c) The Chief Executive Officer approved the spending for each meeting and conference held.
d) The expenditure complied with the NIHSS’s policies. The NIHSS is neither a Department, nor a constitutional institution, nor a public entity listed in Schedule 2 or 3, and therefore the Public Finance Management Act is not applicable to the NIHSS. The Auditor-General of South Africa audits the NIHSS in terms of Section 38 of the Higher Education Act and since its inception has received unqualified audit opinions.

- Returning NSFAS students are eligible for continuous funding and are automatically funded by NSFAS for the next academic year/semester, provided they pass their modules and meet the progression requirements of the course and institution. Some universities submitted the academic results late to NSFAS;
- Requests from institutions to do “top up” allowances throughout the academic year. Tuition and allowance payments to institutions and students are initially made based on registration data that is sent by the university to NSFAS at the start of the academic year. However, during the year, universities submit tuition and allowance adjustments after NSFAS has received the original registration files, processed tuition and initial allowance payments. This situation was exacerbated by the increased volume of “top up” allowances processed in 2017;
- Given that 2017 represented the first year that NSFAS systems were integrated with institutional student funding systems, there were challenges experienced with the transfer of registration information. These included instances where the course code information at universities did not match the NSFAS records and where allowance values and tuition values have not been transferred in the required format to NSFAS systems;
- Challenges experienced with ensuring that students signed their Loan Agreement Forms/Statement of Particulars (LAFSOPs). This is partially attributed to the frequency with which students change their cell phone numbers. Efforts to ensure that NSFAS staff have been present and visible at campuses to assist in the signing of these LAFSOPs have been ongoing through the latter half of the year and has made a significant difference to the effectiveness of the LAFSOPs signing process. In addition, in some instances, NSFAS has made paper-based forms available to universities for signature and then reviewed and reconciled by NSFAS prior to payment. From 2018, students will be able to change their cell phone numbers online by accessing the MyNSFAS Portal; and
- In some cases, due to unexpected NSFAS system time-outs, a full funding processing cycle was not completed resulting in incomplete student loans being created in the systems. As a consequence, lengthy manual checks and reconciliations needed to be performed to ensure that correct loan accounts were created and allowances subsequently disbursed.
(c) (i) NSFAS has communicated with students in the following ways in an effort to increase awareness of the importance of students’ signing their loan or bursary agreements:
- Media releases;
- Social media, for instance, Twitter and Facebook; and
- Direct SMS’s and emails sent to students.
(ii) NSFAS is busy with the “close-off” of all 2017 funding and allowance processing to ensure that all eligible funded students receive any allowances that are still due to them. Additionally, there are a number of projects introduced, which have the objective of improving the funding and allowance disbursement process in 2018. All processes will be automated and data exception reporting will be implemented.
(iii) None.

Whether Sub 8 of the Heartsease Farm number 3291 in the Okhahlamba Local Municipality, in KwaZulu-Natal, where the construction of a petrol station is proposed, falls within the proposed United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization buffer zone surrounding the Okhahlamba World Heritage Site; if so, what steps has her Department taken to ensure that the proposed construction does not proceed; if not, what are the relevant details; and (2) whether her Department conducted any research and/or studies to determine the potential impact of the proposed construction on the tourism sector that is linked to the World Heritage Site; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details of the outcomes?
Reply:
1. Yes, the anticipated development is within the proposed buffer zone of Maloti-Drakensberg Park World Heritage Site. The draft Basic Assessment Report (BAR) is still under review, and it is important to note that the decision on whether the development proceeds or not and under what conditions will be informed by the assessment that has been commissioned. Because the proposed development is in the vicinity of the World Heritage Site, the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Practice Note on Environmental Impact Assessments and the International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS) Guidelines on Heritage Impact Assessment will be taken into consideration, as required by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization.
2. The Basic assessment process will ascertain, inter alia, any socio-economic and cultural considerations, including relevant studies and permissions to be sought in this regard, not excluding those relating to or relevant tourism and conservation of the world heritage property.

Reply:
a) It is unclear what is meant by “trust funds”. The Branch Masters, within the Department of Justice and Constitutional Development, administer the registration of “trusts” in terms of Trust Property Control Act 57 of 1988, which legislation does not cover trusts funds. Accordingly, the Department of Justice and Constitutional Development will not know the number of “trust funds” registered for the period referred to in the questions.
b) – (e) Responses to these questions, which were depended on question (a) above, is that the Department of Justice and Constitutional Development has no information requested because of answer in (a) hereinabove.

