The governance self-check.

Ten questions, two minutes, a straight answer. Answer honestly: the check is only as useful as your candour.

Your answers stay on this page. Nothing is recorded, stored or sent to us while you answer; the score is calculated in your own browser. Only if you choose to send us your result below is anything transmitted.

1.Could you lay your hands on your latest signed policies within ten minutes?
2.Are your statutory registers (directors, shareholders or members, beneficial interests) complete and up to date?
3.Does the minute of your board’s most recent significant decision show what was decided, and why?
4.Are your CIPC filings current: annual return filed, beneficial-ownership information up to date?
5.Does every person acting for the organisation know, in writing, what authority they hold and where it ends?
6.Do your board and its committees work from approved charters or terms of reference?
7.If the Information Regulator asked tomorrow, could you produce your POPIA documentation: privacy notice, PAIA manual, operator agreements?
8.Are your key contracts signed, filed, and diarised for their renewal and notice dates?
9.Has the board reviewed, within the last year, a register of the laws and regulations that apply to the organisation?
10.If your chairperson resigned tomorrow, would the organisation know exactly what happens next?

This self-check is a general indicator, not an audit or legal advice. It draws on the Companies Act, King V and common statutory obligations, but your organisation’s exact requirements depend on its form, sector and founding documents.
