Spies, Ms ERJ to ask the Minister of Health
What (a) number of official international trips is (i) he and (ii) his deputy planning to undertake in the 2019-22 medium term expenditure framework, (b) will the (i) destination, (ii) date, (iii) purpose and (iv) number of persons who will travel with the delegation be and (c) is the detailed breakdown of the expected cost of (i) flights, (ii) accommodation and (iii) any other expenses in each case?
Reply:
The attached Annexure 1 indicates detailed information as requested. It should be noted that the Minister has a prerogative to delegate to the Deputy Minister any trip or invitation he is not in a position to honour.
With regards to cost implications to the trips, it is not possible to provide such information only until the logistical arrangements are done. It must also be noted that not all the trips indicated are funded from the State, but are sponsored by the relevant host governments and/or organisations.
END.

Van Dyk, Ms V to ask the Minister of Communications
(1) Whether the Freelance Contract for Performers announced by the SA Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) on 27 August 1997 between the SABC and actors is the final, legal and binding contract; if not, what legislation was put in its place; (2) Whether production companies are altering contracts at will; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, what steps is the SABC taking to ensure that the correct contract is used at all times; (3) Whether the contract may be amended without prior written approval by the SABC; if so, what are the relevant details; (4) Why do actors allegedly not receive remuneration in line with the 15% received by producers and 10% received by writers in the commercial exploitation of programmes when sold to other television stations; (5) Whether the SABC has agreed to negotiate the fee in giving effect to clause 7.2 of the actors’ contract; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, why does the SABC not agree with the proposal of the SA Guild of Actors to at least set the actors’ portion at 15 %?
Reply:
I have been advised by SABC as follows:
- Yes, the Freelance Contract for Performers of 27 August 1997 between the SABC and actors is indeed the final, legal and binding contract.
- No, production companies are not altering contracts at will, however, should any alterations be required those will be effected after agreement between the SABC and affected company.
- No alternations may be made without the SABC’s consent. The SABC issues the performers’ agreement and advises specifically that clauses 5 and 7 cannot be altered without prior approval of the SABC. [Clause 5 and 7 are attached]
- The payment of actors is prescribed in clause 7 of the Agreement in question. The SABC is merely adhering to the percentages set out in the agreement.
- There is no new agreement in place and the SABC is complying with the stipulated payment of 2%. The SABC can enter into new negotiations but it would have to be with all representatives in the Industry and not only with SAGA.

Mbhele, Mr ZN to ask the Minister of Communications
What was the rationale for the implementation of the State Information Technology Agency Transversal Contract 2007/2015 for the provision of printer consumables, (b) what promotional marketing efforts were undertaken to invite prospective service providers to apply for the contract’s preferred supplier list, (c) why was sufficient opportunity not given to prospective service providers to tender for the contract, (d) why is the contract being implemented so late in its scheduled term and (e)(i) which companies are on the preferred suppliers list for the contract, (ii) in which province do they operate and (iii) what criteria were applied to select them?
Reply:
I have been advised by the SITA as follows:
(a) The rationale was to afford new service providers an opportunity to respond to the bid, new brands to be added and afford an opportunity to existing service providers to add additional provinces to their offerings.
Secondly, to get Government volume discount from Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and to support the transformation in the ICT sector by developing existing and new suppliers/partners through training, certification, accreditation and SMME incubation. This includes skills transfer to partners/resellers to build skills base in the ICT sector.
(b) RFB 2007/2015 was published through an open market on 04 December 2015. The bid was published in the following platforms:
- Government Tender Bulletin
- National Treasury portal
- SITA Website
In terms of the Treasury Regulations, bids are published in Government Tender Bulletin and in any other media. So SITA website was used as an additional media for advertisement.
(c) The bid was published on 04 December 2015 and closed on 29 January 2016 and the advertisement was prior to the annual closure period. The Vendor Briefing Session was held on 10 December 2015. The minimum period for advertisement of bids is 21 days and the bid was published for more than 21 days.
(d) SCM received a tasking from the Department of Public Service and Administration (DPSA) on the 13 November 2014. SITA embarked on extensive stakeholder consultations to ensure the strategic approach of economic transformation was all encompassing, which resulted in a delay in publishing the bid. The specification was developed by SITA and approved by DPSA. An open tender process was used for sourcing the required solution. A competitive bidding process allowed bidders in the market to participate and compete fairly.
(e) (i) and (ii) A detailed list of accredited suppliers per province and brand is attached as Annexure A
(iii) SITA evaluated RFB 2007/2015 as follows:
- Screening of mandatory documents
- Technical Evaluation
- Mandatory Requirements
- Price Evaluation/Mark up %

