South African Civil Aviation Authority (SACAA)
- (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:
- (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.
- (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.

SANRAL will evaluate tenders and select the Service Provider on, inter alia, the following basis:
- The Service Provider plan to assist SANRAL to meet its goals for the provision of the required services;
- The ability of the Service Provider to meet the requirements of the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act. Prospective Service Provider/s must submit their shareholding structure. Bidders are encouraged to ensure that their bids include a significant BBBEE component.
- The Service Provider’s relevant experience, qualifications and success in providing the goods and services outlined in this RFT/RFP;

- Any other factors relevant to the Service Provider's capacity and willingness to satisfy the SANRAL requirements.
5.2 Evaluation and Adjudication
The evaluation and adjudication of the Tenders will strictly be dealt with in terms of the PFMA, Treasury regulations and Supply Chain Management. An Evaluation Committee consisting of senior officials from the South African National Roads Agency SOC Limited and complying with the SANRAL’s Supply Chain Management Policy will evaluate the bid tenders. The panel will individually evaluate each of the tenders received against the criteria listed in this section. A recommendation from the Evaluation Committee will be forwarded to the Adjudication Committee of the SANRAL who in terms of SANRAL’s Supply Chain Management Policy will adjudicate and award the contract.
SANRAL reserves the right to request one or more tenderers, who have scored, according to SANRAL, the highest scores for their tenders, to enter into negotiations with SANRAL regarding the award.
5.3 Test for responsiveness
SANRAL shall determine, on opening and before detailed evaluation, whether each Tender received:
- meets the requirements of this Request for Tender;
- has been properly and fully completed and signed, and
- is responsive to the other requirements of the tender documents.

- detrimentally affect the scope, quality, or performance of the works, services or supply identified in the Scope of Work;
- change the SANRAL’s or the Tenderer’s risks and responsibilities under the contract, or;
- affect the competitive position of other Tenderers presenting responsive tenders, if it were to be rectified.
SANRAL may reject a non-responsive Tender, and not allow it to be subsequently made responsive by correction or withdrawal of the non-conforming deviation or reservation, unless it can be subsequently rendered responsive by correction that does not prejudice the other Tenderers.
5.4 Weight Evaluation Criteria
The evaluation will follow the following sequence: - (wherein either two or single envelope may be applicable)
Phase One
- Determine the compliance through tender content;
- Determine compliance through the returnable schedules;
- Adjudication on functionality, scoring of each function; and
- Determine the score for each tenderer compared with the minimum score required;
Phase Two

The ATNS SCM process provide suppliers with the opportunity to compete for business in an open and transparent manner within the confines of the law. The following evaluation stages are applied when selecting suppliers:
- Stage on
- e (1) is the evaluation of Preferential Procurement requirement to assess compliance to Transformation requirements as per the ATNS Supply Chain Management Policy. Bidders meeting the Preferential Procurement requirements will proceed to the second stage of evaluation.
- Stage two (2) is the evaluation of compliance to Technical Specification requirement. The technical evaluation scores are weighted at 100% as indicated in the tender instructions. Bidders meeting minimum qualifying set threshold for technical evaluation will proceed to third stage of evaluation.
- The final stage (3) of evaluation is evaluation in terms of the preference point system. All bidders meeting the minimum qualifying threshold will be evaluated applying the 80/20 or 90/10 preference point system to adjudicate the bids. The preference point system ranks tenders on the basis of calculated scores for price and BBBEE contribution.
Question (e) what mechanisms exists to ensure that the companies that won the tenders have the capacity, capability and resources to fulfil the requirements demanded by each tender?

a) At the beginning of the financial year each entiy is required to submit a Shareholders compact. The shareholders compact, documents the mandated key performance measures and indicators to be achieved by the entities as agreed by the Accounting Authority and Executive Authority. The Executive Authority monitors the extent to which the Board as a whole, achieves the objectives and specific performamce targets. Procedures have been established where all the Accounting Authorities in SOE’s reports to the Executive Authority on a quarterly basis for monitoring and evaluation purposes.
b) In instances where an entity has not met its performance targets, careful consideration must be given, taking into account the reasons provided by the entities for non-achievement. Where it is found that Board members are lacking in certain skills sets they will be recommended for skills training or equipping programmes relevant to requirements. Sanctions would only become applicable where an entity has deliberately and knowingly acted negligently with state funds or resources or where supply chain processes were overlooked. In such instances, investigations are undertaken, followed by disciplinary action(s) where applicable or necessary.
c) Boards’ performance for the past three (3) financial years has been satisfactory, with other entities performing exceptionally well.
d) Board performance is monitored by the Corporate Governance Section within the Department. In addition, Boards also undergo Board evaluations, these can be done by an independent company or alternatively Board members can evaluate each other. Board evaluations conducted by Board members evaluating each other are usually done on a confidential basis. During these evaluations Board members are required to evaluate not only the positives but the negatives of each Board member over the course of the financial period under review. The outcomes of these Board evaluation reports are submitted to the Shareholder on an annual basis.

