Success
A few pragmatic examples of prevention strategies are detailed below. - Correct
Answer -(1) Judicial system reform
(2) Public awareness and marketing
(3) Merging existing conservation agencies into a single unified body
(4) Consolidating and rationalising conservation-related legislation
(5) Amplification of compliance management and support capacity
(6) Informal control measures
(1) Judicial system reform - Correct Answer -= natural resources crimes are not
afforded a high priority by our courts
= leads to inconsistent and insignifi cant sentences that
undermine all deterrence efforts with regard to conservation crimes.
= strategically positioned conservation crime courts or
even mobile or satellite courts should be considered.
= If those contemplating conservation crime realise that there is a good chance
that
they will be apprehended and punished swiftly and severely, conservation crime
,should become proportionately less attractive and could decrease dramatically.
= Effective administration of justice would promote deterrence and should be
factored into the compliance management
(2) Public awareness and marketing - Correct Answer -= Public awareness and
conservation-marketing campaigns are deemed invaluable specifically in reducing
the apathetic societal stereotype
= Such sensitisation and orientation will simultaneously assist compliance
management functionaries with their task and
also promote deterrence.
= School education and awareness programmes; educational reform is an
important instrument in
modifying and guiding behaviour in a specific direction.
= These awareness and marketing programmes should ideally target all segments
of society, not neglecting big business/corporations.
(3) Merging existing conservation agencies into a single unified body - Correct
Answer -= consolidation and alignment of all dedicated conservation agencies into
a single integrated conservation-minded and goal-oriented body would represent
the utopia that has long been sought in conservation circles
= The alliance of human resources capacity and expertise, coalescing financial,
administrative and operational procedures or resources, the rationalisation of
structures,
,standardisation of legislation or policy and the eradication of duplication and
fragmentation in all spheres would facilitate resolute management and promote
conservation efficiency on all fronts.
(4) Consolidating and rationalising conservation-related legislation - Correct
Answer -= overabundance of divergent, confusing and capricious conservation
legislation
in the statute books is not only undermining deterrence and creating
opportunities
for conservation impropriety, but is also unquestionably attracting criminal
elements
= Natural resources legislation has to be consolidated urgently, given the snail's
pace
at which the wheels of bureaucracy turn.
(5) Amplification of compliance management and support capacity - Correct
Answer -= Human resources and fi scal capacity are undoubtedly the most
fundamental shortcomings
as far as conservation crime in South Africa is concerned. Capacity inadequacies
are not only found in the dedicated operational conservation compliance,
scientific, logistical and support services milieus, but are also clearly present
within those organisations and entities entrusted with augmenting conservation
compliance efficacy through effective service delivery (e.g. customs and excise).
= amplification of compliance/policing/regulation capacity and resources is by no
means to be regarded as a panacea.
, (6) Informal control measures - Correct Answer -= Citizens and grassroots
organisations should be encouraged to act as informal control systems to prevent
environmental pollution by corporations
Prevention and control of illegal trade in endangered species - Correct Answer -(+)
Empowerment of rural communities bordering on game and nature reserves
(+) Educational and awareness programmes
(+) Interagency cooperation
Well-trained and adequately paid staff
(+) Effective legislation
(+) Effective law enforcement (compliance management)
(+) Establishing a computer database
(+) Allowing controlled trade in endangered species
No absolute agreement consequently exists with regard to "organised crime" due
to questions such as these: - Correct Answer -• What is a criminal organisation or
a syndicate?
• When do the criminal activities of street gangs or syndicates constitute
organised crime?
• What is the difference between a gang and a syndicate?
