I have been informed by SAPO as follows:

Kidd’s Beach

Kidd’s Beach was an Agency which closed down because the owner no longer wished to provide postal services. The post boxes have remained in the same location and continue being serviced.

A new shopping centre is in the process of being built. SAPO has approached one of the tenants and negotiations are currently underway to establish an Agency.

Seavale

There are no postal outlets at Seavale. Some of the residents of Seavale have their post boxes at Kidd’s Beach. Mail for street delivery are left in a box for some of the residents at a shop.

Currently, ownership of the shop is changing and SAPO will make arrangements with the new owner in the interim. SAPO intends to introduce street delivery in Seavale.

I have been informed by SAPO as follows:

The Mondeor Post Office originally operated from a company-owned building along Columbine drive. It was, however, vacated approximately 15 years ago and relocated to a shopping centre.

During the tenancy at the shopping centre, the available space was reduced and the lease eventually terminated by the landlord. The company-owned building currently requires renovation for the Mondeor Post Office to be re-established, however due to budgetary constraints, this has not yet taken place. The Mondeor Post Office operations have been moved to the Southdale Post Office, approximately 5km from the Mondeor Post Office.

She has 11 years experience of the education of Deaf learners as well as 8 years experience in managing curriculum adaptations in schools for the Deaf.

(b) The project manager has the following qualifications:

B.Ed. Hon: Support teaching; and
MEd: Psychology of Education – Alternative and adaptive methods of assessment for learners with barriers.

(3) The duration of the training of teachers is sufficient to prepare them for the implementation of CAPS for SASL.

The training conducted by DBE focused on the SASL CAPS as well as the basic skills that teachers and Deaf Teacher Assistants need to teach in the implementing Grades. The training conducted to the first group of Foundation Phase teachers was more elementary to align with the curriculum in that phase, while the training offered to the higher grades, increased in terms of depth and scope. The teaching and assessment of the four key skills were emphasised, namely, Observing and Signing, Visual Reading and Viewing (literature), Recording and Language Structure and Use.

Mackenzie, Mr C to ask the Minister of Telecommunications and Postal Services

What are the reasons why a small parcel, with tracking number 710-53598-1-1393114-15/1, which was posted via airmail in Bloemfontein on 27 January 2018, at a cost of R40 to Australia, only arrived on 21 September 2018?

I have been informed by SAPO as follows:

The number 710-53598-1-13933114-15/1 indicated as a tracking number is unfortunately not a valid tracking number which makes it difficult to determine where the item was delayed as items go through a number of processes between different postal operators, ground handling agents and airlines.

Reply:

Reports are requested in line with the Safety Management System (SMS) and this entails one (1) report per year. Reports are submitted per discipline, i.e. Perway, Level Crossings, Stations, Electrical, Signalling and Telecoms. The status of the submission is outlined as per the attached annexure.

See attached annexure

(aa) See attached annexure

(bb) For 2018/19, information was not available or PRASA Rail was awaiting Regional inputs. The Railway Safety Regulator has advised that reports would be submitted by 30 September 2018.

(i) & (ii) See attached annexure

(i) & (ii) See attached annexure

(i) & (ii) Reports were requested. However, due to PRASA’s internal challenges with a lack of continuity in various areas, reports were not submitted. Furthermore, it should be noted, for the same reason that PRASA is lagging in providing the RSR with the requested information, the RSR has now made the reports requirement of the safety permit which was recently issued to PRASA.

(b) 22 days due to truck driver’s strike (during March/April 2018) and since September 2018 due to contract termination. Where there is no water supply from municipality, the boiler is not able to be operated and therefore urns are used.

(c) Though the boiler is not working, patients are using warm water from the urns for bathing. The contract for the supply of coal in the province was terminated due to poor performance and an interim arrangement has been made for delivery, pending the finalization of the new tender.

Although the department goes on open tender for the services, but due to rural nature of the area there is only one competent service provider.

(c) There are no patients wearing dirty and torn clothing at the hospital. If linen is brought by service provider dirty, it is returned back and this usually happens when there was a break in water supply.

Whether the Manyeding Clinic in Manyeding, Northern Cape, was meant to be rebuilt with bricks in the past 10 years; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, on what date did construction commence?

Source

Reply:

The plan is to demolish the current Asbestos cement building which was built in the 80s and replace it with an Ideal Clinic. The clinic will meet the Ideal Clinic requirements. The new facility will be a primary health care facility providing HIV, AIDS and TB-related treatment. In the next financial year 2019/2020 the construction of the new clinic starts by the Northern Cape Department of Health.

During the course of the last 18 months maintenance works have been carried out to avoid distribution of the fiber while a 3-room “Dr Consulting Room” has been erected by the National Department of Health through the DBSA to improve the space availability for the patients and staff of the clinic. The Northern Cape Department of Health also installed back-up water tanks and pump for the clinic recently.

Sonti, Ms NP to ask the Minister of Health

(a) What were the (i) findings and (ii) recommendations in respect of the National Health Insurance pilot projects and (b) were the specified findings and recommendations taken into consideration in the current National Health Insurance Bill?

Source
Link

Reply:

(a) (i) The National Health Insurance (NHI) Pilot Projects were related to a number of interventions that were intended to improve the performance of the public healthcare system.

