Purdon, Mr RK to ask the Minister of Sport and Recreation
Whether, with reference to the reply of the President, Mr C. Ramaphosa, to the debate on the state of the Nation Address on 22 February 2018 to implement lifestyle audits, (a) she, (b) senior management services members in her department and/or (c) any of the heads of entities reporting to her have undergone a lifestyle audit in the past three financial years; if not, have any plans been put in place to perform such audits; if so, in each case, what are the details of the (i) date of the lifestyle audit, (ii) name of the person undergoing the audit, (iii) name of the auditing firm conducting the audit and (iv) outcome of the audit? (2) Whether she will furnish Mr. RK Purdok with copies of the lifestyle audit reports?
Reply:
Minister Xasa fully supports the call by President Ramaphosa, for the public service to institute a lifestyle audit mechanism to monitor the lifestyles of personnel in the public service, especially the members of SMS and other senior people in the service of the public, including personnel at the leadership of state entities.
To this end, the Minister has noted the question from the Honourable Purdon (MPL), in relation to lifestyle audits. However, to date, the Minister has not found cause to institute any audits on the lifestyles of any personnel in the Ministry and neither is there cause to institute any such audits on the heads of entities, at this stage.

Hlonyana, Ms NKF to ask the Minister of Human Settlements
What is the number of houses that needs to be built in each province to eradicate the housing backlog and enable each South African in the country to live in formal housing?
Reply:
According to information derlved from Statistics South Africa's 2016 Community Survey, which is the latest official national data available, the estimated national housing backlog is estimated at 2.1 million. On the other hand, a total of 3.9 million people have registered their need for housing on the National Housing Needs Register (NHNR). It must however be noted that the numbers registered on the NHNR are being processed on an on-going basis to determine qualification for government's subsidised opportunities. So this is work in progress and not actual demand/need. Although significant inroads have been made to reduce the backlog, it remains relatively the same over years due to increasing demand that outstrips supply. The provincial breakdown of the backlog/need is illustrated in the table below.

What is the cost in Rand for each province to eradicate the backlog?
As explained in question (a) above, the assessment of individuals who have registered on the NHNR to determine if they do qualify for state housing subsidy is an ongoing process. Therefore some of the individuals may not be eligible to receive a state housing subsidy. Those who do qualify, may require different housing programme interventions, depending on their need and locality. If all the individuals on the NHNR qualify for the Individual Housing Subsidy (BNG house), about R622 billion will be required to provide land, serviced site and top structure at the current housing subsidy of R168 852.00.

2. It must be noted that the construction cost is separate from the cost of land as well as provision of water and sanitation. These costs per uniVhouse can be broken down as follows:
- Raw Land- R6 000
- Water and Sanitation- R7 673
3. The National Department provides the Provinces with a sector adopted subsidy quantum guideline which allocates R168 852 per house as follows:
- Top Structure- R116 867
- Service cost- R 45 985
- Raw Land- R 6 000
The main reasons for the variances includes amongst others the following:
- The housing programme(s) implemented by a Province
In most cases implementation of Rural Housing Programme cost less than that of Social Housing Programme such as Community Residential Programme.
- Bulk Provision
In urban areas, bulk has to be provided before top structure can be constructed and the costs of that bulk are included in the total cost of the construction.
- Environmental impact
The environmental conditions of coastal areas differs significantly to those of inland Provinces and this pushes the costs of constructing houses for mainly coastal areas with prolonged rainy seasons.
- Acquisition of building material
In certain Provinces, building material has to be acquired in Metropolitan areas such as Gauteng and the cost of transport has a cost bearing in the acquisition of building material.
- Labour costs
For rural areas, the cost of labour is less as compared to urban areas and construction costs end up belng lesser as a result.

