The national executive intervened in the Mangaung Metropolitan Municipality (the Metro) in terms of section 139(7) of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, 1996, read with section 150 of the Municipal Finance Management Act No. 56 of 2003. The intervention is jointly led by the Department of Cooperative Governance (DCoG) and the National Treasury.

On 20 April 2022, the Minister of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs (CoGTA), together with senior officials from the DCoG, attended and addressed a special council meeting of the Metro. Also in attendance were officials from the Free State Government led by the Premier and accompanied by the provincial MEC’s of Finance and CoGTA, as well as senior officials from their respective Departments.

The purpose of the special council meeting was to communicate the Cabinet decision for placing the Metro under national intervention and the implications thereof. Subsequently, on 28 April 2022 the Minister of Finance published the Terms of Reference (copy attached) to guide the work of the intervention team that have been seconded to the Metro by DCoG, National Treasury, and sector Departments from national and provincial government.

a) The Department of Water and Sanitation (DWS) together with the Mopani District Municipality are in the process of implementing a number of interventions to ensure that communities living in the Greater Giyani Local Municipality have access to water. The projects entail refurbishment of Giyani water treatment works required to treat surface water from the Nsami Dam and to convey adequate and sustainable potable water to Giyani Town and the surrounding 55 villages. The projects progress is as follows

PRPOJECT NAME	DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT	OVERALL CONSTRUCTION PROGRESS IN %	ANTICIPATED COMPLETION DATE
Giyani water services – reticulation Funded by the Mopani District Municipality (MDM)	Refurbishment/construction of service reservoirs in 55 villages Refurbishment/construction of reticulation in 55 villages around Giyani Installation of metered yard connections for revenue enhancement & demand management	0% it is at planning state	TBC
Giyani water treatment works refurbishment Funded by MDM	Minor refurbishment of the operational 30Ml/d WTW components Major refurbishment of non-operational 6,5Ml/d WTW components	0% it is at planning state	September 2023
Giyani water services – bulk distribution Funded by DWS	Construction of eight (8) bulk pipelines to provide water to 55 villages (325 km) Repairs and refurbishments of existing water and sanitation infrastructure	53%	December 2022
Nandoni to Nsami pipeline Funded by DWS	Construction of 49km raw water pipeline to Giyani	40%	September 2023

The MDM has 346 newly drilled boreholes that require electrification. Applications for electrification of boreholes have been submitted to ESKOM. The district municipality indicated that electrical installations will be done in batches of 25 boreholes due to budget constraints.

Bulk water from the Nondweni water treatment works is reaching all the villages. The Mopani District Municipality is also constructing a booster pump station to ensure that water reaches the furthest point especially the Mayephu area. The booster pump station is 80% complete.

CCIFSA have since responded as follows:

The CCIFSA memberships comprises of cultural and creative industry formations as defined in UNESCO. CCIFSA current members includes 9 provincial federations as stipulated in our constitution, we can also mention the following organisations: South African Music Council, South African Arts and Culture Youth Forum, South African Creative Practitioners in Unity, CISTERWOOD, AESA and many more. Beyond that CCIFSA has associates like Trade Union for Musicians of South Africa (TUMSA) and Southern African Communications Industries Association (SACIA). Beyond this CCIFSA continue to engage other national organisations to join the Federation.

As indicated in response to question 1988 Status Quo is the same.

CCIFSA have since responded as follows:

(a). Yes, board members are getting paid a salary of R30 000 per month. With regards to CCIFSA boards allowances, the organisation conducted research on how other confederations like SASCOC and other institution operates, and the board fees are therefore in line with the industry standards.

(b). CCIFSA is a democratic organisation that accommodates all races, as a result there are members of colour in the organisation; however, the Executive do not have any control on the outcomes of conferences as this was done through an open democratic process. However, the current leadership has already reached out to organisations like TUMSA, SACIA and Visual Arts Network of South Africa (VANSA). The first two organisations are currently associates of the organisation with the purpose of winning their confidence to be fully members of the organisation; and engagements are going on with VANSA with the purpose of finding each other and working together, no formal relationship has been finalized between the two organisations yet.

As the current leadership, we are unable to respond to whether CCIFSA is not representing the creatives. We believe that CCIFSA has played significant role in organising the sector. CCIFSA has managed to create a platform where national organisations are able to engage and discuss challenges of the sector and find ways of resolving them.

(c). The organisation plans to hold an AGM in the next financial year as it needs budget for that, the current budget can only cover administration, and few identified critical programmes. The organisation is doing everything in its power to source more funds including applying to National Lottery to raise more funds to push the work of the federation.

No such policy has been made by the Department or the Ministry to remove Afrikaans from the name of the Afrikaanse Taalmuseum en monument. So there will be no name change on the atm. We have charged our entities to ensure that as part of the language development, the entity should take on board at least one indigenous language.

