Tetyana, Mr Y to ask the Minister of Health
Given that Medico-legal claims of more than R20 billion in Gauteng at present are concerning, (a)(i) which healthcare facilities account for most of the specified claims and (ii) what steps has he and/or his department taken to intervene in such healthcare facilities, (b) how has he found that the intervention steps have improved the situation and (c)(i) what is the nature of the majority of claims and (ii) how are they resolvable in the long term?
Reply:
a) (i) According to the Gauteng Provincial Department of Health, the top 10 (Ten) healthcare facilities which account for the most specified claims are as follows:
Health facilities:
- Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital
- Thelle Mogoerane Regional Hospital
- Tembisa Hospital
- Dr. George Mukhari Hospital
- Charlotte Maxeke Academic Hospital
- Sebokeng Hospital
- Rahima Moosa Mother and Child Hospital
- Bertha Gxowa Hospital
- Pholosong Hospital
- Mamelodi Hospital
(ii) According to the Gauteng Provincial Department of Health, the Department is taking the following steps to intervene in the Gauteng Healthcare facilities:
• The Department is conducting root cause analysis at clinical level of cases that result in medico-legal claims and adverse incidents and also working at eliminating the challenges at the root cause level i.e the shortage of staff & medical equipment, theatres and generally improved service delivery;
• Improving clinical care as part of the clinical risk management process, based on specific clinical audits of adverse events;
• Implementing intervention strategies with the CEO’s of the Hospitals and implementation of consequence management;
• Increasing in the number of Doctors to enhance the patient to Doctor ratio and improving midwifery training of nurses;
(b) It is difficult to say that the intervention steps have improved the situation as the Department is currently undertaking these interventions.
(c) (i) According to the Gauteng Provincial Department of Health, the majority are Cerebral Palsy.
(ii) According to the Gauteng Provincial Department of Health, these matters would be resolved by intervention from clinical services through an intensive training of the clinicians dealing with patients at the healthcare facilities.
It is critical to note that not all medico-legal cases that have been laid against Provincial Departments are as the result of negligence as some are fraudulent.
The following are clinical interventions coordinated from the national level as the result of the Medico-Legal Summit Declaration where Provincial Departments are encouraged to implement:
- A culture of patient safety and medical accountability must be enforced by the Head of the institution i.e. in the case of hospitals, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO);
- All hospital managers must implement the Patients’ Rights Charter;
- Clinical governance must be uniformly implemented;
- Morbidity and Mortality (M&M) reviews and clinical audits of all adverse events must be implemented immediately;
- There must be a compulsory multidisciplinary approach in ward rounds, M&M and other peer review meetings;
- Continuous patient safety campaigns must be conducted;
- The referral of patients must occur at an early and appropriate time; and
- There must be strict adherence to standard operating procedures (SOPs) and scope of practice at all times to avoid preventable safety failures.
Furthermore, the Provinces are also encouraged to have facilities that are properly equipped to provide future medical treatment to address the issue of future medical expenses which normally constitute 80% Medico-Legal claims quantum.
The abovementioned interventions are assisting in reducing the actual amounts payable to the Plaintiffs.

Makamba-Botya, Ms N to ask the Minister of Health
With reference to his statement that his department will be prioritising funds to help with water storage infrastructure, following the rising infections at Gauteng hospitals due to the water crisis, (a)(i) in what way and (ii) in which period will his department be doing this and (b)(i) to what effect will the intervention take place and (ii) which areas, facilities and communities will be affected by this intervention?
Reply:
On the 19 September 2023, the Zuikerbosch water treatment plant had a breakdown caused by a power trip, which affected the production of water supply.
(a) Short-term temporary intervention should there be a similar crisis: (i)&(ii) water tankers are on standby to prevent health services being affected by such crisis. Some of the hospitals in Gauteng have reservoirs and some have boreholes as part of the back-up alternative in case there are similar crisis.
(b) Long-term permanent intervention: (i)&(ii) Rand Water is in the process of commissioning a new purification plant which will be impacting all health facilities within the City of Tshwane, the City of Ekurhuleni and the City of Johannesburg, among others. This plant is intending to deliver 150-million litres of potable water a day into Rand Water’s system, and by the end of 2024.

Tito, Ms LF to ask the Minister of Health
Given that in his address at the United Nations on 22 September 2023 wherein he stated that the Republic has made progress in transforming the public healthcare sector, despite the sustained regression in the public healthcare sector that has even been noted by the Auditor-General in consecutive years, (a) which progress in transformation was he referring to and (b) how is the progress measured?
Reply:
a) Progress on public healthcare sector transformation
The Minister was referring to transformation of health services in South Africa since 1994, which began with the Reconstruction and Development Programme (RDP) that emanated from the Freedom Charter. RDP aimed at redressing the harmful effects of apartheid and complete transformation of the entire health delivery system.
Key milestones in health transformation were: the establishment of a national health system (NHS) made up of various role players; the implementation of an extensive programme of public clinic building & upgrading; provision of free primary health care (PHC) health services and essential drugs in PHC facilities; the orientation of services and emphasis on PHC approach enshrined in the White Paper on the Transformation of the Health System in 1997 and the National Health Act of 2003; as well as the establishment of the district health system (DHS) as a vehicle to deliver & manage PHC services closer to where people live.
Several other initiatives were undertaken to transform health services delivery to ensure better access for all including:
- The Bilateral Health Cooperation Agreement signed between the Governments of the Republic of South Africa and Cuba in 1996 provided an opportunity for recruitment of young South African students to undergo medical training in Cuba through the Nelson Mandela Fidel Castro Medical Training Programme (NMFC). To date, 3071 doctors have been produced through the NMFC.
- The pricing legislation introduced Single Exit Prices (SEPs) in 2006 for registered and unregistered medicines, determining appropriate logistics fees for wholesalers and distributors of pharmaceuticals, as well as formulating the dispensing fees for pharmacists and licensed persons. This pricing legislation reduced medicines prices by 45%, which reduced financial barrier and increased access to much needed medicines for ordinary people.
- The shift from curative care to preventive care was strengthened by “PHC Reengineering” strategy adopted in 2010. PHC reengineering involved the deployment of community health workers, school health services and the district clinical specialist model which focussed on disease prevention and addressing key drivers of maternal and infant mortality.
- The Office of Health Standards and Compliance established in 2013 has been instrumental in safeguarding the quality of healthcare services in health facilities and ensuring compliance to norms and standards.
The health system strength was tested during COVID-19, and proved to be resilient enough to curb the pandemic and provide care to all those who needed it. Currently, the country is engaged in National Health Insurance (NHI) as a major health reform in pursuit of Universal Health Coverage.
The latest Auditor-General Report for FY2022/23 Annual Report acknowledged the progress that the Department is making to improve audit outcomes.
b) Public health service transformation is measured by monitoring indicator performance, evaluations of each individual component/intervention, conducting research surveys and analyzing civil registration vital statistics data to monitor outcomes at a population level. The examples are a) the District Health Barometer which gauges district performance on service delivery; b) Early Childhood Development programme evaluation; and c) the South African Demographic & Health Survey (SADHS)
The World Health Organization (WHO) introduced the UHC service coverage index to measure progress in the provision of UHC as required for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It is a single composite indicator that includes reproductive, maternal, newborn and child health; infectious diseases; non-communicable diseases; as well as service capacity and access among the general and the most disadvantaged population. The WHO Tracking Universal Health Coverage: 2023 Global Monitoring Report shows that SA UHC index improved from medium (43%) in 2000 to high (71%) in 2021.

