SAFA President, Danny Jordaan, said the ethical committee and integrity office would help to strengthen the governance of SAFA. 

" If the South African football is organized, in the context of CAF and  FIFA. Therefore we have to align ourselves and be consistent with what is happening in FIFA and CAF. As South Africa, if we want to be the leading federations on the continent, then we must start leading from every front." Jordaan said. 

SAFA Ethics Committee Chairperson, Judge Sissy Khampepe, said protecting the integrity of SAFA is what has attracted her to take this position.

 "The ethics committee comprised of two chambers; the investigatory chamber and the adjudicatory chamber. Its role is to ensure that the integrity and reputation of SAFA as an institution is safeguarded, and that is what attracted me to accept this position."

The officer of the integrity committee, Alex Abercrombie, said the duties of an integrity office would be there to protect the integrity of the game.

" We will look at things such as match manipulation. We're working with National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) on several issues. the point that I'm trying to make here is that referees, players, and people who are sport bearing syndicate should know that we're  watching them."  Alex said.
