Hunsinger, Dr CH to ask the Minister of Transport
(1)Whether any income generated by the Road Traffic Management Corporation (RTMC) was transferred to the National Revenue Fund via her department since 1 April 2007, in line with the National Treasury’s 2007 Practice Note; if not, in each case, why not; if so, what amount of income generated by the RTMC was transferred to the National Revenue Fund during the specified period; (2) whether any income from transaction fees paid by the RTMC to the National Revenue Fund were claimed back by (a) her department and/or (b) the RTMC since1 April 2007; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details; (3) whether any decision was taken at any stage to stop the transfer of income generated by the RTMC to the National Revenue Fund, contrary to the specified Practice Note, in order to assist the Electronic National Traffic Information System to become self-funded; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, (a) why, (b) what are the relevant details and (c) what steps has the RTMC taken to rectify the situation; (4) howwill the budget allocation of the RTMC in the 2016-17 financial year be affected by the payment to Tasima as per the court order and the undertaking in her department’s 2015-16 annual report that the RTMC is to reimburse her department for having made this payment?
Reply:
1. The matter relating to transferring of the income generated by the Road Traffic Management Corporation (RTMC) to the revenue fund was laid to rest by the FFC resolution. We attached the FFC resolution for ease of reference.
2. The RTMC is a creature of statute and any monies generated and or income made by the corporation is regulated by the act that established the Corporation. It is therefore prudent to consider the resolution of the FFC as attached above.
3. The FFC resolution attached offer an explanation in relation to these matters.
4. The payment to Tasima post 2012 was per the various court orders against the department and no court order was ever made against the RTMC for the payment of theeNaTIS to the Tasima. Therefore there could be no legal ground or basis on which RTMC can be made to reimburse the monies paid.

Mulaudzi, Adv TE to ask the Minister of Transport
Did (a) her department and/or (b) any entity reporting to her conduct feasibility studies on Vuwani Airport in Limpopo, which is not in operation and remains a white elephant; if not, (i) why not and (ii) who is responsible for the maintenance of the specified airport?
Reply:
(a) The National Department of Transport has not conducted feasibility studies on Vuwani Airport in Limpopo.
(b) The Limpopo Department of Transport has conducted a pre-feasibility study for the Vuwani/P.R. Mphephu Airport during 2010. The study was part of the Limpopo Airlift Strategy, with the purpose of providing direction and guidance for the development of aviation in the province. Five generic strategies were identified in determining the status of each of the airports considered at the time, as follows:
1. Grounded: Nothing should be done as there is no, or very little potential, now or in the future, for aviation development.
2. Delayed: The development of aviation will only take place in the long term and is awaiting other matters to be put in place.
3. Boarding: There is some market potential, which should be left to the market to action and develop.
4. Take-off: There is good market potential which would be picked up by the market with minimum intervention.
5. Catapulted Take-off: There is market potential, but the development of aviation will only take place with significant intervention from government.
The Vuwani/P.R Mphephu Airport fell within the third category. The Limpopo Department of Transport decided to wait a few years so that further analysis could be done on the Vuwani/P.R Mphephu Airport as well as the other public airports within the province. Such analysis will consider developments that are taking place at, amongst others, Lephalale, Musina and its SEZ status, and the Tubatse area.
The Limpopo Department of Transport is currently collaborating with the Department of Public Enterprises in determining if some of these airports can be re-commissioned and the extent of improvements that are required to enable re-commissioning. The Limpopo Aviation Technical Stream has been established and various meetings have already been held. The Province is currently developing the Terms of References for the viability assessment, which should be conducted no later than the 2017/2018 financial year. This will provide an indication if P.R. Mphephu Airport will be viable and the costs associated with its re-commissioning, should the indication be positive. Other options will be explored depending on the outcome of the viability study.
(b) (i) N/A
(ii) The airport is an asset of the Limpopo Department of Public Works, Roads and Infrastructure, although the buildings are utilised by the Limpopo Department of Transport. The Limpopo Department of Transport has not allocated any maintenance budget pending the outcome of the viability study.

Hunsinger, Dr CH to ask the Minister of Transport
What (a) are the full reasons for the recent erection of stop signs on the N12 between the R28 and R558 at Zuurbekom in the Westonaria Local Municipality in Gauteng, (b) traffic impact studies were undertaken (i) to ascertain the necessity for the stop signs and (ii) since the erection of the stop signs, (c) were the results of each of the impact studies in each case and (d) were the costs involved in erecting the stop signs?
Reply:
a) The N12 West route from Naturena in Johannesburg to the Northwest Province border at Fochville has been identified as the most fatal major route in Gauteng. The intersections in the Zuurberkom area have been identified as the most hazardous locations (HAZLOCs) on the N12. The factors that contribute to the dangers at these intersections include the following:
- Excessive speed on the N12, especially since the recent rehabilitation of the road. Traffic speed monitoring has indicated that almost 40% of vehicles are travelling above the speed limit of 80km/h in this area;
- High volumes of long trucks and other slow moving traffic crossing the N12, especially in the areas adjacent to the silos;
- The area adjacent to the N12 in the Zuurberkom area that is developing, resulting in high volumes of pedestrians and cyclists crossing the N12’
- Reckless and inconsiderate drivers behaviours;
- High accident rates and fatalities in the Zuurberkom area, especially after the completion of the road rehabilitation (the number of fatalities had more than doubled from 2015 to 2016)
The installation of 4way stops at these intersections has been identified as the most appropriate measure to address these problem at these stage. In the longer term the installation of traffic signals at these intersections will be considered.
b) (i) Yes, traffic studies, investigations and inspections were undertaken by the Gauteng Department of Roads and Transport and the Gauteng Department of Community Safety in consultation with the local law enforcement agencies as part of the West Rand Rims (road accident management system)
(ii) Yes, the situation is being monitored closely and regular inspections are being carried out.
c) The study confirmed the need for the 4-way stop and indicated the need for further measures such as overhead lighting, rumble strips and continuous traffic law enforcement in this area
d) No separate record of the costs for the instillation were kept as they were installed as part of the routine maintenance activities.

