Question NW2352 to the Minister of Sport, Arts and Culture
29 June 2023 - NW2352
Myburgh, Mr NG to ask the Minister of Sport, Arts and Culture
What (a) number of places, sites and/or objects have been (i) identified, graded, and assessed for possible declaration and (ii) have been declared nationally by the Heritage Protection Unit as national heritage resources in the past five financial years in each case and (b) are the relevant details of each specified site?
Reply:
Part of the mandate of the South African Heritage Resources Agency (SAHRA) is to identify and investigate the possible declaration of places and objects that are of cultural heritage significance. Section 27 (3) of the National Heritage Resources Act no 25 of 1999 (NHRA) allows for any member of the public to identify and nominate a place for such investigation, which SAHRA may prescribe the format and procedures for. Further to this Section 7 of the NHRA manages the heritage resources of South Africa in the 3 tiers of government based on the significance of the resource. Significance is assessed against the criteria set out in Section 3 (3) of the Act.
Once SAHRA has received a complete nomination, the significance of the resource is assessed and tabled at the Grading and Declarations Review Committee to determine whether the significance of the resource meets the criteria for national declaration (i.e., Grade 1).
Should it be determined that the resource is not of national significance, the nomination is deferred to the relevant Provincial Heritage Resources Authority for assessment at a provincial level. Should it be determined that the resource is of national significance, SAHRA will commence with the declaration administration, which includes the public notification process where all relevant stakeholders are informed of SAHRA’s intent to declare the resource. Stakeholders are allowed a minimum of 60 days in which to submit comments regarding this.
The final recommendation for the declaration of the resource is made to the SAHRA Council via the Grading and Declaration Review Committee, Executive Committee, and the Heritage Resources Management sub-committee of the Council.
Once SAHRA's Council has approved the declaration, a notice is published in the Government Gazette declaring the resource.
