The reply of the South African Police Service [SAPS]:

5. [1]   In order to determine an accurate resource requirement on local level [police stations], the key environmental data and other related information are gathered and captured on a systematically designed web-based application system utilised for this purpose, named the Station Post Requirement [SPR] system. The system has been developed to calculate the number of posts per level required to perform the duties associated with police stations.
