Mbhele, Mr ZN to ask the Minister of Police

With reference to his repeated statements that he stands by the findings of his report on Nkandla on the basis that the technical findings were made by security experts, why did he not advise the President, Mr Jacob G Zuma, to subject the Public Protector’s Secure in Comfort report to judicial review for alleged flawed findings; (2) whether each of the specified security experts were employees of the SA Police Service; if not, (a) at which organisation(s) was each of the experts employed and (b) what are the further relevant details in this regard; if so, (i) what are the (aa) names and (bb) ranks of each of the experts and (ii) in which (aa) divisions and/or (bb) components did each of the experts work?

Reply:

  1. The mandate of the Minister of Police with regards to Nkandla upgrades was in terms of the ad hoc committee report adopted by a resolution of the National Assembly in November 2014. According to this resolution, the Minister of Police was to consider, in the light of the Public Protector’s findings, what constitutes security and non-security feature to determine the personal liability of the President if any. It was not part of the brief of the Minister of Police to advise the President, Mr J G Zuma on the legal steps that needed to be taken.
  2. In compiling the report, information, analysis and contextualisation were solicited from, among other experts, security experts within the South African Police Service and State Security Agent. The Minister is of the view that names, ranks and divisions of the said experts are not relevant as they were representing the organisations that they work for and not acting in their personal capacities.

Whether any measures are being implemented to ensure that the turnaround time for police vehicle repairs at SA Police Service garages in Gauteng is kept to a reasonable minimum so that the lack of operational vehicles does not hinder crime prevention and service delivery in the specified province; if not, why not; if so, what are the full relevant details?

Reply:

Performance benchmarks were implemented at all South African Police Service (SAPS) Garages to ensure appropriate turnaround times for SAPS vehicle repairs, thereby ensuring that adequate vehicles are available for operational deployment at all police stations/units. The following criteria are included in the performance benchmarks and are followed up on a continuous basis to address any deviations:

● The opening and closure of job cards (performance) per garage within specific time frames for the various types of services and repairs;

● The production of individual artisans and garages as well as production for all garages within the province as per the set standard; and

● The availability of vehicles per police station/unit, per province and nationally as per the set standard.

(a)(b)(c)(d)(e)(f)(g)(h) The workforce analysis for the Putfontein Police Station is depicted below see the link:

http://pmg-assets.s3-website-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/RNW2550Table.pdf

The following posts were identified as critical vacancies:

1 x Sub Section Commander: Human Resource Management (Salary level 8).

1 x Principal Personnel Officer (Salary level 7).

The proposed promotion posts were requested from the South African Police Service (SAPS) Head Office as critical funded posts in terms of the allocated posts to the province.

During the 2016/2017 financial year, the Gauteng Province received an allocation of

1 320 entry-level Police Act employees. This allocation was scientifically distributed and approved by the Provincial Commissioner, to all 142 stations within Gauteng, by utilising the following criteria:

  • A gap analysis was conducted, taking into consideration all Visible Policing and Detective Service members on salary levels 1-7, comparing the actual allocation with the Fixed Establishment.
  • The allocation of 1 320 entry level Police Act employees was distributed equally amongst all stations taking into consideration the shortages on levels 1-7 for Visible Policing and Detective members.
  • After the distribution, all stations with shortages were staffed equally at 78,15% on levels 1-7 (Visible Policing and Detectives).

The Gauteng Province receives an entry-level allocation every financial year, but unfortunately this allocation does not meet the human resource demands of the various business units in the province. Cluster Commanders are therefore advised to ensure the equal distribution of Human Resources within the cluster, taking into consideration the fixed establishment.

The Gauteng Province is currently busy with a project in terms of which police stations with a surplus of members within the Visible Policing environment have been instructed to identify and redeploy members to their Detective Service environment, where there is a general shortage of personnel. Furthermore, Police Stations are also instructed to redeploy experienced Visible Policing members to the Detective Service environment when they receive their new entry-level allocation.

The Putfontein Police Station is a leased facility. The owners have been engaged regarding the poor conditions of the Police Station as, in accordance with the lease agreement, it is their responsibility to ensure that the facility is properly maintained.