Whether she has received the report by the Auditor-General regarding the investigation she commissioned into the R80 million investment made by the Community Scheme Ombud Services with VBS Mutual Bank, if not, what is the position in this regards, if so, what (a) are the relevant details of the report and (b) further action has she instituted after receipt of the report?
Reply:
Upon the matter being drawn to my attention, I directed a letter to the Auditor General to conduct an investigation into the matter of the CSOS investments of its surpluses into financial institutions. The Auditor-General confirmed that it would undertake a regulatory audit as part of the annual audit of the CSOS. The report is still outstanding and once presented will be scrutinised for required steps to be taken should it be found that persons had acted unlawfully, illegally and/or there was fraud, mismanagement, corruption or otherwise.
In addition I have directed that the Director-General taken necessary steps to have a forensic audit carried out as well as consult and ensure that the SIU and/or Hawks are directed to investigate the matter of the CSOS investment of surplus funds in financial institutions.
As and when required I will provide reports to Parliament on the details and progress related to this matter.

Matiase, Mr NS to ask the Minister of Human Settlements
What is the total number of houses that were given to recipients in each Municipality in 2017?
Reply:
During the 2017/18 Financial Year, a total of 135 981 housing opportunities (made up of 49 935 serviced sites and 86 046 houses/units) were delivered through the Human Settlement Development Grant (HSDG) by the nine provincial departments in conjunction with their respective municipalities.
Of the total number of housing opportunities, 86 046 were new houses that were built across the various national housing programmes, including 3 041 social, rental, hostel and institutional subsidy units which are not given to beneficiaries but remain government (municipal) or institutional rental housing stock.
In addition, the Finance-Linked Individual Subsidy Programme (FLISP) achieved an output of 1 964 beneficiaries who received subsidies and were able to obtain mortgage loans for their houses.
In summary, 81 041 houses were built and allocated to qualifying beneficiaries or recipients. Please see link for Annexure A for a detailed breakdown of housing allocation in each province.

Mokgalapa, Mr S to ask the Minister of International Relations and Cooperation
Whether the Government has a policy on the conditions and/or circumstances under which South Africa is willing to engage with perceived dictatorial leaders in Africa and beyond; if so, (a) do such leaders have to meet any requirements in order to enjoy the support of the Government and (b) did the Government take the Democratic Republic of the Congo’s (DRC) refusal to permit Mr Moise Katumbi, an opposition party candidate, entry into the country into consideration while planning the President’s trip to the DRC, given that it posed an alleged fundamental threat to democratic processes in the DRC?
Reply:
(a) At the heart of South Africa’s foreign policy since 1994 is the promotion of democracy, rule of law, good governance and observance of human rights. South Africa therefore conducts her bilateral relations with the countries on the Continent and beyond desiring to achieve these objectives.
(b) The Working Visit of the President to the DRC was part of his courtesy visit to the region since he assumed office. The purpose of such visits is to consult on bilateral cooperation and issues of common interest. The matter of Mr Katumbi was part of bilateral discussions during which the Government of the DRC explained their national legal requirements that prevented Mr Katumbi from registering in the national elections. The explanation was noted.

Lekota, Mr M to ask the Minister of Finance
Whether the Government intends to provide financial assistance or bail-outs to state-owned entities; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, what are the details thereof?
Reply:
Government’s principle is that, as far as possible, any financial support to SOCs should be done in a deficit-neutral manner (i.e. not lead to a widening of the deficit). This can be done through a combination of the sale of non-core assets, reprioritisation of spending, or other revenue measures. Nevertheless – as noted in the 2018 Budget Review – the SOC sector represents a major risk to the fiscal framework, and reforms are required to put these companies on a more sustainable footing. Part of the reform process will involve costing of developmental mandates, to provide government with a better understanding of the level of support required for non-commercial activities. Another part of the reform will require understanding how to bolster their commercial activities, through a combination of efficiency improvements and private sector participation. The budget process is currently under way. Any decisions around financial support to SOCs will be considered as part of this broader process, and be published in the 2018 MTBPS.

