Notes: Reasons for delays with settling the invoices
Nemisa
The reasons for the delays relates to dispute of invoices between supplier and end user; procurement documents not made available to finance to support the expenditure; dispute of rental to be paid as charged by Landlord
BBI
The 52 invoices are primary made up of 43 Tourvest invoices of which invoices have queries and once resolved will be paid.
SAPO
The invoices have not been paid due to the constrained cash flow position of both SAPO and CFG.
USAASA
The invoices not paid for more than 30 days relates to travel agents. The delays are as a results of the prolonged time to resolve queries with the service providers relating to i) lack of supporting documents provided by service providers, ii) rates charged on invoices not agreeing to quotations. The amount outstanding relating to rental of office printers was withheld due to non-completeness of services.
SENTECH
Invoices under query due to dispute over contractual assessment rates, Invoice under dispute due to rate of exchange, Invoice under dispute due to rate of exchange, Pre- payment Unreconciled due to price fluctuations in diesel, Refund from Avusa, Current invoice to be paid end of November, Incorrect Posting SAP, Masterdata (banking details) under query,
SITA
Note 1: 43 invoices amounting to R166 625 437.65 relates to Microsoft Ireland that SITA procured on behalf of consumers. SITA only pays Microsoft once the money is recovered from the customers. Of this 15 invoices amounting to R128 812 016.37 is about 120 days.
This arrangement is in place as part of SITA’s cash flow management in order to align cash inflows with cash outflows.
Note 2: 107 invoices amounting to R75 703 394.57 included in the amount over 120 days relates to disputes that are subject to formal investigations and are therefore disputes.
Payments are only processed after the formal investigations are finalized and any related disputes are resolved in line with best practice and also to ensure compliance with the PFMA.
Note 3: 580 invoices included in the amounts over 120 days amounting to R73 703 694.23 relates to disputes with suppliers that are in the process of being addressed with the specific suppliers
This relates to various disputes with specific suppliers. Invoices related to these disputes will be paid as soon as disputes are resolved in line with pest practices and also to ensure compliance with the PFMA.
Note 4: The rest of the invoices relates to operational reasons that are being addressed. The balance of invoices outstanding for longer than 120 days are 80 invoices amounting to R14 000 408.80. This small number of invoices requires further follow-up and verification before they can be paid.

Mackenzie, Mr C to ask the Minister of Telecommunications and Postal Services
With reference to his reply to question 3078 on 30 October 2017, (a) which processes are being amended to improve the SA Post Office’s ability and capacity to handle the increased volumes, (b) what is the cost of implementing these processes and (c) by which date will these improvements be completed?
Reply:
I have been informed by SAPO as follows:
(a)
- A total review of all operational activities was conducted and a duplicated process was identified. As a result, the function of sorting and dispatching mail items from Johannesburg International Mail Centre (JIMC) to Post Offices, has been moved to Mail Centres which are allocated around Gauteng. This has assisted JIMC in placing additional 20 staff members into their operations. The exercise had no cost implications.
- Additional six PC work stations were purchased at a cost of R90 000 to increase Capturing and Assessing processes. Ten printers were acquired at a cost of R90 000, to replace broken ones and for the new work stations. This has already been concluded.
- SAPO introduced dispatches on IPS system to Durban International Mail Centre (DIMC) and Capemail International Mail Centre (CIMC) in order to replace the aged Track and Trace system. CIMC and DIMC have already been implemented at no cost. They intend expanding this process to Witspos, Germiston and Tshwane Mail Centres at a cost of R245 000. This will be finalised in December 2017.
- The entity have started a Re-engineering process to establish crewing levels in line with a 24/7 operational window. They are currently operating night shift and weekend operations on overtime basis which cost R13 463 632 from April to November 2017, for JIMC, DIMC and CIMC.
- They have improved on the capturing process of items on the IPS system. SAPO used to capture the weight of items at an inception stage. This restricted processing outputs as capturing could only be done at work stations that had scales affixed to them. Only six work stations had scales affixed while the other 45 did not have scales. By moving the capturing of weights to a back office administration process, they are now capable of higher outputs on their capturing process of items as they are not restricted to using work stations with scales. No cost attached to this process and it has already been implemented.
- SAPO have reviewed the use of the Conveyor belt system within JIMC, in order to integrate the use of the belt with their current floor layout and process flow. They intend using the belt to eradicate demand of physical labour whereby, SAPO will use the belt within their process flow. An amount of R30 000, will be required to get the belt running.
- SAPO are currently in the process of changing the Expedited Mail Service (EMS) deliveries to Speed Service Couriers (SSC), in order to fulfil EMS Co-operative agreement. EMS must be delivered to the door and SAPO currently do not have capacity in terms of vehicles and drivers to fulfil this mandate nationally. In order to eradicate duplicate processes the door deliveries will be done by SSC. The process has already been implemented in Western Cape (WC), Eastern Cape (EC) and Kwa-Zulu Natal (KZN). SAPO still need to conclude rollout to Central, Wits and Northern Regions. They will require an additional five IPS work stations at Speed Services within these regions at a cost of R125 000.

