The details of international trips undertaken by my two Deputy Ministers and I are attached as Annexure A.

However, the information requested is currently being audited and as such the total cost of air travel, accommodation and other costs will be provided once the audit process is completed. The Honourable Member would appreciate that being an International Relations and Cooperation Department, international travel is a part of its core mandate and the verification process takes time. This is further compounded by the fact that all accommodation and land transport are arranged by various embassies across the world.

Airports Company South Africa SOC Limited (ACSA)

1. The inspections were carried out by Mr. Nathaniel Seseletsi, who is employed by Airports Company South Africa in the capacity of Chief Civil Engineer. Mr. Seseletsi’s background is structural engineering and is a Certified Bridge Inspector by the South African National Roads Agency Limited (SANRAL).

2. The considered findings, which are contained under Section 2 of the enclosed report, confirm that there is no danger to human life. The report further confirms that, whilst cracks are structural in nature (i.e. they result from structural behaviour of the Bridge), they will not result in the collapse of the bridge.

3. The recommendations of the Chief Civil Engineer have been implemented, however the final inspection has not been conducted as the piers still need to re-painted. All works on the Piers will be concluded by Friday 01 March 2019.

4. The ACSA internal memo with the findings, conclusions and recommendations (Titled Pier 23 at ORTIA elevated road and dated 30 January 2019) has been enclosed with the responses.

(1) The AARTO Pilot Report, identified the weaknesses in the implementation and the related interventions that should developed. With the identified loopholes corrected, the implementation has subsequently proven to be successful. The last of the remaining weaknesses relate to the legislative framework and the amendments to the AARTO Act have recently been approved by the Portfolio Committee as well as the National Council of Provinces;

(2) Yes, (a) there was 19% reduction in fatalities in Gauteng, where AARTO is operational, recorded for the 2018 December/2019 January festive season. Enforcement Orders issued acted as a catalyst to ensure that lleged infringers comply with the infringement notices issued and in retun allowed for a compliant road user and a safer road traffic environment.

(b) Intenternational Research indicates that the Points Demerit System substantially reduce the accident rates upon implimentation thereof. It is envisaged that the same will apply with the national implimentation of AARTO, which will include the enforcement of the demerit points system.

(3) Audited performance reports over the last three years shows that the Agency has easily cope with the volumes of representation applications received within an average of 5 days, which is significantly less than the prescribed 21 day period. The Agency adjudicated 87,848 representations during the 2015/16, 96,310 during the 2016/17and 133,790 during the 2017/18 periods respectively.

Furthermore, only a small percentage of infringement notices results in representation applications, since there are currently four other elective options that an infringer can choose from.

(4) In the first instance, the AARTO system is not just based on the collection of traffic penalties. AARTO seeks to decriminalise road traffic violation. It provides for five different options from which an infringer must elect and exercise their right, such as challenging it by submitting a representation, electing to go to court, nominating the driver, making a once-off payment or arranging to pay in installments. Generally, revenue increase has been experienced, given the easier process of payments at additional payment platforms throughout the country, thereby introducing greater convenience for infringers to effect payments where applicable. throughout the country. It would be incorrect to move from a point that AARTO is only about collection of fines.

(5) The implementation of AARTO nationwde will include the Points Demerit System (PDS) and international studies have shown that the PDS has a direct bearing on the reduction of road fatalities. The evidence in this regard is based on the following:

• Norway - reduction of 10.49% of road crashes when demerit points was introduced during 2009/2010;

• Denmark - reduction of 16.2% of road crashes when demerit points was introduced during 2009/2010

• Germany - reduction of 7.24% of road crashes when demerit points was introduced during 2009/2010;

• A study by Stichting Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek Verkeersveiligheid (SWOV) Institute, Leidshendam, Nederlands dated 2012 on Demerit Point Systems founded that the general effect on the reduction of injury accidents after the introduction of a PDS will be between 15-20% for the first one and a half year after introduction.