George, Dr DT to ask the Minister of Finance
Whether an estimation of the size of the illicit economy has been conducted; if not, why not; if so, (a) what is the estimated size of the illicit economy and (b) what steps are being taken to tax the illicit economy effectively?
Reply:
The elicit economy is a continuously changing landscape and a function of the overall levels of societal and tax compliance.
SARS is in the process of conducting scientific and evidence-based research to quantify the size of the illicit economy for South Africa and as such there is no official position yet on the size of the illicit economy. The study also seeks to identify, quantify illicit/illegal activities taking place in both the formal and informal economy. The study will further involve identifying, locating, understanding, registering, managing and monitoring illicit businesses in their different forms and sizes in the illicit economy.
The illicit economy ranges from the underground economy, which operates outside of the rules and regulations of the country, to organised crime. It involves money, goods or value gained from illegal and generally unethical activity. The activities and/or transactions that occur in the underground economy are illegal for various reasons. Transactions in the underground economy are illegal either because the good or service being traded is illegal or because an otherwise licit transaction does not comply with government reporting requirements. People who work in the underground economy do not declare their incomes. In other words, the tax authorities have no official records of their activities or transactions. These activities generate a wide range of economic, social, environmental or political harms and contribute to the tax gap.
(a) The outcome of the comprehensive research will assist in determining the size of each illegal trading item. In the absence of SARS own research findings, It is difficult
to put a value to the illicit economy. The research studies, which commenced in November 2018, are expected to be completed by March 2020.
(b) In line with the overall SARS strategy of discouraging non-compliance (and incentivizing good behavior) through education and/or enforcement action as executed by its Enforcement divisions, and in recognition of the need for alternative enforcement responses to non-compliance within the illicit economy, SARS established an interim capability to conduct investigations into the illicit economy. The capability executes integrated enforcement investigations and comprises of multi-disciplinary and collaborative investigations and enforcement debt recovery actions, supported by legal experts and data analytics. The tax and customs legislation administered by the Commissioner for SARS (for example, the Tax Administration Act, 2011) governs the conduct of all units within SARS.

Gwarube, Ms S to ask the Minister of Health
What amount has been spent on each pilot project of the National Health Insurance since the inception of the programme?
Reply:
The health system strengthening initiatives were implement in the NHI pilot districts. There initiatives were funded through conditional grants. The grant funding related to the following activities:
The ward based primary healthcare outreach teams which were responsible for the provision of primary healthcare to families/households; community outreach services; preventative, promotive, curative, rehabilitative and palliative services.
The Integrated school health programme focused on screening of health-related barriers to learning such as vision, hearing, cognitive, and related developmental impairments.
General Practitioners and Pharmacy Assistants were contracted to primary care facilities to support clinics in service delivery.
The ideal clinic realisation model was introduced in response to the existing insufficiencies in quality of PHC services and to lay the foundation for NHI implementation.
The centralized chronic medicines dispensing and distribution model involves the centralized dispensing of medicines for chronic stable patients and the collection of the medicine at a point close to patients,
The purpose of the health patient registration system is to serve as an online registry of all patients using healthcare services in South Africa that can be accessed at any facility to provide health workers with patients’ demographic information and their most up-to-date health records.
The stock visibility system is used in PHC clinics to monitor and report on stock availability levels for essential medicines like ARVs, TB medication and vaccines. The purpose of the SVS is to enable more informed decision-making and proactive stock management at the PHC facility level.
The infrastructure grant was intended to fund nursing college infrastructure as well as the maintenance, repair and construction of primary care facilities