Madisha, Mr WM to ask the Minister of Water and Sanitation
(a) What is the current status of the intended augmentation of the capacity of the Clanwilliam Dam, Voëlvlei Dam and Brandvlei Dam, respectively, (b) what has caused the postponement of the specified projects and (c) when will these projects be finalised?
Reply:
a) Clanwilliam Dam
Site establishment activities for the Raising of Clanwilliam Dam project commenced in June 2014 and were completed in September 2016. The remainder of the Scope of Works for the construction of the Raising of Clanwilliam Dam will be done by a private construction contractor. This contractor will be procured through a competitive bidding process is line with Government’s Supply Chain Policies and Regulations.
Berg River Voëlvlei Augmentation Scheme (BRVAS)
Trans Caledon Tunnel Authority (TCTA) has commenced with the implementation of the project. Stakeholder engagement is in progress including negotiations with the water users in order to develop offtake agreements. The procurement of the Engineering Professional Service Provider (PSP) is also in progress; the tender has been advertised and will close on 6 April 2018.
Brandvlei Dam
The final outcome of this proposed project will be an increase of the Brandvlei Dam`s canal by 30cm. This will allow and additional amount of water to be diverted during the winter months for storage which will bring an additional area under irrigation. Further phases to increase the yield can include the upgrading of the 30 year old Papenkuils pump station in the Breede River. This project is clearly linked to the National Development Plan (NDP) as well as the outcomes derived from it.
b) Clanwilliam Dam
The bid for the appointment of a private sector construction contractor was issued on 26 August 2016 and closed on 9 November 2016. However, due to unavailability of funds for the construction phase of the project, the tender bid could not be awarded.
Berg River Voëlvlei Augmentation Scheme (BRVAS)
Unavailability of funding for the project delayed the project. My Department and TCTA are at advanced stage to secure funding and the National Treasury guarantees for the implementation of the project.
Brandvlei Dam
Unavailability of funding for the project delayed the project. The Provincial Department of Agriculture submitted a proposal for funding under the General Budget Support (GBS) component of the EU-funded National Development Support Programme for the first phase to raise the current canal with 30cm. No final decision was taken on the upgrading of the Papenkuils pump station.
c) Clanwilliam Dam
The construction phase of the project will commence when funding becomes available. In a bid to source funding, the project was submitted to National Treasury for inclusion in the budget facility for infrastructure for strategic projects.
Berg River Voëlvlei Augmentation Scheme (BRVAS)
TCTA has adopted a fast tracked approach to project implementation and legislative requirements, including borrowing authority approvals which will result in construction commencing in October 2019 with water delivery milestone being achieved in March 2021.
Brandvlei Dam
As the DWS owns the Brandvlei Dam and associated infrastructure, they will be the lead agency responsible for the design of the infrastructure to be constructed, overseeing the construction and to identify and appoint the construction company (either in-house or externally). The Brandvlei Intergovernmental Steering Committee, consisting of 18 directly involved or affected organs of state, will oversee the implementation of this project.

De Freitas, Mr MS to ask the Minister of Transport
What are the (a) short-, (b) medium- and (c) long-term plans with regard to the Gillooly’s interchange in the City of Johannesburg?
Reply:
a) In the short-term SANRAL is in the process of appointing service providers to address flooding problem through the expansion of the stormwater management infrastructure at the Interchange. This will be done in the upcoming 2018/19 financial year. In terms of traffic capacity Gillooly’s Interchange has been developed to its maximum potential and no further upgrades are possible due to the surrounding land developments.
b) The medium-term solution to address traffic capacity was the implementation of the new PWV 14 freeway (Gauteng Provincial Route) to redistribute traffic around Gillooly’s Interchange. PWV 14 forms part of GFIP phases 2 and 3, which are currently uncertain because of the rejection of the toll scheme in Gauteng and no available public funds. The Gauteng Province has also indicated that it does not have funding for this project.
c) See answer under (b).