The Minister, the Department and all its roads Agencies, firmly believe that road safety is everyone’s responsibility. Thus the strategic position is to show leadership by engaging with all stakeholders and members of the public to ensure full compliance to all road traffic laws, which will ensure the achievement of the goal of increased road safety. We all accept that any road fatality or serious injury is one too many to accept and thus everyone must ensure that we contribute to the success of a safer road traffic environment.

This response is according to information received from the SOC:

(1)(a) The companies in the Department of Public Enterprises portfolio have requested the following financial assistance for consideration during the 2018 Adjustments Budget and 2019 Budgeting process:

	Alexkor	Denel	Eskom	Safcol	SAX	SAA	Transnet
Requested financial assistance	R100 million	R2.8 billion	R100 billion	R0	R1.74 billion	R15.5 billion	R0

The SOCs, with the support of government, are in the process of negotiating the rollover and refinancing of existing debt as well as seeking to secure additional funding to meet the companies’ liquidity requirements. The exact amount, or even whether assistance will be forthcoming from government will be determined by the National Treasury, after consultation with the department of Public Enterprises, and subject to approval of cabinet.

(b) The National Assembly and the National Council of Provinces (NCOP) recently approved the Adjustments Appropriation Bill and the Special Appropriation Bill, which included amongst others an appropriation of R1.249 billion for South African Express SOC Limited (SA Express) and R5 billion appropriation for South African Airways SOC Limited (SAA) respectively.

As the 2019/20 budgeting process has still to be concluded, there is no clear indication of further funding to be provided to the SOCs.

(c) In line with conditions set by the Minister of Finance, these amounts allocated to SAA and SA Express will be used exclusively to settle the airlines’ guaranteed debt.

 (2)   Based on the information received from Transnet, the settlement discussions between the legal representatives of the pensioners and Transnet are continuing and it is hoped that these will be concluded early in 2019. At this stage, due to the confidential nature of the discussions, it would not be in the best interests of any of the parties to disclose the details, until a decision is taken on the proposed offers and counter offers.             

(3)    No further statement is required at this point

With reference to the RAF and the proposed RABS, the (a) difference in the respective revenue models will be that currently section 5 of the Road Accident Fund Act, No. 56 of 1996 (the RAF Act) provides that the RAF is funded through the dedicated RAF Fuel Levy, and through loans, to make payment of claims on a “pay-as-you-go” basis, with no provision in the RAF Act for any balancing of revenue with expenses, whilst the provisions of Chapter 4 of the Road Accident Benefit Scheme Bill [B 17B -2017] (RABS Bill) provides for an additional funding stream in the form of appropriations by Parliament, in addition to the dedicated RABS Fuel Levy (which is the current RAF Fuel Levy that will in future fund RABS), and loans, in order to make payment of claims that arise under the RABS Bill on a fully funded basis and RAF claims that arose under the RAF Act on a “pay-as-you-go” basis, with specific provision in section 32 of the RABS Bill for the matching of revenue and expenses based on a funding ratio,

(b) this model will (i) assist, together with the overall benefit design set out in the RABS Bill (i.e. no-fault liability, removal of general damages , defined and limited benefits, structured payment, benefit review, and no automatic increases), to make the RABS solvent over time, noting that actuarial projections indicate that the benefits under the RABS Bill are more than 20% cheaper as compared to compensation paid under the RAF Act and

(ii) be more beneficial to claimants by: providing more inclusive access to cover, through the removal of fault; enabling much faster assessment of claims, and provision of access to benefits, due to the removal of fault and because of the defined benefit design; providing for a deemed income, on which benefits are calculated for those who earn below the deemed income and those who cannot prove an actual income; providing assistance, including financial assistance, to claimants to claim; providing for faster and cheaper resolution of disagreements through an internal dispute process, or externally, through an Appeals Committee; and, reducing the diversion of funds meant for beneficiaries to intermediaries

According to the information received from Eskom

(1)(a)(i)(aa)(bb)(ii)

Annexure A provides group headcount per financial year including fixed-term contractors, the number and percentage of employees per occupational category by race and gender as well as the aggregated percentage of Africans, Coloureds and Indians.