Dreyer, Ms AM to ask the Minister of Transport
(a) What plans are in place to integrate minibus taxis into an integrated public transport system,(b) what are the time frames, time lines and milestones in this regard,(c)(i) what consultation has taken place (ii) with whom (d) what are the main features of the integration?
Reply:
a) In terms of public transport strategy the incumbent operators (taxi and bus operators) should be the core of the integrated public transport system. Currently, the Integrated Public Transport Networks (IPTNs) are being operated by the incumbent operators as envisaged in the strategy. In most of the cities minibus taxi are feeding to the trunk or will feed to the trunk once the system is up and running.
b) The system is being rolled out in phases, as a result of that various cities are at different stages in terms of their system roll out.
c) (i) Consultation has taken place with various affected taxi associations and operators
(ii) It is mandatory for municipalities to consult all affected operators (minibus taxi and bus operators) when planning to implement the IPTNs.
d) In some corridors minibus taxi operators withdraw their operations and join the Vehicle Operating Company (VOC), whereas in certain cases minibus taxis remain in operation either as a feeder to the trunk of the public transport system or compete with the public transport system.

Reply:
(a) Taxi Associations operate at local level and by their very own nature are self-sustainable. The Department of Transport does not provide any direct financial assistance in the form of grants to Taxi Associations and neither are we aware of any provincial or local government that provides grants to these Associations.
(b) Refer to response number (a);

Brauteseth, Mr TJ to ask the Minister of Transport
(1)What subsidy has his department paid to the Brakpan Bus Company over the past three financial years; (2) whether he has been informed of a 2014 feasibility study into future options of the specified bus company; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, which option does his department support; (3) (a) what are the relevant details of the kind of oversight that this department has over the bus company, in view of the subsidy paid by the taxpayer; (4) (a) what (i) fraud and/or (ii) corruption has been identified in the running of the bus company and (b) why is the bus company running at a loss?
Reply:
(1) Subsidized bus services are managed and administered by Provincial Departments of Transport and subsidy is paid by Provinces through the Public Transport Operations Grant, which is a supplementary grant. The Brakpan Bus Company contract is managed by Gauteng Department of Roads and Transport and their subsidy allocation for the past three financial years is:
- 2014/15 – R11 554 076.00
- 2015/16 – R18 291 488.00
- 2016/17 – R23 293 376.00
2. Brakpan Bus Service is a municipal owned bus company and any decision about the future of the company is the prerogative of the municipality as long as it is aligned with all legislative prescripts governing public transport. The Department is conscious of the fact that Gauteng Department of Roads and Transport has appointed CSIR to conduct a due diligent exercise for all subsidized bus contracts in the Province, including Brakpan, with the aim of designing new public transport contracts in future.
3. The bus company is monitored by the Province through a Supervisory and Monitoring Firm (SMF) appointed by Gauteng Department of Roads and Transport to ensure that the operator complies with all contractual obligations.
4. a) The running and performance of the bus company is solely the obligation of the municipality as the owner.
b) Same as (a) above.

Reply:
The next Chief Executive Officer of the Road Accident Fund has not been appointed, and paragraph (a)(b)(c)(i)(c)(ii) are therefore not applicable
10 November 2017 - NW3546
Groenewald, Mr HB to ask the Minister of Transport
(a) What steps has been taken by his department to ensure that all (i) metered taxis and (ii) e-hailed taxis are operating legally, (b) what number of the specified taxis were found to be operating illegally in the past three financial years and (c) what are the details of sanctions that were imposed on the illegal taxis?
Reply:
a) On the 19th July 2017 I met with the Minister of Police and the Acting National Commissioner and his team to discuss the state of affairs between the metered taxis and /app-based operators and to propose a more focussed enforcement strategy.
In addition, I met with the MEC for Gauteng Department of Roads and Transport and the MMC’s of the relevant metropolitan municipalities on the 24th July 2017.
Furthermore, I met with the Gauteng Metered Taxi Council, the Concerned Metered Taxi Operators and the app-based operators on the 27th July 2017 in Midrand.
I also arranged a walk-about programme on 11th September 2017 in Sandton to sensitize operators that they must abide by the prescripts of the law which requires them to have a valid operating licence and that there will be no compromise on law enforcement.
b) During the above engagements, the Gauteng Province indicated they have received 6001 applications for e-hailing services as at 15 September 2017. Only 2077 applications were approved and only 1 was rejected. The Gauteng province further indicated that 3923 applications are still pending before the Gauteng Provincial Regulatory Entity (GPRE).
Regarding the metered taxi service, the GPRE received 3326 applications and 1368 of those applications were approved. GPRE also rejected 1958 applications.
During the October month the Province embarked on an outreach program where a total of 1078 applications were received and 162 licences were issued after this program. However, the information changes all the time as the Province is busy processing the licences to assist those who want to comply.
c) The National Land Transport Act, 05 of 2009 creates an offence to anyone who provides a public transport service without the necessary operating licence. If found to be providing public transport services without the licence, the relevant vehicle must be impounded and a determined fine must be paid before the vehicle is released by law enforcement. The fine varies from Province to Province since this power rests with the MECs and it goes up on a second and third offence.

