Lekota, Mr M to ask the Minister of Transport

What plans did he put in place to remedy the (a) financial, (b) administrative and (c) governance difficulties currently being experienced by the Road Accident Fund?

Reply:

The Road Accident Fund (RAF) has put the following plans in place to remedy the (a) financial,

In the longer term the design of the system of road accident compensation must change to address the fact that the existing system is unaffordable, with income not matching expenditure. To this end the RABS Bill, which is currently before the Portfolio Committee on Transport, will address the future financial viability of road accident compensation by ensuring a balance between funding and benefits. In the interim, the RAF has implemented a Cash Management Strategy to ensure that available funding is distributed in an equitable and fair manner. This has since evolved to cash management in the ordinary course of business, which is reviewed in response to the business environment. The RAF ensures that it communicates with service providers to ensure they are kept abreast of developments where necessary. The RAF seeks to ensure that any funds that are not committed due to general savings or delays in procurement, are allocated to the settlement of claims, where possible. The RAF has engaged with stakeholders such as National Treasury and the Department of Transport to ensure awareness, to present status updates and to seek solutions. In addition, the RAF has sought to implement measures to minimize the interruption caused by attachments of the RAF’s bank accounts.

(b) administrative and

The existing system of road accident compensation is administratively complex. Fault has to be proven and benefits are not defined, which results in delays in establishing liability and the quantification of claims, often resulting in disputes and protracted litigation, in which the intermediaries have a direct and substantial financial interest. The RABS Bill addresses the shortcomings by, inter alia, providing for defined benefits, on a no-fault basis, paid directly to beneficiaries, in a structured manner, ensuring wider cover, especially to the poor. The RABS Bill further seeks to reduce the administrative complexity inherent in the current system which will see less involvement by intermediaries and more money reaching the intended beneficiaries of the system.

In the interim, the RAF addresses improved administration through, inter alia, the RAF’s Annual Performance Plan for the 2018 - 2019 financial year, which addresses the RAF’s administrative challenges by, amongst others, providing for: initiatives aligned to efficient processing of claims; initiatives aligned to providing accessible services: initiatives aligned to effective financial management; initiatives aligned to optimising ICT functionality; initiatives aligned to improving people management; initiatives aligned to RAF transformation; and initiatives aligned to an assured control environment.

(c) governance difficulties currently being experienced by the Road Accident Fund

The previous Board was dissolved by the Minister of Transport and an Interim Board was appointed to address governance challenges. The process to appoint a permanent Board has commenced. The process to appoint a CEO re-commenced two months ago.

  1. Statistics on direct claims lodged prior to December 2012 are not available, as stand-alone direct claims units were only established throughout the Road Accident Fund (RAF) during the 2012 -2013 financial year. From December 2012, statistics on direct claims were were reported on separately from other claims. The following information regarding the number of claims that have become prescribed in the hands of the RAF (claims lodged and, or, prosecuted personally by a claimant who elected not to use the services of an attorney or elected to terminate the services of their attorney) since 1 December 2012 for each month of each year according to (a) percentage and (b) absolute numbers (total) from the year 2012 up to and including the latest statistics for 2018;

2) the overall reasons, amongst others, for the prescription of the claims in each month, are claims that prescribed in the following circumstances: while awaiting the judgment in the case of Mvumvu and Others v The Minister of Transport and the RAF (Case CCT 67/10); awaiting the completion of medico-legal reports by medical experts; delays in obtaining confirmation of appointments for assessments for medico-legal reports; delays in obtaining completed medical reports from hospitals; awaiting necessary information from claimants or service providers; files not sent to Regions by consultants prior to prescription of the claim; administrative issues such as incorrect registration, miscommunication between the regions; where direct claimants have subsequently elected to instruct an attorney and summons is not issued before prescription and where claimants failed to provide correct contact information, or contact information subsequently changed and the claimant failed to inform the RAF;

3) The RAF has implemented a Direct Claims Policy with effect from 15 February 2016. The purpose of the Direct Claims Management Policy, amongst others, is to regulate the internal management of Direct Claims to ensure that the rights of Unrepresented Claimants are protected; to ensure that the risks to the RAF are managed; and finally, to manage conflicts of interest that may arise. The Direct Claims Policy provides for consequence management in the event of non-compliance.

(1)Whether he can give an indication of the expected and actually realized income regarding the Gauteng e-toll system for each month from 31 December 2013 to date; (2) what type of road user made payments through corporate and individual road users for each month during the same period respectively; (3) what number of e-tags that are recorded have been activated and deactivated for each month during the same period; 4) what is the total (a) amount of legal costs spent on issuing summonses to road users thus far and (b) outstanding debt to the e-toll system for each month of the specified period; (5) whether any consideration is given to reissue summonses; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, (a) what amount has been budgeted for this, (b) what number of persons or institutions will be sued in this regard and (c) on what date will this take place?