Ms Keketso Semoko |
R220,000.00 |
The Department was charged with the responsibility to host the cultural programme of both the Chinese State visit and the BRICS Summit. The initial productions contracted had limitations in the planned showcasing of South African diverse cultures. As a result the Chine state visit performances were cancelled and focus was placed on the BRICS performances. This arrangement meant that new arts practitioners, service providers and new script designed to ensure the showcasing of South African diverse cultures. As a consequence some contracts of artists had to be renegotiated accordingly and this affected almost all preforming contracts of artists and payment schedules. |

De Freitas, Mr MS to ask the Minister of Transport
(a) What number of (i) trains, (ii) coaches and (iii) locomotives have been vandalised (aa) in each month and (bb) in the past three financial years, (b) where did each incident take place and (c) what are the relevant details of the investigations that followed each incident, particularly with regard to the (i) outcomes and (ii) recommendations of each specified investigation?
Reply:
A Metrorail train consist of several motor coaches (electrical powered units) and a number of plain trailers - coaches. Normally a full train set (train) consist of 12 coaches (3 motor coaches and 9 plain trailers). The response reflects the coaches and the equivalent 12-coach Metrorail train sets (trains). Metrorail does not utilize locomotives. Locomotives are used in MLPS and in freight at Transnet.
a) Details of the incidents on vandalism of Rolling Stock has only been kept by Protection Services since December 2016 when vandalism became an endemic problem. The information is kept on the fleet maintenance side as well but is not readily available.
b) File attached.
c) (i) File attached.
(ii) As can be seen from the numbers involved, investigations internally are not done for each and every case. Cases are opened with SAPS with the available information and the results of SAPS investigations is included in (c)(i). The Prasa Rescue plan includes actions to address the protection of assets in the Metrorail environment.

Tshwaku, Mr M to ask the Minister of Basic Education
(a) What is the total number of matric results at Mashiyamahle High School that have not been released by (i) the school and (ii) her department in the (aa) 2014, (bb) 2015, (cc) 2016 and (dd) 2017 academic years, (b) what are the reasons that the results have not been released and (c) on what date will her department release the results?
Reply:
a) Mashiyamahle High School was implicated in group copying in 2014 and the examination protocol in terms of results that are compromised due to an irregularity is to withhold the results in subjects that are irregular and conduct a full investigation and a hearing so that a decision can be made on culpability. Hence, in the case of:
(aa) 2014: 106 candidates did not receive their complete results
(bb) 2015: All candidates received their results
(cc) 2016: All candidates received their results
(dd) 2017: 12 candidates were found to be guilty of an irregularity in Mathematical Literacy and their results in Mathematical Literacy were nullified, but the results in the other subjects were released.
b) In the case of 2014 candidates, on 9 June 2015, an investigative team comprising officials from the Provincial Education Department (PED), Department of Basic Education (DBE) and Umalusi arrived at the school to conduct the investigations, after having notified the school. The officials were taken hostage by the parents and learners and this later became violent and resulted in officials’ cars being stoned and their valuables stolen. Departmental officials had to escape from the school, through a hole in the fence and were escorted out of the area by the Police. Subsequently, repeated attempts were made to serve notices on the implicated candidates, inviting them to a hearing and there has been no response. The school engaged the services of a lawyer and this has also contributed to the delay. The Department, approached two local Radio Stations and a local newspaper to publicise a request for the learners implicated in the 2014 examination irregularity at the Mashiyamahle school, to report to the school principal, to facilitate the hearings. The principal subsequently responded that there were no responses.
c) The DBE and Umalusi met with a group of parents and learners from the school on Friday, 24 August 2018, and it was agreed that the learners continued refusal to participate in the hearings has delayed the finalisation of this matter, and given that the learners have in a sense self-imposed a sanction on themselves for the four year period, the results of those candidates that wrote the supplementary examination in 2015, in the subjects that they were implicated, will have these results combined with the uncompromised results of 2014 and released to the candidates on 31 August 2018. Unfortunately, this arrangement to provide the combined, uncompromised results to the candidates was disrupted by a group of candidates that insisted on being provided with their full results of the 2014 NSC examination. The Department has subsequently agreed to have the results made available at the Illembe district office and those candidates who wish to collect the results can do so. The availability of the results at the Illembe district will be published in the local newspapers and the local radio stations.