Singh, Mr N to ask the Minister of Health
Whether, in light of the exorbitantly high cost of cancer medication in the Republic and in comparison to other countries such as India, he will consider removing the patent laws on cancer medication and treatment in order for low-cost generics to be produced to enable the majority of South Africans to have access to affordable treatment; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details?
Reply:
A patent allows the pharmaceutical manufacturer an exclusivity over the sale of a medicine. During this time the manufacturer price is very high and unaffordable to low and middle income countries. Companies argue that the high prices are intended to recoup their costs of research and development, however these companies have been reluctant to be transparent about such costs. There is much evidence to suggest that the cost of research and development is actually much lower than claims made by the pharmaceutical industry.
South Africa has been at the forefront of challenging the high prices of medicines globally including where patents are the barrier to access. There currently are legislative provisions which would allow us to access a medicine that is protected by a patent. These provisions are included in Section 15C of the Medicines and Related Substances Control Act, 1965 (Act No. 101 of 1965). It is important to bear in mind that in order for one to access medicines using Section 15C, such a medicine must first be registered by the South African Health Products Regulatory Authority (SAHPRA) in terms of efficacy, safety and quality. SAHPRA will consider an application of a generic even while a patent remains in effect. So the provisions to address patent barriers already exist in South Africa however a product must be registered by SAHPRA before we can implement such a provision.
South Africa has never had to use the patent legislation to access a lower priced generic medicine. The patent holders have in many cases negotiated either through bilateral agreements or have participated in the Medicines Patent Pool which provides manufacturers in developing countries like South Africa access lower cost generic antiretroviral (ARV) drugs at an affordable price. This has allowed us to afford the world’s largest ARV programme.

Mileham, Mr K to ask the Minister of Finance
Whether the (a) import and/or (b) production of electric vehicles attract any additional (i) taxes or (ii) tariffs beyond the normal company tax and/or import duties levied by the Government; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, what is the (aa) purpose of such taxes and/or tariffs and (bb) total amount of taxes and/or tariffs levied in each case?
Reply:
The payment of import or excise duties is based on national policy
determined by the Department of Trade and Industry (the dti), as well as on
international trade instruments to which South Africa is a signatory. Robust
methodologies are followed to ensure that all commodities are classified
correctly, and that the South African Revenue Service collects the correct
amount of revenue due to the state. Accordingly, the payment of import or
excise duties is based on a tariff rate applicable to a specific commodity as
determined by the dti.
(a)(b)(i)(ii) In the case of the import and/or production of electric vehicles, Ordinary
Customs Duties on importation and Ad Valorem Excise duties, payment of
duties based on the customs value of the imported goods, levied by
government are applicable. There are no other additional taxes payable on
electric vehicles. All Vehicles are classified in Chapter 87 of Schedule 1 of
the Customs and Excise Act 91 of 1964. The rates of duty on electric
vehicles range
between 0% and 25%.
It is worth noting that there is no differentiation between the treatment of the conventional fuel combustion and electric vehicles with regards to applicable Customs procedures, the rates and tax-types levied during importation or manufacturing locally, for as long as the vehicles belong to the same categories (that is, whether it’s a bus, truck, ordinary passenger vehicle, etc.).
However, because SARS administer Ad Valorem Excise duties, which considers both weight and value, the mass of the vehicle will invariably impact on the rate of the duty applicable. Thus, smaller cars may attract smaller rates of duty, although the value may be a differentiating factor if such a smaller vehicle is much more expensive. For an example, an electric passenger vehicle and fuel combustion engine passenger vehicle will attract the same rate of duty or excise if the two are of the same mass and value.