Reply:

  1. Please see Table 1 below for the expected (forecast) versus realized (actual) income.
  2. Payments are made by an account holder who assumes responsibility to pay the account for the registered vehicles, which can be an individual, a corporate, or a combination. The person/entity that sets up the account does not complete a “field” to indicate if it is a corporate or individual user. As a result, the SANRAL toll system does not record whether a vehicle is registered (or owned) by an individual or a corporate user and the information requested cannot be directly extracted from the toll system. Should more details be required the Member of Parliament is welcome to visit SANRAL Head Office in Pretoria.
  3. Table 2 below provides, for each month, the number of tags that have been activated and deactivated from December 2013 to date. The table does not reflect the tags registered prior to the December 2013 date, such as the tags that were already in use on the Bakwena route. Tags are deactivated for various reasons, which include the following:
  • Movement of tag to a new vehicle
  • Movement of vehicles and tags between accounts, e.g. Public Entity and Key accounts
  • Deregistrations, etc

b) What:

i) Programmes and

All the programmes mentioned in response to question (a) above have been offered continuously over the past three (2016/2017, 2017/2018) financial years.

ii) Number of programmes offered in the past three financial years.

In addition to SANRAL’s conventional and RRM projects (80 in number), 83 Community Development projects were initiated over the past three (2016/2017, 2017/2018) financial years and are in various project stages (2015/2016, 2016/2017, 2017/2018).

c) How:

are the small enterprises identified to whom such programmes are offered and?

  •  

a) Where many SMMEs are available, use is made of tests called the Learning Ability Battery (LAB) of tests to select the best candidates. These tests assess the candidates’ literacy, numeracy and entrepreneurial ability. This technique is mainly used on projects in large urban areas such as Tshwane.

b) Following a resource audit and liaison with the Project Liaison Committee, Targeted Enterprises are identified from the Designated Groups from the vicinity of the project as per the PPPFA regulations in the rural areas.

  •  

c) Provision for the utilisation and development of SMMEs is allowed for in all SANRAL contract documents and project types.

ii) is the success of such programmes ascertained and

a) SANRAL keeps record of every SMME that is contracted or sub-contracted on SANRAL projects.

b) SANRAL can thus track on how many contracts a specific SMME worked on, over what period, and monitor growth of the SMME by its ascension up the CIDB grades where the lowest grade is 1 (entry level) and the highest grade is 9.

This is the measure of success used by SANRAL. The programmes are however not without challenges and SANRAL’s new transformation policy seeks to address some of the shortcomings that have been identified in previous interventions.

d) (i) Budgeted and

a) Training is a component of conventional, RRM and CD projects and varies between 0,1% and 2% of the contract value, depending on the project category.

b) Skills transfer (coaching, mentoring and guidance) are budgeted in several items which forms part of a contract and is not reported separately.

c) Note that the value of the work done by SMMEs and is not included in a. and b. mentioned above.

(a) What number of status reports were (i) requested by the Railway Safety Regulator from the Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa (Prasa) and (ii) issued by Prasa in each month (aa) in the past three financial years and (bb) from 1 January 2018 to date, (b) what number of maintenance reports were (i) requested and (ii) issued, (c) what number of other reports were (i) requested and (ii) issued and (d) what were the reasons in each instance where reports were (i) not issued or (ii) issued late?

Reply:

  1. Reports are requested in line with the Safety Management System (SMS) and this entails one (1) report per year. Reports are submitted per discipline, i.e. Perway, Level Crossings, Stations, Electrical, Signalling and Telecoms. The status of the submission is outlined as per the attached annexure.
  1. See attached annexure
  2. See attached annexure

(aa) See attached annexure

(bb) For 2018/19, information was not available or PRASA Rail was awaiting Regional inputs. The Railway Safety Regulator has advised that reports would be submitted by 30 September 2018.

  1. (i) & (ii) See attached annexure
  1. (i) & (ii) See attached annexure
  1. (i) & (ii) Reports were requested. However, due to PRASA’s internal challenges with a lack of continuity in various areas, reports were not submitted. Furthermore, it should be noted, for the same reason that PRASA is lagging in providing the RSR with the requested information, the RSR has now made the reports requirement of the safety permit which was recently issued to PRASA.

NW3270E

Reply:

1.(a) (i) The previous consultants forming part of the N2 Wild Coast Consortium comprised of Hawkins Hawkins Osborn, Stewart Scott International and Sauders and Wium. They were involved with the original N2 Wild Coast Toll Road PPP concept design and proposal. This was in the late nineties.