Reply:
1. The information requested is currently not available. It has, accordingly, been requested from the KwaZulu-Natal Department of Education and it will be provided as soon as it is obtained.
2. The information requested is currently not available. It has, accordingly, been requested from the KwaZulu-Natal Department of Education and it will be provided as soon as it is obtained.
3. The Funza Lushaka Bursary Prpogramme is a merit bursary and it aims to only fund 25% of students enrolled at public Higher Education Institutions for recognised Initial Teacher Education programmes, namely the Bachelors in Education (B Ed) or the Post Graduate Certificate in Education (PGCE). The Department of Basic Education and the Basic Education Sector uses the programme to address critical teacher shortages in specified subject areas and school phases. The general criteria for award of the bursary are as follows:
a) The applicant must be a South African citizen;
b) The applicant must be accepted into an approved B Ed degree or PGCE programme to specialise in two or more of the priority areas;
c) The applicant should demonstrate good academic ability;
d) The applicant must show commitment to a teaching career, which includes: interest in working with young people; enthusiasm for a professional career in teaching; readiness to face and surmount difficult challenges and personal integrity; and
e) The applicant must be committed to teach in any school to which a student may be placed by a Provincial Education Department.
4. The Funza Lushaka Bursary Programme is intended to address specific teacher demand and supply issues in the Basic Education Sector. The Programme therefore carries a service obligation. That is, upon graduation the bursars should serve the Basic Education Sector for an equal number of years to their bursary assisted study period. As a result a Funza Lushaka Bursary holder is required to sign a bursary contract that binds them to the service obligation. As part of the contract, Funza Lushaka Bursary recipients have to be placed by a Provincial Education Department to teach in a public school in which a teacher is needed. The contract further stipulates that the bursary holder is obliged to take up placement immediately on completion of the initial teaching qualification. To ensure that this contractual obligation is realised without delay, the Funza Lushaka Bursary holders are prioritised for employment.

Hunsinger, Dr CH to ask the Minister of Transport
Why do applicants for a motorbike licence who are holders of a motor vehicle licence have to apply for a motorbike learner licence?
Reply:
The National Road Traffic Act, 1996 (Act No. 93 of 1996) and its Regulations, provides for the manner in which driving licences are to be issued. In terms of Section 12 of the mentioned Act it is provided that, no person shall drive a motor vehicle on a public road unless the person has an appropriate licence for such vehicle and unless the person keeps such licence in the vehicle. Further, Section 13 determines that no person shall be examined or tested for the purposes to issue a driving licence unless such person holds a learner’s licence.
Regulation 99(1)(a)(b) and (c) of the National Road Traffic Regulations, 2000 sets out the different categories of learner’s licences, which are:
(a) Code 1 (learner’s licence for to motor cycles);
(b) Code 2 (learner’s licence for light motor vehicles);and
(c) Code 3 (learner’s licence for heavy motor vehicles and combinations of vehicles).
Both Code 2 and 3 does not include any questions specific to the operation of motor cycles. The rationale for the above is because a person who applies to hold a driving licence for either a light or heavy motor vehicle does not necessarily intend to also hold a motor cycle licence.
Furthermore, the same principle applies in the case where a person who is the holder of a code B driving licence, who intends to apply for a Code C driving licence will have to undergo a process of obtaining a Learner’s Licence again, this time for a Code 3 learner’s licence.
The reason for this is because all the three Codes of learner’s licence differ with regard to the rules of the road and the controls for the operation of the respective motor vehicles.

INTERNAL QUESTION PAPER: 21/2017
1656. Ms N I Tarabella Marchesi (DA) to ask the Minister of Basic Education:
(1) Has each provincial department of education identified a list of schools considered to be priorities for scholar transport as funding becomes available; if not, why not; if so, (a) what criteria are used to determine priority schools and (b) which schools are on the priority list in each province;
(2) have any of the schools on the priority list been identified as a result of the school rationalisation programme; if not, why not; if so, will a separate additional budget allocation be made available for transport needed in the case of rationalised schools? NW1862E
Response
- Schools and learners who are not transported due to budgetary constraints are kept on a database and prioritised when additional funding becomes available.
- The criteria used by provinces to determine the priority schools is based on the criteria that is used to identify learners in those school as directed by the learner transport policy. The criteria are as follows:
- Priority is given to primary schools learners who walk long distances to schools;
- Beneficiaries must be needy learners from grade R to 12;
- Learner transport will be subsidised to the nearest appropriate school only and not to a school of parental choice (parental choice means parents prefer to enrol their children at schools other than the nearest suitable school);
- Priority must be given to learners with disabilities, taking into consideration the nature of the disability; and
- Existing learner transport services must be taken into account when identifying beneficiaries as no learner transport services will be provided in areas where public transport is available in order to avoid duplication of services and resources.
- List of Schools is attached as Annexure A
(2) Yes. There are schools that were identified as a result of rationalisation. A costing exercise is undertaken as part of the rationalisation programme to determine the additional funding required and requests are made for these funds, over and above the existing budget.

