Both parties agreed to the extension of his term as Commissioner for a period of two years.<\/p>\n<p>The decision was premised on the understanding that the extended term will afford SARS the opportunity to further embed the SARS strategic intent and transformation on which the organisation embarked upon in 2019. The country as a whole can attest that measurable progress has been made to position SARS as a credible tax and customs authority that plays a pivotal role in helping government to build a capable state for the social and economic development of all South Africans. Commissioner Kieswetter said that \u201cThis effort must be intensified and sustained\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The term extension also provides the necessary time to continue the existing investment to strengthen the SARS leadership bench and prepare for an orderly leadership transition in the organisation over the next 2 years.<\/p>\n<p>Commissioner Kieswetter said that \u201cI can assure all South Africans that, with your support, SARS will spare no effort and continue to work hard to ensure that the vision of a Smart, modern SARS with unquestionable integrity, admired by all is achieved.