The use of the conveyor belt system will be concluded in March 2018.

Khawula, Ms MS to ask the Minister of Water and Sanitation
Whether (a) her department and/or (b) any entity reporting to her own land; if so, in each case, (i) where is each plot of land located, (ii) what is the size of each specified plot and (iii) what is each plot currently being used for?
Reply:
a) The Minister hereby submits the land register which carries the DWS immovable water infrastructure. The land assets are grouped per type of use and are based on representative land areas that the DWS requires to host, access and maintain these assets. The fair values were calculated using representative land costs for urban and rural settlement areas, open rural land and tribal land.
The DWS is currently busy reconciling this register with the available title deeds, which is a time-consuming process, considering that not all title deeds and Surveyor-General (SG) diagrams are electronically available and that many of the tribal land areas still need to be formalized. The land asset register has been developed on the basis of control other than ownership.
The type of land ownership comprises: (Land Asset register attached)
- State owned land where the DWS or DPW own the land due to permanent use such as:
- Dam basins to store water and to cater for increased dam levels during flood events.
- Administrative buildings such as offices, residential housing, workshops and stores.
- Special facilities such as pump stations, water treatment works, reservoirs and wastewater works.
Servitudes on private and tribal land to carry the following types of infrastructure and to provide access to this infrastructure for operation and maintenance purposes:
- Canals
- Pipelines
- Tunnels
- Access roads to dams and other buildings
Servitudes for “backwater” events, when water levels in rivers exceed the normal flood lines due to the backwater effect of dams. These are only applicable upstream of dams.
b) The land area was calculated using the definition of control, meaning the minimum area that is required to accommodate the above water storage at dams, access to bulk distribution infrastructure and flood events. This considered representative servitude widths, where these are not available from title deeds, and representative unit costs of land.
(i) Location is available on a GIS; attached tables summarize the location per DWS scheme, area office and operating cluster.
(ii) Size of each item on the land register is shown in square meters in each table.
(iii) Use of the land is listed under the column “Facility Type Description”.

Not all employees in the Public Service are required to submit financial disclosures of interest. In terms of the Public Service Regulations, 2016 only Senior Managers are required to submit financial disclosures every year by 30 April for the previous financial year. The new Public Service Regulations, 2016 also gave the Minister of Public Service and Administration the power to identify other categories that must disclose.

Hadebe, Mr TZ to ask the Minister of Environmental Affairs
With reference to the product design and waste minimisation plans of her Department which certain official’s (name and details furnished) claims will be carried out by raising awareness, (a) what other measures will be taken to reduce waste, and (b) how will awareness reduce waste?
Reply:
a) The following measures will be implemented to promote waste reduction:
- Developing capacity through a specialised programme which upskills agri-stakeholders to minimise food loss.
- Compilation and updating of packaging design guidelines with the Department of Trade and Industry, Industry Associations and SABS, and a voluntary grading scheme with marketing value for brand owners can improve the design of packaging and increase collaboration between brand owners and recycling companies.
- Formalising the packaging industry extended producer responsibility plans to enable and support the unification and alignment around packaging design guidelines and other packaging industry initiatives, a mechanism which formalises Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR).
- Implementation of packaging design guideline once it has been developed.
b) The awareness initiatives are additional measures to enhance waste minimisation and promote the recycling economy. These measures aim to create a joint platform for communicating messages to improve consumer behaviour and industry practice towards pro-recycling in the waste sector by focusing on specific areas, including:
- minimisation of food waste by eating ugly fruit;
- separation of waste at household-level (e.g. promote the incentives and/or Buy Back Centres, re-inforce the benefits of not contaminating paper waste with food waste, etc.); and
- safe disposal of waste (e.g. promote and create awareness on the e-Waste drop-off centres).
The awareness raising measures will increase consumer awareness and demand for recyclable products that are packaged in an environmentally friendly manner.