De Villiers, Mr MJ to ask the Minister of Social Development
What (a) number of official international trips is (i) she and (ii) her deputy planning to undertake in the 2019-22 medium term expenditure framework, (b) will the (i) destination, (ii) date, (iii) purpose and (iv) number of persons who will travel with the delegation be and (c) is the detailed breakdown of the expected cost of (i) flights, (ii) accommodation and (iii) any other expenses in each case?
Reply:
The Minister and Deputy Minister of Social Development attend a number of international meetings carrying out various obligations representing South Africa and the carrying pout the mandate of the department. These could be bilateral or multilateral in nature, i.e. at the Southern African Development Community (SADC) regional level; African Union/ continental level, at a BRICS or even United Nations Level amongst others.
These meetings do not all have pre-determined dates and the Ministry responds to these based on their strategic nature towards the fulfilment of the DSD mandate and carrying out the national agenda.
The purpose of each of these meeting s also differ with the associated themes but are aligned with the mandate of the Department. The Ministry adheres to stick financial behaviour in line with the National Treasury regulations and prescripts when determining the delegations to such meetings and is thus prudent on all related costs thereto.

Masiko, Ms F to ask the Minister in the Presidency for Women, Youth and Persons with Disabilities
What programmes does her department have in place to preserve, advance and promote women’s dignity and health, particularly during critical feminine cycles when indigent women and girls cannot access the much-needed products such as sanitary pads?
Reply:
The Department of Women, Youth and Persons with Disabilities (DWYPD) has developed an Implementation Framework on Sanitary Dignity in an effort to ensure that indigent girls and women are afforded the opportunity to manage menstruation in a knowledgeable, safe and dignified manner. This Framework was launched on 28 February 2019 and approved by Cabinet on 18 September, 2019. The DWYPD is responsible for the coordination, monitoring and evaluation of the Framework. The key objective of the Framework is to provide for an integrated and coordinated responsive Government programme aimed at the provision of sanitary products free of charge to indigent girls and women in order to achieve universal access to sanitary products to the most vulnerable women and girls. In South Africa, 26% of women aged 9-49 years live below the food poverty line. Therefore the priority persons who will benefit from the implementation of this Framework are indigent women and girls who have reached puberty, commenced menstruation and who:
- attend schools ranked at quintile 1, 2 and 3, special needs schools and farm schools. The option of expanding to quintiles 4 and 5 will be based on the results of a needs assessment and availability of resources;
- attend Post-School Education and Training institutions[1];
- live in child-headed households;
- have been admitted to any state-owned institutions, hospitals, orphanages, places of care, prisons and places of safety;
- vulnerable indigent women and girls not in State Institutions.
- have been identified by an Indigent Sanitary Management Committee (ISMC) or Provincial Sanitary Dignity Committee (PSDC), provided that the relevant ISMC or PSDC must submit a motivation to the Sanitary Dignity Oversight Committee (SDOC) for the inclusion of such persons as beneficiaries of this Framework and such persons may only be provided with sanitary products if so, approved by the SDOC.
DWYPD leads the implementation of the Framework with the support and guidance of the multi-sectoral government national task team. DWYPD has participated the following interventions:
- The implementation of the framework is a phased in approach and has started with girls in quintiles 1-3 schools. DWYPD submitted a request to National Treasury for the 19/20 financial year to pilot the sanitary dignity implementation framework in quintiles 1-3 schools. The National Treasury made an allocation of R157 million through provincial equitable share to either the Department of Education or the Department of Social Development. The provinces are currently implementing the programmes and DWYPD is responsible for coordinating, monitoring and evaluation.