(ii) The 112km greenfield section of the N2 Wild Coast toll road has subsequently been divided into 9 packages for detailed design and construction. As with the Mtentu and Msikaba bridges, the consultant’s appointments for these packages were procured through an open tender process. The outcome of this process resulted in appointment of the consulting firms as per the table below. As can be seen, the two big bridges were awarded in 2003 while the rest were awarded from 2 years ago.

(b) Please see the award values in Table 1 below.

Nolutshungu, Ms N to ask the Minister of Transport

(a) On what basis was the route for the N2 Wild Coast toll road selected, (b) what factors were taken into consideration when the selection was made, (c) were there any other alternative routes that were considered for the toll road and (d) what are the reasons that the alternative routes were not chosen?

Reply:

(a)The route was selected on the basis of a best-case scenario taking into consideration various combinations of factors that generally get analysed during the route determination process. This generally includes trade-offs, minimising impact, maximising benefits and avoiding certain risks.

(b) The factors included construction and operational costs, which are heavily influence by the terrain of the chosen alignment (i.e. shortest river crossings, avoiding steep gradients, etc), economic impacts (i.e. shortest most direct route to reduce user costs, etc), environmental impacts (avoiding environmental sensitive area or reducing impact to minimum, etc) and social impacts (i.e. number of people to be resettled, employment opportunities, etc).

(c)Numerous alternatives were investigated and considered during the initial scoping study. These were taken through a public participation process and were narrowed down to a total of 6 alternatives for the detailed Environmental Impact Assessment specialist studies, public participation process and associated reports. For more details on these alternatives please see the detailed reports on the SANRAL website (www.sanral.co.za) under Major Projects>>N2 Wild Coast Toll Road.

(d)The route finally given a positive Record of Decision by the Department of Environmental Affairs through the EIA process offered the best trade-off of all the competing factors and impacts between all the alternatives considered. The details are captured in the reports referenced above.

(1)Is the SA National Roads Agency Ltd (Sanral) receiving funding from the National Treasury for the N2 Wild Coast toll road; if so, what amount; (2) is Sanral borrowing funds for the N2 Wild Coast toll road; if so, (a) from whom, (b) what amount will be borrowed and (c) what will be the toll charged on the specified toll road?

Reply:

1. Yes, since 2011 the upgrading of the existing sections of the N2 Wild Coast project between East London and Port St Johns via Mthatha has been funded through SANRAL MTEF budget allocation. In the current SANRAL MTEF allocation an amount of R2.055 billion has been specifically earmarked for N2 Wild Coast project.

2. No, all the funding for the upgrading of existing portions of the route as well as the initial construction costs of the greenfield section are being funded from SANRAL MTEF budget allocation. As per the Hybrid funding model toll funding will only be utilised for future maintenance, operations and upgrading.

(a) No funds have been borrowed at present,

(b) The amount to be borrowed will be finalised as part of the public Intent to Toll process to be initiated within next 6 months,

(c) Toll charged will be determined as part of public Intent to Toll process to be initiated within next 6 months.

Alberts, Mr ADW to ask the Minister of Transport

(1) Whether, with reference to his reply to question 2055 on 29 June 2018, it has been made public in the meantime that the municipal councils of Ventersdorp, Ethekwini, Tlokwe, Midvaal and all jurisdictions where Total Client Services Ltd (TLC) operates as service provider on behalf of the municipal authority, have ignored the appointment of an agent (a proxy) and issue fines and summons directly to the owners of motor vehicles, causing perplexing consequences; (2) whether he is taking steps against the authorities and the service provider on the strength of evidence that, in this regard, the National Road Traffic Act, Act 93 of 1996, is violated by them in the manner specified; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details; (3) whether the regulation that stipulates that a motor vehicle license has to be renewed within 21 days after it expires is still applicable and whether it has been amended in any way; if not, (a) whether any amendment is envisaged in future and (b) what are the full reasons for this; if so, what (i) is the new regulation and (ii) are the full reasons for the amendment?

Reply:

(1) The issuance of road traffic related fines directly to the owner of the motor vehicle is not in line with the provisions of section 341 of CPA read with the regulation 336 of the National Road Traffic Regulations, 2000. In most instances the relevant prosecutors withdraw the charges as the notice was not properly issued. The Department will engage with the Road Traffic Management Corporation to advise the authorities to issue fines in accordance with the prescripts of legislation.

(2) The matter has not been brought to the attention of the Department, however we will be engaging with the Road Traffic Management Corporation to ensure that such practice is discontinued.

(3) Yes, it is still applicable.

(a) The Department is not considering any proposed amendment of the regulation at this moment.

(b) Based on the reply provided in (a) above (i) and (ii) falls away.

(c) (i)(ii) Please see attached working paper for amounts paid back and still owing.