The need for an alternative Police Station was included in the Provincial User Asset Management Plan (UAMP) for the 2017/2018 financial year. The Divisional Commissioner: Supply Chain Management has been requested to source a proper alternative facility.

(i) Per the SAPS Asset Register, the Putfontein Police Station had a total of 16 vehicles on 6 November 2016. The distribution of vehicles is as follows:

Reply:

1. Provincial heads of the Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation (DPCI) were appointed for the first time by the Minister of Police in accordance with section 17CA(6) of the South African Police Services Act 68 of 1995 (“SAPS Act”) in 2016. There are no former provincial heads that were appointed in terms of section 17CA(6) before the appointments were made in 2016.

2. The Minister of Finance, Mr P J Gordhan is a member of the Cabinet. It follows that the appointments and remuneration of the provincial heads of the DPCI were presented before the Cabinet for concurrence. Cabinet Memorandum, which included the remuneration scale of the provincial heads was distributed to all Cabinet Ministers and no objection was received from the Minister of Finance on the remuneration scales. The Cabinet (with the Minister of Finance included) concurred with the appointments and the remuneration scales of the provincial heads.

It must be noted that the South African Police Services Act 68 of 1995 (SAPS Act), as amended, does not prescribe how concurrence should be obtained and there is no provision in the Act that requires concurrence of the Minister of Finance to be writing in each case.

Reply:

(1)(a)(i) The investigation into Pretoria Central CAS 1277/09/2016 has been concluded and the case docket was handed in at the office of the Senior Public Prosecutor at the Pretoria Magistrate’s Court for decision on 14 November 2016. The decision on prosecution is awaited.

(1)(b) The charge in both cases is Assault Common.

(2) No suspects were arrested on any of the two cases as the Criminal Procedure Act, 1997 (Act No. 51 of 1997), does not make provision for a member of the South African Police Service to arrest a suspect on a charge of Assault Common unless the crime was committed in his/her presence.

(3)(a)(i & ii) The suspect in Pretoria Central CAS 1277/09/2016 was interviewed on 20 October 2016 and his warning statement obtained.

The suspect in Pretoria Central CAS 1344/09/2016 has not yet been interviewed. As soon as all the witness statements have been obtained, the suspect will be interviewed and the warning statement obtained. The case docket will then be forwarded to the Senior Public Prosecutor for a decision.

(3)(b)(i & ii) Three witnesses were interviewed in Pretoria Central CAS 1277/09/2016.

Eight witnesses were interviewed in Pretoria Central CAS 1344/09/2016 and all indicated that they will submit statements through their Attorneys.

(4) The investigation into Pretoria Central CAS 1277/09/2016 has been concluded.

It is envisaged that the investigation in the case docket Pretoria Central CAS 1344/09/20146 will be concluded within the next two weeks.

Waters, Mr M to ask the Minister of Police

Whether CAS 482/06/2016 opened at the Woodstock Police Station in Cape Town has been handed over to the Malawian authorities yet; if not, on what date will it be handed over to the specified authorities; if so, on what date was the specified docket handed over to the authorities?

Reply:

The case docket, Woodstock CAS 482/06/2016 (Theft), has not been handed over to the Malawian authorities for investigation. The alleged crime was committed between 8 June 2016 and 19 June 2016 at 29 Low Street, Observatory, Cape Town and not in Malawi. There is therefore no need for the case docket to be sent to Malawi for investigation. On 28 July 2016, the Senior Public Prosecutor at the Cape Town Magistrate’s Court declined to prosecute in this matter as there was no evidence linking the possible suspect to the perpetration of the crime.

Mbhele, Mr ZN to ask the Minister of Police

(1)Whether he obtained the concurrence of the Minister of Finance, Mr P J Gordhan, on the remuneration of Lt. Gen. B M Ntlemeza before he was appointed as the National Head of the Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation in accordance with section 17CA(8)(a) of the South African Police Services Act, Act 68 of 1995, as amended; if not, why not; if so, on what date did he obtain the concurrence of the Minister of Finance in writing; (2) whether he placed a notice of the remuneration scale payable to the specified person in the Government Gazette before the person was appointed to the specified position, in accordance with section 17CA(8)(a) of the specified Act; if not, why not; if so, (a) on what date was this gazetted and (b) what is the Government Gazette number; (3) whether he submitted the remuneration scale payable to the person to Parliament for approval, in accordance with section 17CA(9) of the Act; if not, why not; if so, (a) on what date and (b) in what form was the specified submission made to Parliament?