Mente-Nkuna, Ms NV to ask the Minister in the Presidency for Women, Youth and Persons with Disabilities
What number of (a) safe homes for abused women and children does her department have in the Republic, (b) the specified safe homes are operational and (c) referrals has her Office done in collaboration with the departments of police, health and social development?
Reply:
The Department does not provide safe homes or shelters for abused women and children. The Department of Social Development (DSD) provides funding to the shelters for victims of crime and violence. A shelter is a residential facility that accommodates all victims of crime and violence as well as their care. DSD has also established the Khuseleka One Stop Centre model to provide services by various stakeholders to the victims of crime and violence including domestic violence. It is a community-based center where victims of crime and violence receive services through a multi-disciplinary approach comprising teams of social workers, nurses, doctors, police officers, court preparation officers and prosecutors.
In addition, DSD sets up White Doors/Safe Spaces of Hope to provide temporary shelter and a safe space to victims of gender based violence, mainly, the most vulnerable groups such as women and children but not excluding men. The White Door is a 72 hours’ facility responding to the challenge of accessing available shelters for victims whose lives are in danger. This service serves as an emergency temporary intervention and in some cases overnight (24 hours), containment facilities offering accommodation and practical support to the victims. White Doors/ Safe Spaces are established to counteract gender-based violence and to encourage community participation whereby community members identify houses within their communities to be utilized as safe spaces for victims of violence for crisis interventions.

Hill-Lewis, Mr GG to ask the Minister of Finance
(1) What (a) is the total amount of sovereign-guaranteed debt that was raised for the Gauteng Freeway Improvement Project (GFIP), (b) was the coupon and duration of the bonds and (c) amount has been paid on the bonds (i) in each of the past five financial years and (ii) since 1 April 2019; (2) Whether any new bonds have been raised in order to roll over the credit on the original bonds; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, what are the relevant details; (3) What has he found to be the impact of low revenue collection on (a) the credit rating of the SA National Roads Agency and (b) the interest rate of raising a further bond; (4)(a) What are the details of the National Treasury’s proposed financing model for the second phase of the GFIP and (b) by what date will additional bonds be raised in this regard?
Reply:
- (a), (b), (c) (i) and (ii),
SANRAL does not report their guarantee usage in terms of drawdowns on a project basis and as such, the only amount available is the total guaranteed debt of SANRAL, which represents exposure for government. As at 31 March 2019, this amount was R39.5 billion, which includes accrued interest and revaluations on inflation linked debt.
2. Yes, new bonds have been issued in the 2019/20 financial year. All bonds that have been issued in the 2019/20 financial year were issued under the R31.9 billion guaranteed Domestic Medium-Term Note. These were issued through private placements
The first issuance was a floating rate note (HWF11 bond) and was issued on 15 July 2019 amounting to R2 billion (nominal). The bond has a maturity date of 15 July 2022 and has interest payments linked to the 3-month JIBAR that is paid quarterly and a margin of 147 basis points over the JIBAR rate. This was a new note.
The second bond issuance was the HWAY35 bond on 15 July 2019 amounting R200 million of which the HWAY35 was an existing bond introduced initially in 2010. The bond has a maturity date of 31 July 2035. The bond has a fixed coupon rate of 9.25% per annum payable semi-annually in arrears.
The third bond issuance was on 29 July 2019 and was a floating rate note/bond (HWF12 bond) that has a maturity date of 29 July 2022. Amounts raised through this issuance was R1.650 billion. The interest payments are linked to the 3-month JIBAR and are paid quarterly. The interest is paid at JIBAR plus a margin of 147 basis points. This was a new note.
The fourth bond issuance was also on 29 July 2019 and was an issuance amount of R150 million related on the HWAY35 fixed rate bond (the details of the bond are as above).
3. (a),
At this point the full impact of the low revenue collection is unknown and it will become clear once the audited financial results are made public. However, the loss in income due to GFIP in 2017/18 had to be covered through the fiscus by an amount of R463 million. In terms of the impact on SANRAL’s credit rating, the entity’s rating agency has a better understanding of what the impact of lower toll collections will be and will consider other variables.
(b),
It is difficult to attribute the cost of funding or SANRAL’s interest rates to one variable or factor. However, what National Treasury has established is that SANRAL, similar to other state-owned entities have been borrowing at higher interest rates relative to their peers. For instance, SANRAL’s recent issuances have been at higher interest rates compared to corporates with similar credit ratings. As an illustration, corporates with similar credit ratings to SANRAL (i.e. AAA credit rating by Moody’s) who have issued floating rate bonds with similar tenures (3 years) have been borrowing at 3 months JIBAR and spreads of between 100 basis points and 145 basis points with no Government guarantee. However, SANRAL on the back of a Sovereign guarantee or Government guarantee borrowed at 3 months JIBAR and a spread of 147 basis points. What is clear is that the cost of funding is high relative to corporates but it is unclear if this relates to the low toll collections.
4. (a) and (b)
Government officials together with SANRAL are engaging on the model for GFIP and tolling as a whole. Various options are being considered and will be communicated by the relevant officials. That includes the funding model.