Hadebe, Mr TZ to ask the Minister of Environmental Affairs
(1)With reference to Operation Phakisa and waste disposal, (a) will her Department introduce an e-waste levy to increase the collection rate, (b) what are the plans of her Department to deal with e-waste, and (c) will it be (i) local or (ii) exported; and (2) (a) how will the new proposed levy increase collection rates, and (b) how will it be different to the plastic bag levy?
Reply:
1. a) Yes. The participants representing the ewaste sector requested that waste charges be introduced to increase the collection rates of ewaste.
b) The Department will be implementing a policy mechanism provided for in Section 28 of the National Environmental Management Waste Act, Act No. 59 of 2008. This policy mechanism is the Indstry Waste Management Plans (IndWMP).
c) The implementation of IndWMP promotes local beneficiation of waste materail. This will require capital funding to support large infrastructure and technology investments. These will be funded through the waste charges implemented.
2. a) There is no legislation currently in place to compel the end user to dispose of the e-waste in line with the waste hierarchy. The implementation of the levy will enable Product Responsibility Organisations (PROs) to provide financial incentves to encourage the end users to take back any redundant equipment to a buy or taker-back centre or an accredited recycler. The IndWMPs will also contain targets for collection and recycling. The Producer will be legally required to achieve these targets, and there will be adequate public awareness programs as part of these plans as well.
b) The plastic bag levy is collected by the South African Revenue Service and transferred to the National Revenue Fund. The new Industry Waste Management Plan for Paper and Packaging will include measures to collect waste plastics in general, of which plastic bags are a part of. The Industry Waste Management Plan levy will be approved together with the approved plan for the collection of the various plastics, including plastic bags.

All personal and officials that undertake travel are chosen on the strength of their capabilities and value addition. Notwithstanding that the question is by and large open-ended in terms of defining the period for which the information is required, all officials who travel, do so within the limits of the budget. |

Cardo, Dr MJ to ask the Minister of Economic Development
(1)Whether the shareholders of a certain company (name furnished) have any connection or link with any (a) member of and/or (b) associate of a certain family (name furnished); if so, what are the relevant details; (2) whether any (a) member of and/or (b) associate of the specified family is a (i) shareholder or (ii) beneficiary of the specified company; if so, what are the relevant details?
Reply:
I have been furnished with a reply by the CEO of the IDC, Mr Geoffrey Qhena, to the question, which follows below.
“There are no known members of the Gupta family that are Shareholders at Foskor. Historically the IDC has not been aware of any links by the Foskor Shareholders to the Gupta family.
Subsequent to the parliamentary question to the IDC, an extensive search to establish any links was undertaken.This search revealed no link to Coromandel International Limited, Sun International (FZE) Dubai, Kopano Foskor Employees Trust (SPV 3) and Ba-phalaborwa and Umhlathuze Community Trust (SPV 2). A link was however established with the Manyoro Consortium (SPV1).
To our knowledge, a possible connection is that of a Ms R Govender, with an ultimate indirect percentage in Foskor of 0,23% of the equity via the Manyoro Consortium. The consortium is a broadly held BEE entity. Ms R Govender is not involved in Foskor operations. Following the parliamentary question we have since established that she serves as a director in companies with Gupta family shareholding.”

