In the period under review, the NCACC considered and decided on a number of applications under the Regulation of Foreign Military Assistance Act (Act 15 of 1998). The decisions of the NCACC in this regard are contained on the table attached below. It needs to be understood though that in the consideration of these applications the NCACC sometimes calls for the submission of additional information which is not always positively met. In such an event, the NCACC therefore does not make a final decision.