Clarke, Ms M to ask the Minister of Health
(1)Whether he will furnish Mrs M O Clarke with a list of all (a) hospitals, (b) clinics and (c) other public health facilities that have upgraded to electronic record-keeping in each province; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details; (2) whether he will furnish Mrs M O Clarke with a list of all the specified public health facilities that do not have working (a) telephones, (b) computers and/or laptops, (c) access to the internet and/or WiFi and (d) any other information and communications technology infrastructure; if not, why not; if so, what are the reasons that each facility does not have the specified equipment; (3) what are the reasons that some public health facilities have not yet been electronically upgraded; (4) what is the envisaged (a) cost and (b) time frame for each province to upgrade to electronic systems?
Reply:
1. We are not in a position to provide a list of all (a) hospitals, (b) clinics and (c) other public health facilities that have upgraded to electronic record-keeping per province because each province has a complex set of different solutions. However, we can report on the systems that are installed as follows:
The national department of Health together with provinces implemented the Health Patient Registration System (HPRS) as the first step to the development and implementation of a shared electronic health record. The HPRS records a patient’s visit and categorise the patient’s reason for visit.
A list of facilities where the HPRS has been installed is provided in a separate spreadsheet of 3474 public health facilities.
The following responses were received from the provinces
Eastern Cape
Eastern Cape is in the process of installing the Health Management System Version 2 (HMS2) system in the following 32 facilities and services:
Free State
Only 1 facility (National Hospital) has been upgraded to an electronic record-keeping system in the province.
Limpopo
41 hospitals are using ‘Enterprise Manager’ known in the province as Provincial Health Information System (PHIS). Clinics are using the Health Patient Registration System (HPRS).
Northern Cape
All Facilities are making use of manual record keeping. The province is upgrading the record keeping at facilities (new files, cabinets, etc) first and will then start to look at implementing an electronic version (digitization).
North West
No health facility in North West Province has upgraded to an electronic record keeping system. The province has approved a pilot project to be implemented in three health facilities as proof of concept for digitalization of patient record. The project is ongoing.
Mpumalanga
The Mpumalanga Department of Health appointed a service provider in 2022/23 financial year to scan and archive patient records in the following hospitals: Rob Ferreira Hospital, Themba Hospital, Ermelo Hospital, Witbank Hospital, Mapulaneng Hospital, Tintswalo Hospital, Middelburg Hospital, Bernice Samuel Hospital and Tonga Hospital.
Western Cape
The Western Cape Department of Health (WCDOH) has embarked on a journey to upgrade from paper record-keeping to electronic record-keeping which is a complex, medium to long term programme.
Patient Administration systems: Clinicom Patient Administration system in 53 hospitals. Primary Healthcare Information system (PHCIS) in all 308 primary healthcare facilities in the province. The PREHMIS primary care system in 95 of the City of Cape Town (CoCT) clinics.
Clinical investigations: The Trakcare laboratory system, can be accessed by all facilities. The RIS PACS is a digital imaging system in 13 Facilities.
The NDOH has not yet received an update from KwaZulu Natal (KZN) and Gauteng
2. Regarding the situation with public health facilities’ (a) telephones, (b) computers and/or laptops, (c) access to the internet and/or WiFi and (d) any other information and communications technology infrastructure.

361 PHC Facilities indicated not to have telephones.
20 PHC Facilities indicated not to have computers.
452 PHC Facilities indicated no access to internet connectivity.
All hospitals have Telephones, Computers and Internet Connectivity
3. There are several factors that need to be considered that include the general communication infrastructure of the geography of where facilities are situated to ensure appropriate ICT infrastructure. Provinces reported that where facilities do not have access to fix line telephones they are provided with mobile telephones. The National Department of Health is working with the Department of Communication and Digital Technology through the SA Connect project for the provision of appropriate broadband connectivity at Health Facilities.
4. Because of the complexities involved the full costing of the upgrade of health facilities to appropriate ICT Infrastructure with specific reference to broadband connectivity to enable the digital health transformation, will be completed by September 2024.The estimated amount based on preliminary costing is R 500 million for infrastructure and annual recurring cost of approximately R 7 million.

Lees, Mr RA to ask the Minister of Transport
Whether, given that the Minister of Public Enterprises did not table in Parliament the annual reports for SA Airways (SAA) for the 201920, 202021, 202122 and 202223 financial years, notwithstanding clause 17(6)(e) of the International Air Services Act, Act 60 of 1993, that requires the International Air Services Council to take into account the financial capability of the applicant (details furnished), the SAA currently has a valid international air services license; if not, why not; if so, (a) on what basis was the financial capability of SAA taken into account by the international air services council and (b) what date was the international air services license issued to SAA?
Reply:
a) The Council was satisfied that SAA (Soc) Ltd is fit and able to operate a Class I international air service based on the supporting/financial information submitted.
The IASC is an independent entity established under the International Air Service Council Act No. 60 of 1993, which specifically governs the regulation of air services, specifically international. Council operates within the provisions of the Act, in considering and continuous monitoring of applications and or licensee’s such as SAA.
Under the Act, one of the considerations taken into account is the financial capability of the airline. Financial resources of an airline are considered to be of the factors in determining whether an airline is capable of providing air services in line with regulations. This includes the airline's ability to finance and operate flights, as well as its capacity to maintain and repair aircrafts, provide on-board services and facilities, and meet other operational costs. The Council has utilized both the management accounts and operational plans to assess the capabilities for the airline to operate or continue operating.
In addition to financial capability, other key considerations considered in licensing include the operational ability of the airline. This encompasses various aspects related to the safety and security of passengers, crew members, and the public. This includes the airline's operational standards, their compliance with regulations, and their ability to maintain and enhance the quality and safety of their service delivery.
Another important factor that may be considered is the route utilization of the airline. This refers to whether the airline operates certain routes and the frequency at which they are operated. The IASC, when considering licensing for an airline may review the current routes and the capacity of the airline to operate those routes.
In summary, the IASC considers a range of factors when deciding on the licensing of an airline, including financial capability, operational ability and route utilization, among others.
b) SAA (Soc) Ltd’s last amended licence was last issued on 13 February 2020 and is still valid.

