1. The Department is not in possession of the report referred to.

(a),(b),(c) Falls away.

2. There are six trustees whose names appear on the Letter of Authority. One of them, Cornelius Johannes Vlok, has since died. The remaining five are still active. The Trust has not had an Annual General Meeting (AGM) for quite some time, hence the intervention by the Department of Rural Development and Land Reform to ensure that the project is resuscitated and necessary processes followed.

3. Yes.

(a) The AGM to appoint new trustees was held on 25 November 2017. The following members were appointed:

1. John Busakwe as Chairperson

2. Hamilton Vuso as Vice Chairperson

3. Hester Pullen as Secretary

4. Elthia Kievits as Assistant Secretary

5. Mary Ngene as Treasurer

(b) Membership verification has been done and the verification report was discussed at the meeting of 25 November 2017.

Vos, Mr J to ask the Minister of Tourism

Whether, in line with the National Tourism Sector Strategy which makes provision for partnerships with municipalities to convert underutilised resorts into budget resorts, any such programs have been implemented; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details?

Tourism is a concurrent function. Although the Department conducted an audit which provided a baseline of municipal and provincially owned tourism assets, the decision to convert these underutilised resorts into budget resorts must be taken by the responsible owning entities. This audit report, produced in partnership with the Industrial Development Corporation (IDC), was made available to all provinces for their project and budget planning purposes of their tourism assets. The Department remains committed to providing support to Provincial and Municipal projects from a planning and investment packaging perspective in cases where municipalities have decided to pursue the budget resort approach.

The member is kindly referred to the responses by myself and my predecessor the past two years on the issue of municipal and provincially owned tourism assets.

As per previous responses the Department of Tourism cannot pursue the Budget Resort Concept independently but only in agreement and partnership with the owners of the tourism asset e.g. municipalities and /or Provinces.

2. Border crossing observation posts are monitored and manned by members of the SANDF.

Brauteseth, Mr TJ to ask the Minister of Tourism

(a) By what date (i) will a business plan for the Royal Khalanga Accommodation Lodge in Limpopo be tabled before the Portfolio Committee on Tourism, (ii) will her department submit a full report with regard to the costs, projected income, and viability of the resort to the specified Committee and (b) what role is envisaged for the (i) Greater Tzaneen Local Municipality and (ii) Mopane District Municipality in relation to the resort?

Source

Reply:

The Department is not responsible for the operation of a project post-handover and therefore does not have information related to the business plan, costs, projected income of the resort and role of the Greater Tzaneen Local Municipality and Mopane District Municipality. This question will need to be referred to the Project Owning Entity.

America, Mr D to ask the Minister of Police

(1)What are the names of the Brigadier-Generals in the SA Police Service who failed to attain security clearance; (2) will they be dismissed from their position; if not, why not; if so, on what date?

Source

Reply:

(1) and (2) There are two Major-Generals whose files were closed in 2016, without issuing the clearance certificates. Their files were closed because they had not submitted all the required documentation.

These Major-Generals are now required to re-apply, in terms of the new directive by the National Commissioner. The directive instructs all Generals and Brigadiers to submit their applications before the end of December 2017. Their names cannot yet be disclosed, considering that, together with all members of senior management, they have been afforded the opportunity to re-apply within the stipulated time frames.

In the interim, members of the Senior Management Service (SMS), are being dealt with in terms of Section 70 and 71 of the South African Police Service Act, which require them to take an oath of secrecy.

Furthermore, consistent with the requirements of the Minimum Information Security Standards (MISS) policy, the respective supervisors must, at the end of every financial year, furnish a certificate regarding the security conduct of persons who do not yet possess security clearance certificates.

The MISS policy states, amongst others, that “the screening authority will merely make a recommendation regarding the security competence of the person concerned, to the head of the requesting institution, and this should in no way be seen as a final testimonial, as far as the utilisation of the person is concerned”. The relevant legislation and the MISS do not provide for the dismissal of persons who fail to obtain security clearance certificates.

Taking the above into account, it is clear that each case will have to be considered on its own merit.

Reply:

1. (a) (i) The Agri-Park initiative was started in 2015 with the development of a district wide Agri-Parks business plan that was signed off by the District Municipality in 2016.

(ii) The Agri-hub construction will start in the 2018/19 financial year; the fencing project is already approved and is at planning stage. A mechanisation centre is also planned for the 2018/19 financial year. The focus in the district has been on the establishment of the Farmer Production Support Unit (FPSUs) in Beaufort West and in Prince Albert.

The Beaufort West FPSU is being established on erf 394 in Beaufort West, which has a grazing capacity of 36 Ha/LSU1. It is envisaged that 600 ewes and 20 rams will be housed on this farm.
The Prince Albert FPSU (Erf 783 in Prince Albert Municipality) will focus on the production of dried fruit and the facility has been fenced by the RID branch.
Remainder of Portion 4 of Farm No. 137, Wolve Kraal in Prince Albert Registration Division, owned by Prince Albert Local Municipality is earmarked for an apricot plantation to supply the FPSU. An Environmental Impact Assessment of the property is currently underway.
33 Narysec Youth are currently at various TVET colleges undergoing mixed farming, animal production, project management, agri-sales and services and marketing learnerships. A further 45 were recruited during 2017 and will be starting their college training in January 2018. These youth will receive accredited training at NQF levels 3 and 4 and after the completion of these learnerships will find themselves placed in the FPSU sites and Agri-hub.