Lomanyaneng Ward 5 is currently provided with water from the Mahikeng Water Treatment Works and from seven (7) boreholes situated in Majemantsho Village. The current water supply of 5 Ml/d does not meet the demand of 7Ml/d in the area.

According to the Ngaka Modiri Molema District Municipality (DM), which is a designated Water Service Authority (WSA), funding of R 55 million was made available for ground water augmentation project in Lomanyaneng. The project scope includes drilling and equipping of nine (9) boreholes and refurbishment of a booster pump station. Upon completion of this project, it is expected that additional 2.4 Ml/d will be supplied into the system. The project commenced in November 2021 and is expected to be completed in July 2022.

Furthermore, the Ngaka Modiri Molema DM is currently implementing a Bulk Water Supply Project in ward 31 at Dithakong Village which will also augment the supply to both Ward 35 and 5 once commissioned.

1(a) There is no Committee appointed by the Board of Mhlathuze Water to investigate allegations against the office bearer referred to. The Board cannot appoint a committee to investigate its own affairs. Such powers rest with the Minister of Water and Sanitation. The Ministry has performed a preliminary fact-finding exercise regarding this matter. The department’s Internal Audit will investigate the allegations levelled against the office bearer.

(2) Up until such time that the process outlined above has been concluded it would be premature to speculate on what action the Minister might take.

My department is working closely with Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality (NMBM) and other affected and interested stakeholders to manage resources in the Algoa Water Supply System (AWSS). Monthly water use monitoring meetings are held to ensure that all users adhere to the restrictions imposed by my department.

The Department of Water and Sanitation (DWS) has developed a model to determine the percentage water restrictions that must be implemented to try and ensure that NMBM as well as the whole Algoa water supply system which includes Koukamma LM, Kouga LM as well as the Gamtoos Irrigation Board does not run out of water. This model is run on an annual basis to determine the domestic as well as the irrigation restrictions that must be implemented to ensure that the whole Algoa system does not reach day zero.

Restrictions were set at 40% of the water resources from the Western side of NMBM. The NMBM could not bring down their water use to the total restricted water use of 222Ml/day. The municipality could only reduce water use to 280 to 290Ml/day despite implementing several projects such as awareness campaigns, leak repairs, pressure management, increase in water tariffs, installation of water use restrictors to reduce the water use.

Interventions already being implemented include the following:

• The DWS previously provided drought funding to the metro to increase the capacity of the Nooitgedacht WTW (Phase 2) to supply more water from the Fish-Sundays River water supply system.
• The DWS further funded the Nooitgedacht Coega Low Level Phase 3 scheme which entailed the construction of a 45Ml/day balancing reservoir, an additional section to Water Treatment Plant of 70Ml/day to augment the current water supply from 140Ml/day to 210Ml/day. This project reached practical completion at the end of March 2022, which means that an additional 70Ml/day can be supplied to NMBM.
• Support to the NMBM to apply for drought funding to COGTA to augment the pumping capacity of the Motherwell and Stanford Road pumpstations and pump additional water to the Western side. COGTA has allocated R58 million drought funding towards this project and the DWS is part of the implementation team
• The DWS has allocated funding since 2019 towards the development of groundwater in the Kouga Local Municipality to reduce the water requirements of Kouga LM from the NMBM supply dams

The DWS is engaging the NMBM, GOGTA and National Treasury to discuss other possible solutions to ensure that the Western side of NMBM does not run out of water. One of the solutions under consideration is to pump more water from the Eastern side (where unrestricted water is available) to the Western side of the Metro.

Discussions have also been held with the Strategic Water Partner’s network to establish a Nelson Mandela Bay / Gqberha Water Partnership. This entails possible funding from the Private Sector to assist with interventions such leak repairs, water demand management as well as appointing experts to assist with the management of the water crisis. This will be managed by the Strategic Water Partner’s network in collaboration with NMBM and the NMB Business Forum.

Be assured that my department takes the current situation in NMBM serious and will assist the Metro to try and ensure that there will be water supply to the customers.

a) Employees who are receiving the old housing allowance are those who have not submitted the required housing allowance documents to their respective Human Resource Sections within their respective departments. The required documents include a completed and signed application form for homeowners, proof of home ownership as well as proof that the employee occupies the property concerned. Upon submission of the necessary documents, the affected employees shall receive the current amount of R1 500.07 per month.

b) The only way for the affected employees to move from the outdated housing allowance, is to comply with the information as stipulated in (a) above. In 2015 and 2016 respectively, the DPSA issued Circulars (17/3/P) to all government departments detailing the manner in which the implementation of migration to the new housing allowance should occur.

