Ngomhla zingama-23 kuNhlaba, i-ACA yakhipha i-Bulletin 2/2022, yelula umnqamulajuqu wokuhambisa ukugcwalisa okuyisibopho kuze kube nguJanuwari 1, 2023. Ukufakwa kwe-IP kuzocutshungulwa ngoHlelo Oludidiyelwe Lokuphatha Lokulwa Nokwenziwa Komgunyathi (AIMS).Lokhu kusho ukuthi kusukela ngalolo suku, noma ubani ongenisa izimpahla kanye nabanikazi bamalungelo empahla yobuhlakani kufanele agcwalise irekhodi ku-ACA ukuze uthole lawo malungelo.

Ngaphandle kokubheka imvelaphi yezimpahla, zonke izinkampani kufanele zirekhode amalungelo empahla yempahla ephawulwe kwamanye amazwe.Imikhiqizo engaqediwe kanye nezinto zokusetshenziswa ezingenalo uphawu zikhululekile.Abaphula umthetho bazoba ubugebengu, abangajeziswa ngenhlawulo kanye nokugqunywa ejele iminyaka efika kweyi-15.

Uma irekhodi le-IP liphumelele, i-ACA izokhipha uphawu lwesitifiketi ngendlela yedivayisi emelene nomgunyathi.I-ACA ingase ibambe futhi ichithe okuthengiswayo uma itholakala ingenalo ithuluzi elinjalo lokulwa nomgunyathi.

Inkokhelo esemthethweni yerekhodi le-IP ngu-$90 ekilasini lokuqala kanye no-$10 esigabeni ngasinye esilandelayo sophawu lokuhweba noma idizayini yezimboni.Izinhlobo ze-IP ezingenawo amakilasi amaningi zingu-$90 into ngayinye.Amarekhodi e-IP azocutshungulwa ngoHlelo Oludidiyelwe Lokuphatha Lokulwa Nomgunyathi (AIMS).Ngokungeziwe ekurekhodeni, i-AIMS izophinde ihlinzeke ngezinsizakalo ezinjengokuvuselela ukugcwaliswa kwamafayela, ukuguqulwa kwemininingwane, ukubuyiswa kolwazi olugciniwe, kanye nokwenza lula ukubhaliswa kwe-ejenti.Ingosi ye-AIMS ifinyeleleka yibo bonke abathintekayo njengabanikazi be-IP nama-ejenti abo, abathengi, abangenisi, ngisho nabasolwa emacaleni omgunyathi.

Noma yiliphi irekhodi eliphelele ohlelweni lwe-AIMS lisebenza izinyanga eziyi-12 futhi lizobuyekezwa yi-ACA zingakapheli izinsuku ezingama-30 kufakwe isicelo sokuqala.Amarekhodi asebenza izinyanga eziyi-12, futhi izicelo zokuvuselela kufanele zithunyelwe okungenani izinsuku ezingama-30 ngaphambi kokuphelelwa yisikhathi ngenkokhelo yokuvuselela engu-$50.Uma umnikazi we-IP enquma ukusebenzisa i-ejenti ukuphatha inqubo yokurekhoda, kufanele aqinisekise ukuthi umenzeli omqokile ubhalisiwe ne-ACA.
