Alberts, Mr ADW to ask the Minister of Justice and Correctional Services
(1)On what authority and/or competence and/or legal grounds does the Chief Justice rely in his decision to have English used as the only official language or record in the courts, as was announced on 29 September 2017; (2) whether the Chief Justice consulted him before the specified decision was taken; if not, why was he not consulted; if so, what are the relevant details; (3) what are the correct legal grounds on which such decision is taken; (4) whether the Chief Justice informed his department of the specified decision before is was made public; if not, why not; if so, (a) on what date and (b) where can a copy of the communication be accessed; (5) whether the decision was published in the Government Gazette in accordance with section 8(5)(b) of the Superior Courts Act, Act 10 of 2013; if not, why was this not deemed necessary; if so, in which Government Gazette was it published?
Reply:
1. Section 8 of the Superior Courts Act, 2013 (Act No. 10 of 2013) accords the Chief Justice certain powers with regard to the performance of judicial functions, and these powers flow directly from the constitutional reforms brought about by the Constitution Seventeenth Amendment passed by this august House in 2012 section 165(6) of which provides, and I quote:
“165(6) The Chief Justice is the head of the judiciary and exercises responsibility over the establishment and monitoring of norms and standards for the exercise of the judicial functions of all courts.” (Close quote)
In exercising the powers conferred under the Constitution the Chief Justice is authorised by section 8 of the Superior Courts Act to issue written protocols or directives, or give guidance or advice, to judicial officers, among others, regarding any matter affecting the dignity, accessibility, effectiveness, efficiency or functioning of the courts.
The issue of language is not only an emotive have regard to our history where English and Afrikaans were the only languages that enjoyed official recognition and status, but is also an access issue which I believe would fall under the ambit of section 8 of the Superior Courts Act.
2. The Chief Justice informed me of the decision of the Heads of Court regarding this matter during my meeting with Heads of Court which was held on the same day that the Chief Justice made a public pronouncement on the matter, namely, 29 September 2017.
3. The Constitution is very clear on the matter of languages. Not only does 6 gives accords equal status to all official languages, but also enjoins the Pan South African Language Board (PANSALB) in particular to take measures to promote the development of our indigenous African languages.
It is important to put the pronouncement by the Chief Justice in the proper context. This pronouncement does not imply that Afrikaans and other languages will disappear from the courts’ radar. Any person is free to present his or her case in any of official language that he or she understand in which case interpretation is provided if the language happens to be any language other than English. What is conveyed is that the transcript of the record will, for practical reasons be in English.
4. As I have already indicated, the pronouncement of the decision of the Heads of Court was made at the meetings of Heads of Court and the Judicial Service Commission of September and October respectively. The Chief Justice is not required to inform the Department of such decisions.
5. From our records the decision or directive pertaining to the issue has not been published in the Government Gazette. I am aware that there are discussions underway regarding the implementation of the decision at the various courts. I am aware, for example of the directive issued by Judge President Hlophe of the Western Cape Division which I believe is a subject of discussion at the Provincial Efficiency Enhancement Committee convened by the Judge President of Division in a province. These on-going discussion relate to the capacity to implement the decision. If this is a kind of decision or directive that must be published in the Gazette it would be ideal to do so after careful consideration and taking into account the capacity of our interpretation services.