Clarke, Ms M to ask the Minister of Health
(1)Whether he will furnish Mrs M O Clarke with a list of all the critical skills vacancies in each province; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details; (2) (a) by what date will the specified vacancies be filled and (b) what is the total annual cost of each position?
Reply:
The Department of Home Affairs compiles a list of critical skills needed in the country as their reference for approving work permits. The current Home Affairs Critical list as published 2022 includes only Medical and Nursing Specialists for Health services.
The Department of Health provides essential services to the country. This is based on the nature of services being provided. It is imperative to note that ideally the Department of Health wishes to fill all health care worker posts in order to improve the health outcomes of the population.
(1)-(2) Due to current financial constrains that are also affecting human resources budgets, Provinces annually appoint Employment Recruitment Teams lead by Heads of Health Departments or delegated officials at senior positions to develop recruitment plans prioritising the filling of critical posts with a required skills mix to address the burden of diseases at all our levels of care guarding against overspending on provided/available budgets.
Annexure A as attached is provincial submission of prioritised posts per province with envisaged dates to fill the posts and total costs per province. Outstanding province Free is Gauteng.

Tito, Ms LF to ask the Minister of Health
Whether he will furnish Mrs L F Tito with the graft probe report with regard to a security contract in the North West Provincial Department of Health; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details?
Reply:
No, Minister of Health is unable to furnish the Member with the referred report regarding the security contract in the North-West Provincial Department of Health as is not an official document of the Department. It has no legal status as its drafting and processing were never concluded, as such never necessitated the Department to give it consideration whatsoever.

Mhlongo, Ms N to ask the Minister of Health
(a) What is the total number of South African doctors who have trained abroad since 1 January 2020, who are waiting to write the board examination of the Health Professions Council of South Africa (HPCSA) in order to be admitted as doctors in the Republic, (b) by what date will the HPCSA be in a position for the foreign-trained South African doctors to write the board examinations to be admitted as doctors, (c) what is causing the delay and (d) how long has the problem persisted unresolved by his department?
Reply:
According to the Health Professions Council of South Africa (HPCSA):
a) There were 405 foreign-qualified doctors eligible to write the HPCSA Board examination which includes both South Africans as well as foreign nationals. The eligible foreign-qualified doctors were invited to write the HPCSA examinations however only 217 applicants confirmed that they would write the examination.
b) A total of 217 foreign-trained doctors participated in the HPCSA examinations which were written on 25th October 2023.
c) The HPCSA examinations are conducted through medical schools. The HPCSA had embarked on a procurement process before its contract with Sefako Makgatho University had expired. The University of KwaZulu-Natal was successful, however, there were delays in the finalization of the contract between HPCSA and UKZN due to certain administrative requirements not being met by the University. These matters have now been resolved and the contract finalised which then led to the applicants being able to sit for the examination on 25th October 2023.
The National Department of Health is not involved in the contracting process of the HPCSA. HPCSA had previously contracted Sefako Makgatho University and this contract expired in March 2023. The new contract with the University of KwaZulu-Natal was signed in September 2023.

With reference to his reply to question 3081 on 22 September 2023, why (a) were the deceased taken to the Diepkloof Government Mortuary and not to Hillbrow; (b) were families of the deceased charged R700 for the release of bodies from the Diepkloof Mortuary, what (c) is the capacity of (i) Diepkloof Mortuary, (ii) Hillbrow Mortuary and (iii) Roodepoort Mortuary and (d) number of bodies are still at the respective mortuaries as at 1 September 2023?
Reply:
(a) According to the Gauteng Department of Health, bodies were taken to both Hillbrow (Johannesburg) and Diepkloof Forensic mortuaries for the following reasons.

Khawula, Ms MS to ask the Minister of Health
(1)What plans has his department put in place to (a) increase the capacity to carry out caesarean sections and (b) provide the necessary equipment for the specified operations in public hospitals as infants die as a result of the lack of adequate equipment; (2) whether he has found that the lack of equipment and capacity resulting in injuries to women and deaths of infants are challenges for his department in providing quality health care for women in labour and their babies; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, what are the relevant details?
Reply:
1..(a) The National Department of Health has put the following interventions in place to increase the capacity to carry out caesarean sections:
- Department developed various support services to strengthen capacity at lower levels of care. Support services include in/outreach programmes by specialists, use of District Clinical Specialist Teams to address the issues of knowledge and skill to performance of C/Section. Use of family physicians to support midwives in identification of risk factors for women who may require caesarian section to be referred early to next level of care.
- The Provincial Departments implement the continuous drills at facility level to upskill the staff to timeously and efficiently prepare women for caesarian section even in the case of emergency, this is part of the Essential Steps on Management of Obstetric Emergency ( ESMOE) training course.
b) Each health facility conducts an essential equipment audit as described within the Caesarian section guideline (monologue) to determine the equipment deficit status and develop the replacement plans as prescribed by the supply chain management systems.
2. Department conducts an in-depth analysis of the causes of both maternal and neonatal mortality and morbidity which are communicated through the saving mothers and babies report. The latest report (2020-2022) indicate that the key causes of neonatal deaths are prematurity, asphyxia and infections. While the department acknowledges that there are incidences of human resource and equipment shortages, they are not documented as causes of neonatal deaths in public health facilities.

Ngcobo, Mr SL to ask the Minister of Basic Education
What are the findings of the investigation that was conducted by her department into allegations of cheating in the National Senior Certificate examinations which involved 1 189 pupils from six provinces?
Reply:
Learners in these cases have been found guilty of engaging in irregular practices to obtain an unfair advantage during the writing of the examination and they have been sanctioned for a maximum period and are prohibited from writing the next three examinations. They will only be allowed to write the November 2024 examination, once the sanction period has expired.
The learners at these schools either colluded with each other or were supported by their teachers in obtaining answers to certain questions in the question paper while the examination was in progress. The Department of Basic Education (DBE) in conjunction with the Provincial Education Department (PED), conducted an extensive investigation of all learners that were alleged to be implicated in this irregular practice and this included a detailed investigative analysis of the learner’s scripts. Based on the findings from the investigation, every implicated learner was given an opportunity to present their version of events to an independent presiding officer, in the presence of their parents/guardian or supported by a legal representative. The decision of the independent presiding officer was presented to the Provincial Examinations Irregularities Committee (PEIC), a committee appointed by the Head of Department to ensure that due process is followed in the management of all the irregularities. The recommendations from the PEIC were then reviewed by the National Examinations Irregularities Committee (NEIC), a committee established by the Minister to ensure fairness and uniformity in the handling of these irregularities across all the PEDs. The final decision relating to these candidates was presented to Umalusi, the Quality Assurance Council, for ratification.
It needs to be noted that candidates were found guilty in specific subjects, where there was evidence of wrongdoing. The results in those subjects were declared null and void and the candidates received the results of subjects that were not tarnished by any examination irregularity.

