Lekota, Mr M to ask the Minister of Transport

With reference to the community protest actions in the Matatiele region regarding the state of disrepair of the road network in the specified region, what (a) is his department’s assessment of the (i) access, (ii) district, (iii) regional and (iv) primary road networks in the greater Matatiele region and (b) plans are there to attend to the repairs and maintenance of the specified road networks?

Reply:

a) (i) (ii) (iii) and (iv) R56 commences just outside of Pietermaritzburg and navigate the eastern region of the KZN province. It consists of various sections of roads which are Main road P5; P416; N2; P609 and traverse the towns of Richmond, Ixopo, Umzimkhulu and Kokstad respectively, R56 then further extends outside the border of the KwaZulu Natal province to Matatiele.

The KwaZulu Natal Department of Transport embarked on an exercise to do Condition Assessment for the Province for the total paved network of approximately 7650 kilometres consisting of provincial and district roads.

Upon completion of the exercise, it was found that 66% of the entire network was not in a good condition. A priority list was deduced based on the severity of defects on the roads and using the limited available funding, rehabilitation measures were implemented.

Route 56 has always been a high priority as it forms part of a link between the provinces of KwaZulu Natal, Eastern Cape and the country of Lesotho and over the years the KZN Department of Transport has done rehabilitation work to ensure safe transition and will continue to plan for maintenance activities accordingly.

b) Whilst 32 kilometers of P609 which is the nearest section of road from the KZN province region to the Eastern Cape boarder, towards Matatiele, it can be confirmed that the rehabilitation plans are only envisaged to commence during the 2020-21 financial year. With the current condition of the road being deemed as poor due to defects related to functionality, the structural capacity of the road is however relevantly sound and poses no risk to the design life of the road or any other unanticipated catastrophic failures. However, holding maintenance measures in a form of patching and pothole repairs where necessary will be conducted on an ongoing basis to ensure safe driving conditions.

South African Civil Aviation Authority (SACAA)

  1. (i) Not applicable; (ii) and (b): The South African Civil Aviation Authority (SACAA) endeavours to comply with section 38(1)(f) of the Public Finance Management Act, Treasury Regulation 8.2.3 and National Treasury SCM Instruction No 5 of 2016/17 to settle all contractual obligations as well as all valid and approved invoices within a period of 30 days, or as prescribed or agreed.

Debt is settled within 30 days of a valid and approved invoice being presented to the SACAA’s Finance Department and if all the required supporting documents are submitted. An invoice is regarded as a valid invoice only after it has been approved by the business unit receiving the service / product, to certify that goods/services offered were received in order and were of the correct quality and quantity. Invoices that have not been approved and paid within 30 days are as a result of queries between the SACAA and the supplier that must be resolved first. Payments are done weekly by the SACAA’s Finance Department and a creditor’s age analysis is prepared and reviewed monthly. The following invoices are currently recorded as unpaid for more than 30 days:

  1. (ii) CBRTA’

The Cross Border Road Transport Agency pays its debt timeously, at an average of 14 days per creditor. There are however, isolated instances where service providers are not paid within 30 days of receipt of invoices for a variety of reasons, for instance, where the service has not been satisfactory and warrants engagement with the Agency, or where errors have been picked up from the supplier invoices or where the price charged is not in line with what was contracted or quoted.

  1. (ii) The Agency has eighteen (18) suppliers that remained unpaid for more than 30 days as at the end of October 2017. See table below for more information.

(aa) 30 days but below 60 days

  1. 60 days but below 90 days

Ports Regulator of South Africa

1(a)(ii) The Ports Regulator annually grants all employees a salary increase equivalent to CPI adjustment as per the National Treasury estmates used during the MTEF budget process. The employees below senior management are entitled to all bebenfits which include: medical aid, group life and pension. These benefits are however not available to senior employees in terms of the Regulator concidions of service. This practice has been in place since 2012/13 financial year when the salary bands and benefits were approved by the Minister of Transport in concurrence with the Minister of Finance as required by the National Ports Act.

(b) The increases are implemented at the beginning of each financial year. The salary increases are done as per the National Treasury guide to Departments.

( c) The salary increases are accounted for in the annual budget of the Regulator which is then approved by the Regulator (board) concurrent with the approval of the APP and the Strategic plan. This is done before the start of the financial year so that the implementation of the APP as well as salary increases is done at the same time.

2(a) The conditions of service of the Regulator indicates that all employees below manager level get 10% of annual salary as a bonus while employees from manager to senior managers get 20% of annual salary as a bonus. This practice has been in plac since 2013/14 financial year when the performance mnagement system was developed, approved and implemented

(b) The employees each sign a performance agreement at the beginning of the financial year. The performance agreement will set out expected outputs from each employee based on the deliverables for their specific department. At the end of the financial year, each employee is then assessed against reported performance and scored in accordance with the performance framework which has a sliding scale from 5 to 1. Employees get a bonus if they perform above level 3. A final weighting is done for all KPI’s and final score given to an employee. The final score is then used to calculate the quantum of the bonus earned by the employee.

( c) The performance bonus forms part of the annual budgert that is approved by the Regulator (board). When the bonuses for all employees have been finalised, there’s a review that is performed by a committee to ensuer that there was transparency, fairness and relevance between employees performance and that of the organisation. Once the review is complete the bonuses are then forwaded to the CFO for recommendation to the CEO for final approval before making payemnts to employees. .