Reply:
a) The recording of blood test results from Police Forensic laboratories is a mandate of SAPS. Traffic Officers only serve as complainants on the matter and the docket is processed by SAPS detectives. All 2016/17 cases are still pending.
b) The data is kept on SAPS CAS system and Department of Justice Register.

(a) How is the current tariff system of the National Ports Authority calculated and (b) how does it compare to international tariff systems and structures?
Reply:
(a) The tariffs of the NPA are calculated on the basis of a comprehensive Tariff Methodology based on the widely used internationally best practice Required Revenue approach. The current tariff decision is based on the third tariff methodology published by the Regulator having been aproved and published in March 2017 after a number of rounds of public consultation. See annexure A: Port Tariff Methodology For Tariff Years 2018/19 – 2020/21
The tariff strategy published in July 2015 sets out a transparent and rational approach to an efficient and cost reflective pricing structure. Long term tariff targets are published on an annual basis to increase transparency and stability in the sector and significant progress have been made in the rebalancing of port tariffs on a sustainable basis. The tariff strategy is fairly unique as very few port pricing systems are publicly regulated but does reflect an advanced approach to port infrastructure pricing. Please see Annexure B: Tariff Strategy for the South African Ports System 2015/16.

James, Ms LV to ask the Minister of Transport
With reference to the provincial regulating entities and the applications for licenses, (a) what (i) are the reasons for delays in these applications, (ii) is being done to get up-to-date on applications and (iii) is the average turn-around time in processing applications, (b) how is this average turn-around time calculated, (c) what is being done to reduce turn-around times in future and (d) what mechanisms, processes and procedures have been put in place in this regard?
Reply:
a) (i) Slowness of the system, National Land Transport Information System (NLTIS), used to process applications for operating licences and failure by operators to submit required or additional information for upliftment of licences.
(ii) In the short term, officials work overtime to process as many applications as possible. The medium term solution is to redesign the NLTIS.
(iii) Approximately 90 days for the processing of applications. However, the turnaround time differs in each Province, subject to capacity constraints in each Provincial Regulatory Entity (PRE).
b) Calculated using the first-come-first-processed scheduler. Complete application will take a minimum of 5 days at phase 1: helpdesk, 35 days at registration and publication phase, 10 days for board preparations and adjudication and 10 days for board minutes and upliftment of operating licences.
c) PREs have developed standard procedure manuals. The PRE committee has delegated the over the counter transactions to officials to reduce the turnaround time.
d) The Department is in a process of redesigning the system (NLTIS).

Steenkamp, Ms J to ask the Minister of Transport
(a) Why have the requests for more regular meetings of the Air Services Licensing (ASL) Council not been granted or accredited to, (b) how many requests for additional ASL Council meetings have been received in the past three financial years, (c) why have none of the requests been responded to and (d) what has he found to be the legislative implications of not acceding to the requests?
Reply:
Civil Aviation Branch
(a) The Air Services Licensing Council (ASL) normally meets monthly to consider applications for licenses. In terms of section 8(1) of the Air Services Licensing Act (Act No. 115 of 1990) (hereinafter referred to as “the Áct”), it is the prerogative of the Council to hold meetings at such times and places as may from time to time be determined by the Chairperson of the Council. The Council is, therefore, not required to request approval for the scheduling of additional meetings.
(b) and (c) Meetings of the Air Services Licensing Council are planned and organized monthly over a period of twelve months. Council is mandated in terms of the Act to hold meetings at such times and places as may be determined by the Chairperson, aligned with budgeted funds. Various additional meetings were held during the past three financial years, details as follows: In the 2015/16 financial year, Council held 14 scheduled monthly- and 3 additional meetings (total of 5 additional meetings for the year); during the 2016/17 financial year, Council held 12 scheduled monthly- and 3 additional meetings and in 2017/18 (to date), Council held 7 scheduled meetings and 2 additional meetings.
(d) No legislative implications are inherent in this regard, since all meetings of the Council are conducted within the mandate of the Act.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The Air Services Licensing Council is a statutory body established in terms of Section 3 of the Air Services Licensing Act (Act No. 115 of 1990). The Council is concerned with the licensing and control of the domestic air services. In addition, it is responsible for the promotion of high standards of safety and to ensure that the domestic air services are rendered within the legislative framework.
In terms of Section 7, “A member of the council shall receive, from moneys appropriated by Parliament for this purpose, such remuneration and allowances as may be determined by the Minister of Transport, with the concurrence of the Minister of Finance, in general or in any particular case.” Provision is made within the Branch Civil Aviation’s budget for the normal activities of the Council, which include monthly scheduled meetings as well as a nominal allocation for additional meetings to address licence applications as well as aviation industry-related meetings. Planning of additional meetings and other activities of the Council must, however, be done with due regard to the available budget as well as the cost cutting measures currently in place within the public service.
The Council conducts both scheduled and additional meetings as and when required. Various additional meetings were held during the past three financial years, details as follows:
- In the 2015/16 financial year: Council held 14 scheduled monthly- and 3 additional meetings (total of 5 additional meetings for the year);
- During the 2016/17 financial year, Council held 12 scheduled monthly- and 3 additional meetings; and
- In 2017/18 (to date), Council held 7 scheduled meetings and 2 additional meetings.

