        Bidvest  Protea  Coin,  the  security  service
        provider  for  the  estate,  was  recently
        reappointed for 36 months after an extensive
        tender  process.  We  are  pleased  to  confirm
        that several additional benefits were offered,
        including  training  all  officers  in  riot  control,
        thereby  enabling  the  members  on  duty  at
        any  given  time  to  be  kitted  and  equipped
        whenever the need arises.

        All  reaction  officers  and  management  who
        are  firearm  competent  will  also  receive
        advanced tactical training. This will allow for
        a higher level of competency, which is sorely
        needed during any crisis that may arise. Public
        relations  and  other  in-service  training  will
        also take place on a regular basis to further
        enhance service delivery capacity.

        Access  control  is  always  relevant,  especially
        at  this  time  of  the  year.  Please  ensure  that
        contractors,  domestic  workers,  gardeners
        and  others  are  registered/re-registered  in
        time  and  with  the  correct  legally  required
        documentation.


        Golf  cart  registrations  will  now  be
        administered  by  the  Security  department.
        Please  note  that  the  process  will  entail  the
        following:
        •  Auditing of existing registered carts/
          numbers.
        •  Confirmation of existing allocated numbers
          to ensure that owners keep their number,
          strictly before the due date.
        •  New numbers will then be allocated on a
          first-come, first-serve basis.
        •  Annual registration fees will then be due.
