The National Environmental Management Act, No. 107 of 1998 ('NEMA') came into operation in January 1999. NEMA's primary purpose is to provide for co-operative environmental governance by establishing principles for decision-making on all matters affecting the environment. NEMA also establishes procedures and institutions that will promote public participation in environmental management.

We advise on the following:

•  Compliance with environmental legislation

•  Assessments and audits