Mthethwa, Mr EM to ask the Minister of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs
In light of the fact that the future of the country depends on the investment in its youth, what (a) programmes has his department put in place to promote youth development and empowerment and (b) funding has been set aside for these programmes?
Reply:
(a) Below is the list of programmes that the department has put in place to promote youth development and empowerment
MISA’s Capacity Building Programme
1. The Municipal Infrastructure Support Agent (MISA) has a capacity-building programme that provides opportunities for young people who qualified from TVETs, Technical Colleges and Universities with a civil, electrical, town planning or other related studies, required for infrastructure development and maintenance in municipalities.
2. Since 2012, MISA’s Programme coverage has been of a national magnitude. The biggest component of this Programme has always been the artisan development (Apprenticeship) sub-programme for the purposes of building capacity to operate and maintain existing infrastructure. Between 2014/15 and 2015/16, this sub-programme registered over 400 apprentices. Two hundred and fifty-nine participants qualified as artisans between 2013/14 and 2014/15. The intake for 2017/18 and 2018/19 financial years stood at 303 and 230, respectively. In this regard, work opportunities have been offered by MISA to 100 young people in eight (08) targeted municipalities across the Northern Cape, Free State, Mpumalanga and Limpopo Provinces as Artisans and Water Process Controllers.
3. Experiential Learners referred to the group of candidates pursuing studies to be technicians, yet requiring practice and workplace experience to continue with their academic training. Forty-two of these groups have been registered from March 2014 to March 2016 for experiential learning at qualifying municipalities. They have since completed their required experiential training and have gone back to complete their academic studies. The intake for 2017/18 and 2018/19 experiential learners stands at 90 and 100, respectively.
4. In as far as the Bursary Scheme is concerned, one hundred and eighty-six candidates were registered from 2014, whilst in 2016, one hundred and sixty-four (164) young people have been awarded bursaries for technical infrastructure-related studies. For the current financial year 2018/19, MISA plans to award bursaries to 150 disadvantaged students studying towards town planning, civil and electrical engineering qualifications.
The table below provides a breakdown of the various sub-programme in-takes:

The Disaster Management Bursary Programme
1. The Department of Cooperative Governance (DCoG) introduced a Disaster Management Bursary Programme under the National Disaster Management Centre (NDMC). The overall objective of the bursary programme is to contribute towards building capacity and skills enhancement in disaster risk management, through advanced education, training, public awareness and research services.
2. In the 2017 academic year, the NDMC successfully awarded 39 bursaries to qualifying students. Out of the 39 students, 33 completed their studies in the 2017 academic year and 5 are still continuing with their studies in the 2018 academic year. In the 2018 academic year, the NDMC successfully awarded 41 bursaries to new applicants and 30 of the recipients were young people. Applications for the Disaster Management Bursary Programme are published annually through print media and the NDMC’s website.
The Community Works Programme (CWP)
1. In addition, the Department is also implementing the Community Work Programme (CWP), as part of the government-wide Expanded Public Works Programme. The CWP’s youth participation rate for the 2017/18 financial year is broken down in the table below:
Total Participation Rate |

22004 |
37.35% |
29.05% |
8.31% |
Table 1: Youth Participation in CWP 2017/18 FY
2. The Department is forming partnerships with institutions of higher learning to ensure the up-skilling of participants. Sixteen (16) CWP participants have graduated with a 3 year Grade R Diploma from the North West University. On 8 June 2018, 55 participants in Mahikeng obtained NQF Level 2 qualification in Environmental Practice through training provided by LGSETA. Young participants are also being supported to establish their own cooperatives through training provided in partnership with the Reggio Emilia municipality in Italy. The Department has further partnered with the Centre for the Study of Violence and Reconciliation (CSVR) and GIZ to train young participants on crime prevention in Orange Farm, Ivory Park and Khayelitsha; as a result of this, crimes against women and children have been reduced in the pilot sites in these areas.
(b) Funding for the programmes:

Source: PERSAL, July 2018
(b) Vacancies occur at schools throughout the year mainly as a result of natural attrition with key drivers being resignations, retirements and to a lesser extent deaths. Also to note is that Provincial Education Departments (PEDs) advertise and fill promotional posts, at most, twice a year. Acting appointments are made in promotional posts as soon as the post becomes vacant. In order to address workload challenges, PEDs make temporary appointment against vacant promotional posts where necessary.
(c) About 44% of the posts as at the end of July 2018 were six (6) months or less vacant; 24% vacant of 7-12 months, 9 % up to 24 months and 23% longer than 24 months. Of the posts that were vacant for more than 12 months, about 45% were those in small schools of between one (1) and three (3) teachers some of them on the verge of being closed due to decreasing or consistently low enrolment.
2. The question is more relevant to the provincial administration because it is the responsibility of the Employer, who in terms of section 3(1)(b) of the Employment of Educators Act is the Head of the Provincial Education Department, to ensure that vacancies are filled and to attend to any dispute that arises at the provincial level.
The question should therefore be forwarded to the relevant Employers for details and response.