(d) The employees agreed to pay back the money over a period ranging from 4 to 24 months

(e) The 2015/16 overpayment relates to the upskilling of traffic officers as per collective agreement 1 of 2015 between RTMC and organised labour. The collective agreement excluded senior inspectors from payment of an upskilling benefit however 24 names of senior inspectors were incorrectly included in the list of officials entitled to the benefit.

This mistake was identified after payment and senior inspectors were informed of the erroneous payment and repayment arrangements made.

In 2016/17, 17 employees were overpaid as a result of resignations subsequent to the salary payment date which is the 15th of each month. These overpayments were recovered from the leave pay-outs.

In this period an allowance due to the one official was incorrectly calculated resulting in overpayment. This was identified and the official made arrangements to repay the money.

In 2017/18, 16 employees were overpaid as a result of incorrect calculation of their 13th cheque.

(f) No interest was charged.

The current RSR Debt Recovery Policy makes provision for recovery of overpayments for salaries, allowance and other related payments. The recovery of 2015/16 bonus overpayments was in line with the Debt Collectors Policy, and full consultations of employees has been concluded, as required. Recovery of the overpayment amounts for bonusses paid to executives during the 2015/16 financial year period, had commenced in March 2017. Recovery from other employees commenced in September 2017, in accordance with Section 9.6.2 of the RSR Debtor Management policy, which stipulates that “all internal debts shall be recovered within twelve months. The CEO may, under exceptional circumstances and upon submission of a motivation, approve any repayment period exceeding twelve months”. Consultations with the affected employees were conducted and employees were provided with the opportunity indicate their repayment preferences. Although it was the intention of the RSR to recover such overpayment during the 2017/18 financial year, with effect from September 2017 salary payments, certain RSR employees opted to repay their respective debt amount over a 12-month period, whilst permission was granted to 2 employees to exceed the twelve-month provision.

(a)(ii) No overpayments since April 2018 have occurred.

The Table below indicates the amounts which were recovered, as well as the period for such recovery. All monies have been recovered, and no interest was charged or paid.

(a) How is his department or any of the entities reporting to him involved in the elections of the leadership of the SA National Taxi Council (SANTACO), (b) what reports have been provided to him and his department in this regard in the past three financial years, (c) what are the main achievements of SANTACO in the past three financial years and (d) how did his department or any of the entities reporting to him benefit from this?

Reply:

(a) How is his department or any of the entities reporting to him involved in the elections of the leadership of the SA National Taxi Council (SANTACO)?

Although government was involved in the establishment of SANTACO, the Department does not get involved in the election of its leadership. As a Section 21 company SANTACO is entitled to elect its own leadership independent from government.

(b) What reports have been provided to him and his department in this regard in the past three financial years?

Regarding the general administration of SANTACO, government committed to funding the organization to support the formalization of the taxi industry. In this regard, SANTACO submits a Business Plan at the beginning of each financial year and based on that, a Service Level Agreement is then entered between SANTACO and the Department to:

(i) Set milestones whereby funds are transferred upon achievement thereof; and

(ii) Require that reporting for expenditure monthly be in place and also that SANTACO provides audited financial statements in order to release funds for any new financial year.

(c) What are the main achievements of SANTACO in the past three financial years?

The rollout of the Hlokomela Programme/Campaign in all nine provinces has been a positive step in the right direction. The programme is aimed at reducing road accidents through checking and monitoring taxi vehicles, monitoring driver behavior and conditions as well as ensuring commuter wellness and safety. This is an ongoing programme by SANTACO to try and change the face of the taxi industry for the better.

(d) How did his Department or any of the entities reporting to him benefit from this?

Although progress has generally been slow, the biggest benefit for the Department, is the ability to engage with a formalized structure regarding any taxi related issues and allow the Department to utilize this platform for engagement with the industry at large.

Reply:

(a) (c) and (e) Answer – please refer to the attached listing

(b) and (d) Answer - The ACSA organisation, as a schedule 2 has adopted the PFMA and PPPFA regulation as a means of executing its procurement administration. These regulatory prescripts are in place to ensure that the procurement process is fair, equitable, transparent, competitive and cost effective.

Further the PPPPFA sets out the standards, including the evaluation process to be employed in the evaluation and the selection of the most suitable service provider whilst ensuring that the 5 pillars as set out in section 217A of the act are upheld. The evaluation criteria are defined by a team of subject matter experts.

ACSA has employed a three-bid committee system. These independent committees are assembled to ensure that the procurement process in the evaluation, recommendation and the final award is fair, transparent, competitive, equitable and cost effective. The evaluation criteria by its nature are set to determine a match against the set requirements, thus ensuring that the award to make to a supplier has the capacity and capability to undertake the contract of a defined magnitude. This holistic capacity and capability assessment is not only focused on the technical aspects, it also has a strong focus on the financial strength, legal standing, and many other aspects that are deemed necessary on a tender by tender basis.