De Freitas, Mr MS to ask the Minister of Transport
(1)With regard to the N4 Wild Coast development project by the SA National Roads Agency (Sanral), why has Sanral continued to proceed with contracting before a legitimate application for judicial review against the environmental authorisation has been settled in court; (2) in view of the promise by a certain person (name and details furnished) to the local residents that the specified person would address their objections, (a) how has the person addressed and communicated the response to the local community, (b) what was the reaction by the local communities in this regard and (c) at what stage are public consultations with the local communities at present?
Reply:
1. The project, N2 Wild Coast Toll Road, has been declared as a Strategic Infrastructure Project (SIP) by the Presidential Infrastructure Coordinating Commission (PICC) and has been approved for implementation. The project has the support of the Eastern Cape Provincial Government, both the District and Local Municipalities through whose territory the route alignment traverses, the Traditional Leadership (Kings and Chiefs), Business Chambers, Communities and other stakeholders. As with other projects, there will always be some interested and affected parties that are against the project. The project enjoys overwhelming support in the Eastern Cape Province in general, and the Wild Coast in particular. The Record of Decision (ROD) was issued by the Department of Environmental Affairs in 2010 and has been implemented since that time on many projects along the N2 Wild Coast corridor. The ROD was appealed in 2010 but authorization was upheld by the Minister of Environmental Affairs. It is therefore still valid today. The matter that could be destined for court proceedings is a belated review application, launched in 2012, that seeks to question the validity of the ROD and desirability of the project. This matter is subject to legal processes and both the Department of Environmental Affairs and the Department of Transport along with SANRAL will do everything in their power to defend this very important project for the South African and Eastern Cape economies, and for the people of the Wild coast area.
2. (a) Numerous meetings were held with communities and specific responses were made in writing. The written responses to issues raised by the various communities were sent through the former Mayor of Mbizana Local Municipality to be shared with the various communities.
b) When SANRAL had engaged with the communities they indicated that what SANRAL indicated would be done during the implementation of the project was not what they were told. This is with specific reference to what was said by the AmaDiba Crisis Committee (ACC), who insisted that the road was to be constructed to facilitate dune mining along the Wild Coast. SANRAL has continuously rejected this claim, demonstrating the logic and purpose of this critical section of the N2 corridor. Once informed of the correct facts, communities pledged their support for the project on condition that SANRAL responded in writing to the issues that they raised. This was done via the office of the Mbizana Mayor. The communities in question, i.e the Mdatya and Sigidi communities subsequently withdrew their objection to the project.
c) Consultations in the form of stakeholder engagement sessions are ongoing with the local communities with the last ones held on the 24th and 25th January 2018 at the Wild Coast Sun in the Mbizana Municipality. Invitations were extended to the OR Tambo and Alftrd Nzo District Municipalities as well as all the local municipalities in those districts. Traditional Leaders and Business Chambers were also invited. All these stakeholders were represented in the sessions. These stakeholder engagement sessions are planned for every quarter of the year.

The Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS) measured the reading comprehension levels of learners in a representative sample of mainstream public schools. Within these sampled schools, the sampling methodology, which is externally prescribed by International Association for Education Assessment, did not differentiate between deaf and non-deaf learners. There was no specific indicator to count the number of deaf learners in the 2016 Study and in previous cycles.

Ollis, Mr IM to ask the Minister of Basic Education
With reference to her reply to question 2670 on 19 September 2017, has she made a decision regarding the tabling of the Ntshupetsang report?
Reply:
The Minister has made a decision regarding the Ntshupetsang report. The context of this report was that it was submitted to the Ministerial Task Team (MTT) as a confidential document in order to provide information on the cases under investigation in the selling of posts.
The report contains various confidential matters that need to be addressed through the audi alteram partem principles which could open the Department of Basic Education up for litigation, if not respected.
As the report emanates out of the provincial investigation, which is still sub judice, the Minister is not in a position to make its contents known. It is therefore advisable that the matter is taken up with the relevant province from which report emanates for them to determine when the report may be made available.
