During this era, the unit was mainly used for area force protection, search and cordones as well as stock theft control assistance to the rural police.
Over the years several commando units and regiments, such as Hillcrest, Munitoria, Regiments Pretorius as well as 2 Regiment Noord-Transvaal were amalgamated with Regiment Schanskop.
In December 2002, the name "Tshwane Regiment" was approved to be in line with the area where the Regiment is situated.
The remaining commando units not amalgamated into the new Army Reserve were disbanded after a decision by South African President Thabo Mbeki to disband all Commando Units. [1] [2] The Commando system was phased out between 2003 and 2008 "because of the role it played in the apartheid era", according to the Minister of Safety and Security Charles Nqakula. [3]