America, Mr D to ask the Minister of Higher Education and Training
With regard to the Cape Peninsula University of Technology (CPUT) and the ongoing protests taking place at the specified institution, (a) what is the total number of students who have been awarded funding by the National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) but have not yet received their funding for 2017 and (b) of these students, what is the total number that has not received the funding due to (i) not having had Loan Agreement Forms (LAF) generated by NSFAS, (ii) not having signed the LAF that has been generated by NSFAS and/or (iii) another administrative error; (2) did the student representative council transport students to the NSFAS offices to sign their LAFs in person due to an administrative error by NSFAS in the online process; if so, what steps has NSFAS taken to fix the problem; (3) (a) what number of students have not received NSFAS allowances for food since 30 August 2017 and (b) what measures will her department take to urgently address the administrative failures of NSFAS?
Reply:
The National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) has provided the following responses to the questions posed.
1. (a) As at 15 December 2017, NSFAS reported that 7 713 students registered at the Cape Peninsula University of Technology (CPUT) had been awarded funding and 2 169 of these students had not received payments.
(b) (i) 52 Students’ LAFSOPs (Loan Agreement Forms and Schedule of Particulars) could not be generated by NSFAS due to course code mismatches between the data from the institution and NSFAS records on the system.
(ii) 1 294 Students had not signed their LAFSOPs.
(iii) 823 Students payments were being processed.
NSFAS is not aware of any student that has not received funding due to any other administration error.
2. NSFAS is not aware if the SRC arranged transport to NSFAS offices. NSFAS arranged for their Servicing Team to visit the institution to assist students with signing their LAFSOPs in August and October 2017. Both attempts were not successful as the students were protesting at that time, and campuses were closed. NSFAS then generated paper-based LAFSOPs, which the Financial Aid Office at CPUT collected and contacted students individually to sign these agreements. Those that were signed were returned to NSFAS for processing.
3. (a) 2 169 students as outlined above.
(b) The Department of Higher Education and Training met with the Executive Committee (EXCO) of Universities South Africa and NSFAS on
15 June 2017 to address the administration issues raised by students, SRC Presidents and Secretaries General to discuss the challenges experienced during the 2017 roll out of the new student centred model and NSFAS’ proposed 2018 implementation plan. A joint task team was established to address the 2017 challenges and plans for the 2018 application cycle. The task team has been meeting since 15 June 2017 and progress related to the 2017 and 2018 processes is being closely monitored. In addition, NSFAS has deployed servicing teams to institutions where additional on-site support has been required.

- Paragraph 12: Duration of the Codes
- A Code remains in effect until amended, substituted or repealed under Section 9 of the Act.
- The Minister may review the Codes at any stage and regular reviews will take place to monitor the implementation of BBBEE throughout the economy

2. Quantifiable Benefits from attending CISMEF
Some of the most remarkable benefits derived from CISMEF are not necessarily quantifiable. The level of exposure these SMME’s received as well as the skills they gained from being part of CISMEF could never be measured but they are none the less just as important as the Business to Business deals that were made.
The co-hosting of the 14th CISMEF has provided the Department an opportunity to show-case the capabilities of SME’s in our country on a global scale. This was the first international pavilion the DSBD has participated in, since proclamation. The opportunity afforded our SME’s with a platform to not only to access global markets for their products but also to gain linkages to their Chinese counterparts.
The upshot of CISMEF was the conducting of Business to Business (B2B) match making activities principally with clients from the Bank of China and other business associations. South African exhibitors have reported successful market linkages with Chinese counterparts. The process of engagement between South African and Chinese companies is ongoing but thus far identified B2B linkages that may translate into trade opportunities for participating enterprises are as follows:

Waters, Mr M to ask the Minister of Home Affairs
With reference to the reply to question 2207 on 17 August 2017, what progress has been made with regard to the process that will give naturalised citizens the opportunity to apply for new Smart ID Cards?
Reply:
As indicated previously, the Department continues to rollout the issuance of smart ID Cards in a phased-in approach. The process of expanding the Live Capture footprint and the verification process of the records for naturalised citizens are ongoing as are the system upgrades which will make provision for this category of applicants.
Upon determination of adequate footprint and system status readiness, the Minister will make an announcement which will give naturalised citizens the opportunity to apply for Smart ID Cards

Vos, Mr J to ask the Minister of Home Affairs
What are the full details of the roll-out programme of electronic visas that is to be implemented by March 2018 in terms of (a) how the electronic visas will work and (b) what the roll-out programme will entail?
Reply:
(a) eVisa introduces online capture of visa and permit applications and capturing of applicant’s biometrics in South Africa and abroad. An application will be captured and submitted online together with the required supporting documents that will be scanned and attached to the application. The applicant will then present himself/herself before a DHA Official for biometric enrolment and verification of the submitted supporting documents is conducted at this stage. The application form together with supporting documents and biometrics are then electronically routed to DHA Head Office in Pretoria for adjudication. The applicant is electronically notified of the outcome via email as well as via the application portal. For an approved visa/permit, a secure QR-Code is generated for print on the notification notice/letter sent to the applicant. This QR-Code contains the approved visa/permit detail and is maintained and managed by DHA at a secure web-storage facility. The same QR-Code will be scanned to view and validate the issued virtual visa/permit upon arrival of the applicant within the Republic. The same QR-Code is also pre-loaded into Biometric Movement Control System upon approval of the application and the virtual visa/permit (eVisa/ePermit) will be further validated at the Port of Entry upon arrival of the applicant.
(b) The roll-out programme will be gradual starting with Phase 1, Release 1, which entails applications for temporary residence visas, adjudication of temporary residence visas, applications for waivers, notifications to the applicant via email and biometrics captured at the Mission. The ePermit will be piloted at one Mission or local office in the last quarter of the next financial year by 31st March 2019. This is to ensure system stability. Once stable, more offices locally and abroad can then be gradually brought online.

