Swaziland Environment Authority

The Swaziland Environment Authority, (SEA) is mandated to provide for and promote the protection, conservation and enhancement of the environment and the sustainable management of natural resources of Swaziland. It was created by the Swaziland Environment Act, 1992, and was transformed into a corporate body by The Environment Management Act, 2002. This latter act gives the SEA the power to halt developments that have not been adequately scrutinised for their environmental impact. It is a department of the Ministry of Tourism and Environmental Affairs.