ROBBERY OF OFFICIAL FIREARM: LIEUTENANT GENERAL SHIVURI, PROVINCIAL COMMISSIONER: NORTHERN CAPE
- In a letter dated 2019-09-10 from Lieutenant General Shivuri, the Provincial Commissioner of Northern Cape and addressed to the National Commissioner, Lieutenant General Shivuri reported the robbery of his official firearm.
2. In the factual report it is mentioned that on 2019-09-08 Lieutenant General Shivuri was frequenting an informal car wash in the Kimberley CBD in order to have his car washed. He further alludes to the fact that two boys started to wash the vehicle whilst he was still inside the vehicle busy putting loose items (including his official firearm) in a brown carry bag. One of the boys grabbed the brown carry bag and ran away. The firearm was later recovered and three suspects were arrested on account of the robbery.
3. In a subsequent question in Parliament, dr. Groenewald of the FF Plus asked the Minister of Police whether any steps have been taken ”apa/nsf a certain officer whose firearm was left in the vehicle and then stolen while the specified person was away from the vehicle.”
4. The version put forward by Lieutenant General Shivuri does not prima facie constitute misconduct as the firearm was still under his control when it was robbed. According to the information in the question asked by dr. Groenewald, the firearm was stolen whilst the person was away from the vehicle. If the last mentioned allegation is found to be factually correct, Lieutenant General Shivuri i a facie contra\/ened the provisions of the Firearms Control Act, 2000 which also constitutes misconduct.
5. In order for the National Commissioner to decide whether any steps should be instituted against Lieutenant General Shivuri, copies of the statements filed in Kimberley CAS196/09/09 were requested in order to consider whether any disciplinary steps in terms of the provisions of section 9 of the SA Police Service Act, 1995 should be instituted against Lieutenant General Shivuri.
6. Once the statements filed in the said case docket haVe been perused, an informed decision will be taken as to whether to institute a board of Inquiry as provided for in section 9 of the SA Police Service Act, 1995.

Clarke, Ms M to ask the Minister of Police
Why does the Elsburg Police Station Victim Empowerment Centre not have a waiting room with a counsellor present as well as a room with a bed or cot in an environment that makes the victim feel safe, as the relevant rooms and office are utilised by office staff and not victim empowerment personnel? NW2181E
Reply:
One of the offices of the Elsburg Police Station Victim Empowerment Centre was temporarily used as a communication office. However, the office was recently vacated and the centre is now fully established, with a waiting room and a room furnished with a cot and bed. In addition, there is a bathroom fitted with a shower, basin and toilet.
Trained Community Policing Forum (CPF) counsellors are available, on standby, to assist victims.

Phillips, Ms C to ask the Minister of Police
How long do the DNA tests from rape kits take before the results are made available to the investigating officer?
Reply:
For a routine case, with one suspect reference sample and one Sexual Assault Evidence Collection Kit from the victim, it will take 35 calendar days to complete.
For a non-routine case, with multiple suspect reference samples, one Sexual Assault Evidence Collection Kit and additional exhibits (clothing/bedding) from the victim, it will take 113 calendar days to complete.
On average and with the required resources consistently available, the South African Police Service (SAPS) Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) requires 74 calendar days, taking the above scenarios into consideration.