De Freitas, Mr MS to ask the Minister of Home Affairs
With reference to his reply to question 2018 on 28 June 2023, what (a) steps have been taken to improve the average turn-around time and (b)(i) processes, (ii) procedures, (iii) milestones and (iv) deadlines are being put in place to assist and facilitate applicants who have incomplete and/or incorrectly completed applications?
Reply:
a) The Department has instituted weekly management meetings chaired by the Director-General. The purpose of the meeting is to monitor performance on the turnaround times for targets that are at risk of not being achieved. The Acting Deputy Director-General: Immigration Services also has weekly performance monitoring meetings with the management of Permitting where a status report is tabled on the progress being made against the visa and permits backlog.
(b)(i-iii) The department has developed a backlog eradication plan which aims to have the backlogs cleared. The plan aims to move the older Temporary Residency Visas applications from 2022 concurrently with the current applications of 2023. This will be done by splitting the temporary residence visa team into two. The same approach is being implemented for Permanent Residence Permits. The plan includes the utilisation of current capacity in the Immigration Branch supported by the additional officials from other branches including those in Provinces. It also includes those officials who have returned from the Foreign Missions after serving their four-year deployment term. Other options to supplement existing capacity and resources are also being looked at and may be implemented should it be deemed necessary to do so to support the eradication plan. The Department is also reviewing the immigration permitting delegations as well as Standard Operating Procedures (SOP’s). The department envisages to have cleared the backlog by June 2024 for all categories of visas.
(b)(iv) With regards to incomplete or incorrectly completed applications, Immigration Regulation 9 prescribes that an application for any visa referred to in section 11 up to and including sections 20 and 22 of the Act shall be made together with all supporting documents. Once an application is received at Home Affairs it is processed with the documents that were submitted by the applicant. The Department is therefore unable to assist applicants with incomplete documents once an application has been received at the adjudication hub. A checklist available at the time of applications is one tool that assists and guides applicants to submit all required documents.

Makamba-Botya, Ms N to ask the Minister of Higher Education, Science and Innovation
Following his visit to Japan, what (a) actual tangible plans are in place to build a hydrogen economy in the Republic and (b) steps will he take to ensure that a hydrogen economy is built in the Republic?
Reply:
The Minister participated in hydrogen economy-related ministerial engagements from 25 to 27 September 2023 that were held in Tokyo, Japan, to profile the work of the Department of Science and Innovation (DSI) as well as promote collaboration, investment, and innovation in support of the deployment of hydrogen at scale, which is essential for the successful implementation of the National Hydrogen Society Roadmap (HSRM).
(a) Subsequent to the Ministerial Visit to Japan, the following plans are in place to build a hydrogen economy in the Republic:
1. Energy Sector Support Programmes
In support of the energy sector, the DSI will continue to support the following energy research, development and innovation (RDI) programmes with academic institutions and corporate partners:
- Hydrogen South Africa (University of Cape Town, Mintek, North-West University, Council for Industrial Research, University of the Western Cape, Anglo American, Impala Platinum, Bambili (SMME), etc.);
- Platinum Valley Project (Anglo American Platinum, Engie and Bambili);
- Green Ammonia project (Sasol); and
- Carbon Capture and Use (PPC Cement, EPCM (SMME)).
2. Design of Appropriate Operating Models
The DSI has initiated engagements with private sector and international partners to design appropriate operating models that will ensure better coordination and partnerships for the effective implementation of the Hydrogen Society Roadmap.
(b) The following steps will be taken to ensure that a hydrogen economy is built in the Republic:
1. Strengthen Current Existing Strategic Partnerships
The DSI will continue to explore ways to strengthen the following current existing strategic partnerships through active participation in related platforms:
- International Partnership for Hydrogen and Fuel Cells in the Economy (IPHE). South Africa is the current Chair of the IPHE and aims to use its tenure to encourage more African countries to join IPHE;
- International Energy Agency;
- United Nations Industrial Development Organization;
- Hydrogen Council (private sector-led); and
- African Hydrogen Alliance (Egypt, Kenya, Mauritania, Morocco, Namibia and South Africa).
2. Opportunities for Partnerships
The DSI will continue to seek partnerships with both the public and private sector in:
- Testing and validation of the technology through field trials;
- Further development and optimisation of the technology;
- Developing a supply chain that supports the deployment of technology;
- Supporting skills development through internships (universities & TVETs) to support technology deployment;
- Training the end users of the technologies through local municipalities;
- Stimulating local demand for emerging technologies to power social and economic infrastructure; and
- Facilitating the establishment of manufacturing facilities in the country that allow for the integration of locally developed intellectual property and inbound technology where appropriate.

Schreiber, Dr LA to ask the Minister of Agriculture, Land Reform and Rural Development
With reference to the reply by the Minister of Public Works and Infrastructure to question 2672 on 22 September 2023, what are the relevant details of her department’s plans to address the status of the committee assigned to clarify and designate ownership of Farm 1331 in Pniel, which initially started in 1991 but stalled due to the passing of the chairperson of the land committee; (2) whether the committee is defunct; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, (3) whether she will undertake to get the process moving again by constituting a new committee to resolve the issue and to ensure that the rightful owners of Farm 1331 are able to assume ownership and turn the land into productive use; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details?
Reply:
(1) The Committee referred to was appointed by the Minister of Public Works in terms of the Land Titles Adjustments Act, 1979 (Act No. 68 of 1979) which has since been repealed and replaced with the Land Titles Adjustments Act, 1993 (Act No. 111 of 1993). In terms of the latter Act, the Minister of Agriculture, Land Reform and Rural Development may appoint a title adjustment commissioner in respect of one or more pieces of designated land to deal with the land in accordance with the provisions of Act 111 of 1993. The Minister of Agriculture, Land Reform and Rural Development has no obligation to address the status of the committee established by the Minister of Public Works in terms of the now repealed Act.