In addition to previously issued Circulars, the Director-General will again communicate with Directors-General and Heads of Departments of the affected departments and provincial administrations regarding the importance of migrating employees to the new housing allowance system. The Circular will be issued in June 2022.

Over and above issuing Circulars, Government Employees Housing Scheme conducts information Sessions with Human Resource Practitioners in government departments to engage on issues of compliance with the prescripts of housing allowance for the benefit of government employees.

1.  The Department of Water and Sanitation is not involved in the eight housing projects. If required, uMgungundlovu District Municipality may apply to the Department for RBIG funding. Alternatively, the district municipality may apply to CoGTA for MIG funding.

2. As no application for RBIG funding has been received from uMgungundlovu Municipality, no funds are currently being provided to the municipality for construction of bulk water infrastructure to service the eight housing projects. The requirements for applying to the DWS for RBIG funding include a detailed feasibility study report, preliminary designs, an implementation readiness study report and a business plan from the municipality.

The National Framework Towards Professionalisation of the Public Sector has not as yes been approved by the Cabinet. The National Framework Towards Professionalisation of the Public Sector take cognisance of the fact that there are senior officials who do not have the requisite qualifications and the National Framework makes the following proposals to address this:

1. The National School of Government will collaborate with Professional Bodies and Higher Education Institutions to professionalise the Public Service. The NSG has already put systems in place to ensure the realisation of this proposal in the following manner:

a) For existing public servants –

(i) The NSG is working with the Quality Council for Trades and Occupations for accreditation and registration of qualifications on the Occupational Qualification Sub-Framework from NQF Level 5-8, with the aim of professionalising the public sector (National, Provincial, Local government and Public Enterprises). These will form part of the compulsory suit of qualifications that the NSG will roll out in the public sector. This will replace the non-credit bearing senior management programmes that the NSG is currently offering. It will also assist the NSG to apply the Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) Policy to recognise the knowledge and experience acquired by public servants who enrolled and completed these programmes previously through formal, informal and non- formal learning.

(ii) Secondly, the NSG is at its final stage of granting a bid/tender to one of the Higher Education Institutions (HEI) to collaborate in the accreditation and registration of a Postgraduate Diploma in Public Affairs & African Governance at NQF Level 8. Public servants will be recruited to study this qualification through that institution and some modules will be offered by the NSG. For this qualification, the Institution’s RPL Policy will be used to recognise the prior learning of the public servants.

(iii) Thirdly, the NSG finalised the design of an executive management qualification that will be registered at NQF Level 8 with the Council on Higher Education. The NSG is working with the Department of Higher Education & Training to declared it as a College to offer Higher Education Qualifications without changing its current structure like other existing government colleges for e.g., “Western Cape Government College of Emergency Care” who have already registered qualifications on the NQF. This qualification is meant to professionalise the executive management who do not have qualifications in the public sector. It has also been designed using some of the content of the existing NSG suites of non-credit bearing executive programmes. This will assist the NSG to apply its RPL Policy to recognise the knowledge and experience acquired by the public servants who enrolled and completed these programmes previously through formal, informal and non- formal learning.

(iv) Once the qualifications have been registered on the NQF, the NSG will also implement its RPL Policy to recognise the experience and knowledge acquired by the public servants through formal, informal non formal learning in the following manner:

• The RPL to grant access to study for a qualification to public servants who do not meet the admission requirements;
• The RPL for credits by exempting public servants to study certain modules of the qualification to recognise the knowledge and experience acquired through studying certain courses with the NSG that are related to the qualifications that are registered on the NQF;
• The RPL for access to the External Integrated Summative Assessment (EISA): Public servants will be given access to write external integrated summative assessment (final examination) if they demonstrate the ability that they have met the outcomes required for the qualification.

b) The other initiative for professionalising the public service is the collaboration with statutory and non-statutory professional bodies recognised by SAQA. Various Departments including the NSG will collaborate with professional bodies in their area of work, e.g., for professional registration of public servants with professional bodies. This means that public servants who do not meet the criteria for registration or to be awarded professional designations will be required to go through the professional bodies’ processes to meet the criteria, through RPL or studying certain programmes designed by the professional bodies in collaboration with the NSG or Higher Education Institutions. Professional bodies will also play a critical role for designing programmes in collaboration with the NSG for continuing professional development of the public servants.

c) The above initiatives will assist in the professionalisation of senior government officials to ensure that positions are filled by qualified and competent officials.

There are established protocols and procedures to deal with any and all disputes within the sport and recreation sector, starting with internal processes with the affected organizations, escalating to intervention by SASCOC and thereafter the Ministry of Sport, Arts and Culture.

All disputes will be dealt with in accordance with the process once they reach the office of the Minister.

All disputes are dealt with according to section 13, 5b of the National Sport and Recreation Act.