De Freitas, Mr MS to ask the Minister of Transport
With reference to the reply to question 3817 on 28 November 2017, (a) why are height restrictions of 4,3 m going to be re-introduced, (b) what economic impact analysis has been undertaken in relation to the country’s immediate neighbours, including the countries of the Southern African Development Community, internationally once the specified restrictions have been re-introduced and (c) what are the results of the analysis?
Reply:
(a) There is no re-introduction of the vehicle and load height restriction as provided for in terms of regulation 224 of the National Road Traffic Regulations, 2000 under the National Road Traffic Act, 1996 (Act No.93 of 1996) (“the Act”). The height restriction has always been part of the Act. The special dispensation that was granted exempting the operation of motor vehicles transporting ISO Containers from complying with the provisions of regulation 224(b) is lapsing with effect from 1 January 2019. This special dispensation was granted to allow the industry to procure and/or source complaint trailers to transport high cube containers come 01 January 2019. The intention was not to exempt the industry indefinitely.
(b) There is no obligation on my Department to conduct an economic impact analysis because there is no intention to amend Regulation 224 of the National Road Traffic Act. It would go against the established legislative drafting conventions for my Department to conduct an economic impact analysis or research whilst the legislation is in effect. Simply put, research informs legislative drafting not the other way around.
(c) Refer to (b) above.

Ntombela, Mr MLD to ask the Minister of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs
Has the Local Government Management Improved Model and Assessment Tool been effective in measuring the quality of service delivery that takes place within local government and (b) Has there been improvement in the overall management of local government with the specified tool as a contributing factor?
Reply:
(a) 1. The Local Government Management Improved Model (LGMIM) is under the custodianship of the Department of Planning, Monitoring and Evaluation (DPME) and the information provided here was sourced from the DPME. The rollout of the LGMIM is currently in its fifth (5th) year since its inception and pilot. To date, one hundred and forty six (146) municipalities comprising of metropolitan, district and local municipalities participated in the programme. Of the total, twelve (12) were assessed during the 2013/14 financial year in the pilot phase, thirty (30) municipalities were assessed in the 2014/15 and 2015/16 financial years respectively, forty-one (41) municipalities were assessed during the 2016/17 financial year and thirtythree (33) municipalities during the 2017/18 financial year.
2. The logic of the Local Government Management Improvement Model (LGMIM) is that institutions matter and for service delivery and productivity to improve, the quality of institutions is important. To this end the LGMIM is aimed at facilitating the development of an in-depth understanding of the operating environment and quality of management and work place practices of municipalities that are key for improving service delivery.
3. As such the LGMIM does not measure the quality of service delivery per se, but rather the management practices and work place capabilties that are the necessary pre-conditions (or enbaling conditions) for improving service delivery in municipalities. It does this by identifying institutional problems, thereby positioning the senior leadership of municipalities to meet the minimum norms and standards of good institutional performance to deliver on their developmental outcomes. LGMIM does not include an assessment of actual deliverables against planned deliverables.
4. What differentiates LGMIM from other monitoring processes is that it provides an integrated and holistic view of a municipality’s performance across several critical key performance areas, thus making it easier to prioritise areas that are in need of significant improvement and potential support. It may also highlight issues that impact on service delivery in relation to areas of general non-compliance to legislative, regulatory and/or best practice prescripts. For example, it may highlight whether a participating municipality is adhering to a specific management practice or norm such as making adequate provision for refurbishment and maintenance of assets or whether it is producing audit action plans to address the findings from the Audit outcomes.
(b) 1. The LGMIM is one of several initiatives (albeit specialised and focused on the internal operating environment of municipalities) utilized within the local government sphere in an attempt to support and improve the performance of municipalities such as Back2Basics and the the Auditor General’s performance audits, and therefore it is difficult to attribute service delivery improvement solely to LGMIM.
2. The LGMIM is a management information tool intended to assist the municipal leadership to analyse how the organisation works and how it approaches key operational tasks in 6 key performance areas and which performance gaps need to be addressed to ensure the delivery of quality services and improve productivity.
3. The LGMIM is utilised by departments specifically mandated with a support function, such as the Department of Cooperative Governance, sector departments and provincial departments responsible for local government as an additional data source to inform the development and tailoring of support plans and initiatives to facilitate improved service delivery.
4. There is a close relationship between the DPME and provincial departments responsible for local government in conducting the assessments so as to ensure that these departments have direct and real-time access to the assessment results to inform their support initiatives to the various participating municipalities.