Reply:

1. At the time of the appointment of Gen B M Ntlemeza the current Minister of Finance, Mr P J Gordhan was not the Minister of Finance. The Then Minister of Finance, Mr N Nene was a member of the Cabinet and the appointment of Gen Ntlemeza was presented before Cabinet for concurrence. Cabinet Memorandum, which included the proposed remuneration scale of Gen Ntlemeza was distributed to all Cabinet Ministers including the Minister of Finance and no objection was received from the Ministers. Cabinet (with the Minister of Finance included) concurred with the appointment of Gen Ntlemeza on 09 September 2015 and that was before he was appointed on 10 September 2015.

It must be noted that the South African Police Services Act 68 of 1995 (SAPS Act), as amended, does not prescribe how concurrence should be obtained and there is no provision in the Act that requires concurrence by the Minister of Finance to be writing.

2. The Minister submitted the remuneration scale which has already been approved by the Department of Public Service to Parliament for approval. This is part of the process of publishing the said remuneration scale in the Government Gazette. Whilst it is acknowledged that the SAPS Act requires the Minister to place a notice of the remuneration scale payable to the Head of DPCI in the Government Gazette, it must be pointed out that the Act does not prescribe the time frames at which such notice must be placed in the Gazette.

3. (a) The Minister submitted the remuneration scale payable to Gen Ntlemeza to Parliament on 31 October 2016.

     (b) The remuneration scale was submitted through the Speaker of the National Assemble in writing.

(a) How many fixed establishment positions were there for the (i) Detectives: Violent Crimes (Group A), (ii) Detectives: Economic Crimes (Group B), (iii) Detectives: General Crimes (Group C) and (iv) Detectives: Service Centre in each police station in each province (aa) in the 2015-16 financial year and (bb) since 1 April 2016, (b) how many of the specified positions were (i) filled and (ii) vacant in each case and (c) on which salary scale is each of the positions?

Reply:

(1)(a) The question requires a reply to address all the 1 142 police stations. This will be volumes of pages and is therefore responded by providing the provincial totals. The tables below provide a summarised exposé of the different questions and must be read with the previous reply to question 2163 which dealt with the total fixed establishment of police stations. The development and maintenance of the fixed establishment of the South African Police Service (SAPS) is informed and guided by Regulation 20 and 27 of the SAPS Employment Regulations, 2008 and is influenced by two primary variables:

- The approved organisational and post structures for police stations and clusters; and,

- the availability of funds in terms of the current budget and Medium Term Expenditure Framework.

The source that was used is the SAPS Fixed Establishment allocations for 2015/2016. The fixed establishment positions for police stations in each province in the 2015/2016 financial year and a summary of categories crimes investigated by the respective groups (attached as per annexure A) are tabulated as follows:

Reply:

1. The Minister of Police hereby confirms that a performance agreement was signed with the suspended National Commissioner of the South African Police Service (SAPS), General Phiyega (Head of Department)(HOD) for the 2014/2015 and 2015/2016 financial years. Due to the suspension of this HOD, a performance agreement for the 2016/2017 financial year was concluded with the Acting National Commissioner of SAPS, Lieutenant General Phahlane.

Due to the suspension of General Phiyega during October 2015, the assessment process could not be completed for the 2014/2015 financial year. As the suspension is still in place, no assessment for the 2015/2016 financial year will be initiated until the reasons for the suspension have been resolved.

2. As no formal assessment of the suspended HOD was possible, it can be confirmed that the HOD of SAPS has not received any form of performance bonus for either the 2014/2015 or 2015/2016 financial years.

3. The response to Question 2064 only relates to information at the disposal of the South African Police Service. Information relating to the Independent Police Investigative Directorate and the Civilian Secretariat for Police will have to be obtained from those departments.
