  1. Public Safety Act, 1953

    Apartheid legislation in South Africa In 1953, the Public Safety Act was enacted by the South African Apartheid government Commencement date 4 March . This Act empowered the government to declare stringent states of emergency and increased penalties for protesting against or supporting the repeal of a law. This act was passed in response to the ANC s civil disobedience campaigns in particular the Defiance Campaign of 1952 instigated by Nelson Mandela , Walter Sisulu and other prominent members of the ANC . The Act included a provision that empowered the government to declare a state of emergency in any or every part of the country South West Africa included and to rule by proclamation. According to Section 3, The Governor General later, State President may make such regulations as appear to him to be necessary or expedient for providing for the safety of the public, or the maintenance of public order and for making adequate provision for terminating such emergency or for dealing with any circumstances which in his opinion have arisen or are likely to arise as a result of such emergency . Moreover, any law issued during a state of emergency could be made retrospective for four days to cover any emergency action taken by the police. The emergency regulations could suspend any act of Parliament, with a few exceptions. If the justice minister or administrator of South West Africa deemed it necessary, they could declare a state of emergency but the governor general had to approve their action within ten days. Under a state of emergency the Minister of Law and Order, the Commissioner of the South African Police SAP , a magistrate or a commissioned officer could detain any person for reasons of public safety. It further provided for the detention without trial for any dissent. Repeal The Act was repealed by the State of Emergency Act No 86 of 1995.

Training Trained telephone operator s are also usually responsible for Dispatcher dispatch ing these emergency service s. Most PSAPs are now capable of caller location for landline calls, and many can handle mobile phone locations as well sometimes referred to as phase II location , where the mobile phone company has a handset radiodetermination location system . Some can also use voice broadcasting , where outgoing voice mail can be sent to many phone number s at once, in order to alert people to a local emergency such as a chemical spill . In the United States , the county United States county or a large city usually handles this responsibility. As a division of a U.S. state , counties are generally bound to provide this and other emergency services even within the municipalities , unless the municipality chooses to opt out and have its own system, sometimes along with a neighboring jurisdiction . If a city operates its own PSAP, but not its own particular emergency service for example, city police but county fire , it may be necessary to relay the call to the PSAP that does handle that type of call. The U.S. requires caller location capability on the part of all phone companies , including mobile ones, but there is no federal law requiring PSAPs to be able to receive such information.
