Stricter rules for pool owners could be on cards
http://www.iolproperty.co.za/roller/news/entry/stricter_rules_for_pool_owners
Stals says all the pools on their books have to be safeguarded in terms of the current regulations, which means they must be maintained and fenced off and children should not be able to climb over the fence. All outdoor pools will be required to have a pool cover or must be fitted with a floating pool alarm when the pool is not in use.

Interesting to see that pool covers will be compulsory, even when the pool must be enclosed and fenced to restrict access. Existing home owners with pool will need to register their pool, so take note.