Further to the above, ACSA has a performance management system in place. This system ensures a continuous evaluation of the performance of the service provider through the life span of the contract.

The process is administered by the SCM department with participation of nominated end users, with timelines defined per tender.

Reply:

The National Department of Transport has not received allegations regarding involvement of politically connected persons who were awarded contracts for road maintenance programme in the Free State Department of Police, Roads and Transport.

It is for that reason that no form of enquiry has been launched to this effect.

De Freitas, Mr MS to ask the Minister of Transport

With reference to his reply to question 458 on 8 March 2018, (a) who are the members of the respective Railway Safety Regulator Level Crossing Technical Committees in each province, (b) how were the members selected, (c) what criteria was used to select the members, (d) who selected the committee members in each case and (e) what is being done to ensure that all committees are functional going forward?

Reply:

a) Kindly refer to the attached Annexure A for a list of members of the Level Crossing Technical Committees in each province.

b) Invitation letters were sent to provincial Heads of Departments, requesting their departments’ participation in the level crossing committees. The letters further requested the HOD’s to nominate suitable personnel to attend the meetings. Refer to Annexure B

c) Refer to (b)

d) Depending on the agenda items for each committee, the committee would often identify more stakeholders to be invited to future committee meetings based on their role. An example of this would be identifying and inviting representatives from the Traffic Police, which would then assist with law enforcement pertaining to motorists and pedestrians when crossing a level crossing.

e) The organisation is currently in the process of resuscitating the committees across the country, with regions spear-heading the process. Gauteng had its first meeting for 2018 on 31 August. The meetings will be held quarterly.

Vos, Mr J to ask the Minister of Transport

(1)What progress has been made regarding the ratification with other African countries of the Yamoussoukro Decision regarding the Open Skies for Africa policy; (2) what is the Government’s position on the specified decision; (3) in what manner have the delays in implementing the decision affected the air services market in South Africa, with regard to packaging the Southern African Development Community region amongst international arrivals?

Reply:

1. Yamoussoukro Decision is not a treaty to be ratified but an African Civil Aviation Policy for the integration and the establishment of a Single African Air Transport Market to enhance African Intra-Trade and Tourism. In terms of Section 35 of the International Air Services Act 60 of 1993, the Minister may, exercise the delegated authority by the State President to enter into any air transport services agreement with the government or other appropriate authority of another State or Territory regarding the control over and regulation of any class or type of International air services operated or to be operated between the Republic and that State or Territory. In the absence of a continental multilateral institutions to fully regularise air transport, South Africa has concluded thirty-eight (38) Bilateral Air Services Agreements (BASA’s) with willing and able states in line with the principle of Yamoussoukro Decision (YD) awaiting the institutionalisation of a multilateral framework to fully regulate the continental civil aviation. South Africa has further integrated the principles of YD in the National Civil Aviation Policy that has since been approved by Cabinet on the 15th of February 2017.

2. Government is in full support of the integration and establishment of the Single African Air market. South Africa has to date signed the Declaration for Solemn Commitment to the implementation of YD towards the establishment of Single African Air Transport Market (SAATM). The former President, His Excellency Mr. Jacob Gedleyihlekisa Zuma, witnessed the launch of SAATM during the 30th Ordinary Session of the Assembly of the Union, in January 2018.

3. Implementation of YD has been slow and limited. The delay has caused South African and rest of the continent to miss out on substantial economic benefits. Some air transport markets between Africa and countries outside of Africa have been liberalized to a significant extent. But most intra-African aviation markets remain closed and regulated through bilateral agreements which limit the growth and development of air services.

Air services arrangements with the South African Development Community (SADC) have been restricted, limiting airline participation in the market. However, of recent, some SADC states are slowly embracing the principles of YD and are progressively liberalizing key elements of the Bilateral Air Services Agreements. Restrictions on designation of airlines on specific routes and limited capacity still exist in air services arrangements with Namibia, Angola, Mauritius, Tanzania, Madagascar and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Reluctance of these states to embrace YD has negatively affected South African airlines desiring to either introduce new services or expanding existing markets. The Government, however, continues to engage these States bilaterally and multilaterally to encourage them to be part of the African Union initiative of creating a single air transport market for Africa.

(1)Have there been any land claims on the Pilanesburg airport or its runways; if so, have any discussions been undertaken with the land claimants; (2) was an offer made to the claimants; if so, (a) why did the land owner not accept the offer and (b) has the issue of expropriation of that land been considered?

Reply:

  1. Yes, there is land claim on part of the airport. Half of the runway is on the claimed land, but the other portion has not yet experienced any claim.
  2. Discussions and negotiation have commenced between the Department of Public Works and Road and Community Safety and Transport Management and the Claimant.

