# The Licence Plate Association of South Africa has accused the South African Bureau of Standards of enabling misconduct in the number plate industry. Laza alleges that the SABS failed to enforce standards, allowing manufacturers and embossers to operate outside legal parameters, while denying access to regulatory records. This accusation comes as the bureau is currently under investigation by the Department of Trade, Industry and Competition for alleged corruption and governance failures.
