(a & b) With regard to the DPCI, Provincial and Component Heads are afforded the opportunity to make a choice as to procure a vehicle that will be most suitable for the specific environment including for declared priorities. DPCI has procured high end, high performance vehicles which will suit the specific high priority investigations.
The Division Detective Service, specifically the Stock Theft and Endangered Species unit, are the custodians of investigations on level one to three and it is necessary to have a suitable fleet and not necessarily a high powered fleet. It is important to be able to reach poaching scenes to start a proper investigation. The fleet of vehicles utilized currently fulfils the needs as it was identified with the input of all role-players. A fleet of the suitable vehicles have been delivered and is already being utilized in the Kruger National Park. The needs are monitored throughout and if the fleet needs to be increased it will be done. The current fleet does meet the planned requirements.
(c) With regard to the DPCI, the following vehicles have been allocated to the Organised Crime environment, specifically Endangered Species.