Groenewald, Mr HB to ask the Minister of Transport
With regard to airline compliance reports required by the SA Civil Aviation Authority (SACAA), (a) which airlines have failed to comply in the past three financial years, (b) what reasons were given for the noncompliance in each case, (c) what were the specified airlines requested to do to rectify each noncompliance issue, (d) what steps have the airlines taken in this regard, (e) which of the airlines failed to do any rectifications, (f) what did the SACAA do in each case and (g) what are the cost implications in each case?
Reply:
South African Civil Authority (SACAA)
The airline industry in South Africa needs to comply with the Civil Aviation Regulations of South Africa. According to these regulations, each airline must be certified to operate by complying with the requirements for an Air Operator Certificate (AOC). On an annual basis each airline must renew its certificate by participating in a renewal audit. The SACAA also conducts surveillance audits to ensure that all operators (airlines) comply with the SACAA’s safety and security regulations. Airlines from foreign countries are also subjected to ramp inspections; these are surprise inspections, conducted at the airports and the purpose of these inspections are to ensure that foreign airlines comply with the regulations of South Africa to operate in this country. These requirements are known upfront by all operators from foreign States wishing to conduct civil aviation activities in South Africa.
(a) In terms of local airline operators, in the past three financial years, only South African Express failed to comply with the requirements emanating from the audit conducted into their operations which affected the renewal of their Air Operator Certificate (AOC).
In relation to Foreign Air Operators:
- Air Zimbabwe;
- Qatar Airways;
- Turkish Airlines; and
- Saudi Airlines; did not qualify with the regulatory requirements for a Foreign Operator Permit (FOP).
(b) The reasons given for the non-compliance in each case is as follows -
- South African Express failed to comply with the requirements emanating from the audit conducted into their operations that related to the effective management of their safety management system;
- Whilst the aforementioned airlines were not in possession of the required Foreign Operator Permits.
(c) South African Express was expected to address the non –compliances identified during the safety oversight inspection as per the timelines communicated by the SACAA to them and the four Foreign Operators were required to obtain the Foreign Operator Permits.
(d) Following the grounding of the airline, South African Express eventually addressed the non-compliances identified by the SACAA in terms of the regulations. Their approval was subsequently reinstated. The four Foreign Air Operators did manage to obtain their Foreign Operator’s Permits after complying fully with the SA Civil Aviation Regulations in this regard.
(e) None, all the airlines addressed their non–compliances.
(f) South Africa Express: Air Operator Certificate (OAC) was suspended and the above-mentioned foreign airlines were restricted from exercising the privileges of an approved Foreign Air Operator.
(g) The SACAA did not incur any additinal cost for these oversight activities as this forms part of our planned oversight activites. (Shoud we mot list thepenalties for the FOP non-complainces though just in case or is it too much information?)

Groenewald, Mr HB to ask the Minister of Transport
(a) (i) How often are toll prices of long distance and inter-provincial toll roads revised and (ii) what criteria are used to arrive at a decision to revise the prices, (b) how many price increases have taken place in respect of each toll road in the past three financial years and (c) what are the details of the increases in each case?
Reply:
a) (i) Toll prices are revised once every year effective 1 March, or closest subsequent date, determined by the Minister’s approval of the tariffs and their publication in the gazette.
a) (ii) The average CPI during the previous 12 months (November to October) or, in the case of concessions (public private partnerships), the year on year CPI, as determined by the respective concession agreements.
b) Three price increases in the past three financial years, one per year, effective 7 March 2015, 1 March 2016 and 3 March 2017. GFIP e-tolls were not adjusted in 2015; they were adjusted in 2016 and 2017.
c) Details of the increases are as follows:
- The previous year’s unrounded tariffs were adjusted for Consumer Price Index:
- The CPI for 2015: 6.0167%
- The CPI for 2016: 4.6750%
- The CPI for 2017: 6.0417%
- The adjusted tariffs were rounded off, to the closest 20 cents, 50 cents or Rand