Komane, Ms RN to ask the Minister of Public Service and Administration
With reference to the report presented by the Auditor-General of South Africa before the Portfolio Committee on Public Service and Administration, where it was mentioned that her department still has not met the representation target of 35% for women and youth, yet the Republic has many qualified young persons and women who are unemployed, what (a) is the representation of women and youth in her department, (b) are the reasons that her department has not met the representation target and (c) time frames have been set for her department to meet the target?
Reply:
a) The representation of:
(i) SMS women in the department:
-As at 31 March 2023, the representation of women at SMS level in the department was 47,14% of SMS members, which is 2,86% less than the set national target of 50%.
-As at 30 September 2023, the representation of women at SMS level in the department was 52,90% of SMS members, which is 2,90% more than the set national target of 50%.
(ii) Youth in the department:
-As at 31 March 2023: Youth comprised of 16,45% of staff, which is 13,55% less than the set national target of 30%.
-As at 30 September 2023: Youth comprised of 15,48% of staff, which is 14,52% less than the set national target of 30%.
b) The reasons that the department has not met the representation target:
(i) SMS women in the department:
As there were no recruitment processes for SMS posts that were at the interview and nomination stages during the 4th quarter of the 2022/2023 performance cycle, no SMS posts were filled.
(ii) Youth in the department:
Youth is not a designated group in terms of the Employment Equity Act, act no 55 of 1998, as a result the department cannot put in place Affirmative Action Measures to promote the employment of youth as a targeted group as has been done with the appointment of Women into SMS posts.
(c) Time frames set for the department to meet the target
(i) SMS women in the department:
The target of 50% SMS women has been reached.
(ii) Youth in the department:
The department will continue to monitor youth representation as vacant posts are filled. A sustainable solution to the youth issue is a review of structure and creation of technical / operational posts in the structure and this is something being considered for the next term.

Mathulelwa, Ms B to ask the Minister of Small Business Development
What (a) total number of rural cooperatives has her department supported in each province over the past five financial years and (b) are the reasons that her department seems to be reluctant to fund cooperatives in the country?”
Reply:
I have been advised that:
a) The following is an account of the interventions by the Department of Small Business Development (DSBD):
Trainings and workshops were provided in rural areas to 109 and 323 in the financial years 2023/24 (quarter 1) and 2022/23 respectively to co-operatives as part of non-financial support. The workshops focused on awareness campaign on the Co-operatives Development Support Programme (CDSP) and training on cooperative governance.
In order to popularise the CSDP, the Directorate plans to organise/facilitate/host a number of awareness /outreach campaigns across the nine provinces of the country. These campaigns also provide a platform for other stakeholders to make presentations on their product offerings, contributing to non-financial support. The table (attached as Annexure A) illustrates number of co-operatives attended presentation per province.
The implementation of amended CDSP guideline by the Small Enterprise Development Agency (Seda) increase financial support of co-operatives. With implementation gaining momentum, indeed more resources will be invested.
b) The DSBD, together with its agencies, Seda and the Small Enterprise Finance Agency (sefa), seek to assist co-operatives enterprises financially and non-financially. Seda, moving forward will be the lead Department for the implementation of CSDP, a financial support programme of the DSBD with an objective to support co-operative enterprises. Before CDSP was implemented through the agency, there was a Co-operative Incentive Scheme (CIS) that was managed at the Departmental and the approach was 90/10 to 100% grant then. Currently CDSP is administered by sefa as a blended finance of 70% (Grant) and 30% (Loan) for the past two financial years (2020/21 and 2021/22 financial years). To date no disbursement has been made due to sefa application process and requirements e.g., verification of members credit records, FICA documents etc.
In partnership with Seda, the CDSP programme to offer support to various categories to eligible co-operatives. Currently funding is limited to R2,500,000 (across the various categories). CDSP guideline has since been amended and the following are the proposed funding components to the various categories:
- Category A: Start-up Co-operatives: Maximum funding of R1 500 000 per applicant.
- Category B: Expansion Co-operatives: Maximum funding of R2 500 000 per applicant.
- Category C: Secondary/Cluster Co-operatives: R5 000 000 per applicant.
The implementation of amended CDSP guideline by Seda increase financial support of co-operatives. With implementation gaining momentum, indeed more resources will be invested.

Cachalia, Mr G K to ask the Minister in The Presidency for Electricity
(1) In light of his comments that the Republic could potentially face a grid collapse if efforts are not directed towards developing Eskom’s transmission capacity (details furnished), what is the scope of the planned upgrades to the transmission grid infrastructure, in terms of potential new grid network distribution; (2) with reference to the conservative estimates that show that the country needs to invest close to R254 billion in new grid capacity, what investment instruments and/or vehicles has the Government put in place to incentivise private sector participation in grid expansion? NW4268E
Reply:
1. According to regulatory requirements, Eskom Transmission publishes a Transmission Development Plan (TDP) every year, looking 10 years ahead. It identifies infrastructure required to (i) keep abreast of load growth, (ii) comply with reliability/redundancy requirements, (iii) meet new generation integration requirements, and (iv) replace assets that are at end of life.
In the TDP2022, Eskom identified 1 009 projects requiring development and execution. This comprises 207 expansion category projects and 802 refurbishment projects over this period. The identified scope in TDP2022 broadly involves building 14,218 km of powerlines and 122,669 MVA of transformation.
This infrastructure will be built in all provinces around the country, with the bulk being in provinces such as the Northern Cape, that have the greatest potential for renewable energy power plants
2. It is estimated that more than R390 billion will be required over the next decade to meet the demand for grid capacity, largely due to the increase in generation capacity through renewable energy projects following the various Bid Windows. Eskom’s current financial position places significant limitations on its ability to attract sufficient capital towards expanding the transmission grid, with the delivery of transmission infrastructure taking, on average, between 7 to 10 years. It is estimated this delivery rate needs to be scaled-up by eight times to connect the energy generation required for energy security by 2030.
It is anticipated that the transmission grid build rate needs to increase from 300km to 2300km per year with a greater rate of investment and delivery required through to 2050 (Centre for Sustainability Transitions, 2023).
The Ministry in the Presidency for Electricity co-hosted a Transmission Financing Seminar with the Johannesburg Stock Exchange and is currently finalising a cabinet submission on transmission financing pathways aimed at fast-tracking transmission infrastructure investments to support the anticipated growth in generation capacity and secure long-term energy security.