Mokause, Ms MO to ask the Minister of Human Settlements
(1)How many officials and/or employees in her department were granted permission to have businesses and/or do business dealings in the past three financial years; (2) are any of the officials and/or employees that have permission to have businesses and/or do business dealings doing business with the Government; if so, (a) what was the purpose of each business transaction, (b) when did each business transaction occur and (c) what was the value of each business transaction?
Reply:
(1) Three officials were granted permission to have businesses in the past three financial years.
(2) All three requests for approval were not for business with the state or its organs.
I wish to point out to the Honourable Member that employees are prohibited from doing business with the state or its organs. Incidentally, it was during my tenure as Minister of Public Service and Administration that the Public Administration Management Act of 2013 which introduced the prohibition was drafted, processed through Cabinet and Parliament and was enacted by the President in 2013.
Honourable Member, the prohibition referred to above is currently enforceable through section 13 (c) of the Public Service Regulations. The said section stipulates that an employee shall not conduct business with any organ of state or be a director of a public or private company conducting business with an organ of state, unless such an employee is in an official capacity a director of a company listed in schedule 2 and 3 of the Public Finance Management Act”.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
In terms of the Public Service Regulations 13 (c), “An employee shall not conduct business with any organ of state or be a director of a public or private company conducting business with an organ of state, unless such an employee is in an official capacity a director of a company listed in schedule 2 and 3 of the Public Finance Management Act”;
Further, in terms of the Public Service Regulations 24, “An application by an employee to perform remunerative work outside his or her department shall be in accordance with the process determined by the Minister and in the form issued by the Minister.”
Accordingly, a Directive on Conducting Business with an Organ of State was issued in January 2017 by the Minister for Public Service and Administration.

Meshoe, Rev KR to ask the Minister of Home Affairs
(1)(a) Whether the current electoral law is transitional or permanent; and (b) if it is transitional, by what date will it be made permanent; (2) whether any recommendations made by the Van Zyl Slabbert Commission on Electoral Reform report of January 2003 have been implemented; if not, why not; if so, (a) which recommendations were implemented and (b) on what date were the recommendations implemented?
Reply:
(1) The current electoral law, namely, the Electoral Commission Act, 1996 (Act 51 of 1996), the Electoral Act, 1998 (Act 73 of 1998), and the Local Government Municipal Electoral Act, 2000 (Act 27 of 2000) are permanent and remain applicable. Section 5(1)(j) of the Electoral Commission Act empowers the Commission to continuously review legislation and to propose amendments to the national legislature. Therefore the Commission periodically makes proposals regarding amendments to electoral laws.
(2) The Electoral Task Team was established by Cabinet in 2002. The Task Team was unable to reach consensus and in consequence, two reports were presented. A majority report advocated for change in the electoral system and the minority report argued for the retention of the extant electoral system. As far as the Electoral Commission is aware, neither of the recommendations of the Majority or Minority Report of the Electoral Task Team was formally adopted and implemented. It is the prerogative of Cabinet to process the recommendations, and any consequential actions therefrom arising.

Filtane, Mr ML to ask the Minister of Water and Sanitation
(1) When was she informed of the water crisis at the Butterworth Hospital in the Eastern Cape which resulted in patients being discharged to go home and suffer or probably die; (2) whether she notified the essential services such as the Butterworth Hospital of the water shortage; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details; (3) whether her department has taken any urgent steps to address the water crisis in the specified hospital in order to avoid the loss of lives; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details?
Reply:
(1) On 24 January 2017, I was informed of the water crisis pending drought disaster not limited to the Butterworth Hospital but for the entire Butterworth in the Eastern Cape. The Amathole District Municipality (DM) re-declared the drought in January 2017.
(2) Yes, essential services such as the Provincial Department of Health was kept abreast of the unfolding disaster through stakeholder meetings which included the Provincial Drought Technical Task Team, Provincial Sector Departments meetings and Joint Operation Committee meetings held in Butterworth where they were requested to make their own intervention plans as the Amathole DM made it clear that it would not have the capacity to provide the full water demand.
(3) Weekly dam levels have been provided by the Department to the Amathole DM and Provincial Disaster Management Centre. When the situation at Xilinxa Dam supplying Butterworth and surrounding areas became alarming, it was anticipated that it will have serious effect on the hospital and other institutions such as the Walter Sisulu University (WSU) campus. Regular drought water crisis meetings were held with the Amathole DM as the Water Services Authority and other key stakeholders, where they were requested to provide the drought intervention plans.
When the surface water supply to Butterworth (Xilinxa Dam and Gcuwa Dam) ran out completely, the Amathole DM prioritised carting of water to the Hospital. Owing to the logistics and costs of carting water from the nearest alternative source some 30km away, the Amathole DM was unable to meet the full demand at the hospital as well as to provide basic supply to all domestic consumers in Butterworth.
My Department has conducted drought awareness campaigns in Butterworth and has granted permission to the Amathole DM for the re-allocation of the Water Services Infrastructure Grant (WSIG) funding to accommodate emergency water supply in Butterworth through the Butterworth Emergency Water Supply Scheme (pipeline from Tsomo River to Xilinxa Dam), water tankering and groundwater investigations, namely, hydrogeological investigations, drilling, testing and equipping of boreholes at Butterworth, Kotana, Ehlobo, Teko Springs and WSU.
My Department approached the Office of the Premier, Provincial Department of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs (CoGTA) and Provincial Treasury; as a result an amount of R 3 million has been pledged to assist Amathole DM with the drought.
Fortunately the water outage was short lived and the rain which fell from
8 to 9 October 2017 brought relief and the Gcuwa Dam was filled, but the Xilinxa Dam only rose to 7%, which will provide approximately 3 months supply. Butterworth is therefore not out of the crisis yet and needs close monitoring hence my Department has allocated Amathole DM with ten water tankers.