Seitlholo, Mr IS to ask the Minister of Police
1) Whether, with reference to Kokomeng Police Station, Greater Taung Local Municipality, North West, which burned down in April 2018, his department intends to refurbish or rebuild the police station, if not why not, (2) whether his department considers having a satellite police station in the interim, if not, why not; (3) what total number of (a) vehicles are there (i) at each station in the municipality and (ii) undergoing maintenance and (b) police officers are at each station and what are their ranks?
Reply:
(1) Kokomeng was never a fully-fledged Police Station, but a Satellite of the Taung Police Station. The Kokomeng Satellite Police Station was intentionally damaged by the community during a service delivery protest and Taung, CAS 111/04/2018, refers. The damage was reported to the Department of Public Works (DPW). The Intention is to reactivate the Satellite, as soon as the DPW has repaired the building.
(2) Currently, there are two vehicles that were allocated to Kokomeng Satellite Police Station, patrolling in the service area of the Kokomeng Satellite Police Station, to deal with and attend to complaints from the community. Due to the absence of a replacement building, the Kokomeng Satellite Police Station will only be reopened when the damaged building is repaired by the DPW.

Boshoff, Dr WJ to ask the Minister of Higher Education, Science and Technology
(1) Whether it is Government’s policy to permit one university campus to be predominantly Afrikaans speaking; if not, why not; (2) Whether he will make a statement on the matter?
Reply:
- All South African universities are currently public higher education instiutions. Public higher education institutions must be accessible to a wide range of diverse students. Within the South African context universities have developed language policies, in line with the Policy on Languages in Higher Education, and have moved away from Afrikaans only language institutions/ campuses toward utilising English as the main language of instruction, and at the same time fostering multilingual environments that include a range of other languages, in terms of, for example, campus signage, social usage and formal usage at university arranged events. This move has been tested in the consitutional court and has been found to be in line with the Constitution. Government supports these language policy movements, however it does not set the policy at the institutional level. An institution may implement a language policy that allows for dual mediums of instruction in terms of the policy. However, they may not implement policy that results in language being a barrier to access and success for students.
Private higher education institutions must also uphold the constitution and implement language policies that do not act as barriers to access and success.
2. No, the Minister will not be making a statement on this matter.

- With regards to municipalities, the National Treasury in conjunction with the Department of Cooperative Governance (DCoG) developed the Municipal Public Accounts (MPAC) Guideline and Toolkit to assist MPACs to perform their oversight and other related responsibilities, which include reviewing and recommending to Council actions or otherwise relating to the expediting and conclusion of unauthorised, irregular, fruitless and wasteful expenditure (UIF&W) processes. This guideline and toolkit was supported by Municipal Finance Management Act (MFMA) Circular 92 which further supports the effective functioning and decision-making of councillors serving on MPACs.
The National and provincial treasuries provided training to councillors serving on the MPAC in consultation with DCoG and South African Local Government Association (SALGA). As at the end of March 2019, the MPAC Guideline and Toolkit have been rolled out and a total of 875 MPAC Councillors and 205 municipal officials have been trained countrywide. Further training was provided to Municipal Disciplinary Board members to enable consequence management processes to be expedited in line with Chapter 15 of the MFMA read together with the Municipal Regulations on Financial Misconduct Procedures and Criminal Proceedings. These are being monitored by national and provincial treasuries for actions and resolutions taken. It should be noted that progress in this area has been slow, as it depends on finalisation of the investigation process.
One of the biggest causes of irregular expenditure relates to non-compliance with Supply Chain Management (SCM) processes and procedures, particularly the awarding of awards to persons in the service of the state which is prohibited in terms of the Municipal Supply Chain Management Regulations. The National Treasury issued MFMA Circular 81, which introduced the Central Suppliers Database that requires all suppliers to be registered on the database. The database interfaces with South African Revenue Services, the Companies and Intellectual Property Commission and government’s payroll system and assists municipalities with some of the necessary verification. The system verifies supplier’s tax and BEE status, and enable public sector officials doing business with the state to be identified. Thus, if used correctly it will assist in reducing incidences where municipalities award contracts to persons in the service of the state, in non-compliance with the SCM Regulations.
Municipalities have also been incorrectly applying SCM Regulation 32, which enables municipalities to procure goods and services under a contract secured by another organ of state, which has also contributed to the irregular expenditure. In July 2019, the National Treasury issued MFMA Circular 96 which provides further elaboration to municipalities on the principles captured in Regulation 32 of the SCM Regulations when procuring goods or services from contracts secured by other organs of state. The correct application will assist in the number of incidences of non-compliance and further reduce the irregular expenditure.
During 2018/19 support was prioritised to the 10 municipalities with the highest UIF&W, making up over R24 billion. The National and provincial treasuries have engaged these municipalities to assist with the processes to address the UIF&W, to identify the root causes and to put measures in place to address the recurrence of the incidences that resulted in the UIF&W.
It should be emphasised that it is the responsibility of municipalities to hold officials and councillors to account for any compliance with the MFMA in keeping with the underlying principles in the legal framework. It is also the responsibility of the municipalities to put measures in place to avoid any non-compliance with the MFMA.
Further detailed actions taken should be addressed to the respective municipal executive and administration.

