c). Provincial Conservation Authorities have established game donation and loan policies that they are implementing. The Biodiversity Economy strategy requires provincial authorities to upscale these programmes and contribute to increasing the herd of wildlife in the control of previously disadvantaged individuals. The provincial authorities utilise their own policies, procedures and criteria for implementing the game donation framework policy. The focus of the Department’s support is therefore on infrastructure and capacity building.