Hadebe, Mr TZ to ask the Minister of Transport
With reference to his reply to question 2551 on 4 September 2017 pertaining to the grounding of aircraft on 18 August 2017 and 19 August 2017, (a) why was the SAA aircraft in question not in possession of a Foreign Operator’s Permit, (b) what is being done to ensure that this is not repeated and (c) what audit has been conducted to ensure that all aircraft have up-to-date Foreign Operator’s Permits in future?
Reply:
South African Civil Aviation Authority (SACAA)
((a) Foreign Operator’s Permits (FOP) are only issued to foreign air operators by the State they wish to operate. In this case SAA needs to comply with other State’s requirements in terms of FOPs. South African air operators needs to be in possession of an Air Operator’s Certificate (AOC) in terms of the Civil Aviation Regulations, and therefore SACAA does not have a jurisdiction on the FOP issued by Foreign States. The air operator namely, SAA, will therefore be in an ideal position to respond to this question.
(b) Based on the previous response this question will be best responded to by the operator or National Treasury.
(c) The SACAA conducts scheduled and random safety oversight audits and/or inspections on foreign air operators that operate in South Africa. This audit extends to all foreign aircraft flying into and out of South Africa. It is during these inspections that we verify whether the foreign aircraft are in possession of the required permit or generally qualify with all other safety and security regulations in terms of the Civil Aviation Regulations of South Africa.
In addition, the SACAA on 2 August 2017 hosted a Round Table with all Foreign Operators to educate them on all the requirements for an FOP and how to comply with the South African regulations in this regard. NW3819E

Hadebe, Mr TZ to ask the Minister of Transport
(a) What are the current arrangements regarding the shared rail infrastructure between the Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa (Prasa) and Transnet, (b)(i) how often is the specified arrangement reviewed and (ii) how are such reviews conducted, (c)(i) what is the total length of the shared infrastructure and (ii) what is the length of the rail that has been transferred for use by (aa) Prasa and (bb) Transnet, (d) what are the current financial arrangements in this regard, (e) what amounts were (i) paid to Transnet and (ii) received from Transnet in each month in the past three financial years?
Reply:
a) METRORAIL
PRASA owns the majority of rail infrastructure in the Metropolitan areas, with some rail corridors owned by Transnet on which Metrorail is currently the main operator. Arrangements are as per original allocation of assets in 1990 when PRASA was formed, while traffic over these corridors have changed since 1990 and where PRASA has become the majority user. Metrorail is dependent on Transnet for operational performance and maintenance on these corridors owned by Transnet, as follows:
KwaZulu Natal
- Umgeni – Effingham – Duff’s Road.
- Duff’s Road – Stanger.
- Train control system of entire KZN region controlled by Transnet.
Western Cape
- Cape Town – Kraaifontein/Wellington/Worcester.
- Cape Town – Monte Vista.
Gauteng
- Vereeniging – Houtheuwel.
- Greenview – Pienaarspoort.
- Oberholozer – Miday.
- Meyerton – Vereeniging.
Eastern Cape
- Entire Port Elizabeth network.
- Entire East London network.
In coastal regions such as KZN, Western Cape and Eastern Cape infrastructure ownership and train control are regarded strategic assets for Transnet in terms of access to harbours, and in other regions ownership interest for Transnet is driven by control of freight traffic through the PRASA used network.
The current infrastructure arrangements also include 167 stations owned by Transnet and used by PRASA at a nominal lease amount, plus bulk service charges payable to municipalities and recovered from PRASA.
MAIN LINE PASSENGER SERVICES (SHOSHOLOZA MEYL)
The MLPS business has been transferred to PRASA in 2008/09 whereas MLPS is totally reliant on Transnet for track access at market related costs. The MLPS business uses Transnet infrastructure for all long distance passenger rail services and PRASA is totally dependent on Transnet for its service performance and support.
The MLPS business uses 100 Transnet stations, of which some were to be transferred and others leased to PRASA. These arrangements were not concluded and PRASA pays Transnet pro rata usage for bulk services at these stations payable to municipalities.
Usage of shared infrastructure between Transnet and PRASA is governed by various agreements (Interface, Commercial and Safety agreements).
b) (i) and (ii)
Most of the current agreements between the parties have expired, while agreements have been extended until new agreements are negotiated. PRASA and Transnet have agreed to review and rationalise the agreements, including reviewing the original asset allocation between the parties based on the principle of the main user to retain ownership. The process has not been concluded and requires policy interventions on the appropriate model for asset allocation and access charge regimes for use of each other’s assets. PRASA presented that the current market related access charges proposed by Transnet is unaffordable to PRASA. The Department of Transport has commenced with a study on the determination of fair/appropriate access charges.
(c) (i) and (ii)
- Shared infrastructure Metrorail: 400km.
- Shared infrastructure MLPS: 6 000 – 8 000km
- PRASA owned rail infrastructure: 2 200km
- Transnet owned Freight Rail Infrastructure: 22 000 (including branch lines and heavy haul lines)
(d)
Interface arrangements are governed through access and commercial lease agreements.
A Mutual use agreement governs usage and charges for shared infrastructure between Metrorail and Transnet.
An Access and Haulage agreement governs usage and charges for MLPS, while MLPS is totally reliant on Transnet for network access.
Transnet has been moving to market related rates over the past 5 years. PRASA presents that the proposed rates are unaffordable to PRASA in terms of its subsidy allocations and PRASA has therefore negotiated zero percentage increases since 2011/12 until new agreements are concluded.