The graphs below shows a comparative analysis of unqualified audits with no findings of all national and provincial PFMA compliant institutions over a period of five (5) financial years from 2013/2014 to 2017/2018. Information on unqualified audits with no findings for the previous five (5) years from 2013/2014 can be obtained from the Auditor-General for a response.
Decrease in a percentage of unqualified audits with no findings is attributable to areas of non-compliance findings mainly on, material misstatements, unauthorised, irregular, fruitless and wasteful expenditure, expenditure management, procurement management and consequence management.
(2)(a) This information can obtained from the Auditor-General for a response.
(b) The graphs below shows a comparative analysis related to amount of unuathorised, irregular and fruitless and wasteful and expenditure incurred by PFMA compliant institutions at national level from 2013/2014 to 2017/2018. Information related to unuathorised, irregular and fruitless and wasteful and expenditure incurred by PFMA compliant institutions at provincial level can be obtained from the Auditor-General for a response.

(3) Section 38(1)(h)(iii) and section 51(1)(e) of the PFMA require accounting officers for departments, trading entities and constitutional institutions and accounting authorities of public entities to take effective and appropriate disciplinary steps against any official who makes or permits fruitless and wasteful expenditure. In terms of section 81(1)(b) and section 83(1)(b) of the PFMA, accounting officers for departments or constitutional institutions and accounting authorities of public entities commit an act of financial misconduct if that accounting officer or accounting authority wilfully or negligently makes or permits a fruitless and wasteful expenditure. Therefore it is the responsibility of accounting officers or accounting authorities to address consequence management and ensure maintenance of proper governance systems in their respective institutions.
In May 2014 and 2015, National Treasury issued the first guidelines on Irregular, Fruitless and Wasteful and Unauthorised Expenditure which were aimed at providing accounting officers and accounting authorities with clarity on treatment of those expenditures.
New Frameworks dealing with irregular, fruitless and wasteful expenditure were further introduced by National Treasury 2019 as Treasury Instructions to give legal effect to the process that must be followed by accounting officers and accounting authorities. These frameworks are aimed at enhancing the understanding, interpretation an application of legislative provisions dealing with these expenditures. Thus far 64 PFMA compliant institutions have been trained on these frameworks. Accounting officers and accounting authorities of national institutions are also required to report to National Treasury and accounting officers and accounting authorities of provincial institutions are required to their respective provincial treasuries on any irregular, unauthorized and fruitless and wasteful expenditure incurred, regular assessments, and determination of losses, criminal conduct and investigations of persons responsible for incurring such expenditures. This report also requires information on the process followed by accounting officers and accounting authorities in dealing with the recovery of any losses incurred, referral of criminal cases and approval process of expenditure free losses or criminal conduct.