(1)(a) What are the details of (i) the passenger throughput and (ii) aircraft movements at the Pilanesburg Airport since 1 January 2010, (b) does the Airports Company South Africa still own and operate the airport and (c) is the airport a national key point; (2) is the airport formally closed; if so, (a) what factors led to its closure, (b) has an economic impact assessment been conducted on the closure of the airport and (c) what is the likely impact of this closure on tourism and the platinum mining sector in the North West?

Reply:

1. (a) (i) There has been an increase in passenger movements, both domestic and international.

(ii) Aircraft movements increased, both domestic and international.

(b) No, the airport is owned and managed by the North West Provincial Government.

(c) Yes.

(2) Yes.

(a) The airport is temporarily closed due to maintenance requirements on runway pavement and security perimeter fence, warthogs are gaining access into the airside causing many runway incursions and accident.

(b) Not yet but certainly will be temporarily negatively affected.

(c) Certainly, negative impact envisaged.

De Freitas, Mr MS to ask the Minister of Transport

With reference to the reply to question 3817 on 28 November 2017, (a) why are height restrictions of 4,3 m going to be re-introduced, (b) what economic impact analysis has been undertaken in relation to the country’s immediate neighbours, including the countries of the Southern African Development Community, internationally once the specified restrictions have been re-introduced and (c) what are the results of the analysis?

Reply:

(a) There is no re-introduction of the vehicle and load height restriction as provided for in terms of regulation 224 of the National Road Traffic Regulations, 2000 under the National Road Traffic Act, 1996 (Act No.93 of 1996) (“the Act”). The height restriction has always been part of the Act. The special dispensation that was granted exempting the operation of motor vehicles transporting ISO Containers from complying with the provisions of regulation 224(b) is lapsing with effect from 1 January 2019. This special dispensation was granted to allow the industry to procure and/or source complaint trailers to transport high cube containers come 01 January 2019. The intention was not to exempt the industry indefinitely.

(b) There is no obligation on my Department to conduct an economic impact analysis because there is no intention to amend Regulation 224 of the National Road Traffic Act. It would go against the established legislative drafting conventions for my Department to conduct an economic impact analysis or research whilst the legislation is in effect. Simply put, research informs legislative drafting not the other way around.

(c) Refer to (b) above.

Reply:

As mandated by the National Railway Safety Regulator Act, No 16 0f 2002, each operator is responsible and accountable for ensuring the safety of railway operations, while the Railway Safety Regulator (RSR) is accountable for providing adequate and appropriate oversight of the safety of railway operations.

a) Railway Operators submit annual Safety Management System Reports (SMSR) to the RSR and at the core of the SMSR is the Annual Safety Improvement Plan. The Annual Safety Improvement Plan contains the operator’s annual railway operational improvement plans that demonstrate how the operator has resourced themselves to mitigate the risks that they identify in their railway operations. The SANS 3000 standards guide the operators on the content of the plans.

Operators throughout the nine provinces have Safety Management Systems as mandated by the SANS 3000 series of standards. The Annual Safety Improvement Plan contains the Operator Risk Assessment, the Controls to reduce or mitigate the risks and the Targets aimed at reducing the incidents. The Action Plans are also found in the Annual Safety Improvement Plan of the operators.

b) The plan would, among measures, indicate how the operator plans to reduce level crossing incidents, people struck by train incidents (PSBT), collisions, derailments, theft and vandalism incidents, etc.

To mitigate the risks identified in each rail operator’s Risk Registers, the operators approve and execute COPEX and CAPEX Projects. For example, the Platform Projects by PRASA are aimed at mitigating the Platform Train Interface (PTI) incidents, the Walling Project at reducing the PSBT incidents, Re-signalling Projects at reducing collisions, etc.

c) Most of the key projects are at construction stages while some are at commissioning stages. The RSR conducts reviews on these projects through all project life cycle phases to ensure that the new works do not introduce new risks to the railway system and where these cannot be eliminated, that necessary mitigation measures are implemented.

d) The SANS 3000-1 standard specifies that incidents must be reported to the RSR. It states which incidents must be reported within 15 minutes, daily, etc. All reported incidents find their way into the Annual State of Safety Report. The RSR conducts Audits and Inspections on the operators to oversee their compliance towards their safety management systems and plans.

Reply:

A Metrorail train consist of several motor coaches (electrical powered units) and a number of plain trailers - coaches. Normally a full train set (train) consist of 12 coaches (3 motor coaches and 9 plain trailers). The response reflects the coaches and the equivalent 12-coach Metrorail train sets (trains). Metrorail does not utilize locomotives. Locomotives are used in MLPS and in freight at Transnet.

a) Details of the incidents on vandalism of Rolling Stock has only been kept by Protection Services since December 2016 when vandalism became an endemic problem. The information is kept on the fleet maintenance side as well but is not readily available.

b) File attached.

c) (i) File attached.