Eskom Company workforce profile is for FY2005/6 to 2017/18 and subsidiary, Eskom Rotek Industries (ERI) is from FY2013/14 to 2017/18. 

Eskom is not in a position to provide data prior to the date mentioned (from 1 January 1994) due to the following reasons:

(i) Eskom submitted the first compliance Employment Equity report for FY2005/6 to the Department of Labour (DoL);

(ii) SAP was only configured in line with the DoL reporting requirements in 2006;

(iii) Eskom Rotek Industries only started using SAP in 2013.

Further, it is to be noted the variances in headcount reported in Eskom Integrated Reports vs headcount reported in Annexure A is due to definition of temporary employees in line with Section 57 of the Employment Act, Act 55 of 1998. 

According to Section 57 of the Act an employee whose services has been procured for a temporary employment service, is deemed to be the employee of the client when the employee’s employment is for three months or longer. 

To that effect Eskom started to align with the guidelines provided by Section 57 of the Employment Equity Act, Act 55 of 1998 in the FY2009/10.

(2)(a)

Eskom does not use the term ‘key strategic positions’ but instead uses the term core, critical and scarce skills.

Annexure B depicts core, critical, and scarce skills for the period 2014/2015 to 2018/2019 since these were tagged from 2014 onwards on the SAP system.  The numbers provided exclude Eskom Rotek Industries.

(2)(b) 

Annexure B depicts core, critical and scarce skills by race groups for the period 2014/2015 to 2018/2019, since these were tagged from 2014 onwards on the SAP system.  The numbers provided exclude Eskom Rotek Industries.

(2)(c)

As with all recruitment at Eskom, the appointment of individuals in possession of these skills is informed by Eskom’s Employment Equity plan, in compliance to Section 19 and 20 of the Act.

(3)

Yes, Eskom workforce profile has transformed substantially.  Between financial years 2005/6 and 2017/8 there is a 22% change on racial equity and 14% gender equity change, across senior management and professionals.  The table below provides details.

 

Measure (Unit)	FY 2005/6	FY 2017/8	Change
Racial equity in senior management (% black employees)	47%	69%	22%
Racial equity in professionals and middle management (% black employees)	54%	76%	22%
Gender equity in senior management (% female employees)	24%	38%	14%
Gender equity in professionals and middle management (%  female employees)	25%	38%	13%

 

Eskom views transformation as a strategic imperative and within this context, strives to ensure that its workforce demographics reflects the Economically Active Population (EAP) profile of South Africa. 

(3)(a)

At no stage did Eskom compromise its mandate to focus on the transformation agenda. 

Eskom is cognisant of its mandate which is to provide electricity in an efficient and sustainable manner through its generation, transmission, distribution and retail value chain.  Eskom is also mindful of its developmental role namely to promote transformation and economic development. 

Eskom remains a critical and strategic contributor to government’s goal of ensuring security of electricity supply to the country, thereby enabling economic growth and prosperity.  Eskom will always strive to ensure a balance between its core business versus the transformation imperatives of the country.

(3)(b)

Eskom continually seeks to deliver transformation through recruitment and retention using targeted employee value proposition.  Essential to this is attracting and retaining critical skills. 

Eskom uses internal talent boards at managerial and leadership levels to aid with succession planning for critical workforce segments and actively manage talent pools and careers to achieve transformation objectives.

However, there is no doubt that during the “State Capture” period, skilled professionals with integrity – both black and white, were sidelined, victimised or left Eskom. A climate of fear and intimidation was created to ensure that corrupt practices were not challenged or exposed.

This is the damage that is now being remedied. Even these efforts are being subjected to a “fightback” by a coalition of ex-employees and their fellow travelers in various organisations.

In the interest of future generations, South Africans from all walks of life must support the endeavours of the Eskom board and management to restore Eskom, in accordance with the proposed restructuring and new business model, to sustainability.

