Description
Data based on records of permits issued by the South African Department of Forestry, Fisheries, and the Environment to conduct activities on listed invasive species restricted under the NEM:BA A&IS Regulations of 2014 as amended 2016.
This is based on the file <Copy of Official AIS Permit Register (31 Aug 2019).xlsx>, though noting that several permits were issued on 5 Sep 2019 and one on 30 Nov 2019 (the latter appears to be a typo)
Compiled for the purposes of the report: SANBI and CIB 2020. The status of biological invasions and their management in South Africa in 2019.

Where appropriate the rationale for issuing a permit is as per the wording of the regulations of 2014 (see below for the full citation)
Each row represents a permit for a particular species for a particular activity. Permit numbers can cover multiple taxa
The original data-set has details of the applicant and their contact numbers, who the permit was handled by, and the method by and date on which the permit was sent to the permit holder, these have been redacted
Note there can be multiple permits issued to the same permit holder for the same speceis for the same purposes with the same start and end date
In cases where two permits were issued to the same applicant and one of which was for research, both were deemed for research even if it was not specified as such
For enquiries contact: invasives@sanbi.org.za; and for more details of the status report see: http://iasreport.sanbi.org.za

although noting in most cases it will be more appropriate to contact the actual department itself.
