What Can the Commission on Gender Equality Do?

The CGE has the power to:

  • Order a person to attend a hearing
  • Order a person to give evidence or produce any document
  • Enter a person’s home or a workplace, if this is necessary for an investigation

The CGE can request any level of government to assist them with an investigation or with any of their functions.