Bucwa, Ms H to ask the Minister of Higher Education and Training
(1)With reference to her reply to question 3221 on 30 November 2017, on what basis was her department’s tender for the organising of events on 20 May 2016 deemed urgent, when it was indicated in the specified reply that the need for the service was identified some six months earlier; (2) what (a) are the details of the bidders that responded to the specified tender, (b) amount did each bidder tender for, (c) criteria were used to award the tender and (d) weighting was applied to each of the criterion for each bidder; (3) (a) what are the details of Batsumi Travel (Pty) Ltd’s experience in organising and managing events and (b) on what basis was the specified tender awarded to the specified company; (4) what are the full details in terms of dates, venues, purposes, sizes and final costs of each event organised by the company for her department to date
Reply:
1. The tender for organising of events was deemed urgent based on the following:
- The Department of Higher Education and Training at the time had cancelled a bid to make provision in the revised terms of reference for emerging business to contend.
- In the interim, the Department participated in a contract for events management services of the Department of Basic Education that was nearing its expiry date at the end of December 2015.
- Thereto, numerous request for events and related services were received and due to the monetary threshold, deviation approval of either the accounting officer or National Treasury was necessary. This was undesirable as it would lead to an increase in administrative duties and delays in the procuring of services. The hosting of the then Mandela Day Career Festival was one such event, which required specialised labour and skills not available within the Department.

Macpherson, Mr DW to ask the Minister of Trade and Industry
With reference to product licences that fall under the authority of the SA Bureau of Standards, (a) what number of product licences has expired, (b) what steps has his department taken to eradicate the backlog, (c) (i) what is the name of each product that has an expired licence and (ii) on what date did each licence expire and (d) what is the cost to the economy with regard to expired licences?
Reply:
The management of the SABS has provided the Department with the following information.
- The SABS does not issue product licences. Since the promulgation of new legislation, the SABS Act of 2008, the SABS Mark is a voluntary tool for quality assurance in the domestic and global market.
- The SABS Mark continues to be issued. Companies that hold an expired SABS Mark can continue to use it even if it has expired. A SABS Division was created in 2017 to deal with the backlog and provides access to laboratories all over the country to test products as well as provide the necessary governance and assurance oversight of these SABS conformity assessment services.
- The management of the SABS has not provided a satisfactory response containing the requisite information. I have written to the SABS management demanding that they do in fact provide an urgent response to the Department of Trade and Industry.
- No calculation of this cost has been undertaken.
The Department of Trade and Industry is the only shareholder of the SABS. In my capacity as the Minister of Trade and Industry, in the light of the above and with respect to ongoing concerns relating to the SABS Mark function, I recently gave instructions to the SABS Board to urgently oversee a detailed process to develop a turnaround strategy for SABS. This will, inter alia, include a full scope of all the existing SABS Mark functions and processes involved in developing the Mark; operational challenges and stakeholder engagements in order to strengthen this critical pillar of SA’s industrialisation effort. I shall provide a full report to Parliament in this regard in due course.

Reply:
The management of the SABS has not provided a satisfactory response containing the requisite information. I have written to the SABS management demanding that they do in fact provide an urgent response to the Department of Trade and Industry

According to information provided by the management of the South African Bureau of Standards (SABS):
a) The SABS has 30 business units undertaking testing.
b) The SABS conducts testing as part of conformity assessment in line with the prescripts of ISO 17 000. Testing falls into 3 categories as follows; Third Party Testing where a product complies fully with a standard and the testing activities were conducted by an independent third party (SABS); Second Part Testing where the SABS tests products on behalf of another institution which defines the required specification and First Party Testing where the SABS provides product development support to manufacturing companies.
c) The management of the SABS has not provided a satisfactory response containing the requisite information. I have written to the SABS management demanding that they do in fact provide an urgent response to the Department of Trade and Industry.
d) As above.
e) As above.
The Department of Trade and Industry is the only shareholder of the SABS. In my capacity as the Minister of Trade and Industry, in the light of the above and with respect to ongoing concerns relating to the SABS testing function, I recently gave instructions to the SABS Board to urgently oversee a detailed process to develop a turnaround strategy for SABS. This will, inter alia, fully scope all the existing SABS testing facilities and their respective capabilities, those which are no longer functional or have been degraded; the cost of maintaining and/or upgrading and reopening those facilities which are critical to SA’s industrialisation effort; resolve any legal issues which may stand in the way of undertaking partial testing and conduct a review of the three technical infrastructure Acts. I shall provide a full report to Parliament in this regard in due course.

