Reply:
- The Department currently does not routinely monitor such cases at university and Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) campuses. The Department has initiated a process to collect such data from institutions and developed an instrument to be distributed to institutions. Once responses have been received, a report will be provided.
- The Gender Based Violence (GBV) Policy and Strategic Framework is still in the process of development. HEAIDS developed the draft GBV Policy and Strategic Framework, and handed them over to the Department on 26 August 2018. The formal policy development process still needs to be conducted, such as conducting further external consultation, including with the Departments of Social Development, Health, Women, Justice and Constitutional Development, and the National Prosecuting Agency; a Socio-Economic Impact Assessment Study needs to be conducted; and a public comments process. The GBV Policy and Strategic Framework will provide an implementation plan that includes monitoring and reporting on incidents. Once finalised and published, the Department will monitor the implementation of the policy.

Kohler, Ms D to ask the Minister of Police
Whether, with reference to Silverton CAS 155/07/2011, (a) a certain person (name furnished) will be charged as a result of the report drafted by a certain person (name furnished) and signed off by the then-acting crime intelligence boss (name furnished); if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details?
Reply:
The investigation and a comprehensive charge sheet, with regard to Silverton, CAS 155/07/2011, has been finalised. The suspects in this matter were arrested, on 21 September 2011 and on 4 October 2011, respectively. The case was subsequently withdrawn against the accused, on 4 December 2011, based on a decision by the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA).
Based on a decision by the Supreme Court of Appeal, the matter was re-enrolled on the court roll at the Serious Commercial Crimes Court, Pretoria, on 1 April 2015. However, it was struck from the roll, on 6 July 2015, due to the fact that the documentation, which the State would be relying upon, was not yet declassified by the South African Police Service (SAPS).
This matter cannot proceed as the SAPS has not yet declassified the documentation, which was used in the commission of the alleged crimes.
The investigation includes the allegations made by Major General M Hankel, in the report to the Inspector General of Intelligence.
On 17 May 2017, the then Acting National Commissioner of the SAPS, Lieutenant General Phahlane, informed the National Director of Public Prosecutions (NDPP),

(c) (i)(ii) Please see attached working paper for amounts paid back and still owing.
(d) The employees agreed to pay back the money over a period ranging from 4 to 24 months
(e) The 2015/16 overpayment relates to the upskilling of traffic officers as per collective agreement 1 of 2015 between RTMC and organised labour. The collective agreement excluded senior inspectors from payment of an upskilling benefit however 24 names of senior inspectors were incorrectly included in the list of officials entitled to the benefit.
This mistake was identified after payment and senior inspectors were informed of the erroneous payment and repayment arrangements made.
In 2016/17, 17 employees were overpaid as a result of resignations subsequent to the salary payment date which is the 15th of each month. These overpayments were recovered from the leave pay-outs.
In this period an allowance due to the one official was incorrectly calculated resulting in overpayment. This was identified and the official made arrangements to repay the money.
In 2017/18, 16 employees were overpaid as a result of incorrect calculation of their 13th cheque.
(f) No interest was charged.

Railway Safety Regulator
(a)(i) During March 2017, the Railway Safety regulator became aware of overpayment of bonusses during the 2015/16 Financial Year period had been detected, and that recovery of such overpayments had to be initiated. The over-payment resulted in the incorrect salary scales being utilized for calculation of bonuses. A total of thirty nine (39) employees were affected:
The current RSR Debt Recovery Policy makes provision for recovery of overpayments for salaries, allowance and other related payments. The recovery of 2015/16 bonus overpayments was in line with the Debt Collectors Policy, and full consultations of employees has been concluded, as required. Recovery of the overpayment amounts for bonusses paid to executives during the 2015/16 financial year period, had commenced in March 2017. Recovery from other employees commenced in September 2017, in accordance with Section 9.6.2 of the RSR Debtor Management policy, which stipulates that “all internal debts shall be recovered within twelve months. The CEO may, under exceptional circumstances and upon submission of a motivation, approve any repayment period exceeding twelve months”. Consultations with the affected employees were conducted and employees were provided with the opportunity indicate their repayment preferences. Although it was the intention of the RSR to recover such overpayment during the 2017/18 financial year, with effect from September 2017 salary payments, certain RSR employees opted to repay their respective debt amount over a 12-month period, whilst permission was granted to 2 employees to exceed the twelve-month provision.
(a)(ii) No overpayments since April 2018 have occurred.
The Table below indicates the amounts which were recovered, as well as the period for such recovery. All monies have been recovered, and no interest was charged or paid.

Reply:
Based on information received from Denel SOC Limited:
Yes. The facility was lawful.
The facility was approved by the Board of Denel on 04 September 2012. Government (National Treasury and the Department of Public Enterprises) had approved the Domestic Medium Term Note (DMTN) in 2007/2008 for R2 200 000 000, which provided for both secured and unsecured components. The Regiments Capital R290 million loan (which funds turned out to be that of Johannesburg Metropolitan Municipality’s), was part of the unsecured component of the DMTN programme. This loan, like all the other loans under the DMTN programme, was duly registered with the Johannesburg Stock Exchange Securities. The identification and contracting of the up-takers of the facility would be the responsibility of the Board without further involvement of the Ministers of Finance and Public Enterprises.

Lekota, Mr M to ask the Minister of Health
With reference to his comments on the alleged corrupt collusion between the State Attorney’s office and claimants of supposed malpractice in his department (details furnished), (a) what were the circumstances that resulted in this type of fraud to be committed over a protracted period of time without detection, (b) who should have been exercising oversight and (c) what measures has his department put in place to stop this type of fraud?
Reply:
The State did not pay R 60 Billion since 2013 as alleged in your statement. The figure of R 60 Billion is the contingency liability and not the actual money paid to the claimants by the State. This is the money that if proved in the Court of Law, the State will have to pay to the claimants. This will only happen if we do not detect bogus or invalid claims.
(a) The Department of Justice will be better placed to respond to this as it has oversight over the State Attorney;
(b) The State Attorney is under the Department of Justice and they report the Chief Litigation Officer. Therefore, the Department of Justice is responsible for oversight;
(c) The Department is liaising with the law enforcement agencies such as the Hawks and SAPS and other bodies such as Law Societies.
Furthermore, the Department is in the issues a transversal tender to deal with Medico-Legal Cases and with the Terms of Reference that include among others, the following:
(i) Improved co-ordination of anti-corruption initiatives with the Provincial Government; and
(ii) Investigating effectively alleged economic crime (fraud, theft and corruption) as well as maladministration.