Notes:
- Transnet’s new price proposals for market related rates include increases of up to 150% on above rates paid by PRASA over the past 5 years.
- Due to the lack of funding for the MLPS business over the past 5 years, a considerable debt has been accrued by PRASA and owed to Transnet on the above access/service charges valued at R600m.

Capital Expansion program for Resignalling
(a)(b) (c) (d)(e)
In 2013, PRASA commenced with a 7 year rollout of the new modern signaling system to replace existing signaling interlocking, which consist mainly of obsolete mechanical and electro-mechanical systems, with electronic interlocking as the technology of the future. In the Gauteng region, Stages 1 and 2 have been integrated into one overall programme whose contract was awarded to Siemens at an investment totaling R3.8 billion (exclude inflation). In the Durban and Western Cape regions, the signalling contracts were awarded to Bombardier for R1.3 billion (exclude inflation) and Thales/Maziya for R1.8 billion (exclude inflation), respectively. The overall investment amounts to approximately R7 billion across the three regions.
The scope of work of the signaling programme across the three regions includes the construction of central control centres for trial monitoring and control. Further, the programme includes the installation of new interlocking systems to improve operational capacity, safety and flexibility.
The overall Gauteng signalling work is currently at 48.9 per cent completion against a planned target of 55.9 per cent. The lagging behind against the planned target is due to additional scope of works which include the implementation of the Automatic Train Protection system between Pienaarspoort and Pretoria station in line with the introduction of a new service. To date, 19 (of 92) stations (Midway, Lenz, Lawley, Stretford, Grasmere, Residensia, Irene, Olifantsfontein, Kaalfontein, Leralla, Tembisa, Randfontein, Robinson, Krugersdorp, Luipaardsvlei, Roodepoort, Boksburg East, Dunswart, Benoni) have already been commissioned
The Gauteng Nerve Centre (GNC) building is 100 per cent complete and already operational. The GNC currently operates Irene, Olifantsfontein, Kaalfontein, Leralla and Tembisa Corridor. The Southern line (Midway – Residensia) is next to being migrated to the GNC before the end of the current financial year. In total, eight Centralized Traffic Control Center’s (CTC’s) across Gauteng will be migrated to the GNC. The remaining mini control centres (Pretoria North, Germiston, George Goch, New Canada and Dunswart) will be migrated over a period ahead.
Project expenditure for Gauteng up to October 2017 amounts to R3 billion (including inflation adjustments).
The overall progress in Western Cape is at 68.3 percent completion, which includes design work, ordering of long lead items, pilot installations of signalling and communication, trenching and cable laying and installation of track side equipment for first two phases. The works currently underway and yet to be concluded include the construction of the Cape Metrorail Control Centre (CMCC) at Bellville and the installation of new interlocking systems at various rail lines. In addition, the works currently underway includes telecoms, power supply, OHTE and Perway adjustments across the different railway lines. Project expenditure up to October 2017 amounts to R842 million.
In KwaZulu Natal, the current works of the project includes the establishment of the Durban Central Traffic Control (CTC) at Rossborough and the installation of new interlocking systems from KwaMashu – Durban – Umlazi, Isipingo- Umbogwintini, Pinetown line and Crossmoor line. The overall Signalling work in Kwa-Zulu Natal is at 58.7 percent completion, consisting of detailed designs, track work installations, civil works, ordering of bulk material items and installation of first new point sets and signalling equipment. It is anticipated that the Pinetown line will be commissioned with a new signalling system by the fourth quarter of the current financial year. Project expenditure up to October 2017 amounts to R653 million.
Rehabilitation Program
The above renewal programme is a long term plan that will renew the system once all the projects are completed. In the interim, minor rehabilitation projects and maintenance of the existing system are taking place to ensure continuity of operations while the projects are being rolled out.
The Details of work covered during the 2017/18 financial year covers the following
- Replacement of vandalized and stolen signalling system which directly affects train services
- Constructive maintenance on worn-out signaling equipment affecting system reliability. Majority of this work is covered by a resignalling program discussed above
- Routine maintenance and minor corrective work covered under operational maintenance
The above interventions are aimed sustaining the reliability and safety of the current (old) signalling system; however there remains a backlog of maintenance and repairs. This outstanding work is caused by ongoing theft and vandalism of signalling equipment and lack of human capital to deal with obsolete equipment and constraints in the operational funding for maintenance.
These challenges are addressed through major renewal program discussed above and the capital intervention program (minor rehabilitation projects). The Gauteng signalling rehabilitation amounts to R32.5 mil, KwaZulu Natal amounts to R8mil and Western Cape amounts to R19.5mil. In total the signalling rehabilitation program amounts to R60 mil covering all three regions; the actual spending is R22mil with projects still in execution and planned to be completed by end of the financial year. The outstanding amount of R38mil will be fully utilized by end of the 2017/18 financial year with the completion of the various rehabilitation projects.