Such information relating to service providers and/or contractors of the State Security Agency (SSA) forms part of the broader operational framework of the SSA and therefore remains classified and privileged. Information about service providers and/or contractors is a matter that falls in the ambit of national security and therefore excluded from public disclosure. It should however be observed that the SSA is held accountable on such matters by the Joint Standing Committee on Intelligence (JSCI).

Reply:

1. The Minister has met with the Chief Executive Officer. The outcome of the meeting was that the Department of Small Business Development (DSBD) together with the Small Enterprise Development Agency (SEDA) and the Small Enterprise Finance Agency (SEFA) will discuss possible areas of cooperation to include amongst other things, mentorship, sharing of research, the ecosystem analysis, etc. Furthermore, it was also agreed that a workshop/summit to discuss available finance for SMMEs in both public and private sector shall be conducted.

2. Government did an analysis on the focus as well as the terms and conditions of the Fund established through the CEO Initiative. Research on the ecosystem conducted by the Department shows that there is limited funding that is available for enterprises that are at an ideation, proof of concept and early start-up phase, and this is the category that is not going to be supported by the fund set up through the CEO initiative. Therefore, government will proceed with its plans of setting up a fund that will address this particular gap in the market and to ensure that Radical Economic Transformation is realised. National Treasury will be best positioned to respond regarding the exact dates of committing funding to the Enterprise Development Fund that government is working on.

Van Dyk, Ms V to ask the Minister of Communications

Did the Greater Lebowakgomo Community Radio (GLCR) apply for a licence; if not, why is GLCR being allowed to broadcast; if so, (a) when did the GLCR apply for the licence, (b) how long is the licence valid for and (c) what is the registered name of the entity to which the licence was granted?

Source
Link

Reply:

1. A Community Sound Broadcasting Service (CSBS) licence and a radio frequency spectrum licence were issued to the Greater Lebowakgomo Community Radio (GLCR) in 2008. Both licences expired on 27 October 2013. On 25 March 2014, the Authority published in the Government Gazette 37467, a notice giving all CSCBS licensees whose licences had expired, an opportunity to submit applications for renewal of their licences within thirty (30) working days from the date of publication.

2. GLCR did not submit a renewal application during the grace period despite its name appearing in the said Notice and therefore does not have valid service and spectrum licences issued to it.

3. Having failed to submit its renewal application during the grace period provided by the Authority in 2014, GLCR was required to submit an application for a new licence in order for it to continue providing broadcasting services. No application was received by the Authority.

4. On 22 September 2015, the Authority published a Notice of a Moratorium in Respect of Applications for Class Community Sound Broadcasting Service Licences and Applications for Radio Frequency Spectrum for purposes of providing a Community Broadcasting Service in Government Gazette No. 39226. This Notice effectively means that GLCR can only apply for a new community broadcasting licence once the Authority lifts the Moratorium.

5. In terms of section 7 of the ECA, no person may provide any broadcasting service without a licence. The Authority is investigating the alleged unlawful broadcasting operations / service by GLRC with a view to taking appropriate enforcement action.

Waters, Mr M to ask the Minister of Transport

(1)With reference to his reply to question 2787 on 19 September 2017, what are the reasons that the size of the culverts under the N3 highway were not done in accordance with the master plan (a) after the 2009 flood and/or (b) in 2011 as this resulted in the flooding of the N3 highway in 2016; (2) what steps are being taken to ensure that the proposed improvements to the Bedfordview drainage, which will lead to faster runoff to and under the R24 will not cause flooding at Boeing Rd and further downstream; (3) will the proposed retention pond of 14000 m3 between R24 and Boeing Rd be sufficient to retain all the water from a 1:20 year storm event; if not, (a) why not and (b) what steps is his department taking to ensure the retention dam can retain water from a 1:20 year storm?

1. (a) The master plan for the development of the area was approved by the City of Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality. A layout plan was obtained from Ekurhuleni Metro showing the development upstream of the culvert in the flood plain. From this layout plan it is clear that City approved developments based on a 1:20 year flood, which was not shown on the plans, and not based on the 100 year flood as per legislation applicable. The development of the erven is in the flood plain that acted like a natural retention pond. Calculations by our independent experts indicate that the development is in fact below the 20 year flood line. Prior to the property development within the flood plain the culvert acted adequately. Due to the risk associated with the downstream flooding of property if culvert sizes are increased, the size of the culverts cannot just be increased without substantial improvement to downstream drainage by City of Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality.

(b) Due to risk associated with the downstream flooding of property the size of the culverts cannot just be increased without substantial improvement to downstream drainage by City of Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality on their land.

2. SANRAL is aware of the problems in the area especially regarding flooding in the vicinity of Boeing Road and the engineers are in discussion with the City of Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality to address the problem. In addition SANRAL is in a process of appointing professional consulting engineers to assist with a detailed investigation/design to find a solution in consultation with City of Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality.

3. (a) Retention ponds were only mentioned in the flood study as a possible solution to the problem but there were some reservations as to how effective these would be. The limited land space on both sides of the N12 highway will determine the size of the pond/s that can actually be constructed, and thus the size of the flood event that can be retained.

(b) SANRAL has already commenced with the appointment of its own professional consulting engineers to assist with detailed investigation/design to find a solution in collaboration with the City of Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality.
