The Intelligence Services Act (also National Strategic Intelligence Act) was legislation revamping the intelligence agencies of the Republic of South Africa, passed by the National Assembly on 2 December 1994. The legislation established new intelligence agencies, dismantling those used to enforced the Apartheid regime. New institutions were established under a system designed to respect and protect civil liberties, promote transparency and de-politicize South Africa's security agencies.
