure communism playing out here and I reject it entirely.