Reply:

In as far as legal steps are concerned, no investigation was required.

The Department is guided by empowering legislation, and in this case the Petroleum Products Act, 1977 (Act No. 120 of 1977) (as amended) is the appropriate piece of legislation.

Section 2(1)(c) of the Petroleum Products Act, 1977 provides that “The Minister may by regulation or by notice in writing served on any person, whether personally or by post, and any person authorized thereto by the Minister may by such notice so served, prescribe the price, or a maximum or minimum price, or a maximum and minimum price, at which any petroleum product may be sold or bought by any person, and conditions under which the selling or buying of petroleum products other than in accordance with the prescribed, maximum or minimum price may take place”.

This section is the empowering provision that would permit the Minister to set a price ceiling for unleaded fuel after a thorough analysis of the socio-economic impact of doing so has been undertaken.

(1)(a) The name of the police officer is Constable DM Mapatlare.

I have been furnished with the following data related to imports and exports of flat steel and long steel products:

Exports from South Africa between 2009 and 2018:

Table 1: Steel Export statistics (Tons)

Imports to South Africa between 2009 and 2018:

Table 2: Steel Import statistics (Tons)

ITAC advises that South Africa’s imports of steel originate mainly from the China, the UK, Japan and Germany. South Africa exports steel mainly to Zambia, Zimbabwe, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Mozambique.

Export destinations and import sources change from time to time however, and a more detailed study would need to conducted to see the changes in the composition of import/export trading partners.

A number of government initiatives are geared to increasing the level of steel beneficiation in South Africa. These include the expansion of localization in the processing of local scrap metal, support for steel-industry initiatives and the localization requirements for the use of steel in public infrastructure projects.

(1) South Africa fully subscribes to the principles of international law embodied in the Charter of the United Nations, that is, equal rights and self-determination of peoples, sovereign equality and independence of all States, non-interference in the domestic affairs of States, prohibition of the threat or use of force and universal respect for, and observance of human rights and fundamental freedoms for all.

South Africa remains concerned at the attempt by outsiders to evade Venezuela’s constitutional legal mechanisms and electoral processes. South Africa believes that any political grievances or disputes inside Venezuela should be resolved in a peaceful manner through the proper mechanisms and processes provided for in the constitution of Venezuela and its electoral laws, without external influence. This is regarded by South Africa as a standard and indeed best practice in all democracies that subscribe to the Rule of Law. South Africa also calls on all parties in Venezuela to participate in a national dialogue process to ensure unity and reconciliation, and in furtherance of a political solution to the situation.

South Africa is firmly against any attempts at undue or unconstitutional change of government in Venezuela. The UN Security Council (UNSC) should never be an instrument that validates unconstitutional changes of any Government. Instead, the UNSC should promote avenues that create an environment conducive to dialogue and cooperation that would ease the challenges and hardships faced by the people of Venezuela.

(2) South Africa echoes the statements made by the UN Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres in Davos on 24 January 2019, where he urged for a de-escalation of tensions to prevent violence. South Africa further supports the Secretary-General’s call for the “urgent need for all relevant actors to commit to inclusive and credible political dialogue to address the protracted crisis in the country, with full respect for the rule of law and human rights”. South Africa is also concerned about the humanitarian situation in Venezuela and the resultant migration that has taken place and the influx of Venezuelan asylum seekers to neighbouring countries. South Africa calls on the international community, as well as the relevant UN bodies to work with the Venezuelan government and its neighbours to assist those in need.

South Africa fully subscribes to the Viena Convention’s commitments on the promotion and protection of human rights as adopted by the World Conference on Human Rights in Vienna on 25 June 1993 and all international laws governing humanitarian action which needs to be independent of political, military or other objectives

As the member is aware, the legal matter referred to involved a number of legal teams representing different parties. It is through the lawyers that represented me as the then Minister of Social Development that the process will be finalised. I regularly communicate with the legal team that represents me. This far there is no correspondence on the legal fees that has been received from the other legal teams that represented the different parties.