Kruger, Mr HC to ask the Minister of Small Business Development
Whether, in light of the Auditor-General’s 2020/2021 report revealing that 84% of municipalities fail to adhere to the standard 30-day payment guideline which puts immense financial strain on small companies, sole proprietors and cooperatives, her department has undertaken an in-depth analysis of the potential job losses and economic dislocation, the failure could engender within the specified economic units; if not, why not; if so, what (a) are the pertinent details of the findings and (b) plans does her department have to support these entities, considering the cash flow difficulties they face due to late payments from municipalities?”
Reply:
I have been advised that:
a) The Department of Small Business Development (DSBD) has not undertaken an in-depth analysis of the potential job losses and economic dislocations caused by the failure of municipalities to pay service providers within the prescribed 30 days payment period.
However, the Department has prioritised the research and investigations to assess a broader structural impediment faced by Small, Medium and Micro Enterprises (SMMEs) and Co-operatives relating to:
- Access to finance.
- Non-financial support from Government and Private sector.
- Legal impediments to SMME and Co-operatives development; and
- Access to Markets.
In addition to the above and emanating from an investigation into regulatory impediment affecting SMMEs, DSBD is to engage with National Treasury on improving monitoring, reporting, enforcement and consequence management. National Treasury has set up an email, [email protected] for service providers to register complaints payments older than 30 days. DSBD is to increase awareness of this platform to SMMEs through its Red Tape Reduction Programme at the Provincial and Municipality levels. DSBD further intends to investigate the possibility of expanding the current Innovation Bridge Portal project to include a platform for registration of complaints on adherence to the 30-day payment period commitment of Government to SMMEs.
The Department has recently introduced the National Small Enterprise Amendment Bill to Parliament, which is currently out for Public Hearings, this Bill aims to remedy the lack of effective and affordable access to a justice mechanism for small enterprises in instances of business to business disputes or non-payment of enterprises on time. The establishment of an Ombud Service will bring justice in this instance for SMMEs without them incurring costs.
b) These are part of a holistic Research Agenda for the 3-year cycle (2023/2026) to advance the development, job creation and job preservation for those SMMEs and Co-operatives that are still battling under the current economic strains and loadshedding. It is expected that two (2) studies, (1) Sector Specific support: challenges and opportunities and (2) Market Access: Demand for Goods and services post Covid-19, will be completed by the end of the 2023/2024 financial year. These will provide the Department with the basis for evidence driven interventions to support SMMEs and Co-operatives.
The work on Red Tape Reduction with the Provincial and Local governments ongoing with Provincial Task Teams set in place to raise awareness on the Red Tape Reduction commitment made by the President to improve the operating environment of Government and its stakeholders. It is expected that these interventions and investigations will provide the Department with leverage to engage municipalities to address the issues of non-payment and other non-financial impediments faced by SMMEs and Co-operatives.

Graham, Ms SJ to ask the Minister in The Presidency for Electricity
(1) What (a) is the projected total cost of the temporary repairs to the flue ducts of the Kusile Power Station to get Units 1, 2 and 3 online and (b) effect will the temporary repairs have on emissions from the specified units; (2) Whether Eskom has received a waiver on the emissions in terms of the commitment to the reduction of sulphur dioxide emissions; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details; (3) What is the projected cost (a) to address the design defect at Kusile Power Station and (b) for permanent repairs to the flue ducts to ensure optimal usage of the gas desulphurisation plant? NW4284E
Reply:
(1)(a) The projected cost for the temporary stacks is estimated at R700 million excluding the operating and maintenance costs.
b) The construction of the temporary stacks for Units 1, 2 and 3 means that the flue gas from these units will not go through the flue gas desulphurisation plants, which reduces Sulphur dioxide levels. The Sulphur dioxide emissions from the temporary stack will thus be higher than would have been the usual case for these units.
The temporary stacks are built after the fabric filter plants and main boilers. As such, the particulate matter and nitrogen oxide levels of the units with the temporary stacks are no different from what they would have been in normal operations.
(2) To operate the temporary stacks with the higher than usual Sulphur dioxide levels, Eskom applied to the Department of Forestry, Fisheries and Environment (DFFE) for a postponement from the Minimum Emissions Standards (MES) published in terms of the National Environmental Management Air Quality Act (NEMAQA). Eskom received a postponement decision from the DFFE
on 5 June 2023. The Nkangala District Municipality issued a revised Atmospheric Emission Licence (AEL) reflecting the postponement on 13 June 2023. The applicable AEL limits for the temporary stacks are thus: particulate matter – 50 mg/Nm3, nitrogen oxide – 750 mg/Nm3 and Sulphur dioxide – 3500 mg/Nm3 (all measured at a 24-hour daily average)
Four parties appealed the MES decision, and three appealed the AEL decision. The Minister ruled on the MES appeals on 26 September 2023, allowing Eskom to proceed subject to three revised conditions. The District Municipality ruled on the AEL appeals on 28 September 2023, accepting the Minister's decision and allowing the project to proceed.
A key consideration in the process was that Eskom must ensure that the operation of the temporary stacks did not result in any health impacts on surrounding communities. The authorities approved Eskom’s plan to monitor and mitigate air quality impacts from Kusile on 18 September 2023. Eskom is implementing the approved plan.
(3) (a) There is no design defect associated with the existing West Chimney failure. The duct failure occurred due to overloading of the chimney flues and inlet duct. The repair is to restore the chimney to its original condition or as close as possible.
b) The projected cost for repairing the West Chimney will only be known once the stabilisation of the flues has been achieved.

Mhlongo, Mr TW to ask the Minister of Sport, Arts and Culture
(1). Who is collecting royalties due to (a) artists, (b) writers, (c) record labels and (d) publishers in the Republic. (2). whether his department has been informed that collecting societies, each dealing with various music rights namely the (a) Recording Industry of South Africa Audio Visual (RISA RAV) for music, videos and labels, (b) Composers, Authors and Publishers Association (CAPASSO) and (c) SA Music Performance Rights Association (SAMPRA) on behalf of record labels and performers, had the cash holdings available for distribution to members in the 1999-00 financial year up to and including the current financial year; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, what are the relevant details; (3). whether he held a meeting with the executives of RISA RAV, CAPASSO, SAMPRA and the Southern African Music Rights Organisation since his appointment as the Minister; if not, why not; if so, (a) on what date and (b) what did they discuss?
Reply:
1. We have several Collective Management Organisations (CMOs) in South Africa, and all were established to represent their members on matters of management of their rights. The names of these CMOs are.
-
- South African Music Rights Organisation (SAMRO), which collects royalties on behalf of composers and authors (music creators).
- South African Music Performance Rights Association (SAMPRA) – collecting needle time royalties on behalf of recording artists and record labels.
- Recording Industry of South Africa (RISA) - collecting royalties for Audio Visual (RAV).
- Dramatic, Artistic and Literary Rights Organisation (DALRO) – responsible for licensing the use of published dramatic, artistic, and literary copyrighted works and distributing royalties.
- Composers, Authors, and Publishers Association (CAPASSO) – collecting mechanical rights on behalf of composers, authors, and music publishers.
- Association of Independent Record Companies (AIRCO) - collecting royalties for Audio Visual (RAV) on behalf of independent record companies; and
- Independent Music Performance Rights Association (IMPRA) – collecting needle time royalties for performers and independent record labels.
2. We do not have records or any information regarding cash holdings available for distribution to members that was made from the 1999 fiscal year up to and including the current fiscal year. You will appreciate that these organisations are independent structures reporting and/or accountable to their members in the main. Only two of these structures (SAMPRA and IMPRA) are required by the law to also account for the Companies and Intellectual Property Commission (CIPC) which is under the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Competition. The current developments relating to the copyright amendment are proposing that all CMOs be accredited by the CIPC, and this process will allow all CMOs to account for the CIPC. We trust that this progressive Bill will be signed into law very soon.
Having said that, the customary practice is that unclaimed funds would normally be transferred into a separate account for a certain period normally for two or three years while searching for the rightful owners. The practice of holding undistributed money in a separate account until rightful owners come forward is a common global practice. If unclaimed, it is reallocated for distribution. The approach is designed to ensure that funds are safeguarded, and rightful recipients can claim what is owed to them. To simplify this, the approach is like the system adopted by the National Lottery, which is known for its transparent and fair distribution of unclaimed funds. In this regard, CMO organisations
can maintain accountability and avoid any misallocation or misuse of these resources. The system also provides a safety net for individuals or entities who may have overlooked or not yet claimed their entitlements.
3. Since taking office, I have engaged with various stakeholders, but notably, this has not extended to CMOs. The reason for this includes factors like the need for prioritisation of the stakeholder meetings given the demands on the ground and the fact that the government is already busy providing a comprehensive approach that will deal with royalty collection and distribution by amending the Copyright Act, a matter that has been welcomed by these CMOs and their respective members. Nevertheless, I acknowledge the importance of dialogues with CMOs and remain open to future engagements especially when unattended matters surface.