Mulaudzi, Adv TE to ask the Minister of Transport
In light of the unsuccessful implementation of the e-tolling of freeways in the Gauteng Province, what measures is she putting in place to ensure that the Government cancels e-tolling and seeks other means to fund the cost?
Reply:
There is no decision to cancel e-tolling which is part of the User Pay Policy.
It must be noted that the Department will continue implementing the current policy, the “User Pay” which is also a norm in the whole world and will proceed with exploring other infrastructure financing models that would alleviate pressure on the fiscus, but get good level of service of all categories of our road network.
It is not true that the e-tolling of the GFIP is unsuccessful in its implementation, we need to address the issue of civil disobedience and allow law enforcement agencies to play their part.

Description |
Conclusion |
20 May 2011 |
“I would like to report that there was a tender irregularity with the awarding of the Office automation tender to a Supplier. The current CEO, of Supplier, is a blood relative to one of your ACSA employees, Group Specialist - Procurement Services. In the tender document, this relationship was not declared as per terms and requirements stated. Secondly, this Supplier was given an opportunity to re-submit pricing whilst other vendors were not given that opportunity.” |
No adverse findings and the investigation was closed and feedback sent to whistleblower. |
20 October 2011 |
This memo relates to the approved investigations related to the note sent to one of the ACSA Debtors allegedly by an ACSA to change the ACSA Bank details into which the Debtor should pay the amounts due. The email was received on the 20th October 2011. |
No ACSA employee was found to have been implicated and there was no loss of cash as the scam was unsuccessful. Note: A company-wide investigation on the state of payments and possible irregularities was launched using Deloitte during 2012. |
29 May 2011 |
This memo relates to the investigations undertaken as a response to the email received from Marelize Labuschagne on 29th April 2011. The author suspected that there might have been an “internal link” on the fraudulent payments to a Business Connection’s Standard Bank Account. |

01 August 2012 |
This investigation was referred to Internal Audit by the Group Executive: Commercial on 01 August 2012. This request came about after a tender (IDA/11/11) of the ORTIA Arts, Crafts and Curio Retail Stores was cancelled and notifications to this effect dated 20 March 2012 were sent to the two Bidders. |
The bases used for the cancellation of the Tender were valid as per ACSA Procurement Policy; however, the process followed by ORTIA Procurement to cancel the Bid had general weaknesses and flaws that were observed. Corrective active was recommended and implemented. |
30 July 2012 |
This report relates to the investigation conducted after a tip-off was received by Internal Audit on the alleged unauthorised removal of some furniture from the premises by an employee. |

19 February 2013 |
A call was logged in relation to the following allegations:
|
The following recommendations were put forward: The King Shaka Electrical department team are experiencing challenges with regard to team dynamics, as is evident in the allegations regarding favouritism and preferential treatment. This is compounded by the fact that there are aspects of policies and procedures which have not been adhered to particularly as it relates to overtime. In addition the conduct with regard to procurement related aspects also indicates non adherence to policies and procedures. These non-adherences may be construed as subversion to the system of internal controls. Subversion of the system of internal controls could lead to irregular transactions being perpetuated and remaining undetected which will result in financial losses for ACSA. We recommend that King Shaka International Airport (KSIA) management act decisively and swiftly on matters and recommendations noted during this investigation and raised in this report. This will contribute towards the cultivation of a culture of compliance to the Policies and procedures throughout its business. |

12 September 2014 |
OR TAMBO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT: M&E requested and received a quote via the SSC, for disposable ear protectors that appeared high in value. Furthermore, the recommended supplier was not in the business of selling such goods. M&E challenged the SSC about this and obtained their own quotation which was 7.5 times less than the quote. It appeared that an employee in SSC could be conflicted as the name supplied on the SSC quote belonged to an employee that was actually a buyer for ACSA. |
A director check with the CIPC/CIPRO indicated that the employee implicated was not a director or shareholder in the company referred to in the allegation. No further investigation is required in this matter. |

Internal Audit consulted with SCM and was informed that the tender has not yet been finalised for issue. The RFP document was still in draft as SCM were finalising the technical specifications and evaluating criteria for the tender.