Vos, Mr J to ask the Minister of Transport
(1)What progress has been made regarding the ratification with other African countries of the Yamoussoukro Decision regarding the Open Skies for Africa policy; (2) what is the Government’s position on the specified decision; (3) in what manner have the delays in implementing the decision affected the air services market in South Africa, with regard to packaging the Southern African Development Community region amongst international arrivals?
Reply:
1. Yamoussoukro Decision is not a treaty to be ratified but an African Civil Aviation Policy for the integration and the establishment of a Single African Air Transport Market to enhance African Intra-Trade and Tourism. In terms of Section 35 of the International Air Services Act 60 of 1993, the Minister may, exercise the delegated authority by the State President to enter into any air transport services agreement with the government or other appropriate authority of another State or Territory regarding the control over and regulation of any class or type of International air services operated or to be operated between the Republic and that State or Territory. In the absence of a continental multilateral institutions to fully regularise air transport, South Africa has concluded thirty-eight (38) Bilateral Air Services Agreements (BASA’s) with willing and able states in line with the principle of Yamoussoukro Decision (YD) awaiting the institutionalisation of a multilateral framework to fully regulate the continental civil aviation. South Africa has further integrated the principles of YD in the National Civil Aviation Policy that has since been approved by Cabinet on the 15th of February 2017.
2. Government is in full support of the integration and establishment of the Single African Air market. South Africa has to date signed the Declaration for Solemn Commitment to the implementation of YD towards the establishment of Single African Air Transport Market (SAATM). The former President, His Excellency Mr. Jacob Gedleyihlekisa Zuma, witnessed the launch of SAATM during the 30th Ordinary Session of the Assembly of the Union, in January 2018.
3. Implementation of YD has been slow and limited. The delay has caused South African and rest of the continent to miss out on substantial economic benefits. Some air transport markets between Africa and countries outside of Africa have been liberalized to a significant extent. But most intra-African aviation markets remain closed and regulated through bilateral agreements which limit the growth and development of air services.
Air services arrangements with the South African Development Community (SADC) have been restricted, limiting airline participation in the market. However, of recent, some SADC states are slowly embracing the principles of YD and are progressively liberalizing key elements of the Bilateral Air Services Agreements. Restrictions on designation of airlines on specific routes and limited capacity still exist in air services arrangements with Namibia, Angola, Mauritius, Tanzania, Madagascar and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Reluctance of these states to embrace YD has negatively affected South African airlines desiring to either introduce new services or expanding existing markets. The Government, however, continues to engage these States bilaterally and multilaterally to encourage them to be part of the African Union initiative of creating a single air transport market for Africa.