Mileham, Mr K to ask the Minister of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs
(1)Whether, with reference to the amalgamation of municipalities at the time of the 2016 Local Government Elections, capacity assessments for each amalgamation were conducted by the Municipal Demarcation Board; if not, in each case, why not; if so, in each case, what was the recommendation of the capacity assessment; 2) whether each recommendation was followed-up by the board; if not, why not?
Reply:
The below response is based on the information provided by the Municipal Demarcation Board:
1. No.
2. The Municipal Demarcation Board conducted “formal investigations” in terms of the Local Government: Municipal Demarcation Act, 1998 on all the cases, which included the consideration of the capacity of municipalities.

Waters, Mr M to ask the Minister of Home Affairs
(1)Whether her department is taking steps to ensure that there are more voting stations situated at overseas venues, where a sufficient number of South Africans live and are registered; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details; (2) what has she found to be the number of citizens that constitutes a sufficient number?
Reply:
1. Yes. In respect of registration of voters and voting arrangements outside of the Republic, the Electoral Commission works in partnership with the Department of International Relations & Co-operation (DIRCO). Section 33(3) and 33(4) of the Electoral Act 73 of 1998 presently limit points of voting outside the Republic to embassies, high commissions and consulates. This is so because the Electoral Commission is dependent on DIRCO’s available human resources and related infrastructure for registration and voting arrangements outside of the Republic. In the meantime, the Electoral Commission has undertaken a review of procedures for voting outside the Republic in national elections following the 2014 national elections, and plans to approach DIRCO for the consideration of the possible expansion of the number of voting facilities outside of the Republic for the 2019 national elections, where diplomatic missions proved to be inadequate.
2. The operational details of this proposition including the threshold for number of registered voters per voting facility outside of the Republic are yet to be discussed and determined.

The Department of Water and Sanitation was only involved during the recommendation of the Technical Report submitted to source funding for the project. The Technical Report was approved in 2013 and the following scope of work was completed by the Mopani District Municipality:
- (a) New 5.94km long 400mm diameter steel pipeline starts from the connection point at Parma to the water treatment works site in Hoedspruit. The original scope of works as contained in the Technical Report was to treat raw water at Hoedspruit Water Treatment Works that was proposed to be built, however; the water will now be sourced from Blyde River and be treated at the new treatment works situated at Kampersrus.
2. Refer to the response provided in (1) above.

Hadebe, Mr TZ to ask the Minister of Environmental Affairs
(a) How does her department plan to enforce the separate source initiative mentioned in the Operation Phakisa: Chemicals and Waste Economy and (b) what will happen to those who refuse/fail to comply?
Reply:
(a) The Department is putting Norms and Standards for waste separation at source in 2018/19. The administrative and criminal enforcement would be carried out by Environmental Management Inspectors as empowered by the National Environmental Management: Waste Act, Act No 59 of 2008. However, municipalities that have made separation of waste at source mandatory as part of their by-laws have enforcement powers that they can also exercise accordingly.
(b) The Department is bound by the Constitution to support those that fail to meet the Norms and
Standards however criminal enforcement can be considered as a last resort in keeping with
co-operative governance.
In terms of the co-operative governance approach, the Department will endevour to assist those to come into compliance. Enforcement will be considered as the last resort to ensure compliance with the Norms and Standards.