Mbabama, Ms TM to ask the Minister of Trade and Industry

Reply:
GSSSD RESPONSE:
(1) Yes, the Department has a Sexual Harassment Policy in place.
(i) According to the dti Sexual Harassment Policy’s reporting procedure, employees who are of the view that they may have fallen victim of sexual harassment are strongly encouraged to report the case directly to the Manager: Employment Relations or the Manager: Quality of Worklife. All such reports are treated in the strictest confidence and are dealt with in a sensitive and supportive manner. Upon receiving the complaint (due to its employment equity-related nature) the matter is referred to the focal person for Employment Equity and Transformation for thorough investigation. A report with findings and recommendations is compiled and submitted to the Deputy Director-General responsible for employment equity, for implementation.
(ii) Due to the sensitivity and seriousness of sexual harassment, the disciplinary procedure is utilised to address the complaint. In problematic cases of sexual harassment involving sexual assault such as rape, molestation, attempted rape or physical assault, the alleged harasser is suspended with full pay pending the outcome of the disciplinary hearing.
For cases such as attempted rape, molestation, physical assault, rape or persistent harassment, the Chairperson of the disciplinary hearing uses the Disciplinary Code and Procedure to determine the sanction. The victim of sexual assault has the right to open separate criminal and/or civil claims against the alleged harasser and the employer. The legal rights of the complaint are in no way limited by the dti Sexual Harassment Policy.

De Freitas, Mr MS to ask the Minister of Transport
With reference to the fatal train crash at the Geldenhuys Train Station in Germiston on 9 January 2018, (a) how often was the signalling system (i) tested and (ii) maintained (aa) in the (aaa) 2014-15, (bbb) 2015-16 and (ccc) 2016-17 financial year and (bb) since 1 April 2017 and (b)(i) what were the results of each test respectively and (ii) what action was taken in each case?
Reply:
a) Signalling system:
i & ii) On a monthly basis job cards are issued for maintenance and during the maintenance execution the correspondence tests are conducted. The cycle for both testing and maintenance is 3 monthly and 6 monthly based on the type of sub-system. This is referred to as Planned Maintenance. The region did not capture the information on planned maintenance prior to 2017 calendar year. This has been rectified and maintenance job cards are now captured on the Infrastructure Maintenance system. Breakdowns or unplanned maintenance was captured.
aa)
aaa) 2014-15: The standard report from the Infrastructure Maintenance system is provided in calendar years and only the last three years’ information is active.
bbb) 2015 (January to December 2015)
The region did not capture the information on planned maintenance prior to 2017 calendar year. This has been rectified and maintenance job cards are now captured on the Infrastructure Maintenance system. Breakdowns or unplanned maintenance was captured.
ccc) 2016 (January to December 2016)
The region did not capture the information on planned maintenance prior to 2017 calendar year. This has been rectified and maintenance job cards are now captured on the Infrastructure Maintenance system. Breakdowns or unplanned maintenance was captured.
bb) 2017 (January to December 2017)
b) (i) When correspondence tests are conducted as part of routine maintenance as per above maintenance frequencies and there are defects detected during the tests, those defects are attended to and in cases where they cannot be rectified immediately, the train control office is informed immediately just like it was informed during theft of more than 100 meters of various signalling cables at Geldenhuys during the festive season 2017.
Furthermore the Section between Cleveland and Driehoek has been under construction over the past year. The construction work was aimed at replacement of an obsolete signalling system with the latest technology. The new signalling system at Geldenhuys was fully tested and commissioned on 30 November 2017. Due to recurrence of cable theft during the festive season, the new signalling system was then affected and hence manual train authorization was introduced as part of the contingency plan for train working.
ii) Records of the results of tests and actions are kept at the depot level and are not captured on the system. There are plans to capture this on the Maintenance system going forward.