1.1 Firefighting is a profession which is one of the most stressful, physically demanding and hazardous occupation. Thus, Firefighters must master a complex mix of three core competencies being foundational knowledge, physical skill and work experience to be successful in their occupation.
1.2 The nature of work carried out by firefighters requires not only adequate training when entering the profession but also continuous professional development to ensure that firefighters stay abreast with the constant technological changes in their working environment.
1.3 It is important to note that training of firefighters must be benchmarked against globally accepted standards. Within the South African context, the Southern African Emergency Services Institute (SAESI) is accredited to provide occupational training for firefighters by the International Fire Service Accreditation Congress (IFSAC) which is based in the United States of America (USA).
1.4 IFSAC is a non-profit, peer-driven, self-governing system of both fire service certifying entities and higher education fire-related degree programs. IFSAC's mission is to plan and administer a high-quality, uniformly delivered accreditation system with an international scope.
1.5 Thus, IFSAC courses which are provided by SAESI such as Firefighter I and II, Hazmat Awareness and Operational are utilised by fire services in South Africa to recruit entry-level firefighters. These courses are based on the American National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standards and are utilised both in the USA and several other countries for the basic training of firefighters.
1.6 The Local Government Sector Education and Training (LGSETA) has also developed a qualification known as the Fire and Rescue Operations, Level 4 in terms of the National Qualifications Framework (NQF) based on the same NFPA Standards. Firefighters must obtain formal qualifications in order to progress in their careers within the fire services. Qualifications in Fire Technology are currently provided by the Tshwane University of Technology (TuT) and includes a National Diploma, BTECH Degree and Master’s Degree. These are the qualifications that are also utilised by fire services to recruit senior fire officers in the country.
1.7 The NDMC is finalising the review of the Fire Brigade Services Act, 1987 and as part of the revised legislation and policy framework, a national fire services education and training strategy will be developed to guide the provision of training in the fire service.

As mandated by the National Railway Safety Regulator Act, No 16 0f 2002, each operator is responsible and accountable for ensuring the safety of railway operations, while the Railway Safety Regulator (RSR) is accountable for providing adequate and appropriate oversight of the safety of railway operations.
a) Railway Operators submit annual Safety Management System Reports (SMSR) to the RSR and at the core of the SMSR is the Annual Safety Improvement Plan. The Annual Safety Improvement Plan contains the operator’s annual railway operational improvement plans that demonstrate how the operator has resourced themselves to mitigate the risks that they identify in their railway operations. The SANS 3000 standards guide the operators on the content of the plans.
Operators throughout the nine provinces have Safety Management Systems as mandated by the SANS 3000 series of standards. The Annual Safety Improvement Plan contains the Operator Risk Assessment, the Controls to reduce or mitigate the risks and the Targets aimed at reducing the incidents. The Action Plans are also found in the Annual Safety Improvement Plan of the operators.
b) The plan would, among measures, indicate how the operator plans to reduce level crossing incidents, people struck by train incidents (PSBT), collisions, derailments, theft and vandalism incidents, etc.
To mitigate the risks identified in each rail operator’s Risk Registers, the operators approve and execute COPEX and CAPEX Projects. For example, the Platform Projects by PRASA are aimed at mitigating the Platform Train Interface (PTI) incidents, the Walling Project at reducing the PSBT incidents, Re-signalling Projects at reducing collisions, etc.
c) Most of the key projects are at construction stages while some are at commissioning stages. The RSR conducts reviews on these projects through all project life cycle phases to ensure that the new works do not introduce new risks to the railway system and where these cannot be eliminated, that necessary mitigation measures are implemented.
d) The SANS 3000-1 standard specifies that incidents must be reported to the RSR. It states which incidents must be reported within 15 minutes, daily, etc. All reported incidents find their way into the Annual State of Safety Report. The RSR conducts Audits and Inspections on the operators to oversee their compliance towards their safety management systems and plans.

(b) Vacancies occur at schools throughout the year mainly as a result of natural attrition with key drivers being resignations, retirements and to a lesser extent deaths. Also to note is that Provincial Education Departments (PEDs) advertise and fill promotional posts, at most, twice a year. Acting appointments are made in promotional posts as soon as the post becomes vacant. In order to address workload challenges, PEDs make temporary appointment against vacant promotional posts where necessary.
(c) About 41% of the posts, as at the end of July 2018, were six (6) months or less vacant; 19% vacant of 7-12 months, 7% up to 24 months and 33% longer than 24 months. Of the posts that were vacant for more than 12 months, about 65% were those in small schools of between one (1) and three (3) teachers some of them on the verge of being closed due to decreasing or consistently low enrolment.
2. The question is more relevant to the provincial administration because it is the responsibility of the Employer, who in terms of section 3(1)(b) of the Employment of Educators Act is the Head of the Provincial Education Department, to ensure that vacancies are filled and to attend to any dispute that arises at the provincial level.
The question should therefore be forwarded to the relevant Employers for details and response.