These interventions included the development of the ideal clinic model so that all public healthcare clinics comply to an agreed set of norms and standards. This approach has resulted in significant improvement in the quality of services rendered at clinics and we now have 1507 clinics that have reached ideal status.

The Health Patient Registration System HPRS system was developed to address the absence of a national health information system with an integrated data platform that would allow for the interoperability of various systems, using a unique identifier (ID). The HPRS system was developed and rolled out to 3023 Primary Health Care facilities and 3 Hospitals. By 25 October 2018, a total of 25 million people have been registered on the Patient Beneficiary Register.

District Clinical Specialist Teams were established in all pilot districts to support facilities in improving maternal and child healthcare services.

Municipal ward based Primary Heath Care Outreach Teams were established in all the NHI districts. A total of 3323 teams have been established and are functional

Integrated school health teams were established and learners have been screened for problems until vision, speech, hearing and oral health.

To improve the availability of medicines, the stock visibility system, Rx solution and CCMDD were implemented which significantly improved medicines availability and also improved access to medicines as over 2.1 million patients are registered to receive their medication close to their home.

General Practitioners were also contracted to deliver services in public healthcare facilities which reduced the need for patients to be referred to Community Health Centre’s (CHCs) or hospitals.

The public sector strengthening projects were successful and a number of these projects have been expanded beyond the NHI districts.

(b) The NHI Bill is intended to establish the NHI fund as outlined in the White Paper published by Cabinet in June 2017. The pilot projects are intended to strengthen the public healthcare system hence the results of the pilot projects do not find direct expression in the Bill. Remember the Bill is a translation of the policy framework into law.

Several assessments have been done on the National Department of Health (NDOH) and its work including:

The following organisations and Ministerial Task Teams have done assessments on the NDOH:

The Department of Public Service and Administration (DPSA);
The Auditor-General of South Africa (AGSA);
The Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Ministerial Task Teams;
Health Systems Trust (HST)

(i) An external assessment of the NDOH human resources structure and organogram was done by the DPSA. This assessment led to the approved current approved structure, and currently the NDOH is engaging the DPSA on the proposed NHI restructuring;

(ii) The AGSA annual assessments of performance information of human resources, finance, information technology and procurement systems management and adherence to required regulations and prescripts. The NDOH develops and implements and improvement action for each audit, such that it has obtained and unqualified financial audit from 2010 to 2017. For performance information several investments have been made to facilitate improvement in performance in the NDOH and the health sector. Key initiatives include implementation of the health patient registration system (HPRS);

(iii) Evaluations and assessments are often conducted for new initiatives introduced by the NDOH in the provinces, e.g the NHI pilot initiatives. With regards to the latter annual assessments have been done by independent organisations such as CHAI and CDC. Assessments are also done by expert committees established by the Minister, e.g the Ministerial Task Team I appointed in July 2015 to investigate the allegations of mismanagement, poor service delivery and unacceptable conditions in hospitals;

Annual reviews of various components of the health system are done annually and published in the South African Health Review (SAHR). This has been done since 1995, and contents are written by health policy systems research experts. The SAHR is an accredited journal which covers a range of topics including policy, legislation, health systems, diseases, finance human resources, leadership, governance and others. This publication is unique to the health sector in South Africa, and is accessible at the HST website:.

Mathys, Ms L to ask the Minister of Health

Whether he has been informed of faulty elevator lights, faulty air conditioning equipment and exposed wires at Themba Hospital in Mbombela, Mpumalanga; if so, what steps is his department taking to address these issues?

Source

Reply:

According to the Mpumalanga Provincial Department of Health, the bulbs in the lifts are often vandalised or removed for theft. As a temporary measure, the Department has installed the fluorescent bulbs to avoid theft as they are not prone to theft.

Air-conditioning equipment are out of order. However the maintenance contractor is on-site and is being assisted by the manufacturer of air-cons (Samsung) to install new parts.

ii) Number of programmes offered in the past three financial years.

In addition to SANRAL’s conventional and RRM projects (80 in number), 83 Community Development projects were initiated over the past three (2016/2017, 2017/2018) financial years and are in various project stages (2015/2016, 2016/2017, 2017/2018).

c) How:

are the small enterprises identified to whom such programmes are offered and?

a) Where many SMMEs are available, use is made of tests called the Learning Ability Battery (LAB) of tests to select the best candidates. These tests assess the candidates’ literacy, numeracy and entrepreneurial ability. This technique is mainly used on projects in large urban areas such as Tshwane.

b) Following a resource audit and liaison with the Project Liaison Committee, Targeted Enterprises are identified from the Designated Groups from the vicinity of the project as per the PPPFA regulations in the rural areas.

c) Provision for the utilisation and development of SMMEs is allowed for in all SANRAL contract documents and project types.

ii) is the success of such programmes ascertained and

a) SANRAL keeps record of every SMME that is contracted or sub-contracted on SANRAL projects.

b) SANRAL can thus track on how many contracts a specific SMME worked on, over what period, and monitor growth of the SMME by its ascension up the CIDB grades where the lowest grade is 1 (entry level) and the highest grade is 9.

This is the measure of success used by SANRAL. The programmes are however not without challenges and SANRAL’s new transformation policy seeks to address some of the shortcomings that have been identified in previous interventions.
