# Parliament’s select committee on Security and Justice is calling for rigorous internal reforms within the South African Police Service. The committee has concluded its review of the police’s 2025/2026 annual report, expressing concern over the persistent audit findings raised by the Auditor-General. Material findings on reported performance information increased by 35.71-percent, from 14 findings in the previous cycle to 19. Committee chairperson Jane Seboletswe says that while it welcomes SAPS’ sixth consecutive unqualified audit opinion, financial cleanliness cannot mask severe governance, compliance and performance failures.