Hlengwa, Mr M to ask the Minister of International Relations and Cooperation
In light of the current dramatic escalation in tension and the fact that the Republic no longer has an embassy in Israel, what are the full relevant details of how the Government provides support to South Africans in Israel who wish to return home?
Reply:
The South African Embassies in Tel Aviv (Israel) and Ramallah (Palestine) and the Consular Services at Head Office (DIRCO) are hard at work monitoring, collecting information and liaising with South African nationals who might be in distress and in need of consular services.
Since the conflict broke out on 7 October 2023, 120 South Africans in Israel and Palestine have contacted the respective SA Missions to inform them of their presence and expressing their needs. Several South African nationals had encountered problems flying out of Tel Aviv because of the interruption of air services after rockets were fired from Gaza into Israel last weekend. Distressed South African nationals in Gaza are on the United Nations (UN) rescue list and ready to be moved out of Gaza when the opportunity arises.

Mathulelwa, Ms B to ask the Minister of Small Business Development
What (a) has she found to have been the lessons her department has learnt from the COVID-19 period in terms of the role it should play in supporting informal traders in township and rural areas and (b) interventions has her department made to ensure that it would be in a better position to assist informal traders during a natural disaster?’’
Reply:
I have been advised that;
aThe key lessons learnt by the Department Small Business Development (DSBD) from the COVID-19 period in terms of its role in supporting informal businesses located in townships and rural areas can be categorised according to the needs of these businesses as short-term and long-term needs.
Short-term needs relate to the support that was required by informal businesses to recover from the impact of the COVID–19 pandemic and related lockdown measures which are:
- Financial support – more than half of informal business owners indicated that they were in need of financial support just to be able to remain in business.
- Support with marketing and customer acquisition – a large number of informal businesses sought ways to market their businesses and to increase their customer base under the prevailing circumstances.
- Help to comply with hygiene standards – many of the businesses were looking for ways to keep their businesses safe and hygienic and to comply with the COVID-19 regulations.
- Mentoring and training – some of the informal businesses that received support also requested to receive ongoing mentoring and further training.
Formal businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic were more likely to receive support from Government programmes while entrepreneurs in the informal economy relied mainly on Social Grants. Long-term needs indicated to us as the DSBD that the COVID-19 pandemic has opened multiple opportunities to strengthen informal and micro businesses in the long term in the following areas:
- Use of digital channels and technology – many informal businesses see potential in the use of social media for marketing but the high cost of data remains the leading obstacle.
- Collaboration with peers and more established organisations – many would like to sell products or services to more established businesses while others feel they will benefit from introductions and advice on how to work with them.
- Transitioning from the informal to the formal economy – many would register their informal businesses if it helped them to access funding and grow their customer base.
- Improve overall infrastructure and create an enabling environment – a number of informal businesses reported poor access to basic infrastructure while others reported challenges with authorities around places where they operate their informal businesses.
b) The COVID-19 pandemic has opened multiple opportunities to strengthen informal businesses in the long run. The Department continues to address the lessons learnt through its current programmes and by developing appropriate responsive interventions within the Small Business Development Portfolio (DSBD, Small Enterprise Development Agency and Small Enterprise Finance Agency) and through partnerships.
- The Department of Small Business Development designated the informal business sector as a significant contributor to the country’s gross domestic product (GDP), employment creation, sustainable livelihoods and local economic development in the country. The National Informal Business Upliftment Strategy (NIBUS) was developed as a responsive strategy to this position. The Strategy is aimed at supporting informal businesses, which are mostly based in township and rural areas, to ensure that they become part of the economic mainstream of the country and to receive all the necessary support to ensure their growth and well-being.
- The Informal and Micro Enterprise Development Programme (IMEDP), Shared Economic Infrastructure Facility (SEIF), Township and Rural Entrepreneurship Programme (TREP) and others are instruments of the Department that were developed as part of the Strategy continue to play a role in dealing with current challenges faced by informal businesses and in achieving the objectives of government where support to informal businesses is being prioritised. The instruments of the DSBD together with its programmatic interventions as implemented by the DSBD and its entities, Seda (non-financial support) and sefa (financial support) will continue to be positioned and used as interventions to ensure that the DSBD will always be in a position to assist informal businesses during natural disasters and at all other times.

Graham, Ms SJ to ask the Minister in The Presidency for Electricity
1) With reference to maintenance of electricity infrastructure, (a) on what date was (i) the maintenance philosophy model adopted by Eskom and (ii) was the model implemented and (b) how does the maintenance philosophy model differ from a planned maintenance model; (2) Whether the specified model has been adopted by and implemented at all power stations and across all electricity infrastructure in the Republic; if not, (a) why not and (b) on what date will it be implemented; if so, (3) Whether the model is being adhered to and implemented effectively; if not, what measures have been taken to ensure adherence and implementation; if so, what are the relevant details? NW4286E
Reply:
(1)(a) (i), (ii), (b) At the concept phase for each new power station, the maintenance requirements for each system and component are received from the Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs). These are adapted by Eskom to take Eskom-specific and environmental factors into account.
This results in a philosophy maintenance regime, which is implemented as the plant becomes operational, and which determines the required periodicity and scope of the various maintenance activities and outages. Thus, philosophy maintenance refers to these specified required maintenance activities while planned maintenance refers to all maintenance that meets the requirements to be considered as planned – typically 28 days’ notice – and includes all philosophy maintenance.
(2) All power stations have their own maintenance philosophy which is effective on commercial operations throughout the life of the plant.
(3) As part of continuous improvement, Eskom has adopted liability-based maintenance which also assists in managing the plant based on risk. This allows Eskom to better manage the plant risk based on the available funds to execute maintenance.

