Responses to Parliamentary Questions 2280
Question 2(a) What is the what (a) is the total number of persons recorded by her department who are living below the food poverty line in the Northern Cape,
- There are approximately 354 306 households in the Northern Cape.
- Of these 354 306 households, 139 395 households have an income of less than R624 per month.
- This constitutes 39.34% of the total number of households in the Northern Cape.
- The average household size in the Northern Cape, in 2020, was 3.7 people per household.
- Therefore, approximately 515 760 people in the Northern Cape, were living below the food poverty line of R624 per month in 2020.
2 (b) are the reasons for extreme poverty in the specified province and
- The Northern Cape is a vast and rural province with the smallest population in the country.
Job opportunities are scarce in the rural areas, leading to people flocking to urban areas, in the hopes of finding employment. This leads to more mouths to be fed while the chances for employment are slim. Unemployment is also a big contributing factor towards the burden of poverty – according to the Quarterly Labour Force Survey of Statistics South Africa, 1st Quarter, the Northern Cape had an unemployment rate of 24.9%.
2 (c) where is poverty the most extreme in the province? NW2697E
In order to obtain information on the most extreme incidences of poverty in the Northern Cape, the only available data on income poverty, broken down to lower levels, is the Census 2011 information from Statistics South Africa. This information is also only available in income categories, i.e. No Income, R1 – R400, R401 – R800, etc. For the purpose of this report, the afore-mentioned categories were used to obtain information on income poverty; thus, people earning R800 or less per month. A total of 697 761 people earned R800 or less per month in 2011 – approximately 60.89% of the total population of 1 145 862 people in the Northern Cape as per the Census 2011 information.
The table below gives a breakdown of the number of people earning less than R800 per month per local municipality, in the Northern Cape according to the Census 2011 data available.