Internal Audit met with the caller and suggested that the matter be raised by her with the SAPS Commercial Crimes unit as well as SARS as they are better equipped to deal with her matter. The modus operandi is very similar to the 419 scams that have been comprehensively covered on TV documentaries, newspapers and the radio. |
28 July 2014 |

The ACSA BEC did identify the two employees during the tender evaluation process and obtained a legal opinion on the restraint of trade and cool-off periods applicable to these employees. The legal opinion stated that since no restraint of trade or cool-off period agreements were signed with these individuals, ACSA could not prevent them from seeking employment after termination of their services or prevent them from forming part of a company that was bidding on tenders to provide goods and services to ACSA. |

(2) ATNS endeavour to pay emerging suppliers within 15 days however, sometimes due to logistical problems there are slight delays that relate to invoices where, a supplier would present an invoice that does not reflect invoice number, ATNS VAT number and it becomes difficult for ATNS to pay invoices that do not meet ATNS specifications. ATNS is doing all it can to resolve such issues urgently so that suppliers are paid on time.

Tarabella - Marchesi, Ms NI to ask the Minister of Transport
What (a) are the full reasons why the SA National Roads Agency (SANRAL) approached the Constitutional Court regarding the tolling of the N1 and N2 highways in the Western Cape and (b) amount has SANRAL spent on legal expenses on the specified matter to date?
Reply:
(a) At the heart of the appeal is the question of condonation of an unreasonable delay on the part of the City of Cape Town, as an organ of state and its failure to provide an explanation for its unreasonable delay in reviewing the decisions taken concerning the N1/N2 Project (the Project). There is no question that the City knew that the decisions had been taken at the time that they were taken, that SANRAL was acting in furtherance of those decisions, and that the City stood by and did nothing even though it knew of this. It offered no explanation for why it did nothing. The Project was more than a decade in the making. Monies have already been spent in implementing and carrying out certain works concerning the Project. The City, being well aware of the Project, delayed unreasonably in bringing its application – almost a decade later. The City has never disputed that it became aware of the SANRAL decisions to declare the roads as toll roads when they were published in 2008. The peremptory 180-day period referred to in section 7 of the Promotion of Administrative Justice Act, (PAJA), (Act 3 of 2000) expired during March 2009
The N1 / N2 Winelands Project was conceived to improve the link between the Western Cape and the rest of the country, and substantial time, effort and investment had been put into its development. The Winelands Toll Road Project is a strategic infrastructure project that is necessary to sustain and develop the Western Cape economy and brings enormous economic development for the Western Cape Province. It was also earmarked to facilitate the movement of large volumes of export and import freight, business, tourism, recreational and commuter traffic which is vital to growing the South African economy.
(b) I must hastily point out to this honourable House and to the honourable member, Ms N I Tarabella Marchesi MP, that the Appeal as lodged by SANRAL is also against the costs order awarded and it would be negligent and misleading of me to mention a figure which the Appeal Court might overturn, my suggestion therefore is that we await the finalisation of the Appeal.

De Freitas, Mr MS to ask the Minister of Transport

The Minister gave the deadline of on or before 31 January 2017 for the repayment of all the money.

Cassim, Mr Y to ask the Minister of Transport
(1)(a) Why did the SA National Roads Agency invite tenders for the demolition and reconstruction of the weighbridge at Senekal in the Free State, (b) which companies submitted bids for the specified project, (c) what amount did each company bid, (d)(i) which company was awarded the contract and (ii) why, (e) what are the time frames for the project, (f) what amounts have been paid to date, (g) why was the project stopped and (h) how will the project be completed; (2) how are overloaded vehicles weighed in the meantime?
Reply:
1. (a) The Free State Department of Transport and the South African National Roads Agency SOC Limited (SANRAL) have an overload control agreement which allows for the provision and upgrading of weigh bridges along the national routes in the Free State Province. The objective is to ensure that vehicle loads are within the legal limits; as to preserve the road infrastructure. The Senekal Traffic Control Centre was one of the traffic control centres which was identified for upgrading. The existing facility was limited in terms of size and capacity and was not sufficient to provide effective overload control. The demolishing and reconstruction proved to be more cost effective than changing the existing facility to the extent required. SANRAL went out to open tender for this upgrade, as required in terms of the Treasury Regulations.
(b),(c) The construction companies that submitted tenders and their tendered prices are listed in the table below:

(b) A National Structure was established. It is made up of the youth from all provinces and different organisations ranging from businesses, NGOs, (b) faith-based organisations, etc. These were also co-opted into the structure.
(c) The term of office of the elected body is one year. They have the responsibility of developing a programme that will focus on youth and road safety. In developing such a programme, they will take into account what is being done in the fraternity and what the shortcomings area as well as coming up with innovative ways of appealing to the youth. The programmes have to be all inclusive and accomodative of divergent youth of the country.
(d) The RTMC has been mandated to provide support to the national structure, with other road entities interacting with the structure as well. The provinces are expected to play a similar role with regards to supporting the youth structures in respective provinces.