(ii) As can be seen from the numbers involved, investigations internally are not done for each and every case. Cases are opened with SAPS with the available information and the results of SAPS investigations is included in (c)(i). The Prasa Rescue plan includes actions to address the protection of assets in the Metrorail environment.

Dreyer, Ms AM to ask the Minister of Transport

With regard to the proposed high-speed train that will go through Kempton Park, has the bridge near Birchleigh station that goes over Elgin Road been tested for structural stability and strength; if not, when will such a test be conducted; if so, (a) when was the test conducted and (b) what were the results of the test?

Reply:

It is understood that the high-speed train refers to the new generation Electric Multiple Units to be rolled out by PRASA over the next 10 years in the commuter rail network. The bridge near Birchleigh Station that goes over Elgin Road, has not been tested for these trains.

a) The bridge was inspected in December 2017 and February 2018. The inspection conducted indicates that the bridge is structurally sound for the current traffic. Tests will be conducted in November 2018 which will take the high-speed traffic design into consideration.

b) The results of the inspection were as follows:

  • Structural damage to the bottom flange of the beams near the middle of the beam span.
  • Damage to the warning sign on the bottom flange of the northern outer bridge beam by the vehicles exceeding height restriction.
  • Corrosion of the deck soffit structural steel components was found in most cases.
  • Drainage of the bridge road pavement was ineffective or non-existent.
  • “No advance allowable vehicle height warning structures” mounted on either approach of the bridge.

The bridge is part of the planned bridges to be rehabilitated by PRASA in the 2018/2019 financial year.

Profile picture: Ollis, Mr IM

Ollis, Mr IM to ask the Minister of Transport

(1)Whether (a) his department, (b) the Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa or (c) Metrorail had any meetings with the City of Tshwane and/or the Member of the Mayoral Committee for Transport in the City of Tshwane to discuss connecting future Bus Rapid Transport (BRT) systems in the City with existing Metrorail lines that are currently not in use, with a view to create a transport network connecting various modes of transport; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details of the meeting; (2) have any similar meetings been undertaken since the completion of the Gautrain in order to facilitate a one-ticket system for the Gautrain, Metrorail and the various BRT systems in the province; if not, why not?

Reply:

1. (a,b,c) Both the City of Tshwane (which receives Public Transport Network Grant funding from the DoT for its BRT/Integrated Public Transport Network) as well as Prasa, have at least since 2012 been reminded on several occasions to fully cooperate on planning for both road and rail based services that ultimately link up to form an Integrated Public Transport Network.

Key operational as well as mothballed rail lines (e.g. Hammanskraal) and services have been identified in the Tshwane IPTN plan since 2013 as well as in various Prasa strategies.

The City furthermore designed the currently incomplete A re Yeng Phase 1 service to link up with Prasa’s Kopanong Station in Shoshanguve, Wonderboom Station in Pretoria North, Pretoria Station in the CBD, stations in Sunnyside, Hatfield and finally Denneboom Station in Mamelodi. In addition, A re Yeng links with the Hatfield and Pretoria Gautrain stations.

The key challenge with regard to actually implementing an IPTN in Tshwane that includes both road and rail services, lies not in the planning or intent but rather in the slow implementation of getting viable services and infrastructure ready to operate. In this regard both the City as well as Prasa are well behind the envisaged timelines set in 2013.

The DoT, supported by National Treasury, is currently engaging with the City, amongst others, and Prasa to ensure that financially prudent and viable services are fasttracked that will lead to a tangible integrated network in Tshwane.

2. Over the past few years, the Gauteng Department of Transport and MEC have coordinated the various cities and Prasa to explore the possibility of having a single fare media for at least the subsidised services in Gauteng. The 2011 DoT regulations on Automated Fare Collection provides a platform (using bank industry payment media that is interoperable) for this.

Currently the three Gauteng metros have implemented a compliant smartcard system that can be made interoperable. Gautrain as well is in the final pilot testing stage of implementing the same interoperable fare media. Prasa are still exploring the business case for investing in automated fare collection and held a market engagement in 2017 to explore options.

Once again, the key challenge to ensuring interoperable fare media in Gauteng is not the technology, but rather the actual slow rollout of IPTN services together with the attendant automated fare collection systems. The intent and leadership exists, the key task at hand is to scale up and speed up the rollout of IPTN lines across the 3 metros and to speed up the Prasa modernisation programme.

Gauteng Province, supported by the Gautrain Management Agency, has done significant preparatory work on a common fare system. The challenge now is to roll out more upgraded services and to integrate their business models in order for a single fare system to follow.