Figlan, Mr AM to ask the Minister of Transport
With reference to the bridge over the N3 that collapsed in August 2017, (a) what was the cost of the repair, (b) on what dates were inspections of the bridge undertaken in the past three financial years, (c) what did each respective report reflect, (d) who prepared the reports respectively, (e) (i) on what date was the report on the August 2017 collapse finalised, (ii) what did the report reflect and (iii) who prepared the report and (f) what early warning systems have been put in place before any bridge collapses?
Reply:
a) The bridge has not been repaired yet.
b) A detailed inspection was done in 29 July 2016 by consulting firm Arcus Gibb according to requirements of the Committee of Transport Officials (COTO) of South Africa.
c) The inspection report reported "minor" defects with minimum "relevancy". No repairs were necessary.
d) The 29 July 2016 inspection report was done by consulting firm Arcus Gibb.
e) (i) The report was completed on 31 August 2017.
(ii) The report reflected that an 18.1 ton coil of steel came off a truck and impacted the pier above the protective barrier. The pier complied with the then TPA impact requirements when the bridge was constructed in 1978. The report also highlighted that the large impact was considered an extremely rare occurrence. The report did not deal with why the steel coil came off the truck. The report concluded that the collapse of the bridge was as a result of this impact and not any maintenance issues. All reinforcing and pre-stressing steel was not corroded and lack of maintenance did not lead to the collapse.
(iii) The bridge collapse report was compiled by the consulting firm Superstructures Consulting Engineers.
f) Although the highway is monitored with 24-hour CCTV, these systems cannot detect and warn against a bridge collapse caused by vehicle accident as experienced with this incident.

1. The Gauteng Nerve Centre (GNC) building has been commissioned and was officially opened for operation in October 2015. To date, the GNC operates the Irene, Olifantsfontein, Kaalfontein, Leralla and Tembisa corridor on a new signaling system. Currently, PRASA is moving the southern line which includes Midway – Residensia Corridor into the GNC.
2. The GNC is functional and connected as stated above, in line with the intended project rollout. As more stations are equipped with the new signaling system, they will progressively be migrated to the GNC for control.
3. Yes, the GNC's traffic operators are trained in accordance with the corridor commissioning program. To date, 82 train control officers have been trained. Further, 42 engineering technicians were trained to maintain the new signaling system
4. The requirement of the GNC is to control the entire Gauteng region only, in accordance with the operational plan. It should, however, be stated that other regions such as the Western Cape and KwaZulu Natal will also be equipped with new modern control centres similar to the one in Gauteng.

1. In terms of Section 73 National Road Traffic Act 93 of 1996
The Act presumes that the owner drove or parked a vehicle, where in any prosecution in terms of the common law relating to the driving of a vehicle on a public road or in terms of this Act, it is necessary to prove who was the driver of such vehicle it shall be presumed, in the absence of evidence to the contrary that such vehicle was driven by the owner thereof.
In terms of the Criminal Procedure Act 51 of 1977, Section 56 (1)
If an accused is alleged to have committed an offence and a peace officer on reasonable grounds believes that a Magistrate's Court, on convicting such accused of that offence, will not impose a fine exceeding the amount determined by the Minister from time to time by notice in the Gazette, such peace officer may, whether or not the accused is in custody, hand to the accused a written notice which shall- (a) specify the name, the residential address and the occupation or status of the accused; (b) call upon the accused to appear at a place and on a date and at a time specified in the written notice to answer a charge of having committed the offence in question; (c) contain an endorsement in terms of Section 57 that the accused may admit his guilt in respect of the offence in question and that he may pay a stipulated fine in respect thereof without appearing in court; and (d) contain a certificate under the hand of the peace officer that he has handed the original of such written notice to the accused and that he has explained to the accused the import thereof.
(2) The business concern appoints a proxy who is deemed to be the registered owner of the vehicle. Therefore, if a fine is issued irrespective of who the driver is the fine is issued against such proxy.