Ngcobo, Mr SL to ask the Minister of Employment and Labour
Whether his department has any records of the total number of government officials who are involved in labour dispute matters such as suspensions and dismissals; if not, why not; if so, what is the breakdown of the total number in terms of (a) each department and (b) in each province?
Reply:
Hon. Ngcobo, there is a Department that is known as Department of Public Service and Administration (DPSA). It is the DPSA that may have the information that you are looking for. Information on all Government officials and all the departmets are collected and collated by the DPSA. My genuine and sincere advice is that kindly consider asking this question to DPSA.

Myburgh, Mr NG to ask the Minister of Water and Sanitation
What total number of water treatment and/or purification plants in the Republic are (a) fully compliant with all applicable legislation and (b) totally dysfunctional?
Reply:
The Department has conducted the Blue Drop audit/assessment in 2022/2023 and is currently in the process of finalising the Blue Drop report. The full Blue Drop report will be released by mid-November 2023. The assessments covered all 140 municipalities, and bulk water service providers.
The Blue Drop Watch interim report was released in June 2023 to keep the public and stakeholders informed on the current status of drinking water, and to provide the regulator with information to enact the appropriate enforcement and rectification interventions. The Blue Drop Watch Report focuses on the current condition of drinking water infrastructure and treatment processes from a technical perspective. This report gives an overview of the field work and technical assessments by Blue Drop inspectors during the period November 2022 to February 2023.
There are nine hundred thirty-five (935) water treatment works registered on the departmental system called Integrated Regulatory Information System (IRIS). During the Blue Drop Watch Report audit, 151 water supply systems were inspected {Technical Site Assessment (TSA)} as a representative overview of water supply systems.
The TSA has established that there were five (5) water supply systems found to be in a critical state of performance. The affected water services institutions where five (5) water supply systems were identified to be critical, were requested to submit corrective action plans.
a) Fifty-Four Water Supply Systems were found to have excellent or good states of performance (%TSA >80%) from the 151 inspected as indicated as Annexure A
b) Five Water Supply Systems were found at critical states of performance (%TSA <30%) from 151 inspected as indicated as Annexure B

Ismail, Ms H to ask the Minister of Tourism
Whether her department has put measures in place to enhance fiscal responsibility to prevent underspending of its budget, as was the case in the 2022-23 financial year; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details?

I have been informed that the department has put measures in place to ensure that the allocated budget for the current financial year is spent. The Top Management structure interrogates branch reports every month in line with the set targets and cash flow projections. The expenditure on compensation of employees is dependent on the approval of the filling of posts by the relevant structures. The directive on the implementation of control measures when creating and filling vacant posts, issued by the Minister for the Public Service and Administration, and the cost containment guidelines issued by the National Treasury should be complied with when filling vacant positions.
In line with the spirit of the National Treasury guidelines on cost containment, where savings are realised based on efficiencies, such should not be considered to be under expenditure but saving to be surrendered to National Treasury.

Whether her department has undertaken a comprehensive assessment to determine the extent of the impact of the ongoing electricity blackouts on the tourism sector of the Republic, including the impact on visitor numbers, revenue losses and the potential long-term damage caused to the global reputation of the Republic as an attractive tourism destination; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, what are the relevant details?

I have been informed that the Department of Tourism has not conducted a comprehensive study on load shedding’s impact on tourism.
SA Tourism’s Departure Survey indicates the following:
- Tourists experienced the regrettable cancellation of anticipated activities.
- Interruptions in internet connectivity posed challenges, hindering communication with family, friends, or professional contacts.
- Several tourists reported inconvenience when the heating and cooling systems in their accommodations became inoperative.
- Dining experiences were prolonged due to power-related disturbances in restaurants.
- Our transportation infrastructure also faced issues; traffic congestion occurred as a result of malfunctioning traffic signals.
- Such disruptions frequently led to delays, compelling tourists to either forego scheduled activities or encounter difficulties in punctual arrivals at their destinations.
It is for this reason amongst others that the Department implements the Green Tourism Incentive Programme (GTIP) under its Tourism Incentive programme (TIP)

Whether she has found that the accommodation grading programme of the Tourism Grading Council of South Africa is contributing towards the transformation and elevation of tourism establishments, particularly in villages, townships and small dorpies; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details?
Reply:
I have been informed that the Tourism Grading Council has contributed to the transformation and elevation of tourism establishments, particularly villages, townships and small dorpies (VTSD) products.
Tourism Grading Council of South Africa (TGCSA) plays a crucial role in ensuring the quality and standardisation of various accommodation products in South Africa. By quality assuring VTSD products, TGCSA helps these offerings meet globally benchmarked grading criteria. This not only ensures that the standards of South African accommodation products are on par with global counterparts but also helps in maintaining a comprehensive and legal accommodation database in the country.
Legal entities are accountable and can be regulated, which contributes to the overall safety and reliability of the tourism industry in South Africa.
This rigorous grading and quality assurance process does not only benefit the businesses directly involved but also bolsters the reputation of South Africa's tourism sector on the global stage. Providing visitors with reliable, high-quality accommodations enhances their overall experience and encourages positive word-of-mouth, further promoting tourism in the region.

The following is how TGCSA is contributing to VTSD products as a Quality Assurance entity:
The Basic Quality Verification Programme
- The Basic Quality Verification (BQV) grading system developed by TGCSA, is a commendable initiative aimed at enhancing accommodation and event products, especially in the VTSD sector in South Africa.
The Tourism Grading Council of South Africa piloted the Basic Quality Verification (BQV) programme in the Eastern Cape in 2020/2021.
The programme seeks to provides structured approach that will build confidence in many accommodation products especially those in rural areas.
This system provides a structured approach to ensuring quality, health, and safety standards in remote rural areas. By establishing clear criteria and guidelines, the BQV grading system enables tourism products, which might not meet the core requirements for formal grading initially, to access trade within the tourism sector.
Through the BQV programme 29 unemployed graduates were recruited and trained as the Basic Quality Verification Evaluators who are responsible for applying the Basic Quality Verification criteria which is used for assessment of establishments that do not meet the minimum entry requirements of formal grading. A total of sixty-five (65) products have been evaluated in the following districts have been completed: eThekwini Municipality, Ugu, iLembe and King Cetshwayo. The team is currently preparing for evaluations in uMgungundlovu, Harry Gwala and uMzinyathi District Municipalities, outstanding evaluations are at Zululand, uMkhanyakude, uThukela, uMzinyathi, and Amajuba.
