In South Africa, there is a law that only Psychologists can do evaluations. That means that it is illegal to sit someone down, get them to fill out a personality test, and then evaluate the test results to them. Only a trained Pschologist is allowed to do this.
Back in the days when I was on staff, there was a period where we had to be a bit hush-hush about the OCA tests. We could not do mass mailings of it to the general public. Every now and then things would relax and we would start broadly distributing them, but OSA would always arrive and put a stop to it. They did not put a stop to doing general testing of new people that came into the Org though.
I never liked the whole idea of doing these evaluations. Somehow it did not seem to be in the spirit of Scientology (Don't Evaluate). I also saw loads of people coming in, being told that they are Suicidal or totally irresponsible, and then leaving. In a way, I suppose that is a good point. Loads of people come in, get the eval, get pissed of and leave, and deciding never to have anything to do with Scientology again.
But the crux of the situation is that Scientology in South Africa is breaking the law on a continuous basis.