Madisha, Mr WM to ask the Minister of Transport
How does he justify the 72% increase in the vehicle renewal transaction fee that he has determined to be paid to the Road Traffic Management Corporation in the 2017-18 financial year in terms of Regulation 3 of the Road Traffic Management Regulations?
Reply:
The Road Traffic Management Corporation was established by the Act of Parliament, the RTMC Act 20 of 1999. At the establishment phase it was conceptualised that the Corporation will be funded in line with provisions of Section 24 (1) of the Act which provides for and prescribes the sources of funding. The Corporation is funded in the following manner:
- Monies prescribed, subject to section 48 (1)(b) which must include transaction fees charged by the Corporation for the sale of services;
- Penalties and fines payable to the Corporation as an issuing authority in terms of section 32 of the Administrative Adjudication of Road Traffic Offences Act, 1998 (Act No. 46 of 1988);
- Interest on invested cash balances and
- Monies appropriated by Parliament.
Transaction fees were introduced in terms of the RTMC Act and approved by then Finance Minister Trevor Manuel in 2007 for the operation and maintenance of NATIS. At the introduction phase the fees were introduced at R30 and they were to increase by R6 annually.
Since the initial phase the fees were only revised by R6 in 2009 as per the provisions of Section 48 of the RTMC Act. This revision brought into effect the First Amendment of the Regulations in the Government Gazette No. 930 of 23 September 2009. The significance of the regulation amendment, was that the Regulations was amended to provide that the Minister of Transport, may henceforth, increase the Transaction Fee amount annually by Notice in the Government Gazette and in the process repealed the previous 5-year fee structure.
Subsequently there were no revisions and or increases of the transactional fees due to the impasse that related to the legal battles and other administrative challenges amongst others and the transaction fees remained R36 from 2009 to 2016.
Post the challenging period articulated above the transactional fees were only increased to R42 in January 2016, the same amount it should have been in 2010.
The current increase of R30 falls far below the required thresh-hold of required increase which should have been at R96,00 as per the then approval by the Minister of Transport. Mindful of the affordability test it become prudent that the increase be R30,00 as opposed to the once off R54, 00 increases.
The design of the NATIS has remained constant over the years and the system was never upgraded and no improvements were ever made. The current environment requires a complete overhaul and upgrading of the e-Natis and we are required by the provisions of the enabling legislation that the maintenance of the system should be done in line with the Act. The Act provides that the Corporation should ensure that phase out, where appropriate, public funding and phase in private sector investment in road traffic on a competitive basis; securing, where appropriate, full cost recovery based on the user-pays principle and introduce commercial management principles to inform and guide road traffic governance and decision-making in the interest of enhanced service provision
There is an urgent need to upgrade the architecture of the NATIS to make it more supportive to the current needs of users and registering authorities. The non-implementation of the annual increase has made the Corporation to lose the revenue of R2billion and this caring government deemed it prudent not to burden the public and not applied the increase retrospectively.

Carter, Ms D to ask the Minister of Transport
With reference to remuneration packages at the Road Traffic Management Corporation, what are the reasons for the exorbitant and above-inflation increases in the packages of (a) the Chief Executive Officer, which has increased by 31,6% from R5,950,000 in 2015-16 financial year to an enormous R7,830,000 in the 2016-17 financial year, (b) executive senior management, which have increased by an average of 19,11% and (c) non-executive Board members, which increased by an average of 22,16%?
Reply:
a) The total package of the Chief Executive Officer for 2016/17 financial year is R4, 905m compared to R4 5m in the 2015/16 financial year. This resulted into a 9% increase which was applicable to all employees. Included in the total package is the basic salary of R2,781m and the other benefits inclusive of Provident Fund, Non-Pensionable Allowance, Medical and Housing of R2,124m. Performance bonus is generally what is due to employees, however the contract of employment of the CEO makes specific provision for performance bonus, which bonus is determined by the Board from time to time and the CEO was granted R2,925m post assessment of his performance and performance of the organisation. It should be noted that the package of the CEO did not increase with 31.6% but with 9%.It should be noted that there were changes on year to year non-recurring items (performance bonus)
b) The packages of the Executive Senior Management increased by 9% across the board, which includes the basic salary and other benefits inclusive of Provident Fund/Pension Fund, Non-Pensionable Allowance, Service bonus provision, Car allowance, Medical and Housing. It should be noted that included in the Other benefits is non-recurring items like Subsistence, reimbursive kilometres and Performance bonus.
c) There was no increase to the individual remuneration (retainer and meeting attendance) of non-executive Board members. It should be noted that the increase reflected when comparing the financial years relates to all non-executive Board members and meeting attendance year to year as they are not the same as a result a bottom line comparison does not give a true reflection. The following are the main reasons for year to year differences in the total amount for all totals non-executive Board members:
- two non-executive Board members (DH Ewertse and TMN Kgomo) served the full term of the financial year compared to 2015/16. The two members were appointed with effect from 1 December 2015 and served four (4) months in 2015/16, as the remaining period before the end of the financial year.
- three of the non-Executive Board Members retired in December 2016, and replaced by three new non-executive Board members appointed with effect from January 2017.

2 (a) In line with legislation and prescripts that regulate Performance Management and Development System in the Public Service, at least 1,5% is annually budgeted for payment of performance bonuses for employees. However, the Minister has the prerogative, in special circumstances to exceed the 1,5% allocated budget.
It is based on the above background that the 2017/18 projected amount for payment of performance bonuses to the deserving employees’ amount to: R6, 750,315.00.
2 (b) The Department is currently not in a position to provide detailed breakdown of the bonus that will be paid out to each employee in each salary level in the 2017-18 financial year, as this is dependent on the individual performance outcome which will only be determined at the end of the financial year (i.e. 31 May 2018).
