Before an individual can be appointed a child protection officer by the court:
The individual must undergo and pass a polygraph test certified, conducted, and interpreted by a qualified polygraph-competent sergeant in the South African Police Force.
A certified copy of the individual’s criminal record, showing no convictions, must be submitted to the court.
If an individual has no criminal record, a certified copy of the DC7/14.2 document, certified by a Commissioner of Oaths, should be submitted to the court.