In view of the fact that the road infrastructure is under severe strain (details furnished) and in light of the recently adopted Medium-Term Expenditure Framework, (a) what steps does he intend to take to ensure that the monetary allocation by the National Treasury towards road maintenance is increased in the next three financial years, (b) by what amount in each case and (c) what is the anticipated impact thereof on the maintenance and standard of the road infrastructure in future?

Reply:

(a) The Department of Transport is continuously engaging National Treasury, with regard, the need to increase the Budget allocation for Roads Maintenance.

There has been an increase in the budgets for National Roads as indicated in the graph link below.

Fig2 : Financial Support to Provinces

b) Refer to the Fig 1 and 2 above.

c) The PRMG accounts for roughly half of provincial road maintenance expenditure, with the funds mostly used for routine and periodic maintenance needs. Hence, very limited resources are available to rehabilitate the provincial paved road network unless the PRMG is significantly grown over the medium to long term or provinces allocate a much larger portion of own funds to road maintenance – ideally a combination of both measures.

The magnitude of maintenance backlogs due to lack of funding is such that it is unlikely to be addressed through national transfers and subsidies, especially given the National Treasury’s commitment to fiscal consolidation, which in the continued absence of notable economic growth must be predominantly realised through higher allocations from the provincial treasuries and/or from savings and efficiencies in respective provincial departmental expenditure.

Where the emphasis in the earlier years was more on the existence of infrastructure, at present the emphasis is on network availability and redundancy predominantly. This requires a different asset management approach. Therefore, Road Authorities need to revisit their maintenance strategies by looking at the relationship between infrastructure and mobility, so that the range of optional interventions can be broadened, to extend the lifetime of road assets.

(1)Whether, with regard to the passenger rail service provided by the Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa between Buffalo City/East London, Butterworth and Umtata, it is envisaged that the rail line will be upgraded to provide a regional passenger rail service that would operate on improved timetables, instead of the current slow and unreliable service on the specified route; if not, why not; if so, on what date(s) will such improvements be implemented; (2) whether it is envisaged that a proper rail service will be implemented on this whole route instead of using buses for certain sections of the route; if not, why not; (3) will the Government provide budgetary funds towards the upgrading of the specified rail line, as the service is entirely devoted to serving the rural poor?

Reply:

1. A rail service between East London and Mthatha, known as the Kei Rail service, was provided in the past. The service has been stopped as it was unsustainable. The patronage was very low for a rail service and the travel time exceedingly long due to the terrain and rail geometry. The journey by rail was approximately 12 hours as compared to 3 hours by road.

Subsequently, in 2013 The Eastern Cape Department of Transport further investigated the feasibility of the Kei Rail service and confirmed that in its current state it was not economically viable as a stand alone passenger service. Other road based public transport modes were found to be more economically viable. The railway line is currently owned by Transnet and the provision of a passenger rail service for socio-economic reasons was always considered a possibility on the basis of having a sustainable freight service to offset the costs. Unfortunately, sustainbale freight operations on this corridor has not yet materialised.

There are no plans at this point in time to reintroduce the service.

2. See above

3. Current studies undertaken suggest little justification for investment at this point in time.

Is there a future plan to implement an upgraded express train connecting Carletonville, Krugersdorp, Randfontein and Central Johannesburg; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details?

Reply:

The Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa (PRASA) currently provides a rail service from Randfontein to Park (Central Johannesburg) Station. An express service, Randfontein Metroplus Express, departs Randfontein at 06h00 in the morning. The Express Service has unfortunately not been operating on a regular basis due to the limited availability of trains. PRASA has however identified the opportunity in the medium term to run faster services from Randfontein to reduce the travelling time to Park Station. This entails running an outer-service from Randfontein to Krugersdorp with limited stops thereafter an inner-service from Krugersdorp stopping at all stations. This will become possible once the train fleet allocation for Gauteng has stabilised and increased.

There are currently no short term plans to extend the service to Carletonville based on the current demand requirements and fleet availability. PRASA is however involved in the update and development of the Integrated Transport Plans and transport demand model for the West Rand and will update its plans accordingly should future transport demand warrant a rail service.

(a) On what date will the construction on the new rail extension for Metrorail linking Motherwell and Coega with the Nelson Mandela Metro CBD commence, (b) what is the anticipated date of completion for the extension and (c) on what date is the service anticipated to begin running?

Reply:

a) The detail design and Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) phase is currently underway and it is anticipated that it will be completed by June 2019. The Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality will be updating their transport demand model and Integrated Transport Plan for the City. A final decision on preliminary timeframes for construction will be taken once this phase is completed.

Should it be decided to proceed, PRASA will be able to issue the tender for construction in the latter half of 2020 once land acquisition matters have been finalised. Construction could therefore possibly commence during the latter half 2021.

b) A two-year construction programme is envisaged. Based on above timeframe, the construction can be completed towards the end of 2023.

c) Operations could commence early in 2024 once testing and commissioning has been completed.