Lekota, Mr M to ask the Minister of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs
What steps has he taken to ensure that all three spheres of government work in the spirit of cooperative governance to mitigate and to prepare coherently for the current and worsening water crisis in the City of Cape Town Metropolitan Municipality?
Reply:
The Department of Cooperative Governance (DCOG) established a multi-sectoral structure that coordinates the drought and water scarcity situation in the country. The National Joint Drought Coordination Committee (NJDCC) is operational and responsible for the coordination of drought and water scarcity conditions, response and intervention measures. The committee is made up of the following key stakeholders:
-
- Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs (COGTA),
- Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (DAFF),
- Department of Water and Sanitation (DWS),
- Department of Rural Development and Land Reform (DRDLR),
- Department of Health (DOH),
- Department of Environmental Affairs (DEA),
- Department of Labour (DOL),
- Department of Transport (DOT),
- South African National Defense Force (SANDF)
- Government Communication and Information System (GCIS) and
- South African Weather Service (SAWS)
- Provincial Disaster Management Centres
Additional to the NJDCC, the Provincial Intervention Task Teams (PITT), which comprise relevant organs of state within the three spheres of government, were established to directly engage and consult provinces and municipalities to interrogate their mitigation and response plans and also mobilise resources in line with each organ of state’s mandate. The Western Cape Province was visited and engaged to mobilise resources to address the drought and water scarcity situation. It is important to indicate that the Provincial Disaster Management Centers participates in the NJDCC to ensure proper coordination within sector departments, support to the municipalities and provide progress reports on the situation.
The NJDCC reports to the Inter-Ministerial Task Team (IMTT), led by the Minister of Cooperative Governance, Mr Des Van Rooyen, on drought and water scarcity conditions for political oversight and guidance response and recovery measures within the country. The department further coordinates and ensure integration through the MINMEC structure.

Dreyer, Ms AM to ask the Minister of Public Works
(a) What are the details of the procedures currently employed by his department when employees apply for and are granted leave (b) are manual or automated systems used and (c) what procedures are in place to ensure that all leave taken by employees is captured and granted timeously?
Reply:
a) The Determination and Directive on Leave of Absence in the Public Service as prescribed by the Department of Public Service and Administration is utilised. An employee must submit his/her application for annual leave in advance, unless unforeseen circumstances prevent him/her from doing so. If confronted with unforeseen circumstances which necessitate the utilization of annual leave, the employee must personally notify his/her supervisor/manager immediately. A verbal message to the supervisor/manager by a relative, fellow employee or friend is only acceptable if the nature and/or extent of the unforeseen circumstances prevents the employee from informing the supervisor/manager personally.
An employee must submit an application for annual leave personally or through a relative, fellow employee within 5 working days after the first day of absence. If the employee fails to submit the application on time or compelling reasons why an application cannot be submitted, the supervisor/manager must immediately notify the employee that if such application is not received within 2 working days, the leave period will be regarded as unpaid leave; and inform the Human Resource division.
Should the employee default on the notification the relevant authority shall approve such absence as unpaid leave. The employee’s supervisor/manager/ Head of Department and/or his/her delegate must within two working days from receipt of the leave application form recommend/not recommend and/or approve/disapprove this leave application and submit to the relevant Human Resource division in the department.
b) Manual system for submission of leave is utilised. The capturing of leave and the management of leave credits are done on PERSAL (Personnel and Salary Administration System).
c) Each Unit has a leave administrator that submit on a weekly basis leave forms to HR with a leave register. HR checks the leave forms and registers as well as the leave captured for compliance with the relevant legislation. Reminders to submit leave timeous to HR are send every quarter to the whole Department to ensure that the system is always updated. Units that submit leave late are informed and repeat offenders are reported to Branch Heads. Disciplinary action can in terms of the Determination and Directive on Leave of Absence be taken against the employee and manager.

Dreyer, Ms AM to ask the Minister of Public Works
(1) (a) What has been the vacancy rate in his department (i) in each of the past three financial years and (ii) since 1 April 2017, (b) how many of the vacancies are considered critical and (c) what are the reasons for not filling the vacancies; (2) whether he has found that the vacancies have a negative impact on the mandate of his department; if so, what are the relevant details?
Reply:
1(a). The vacancy rates of the Department for the past three financial years are as follows:
(i) 2014/15 - (21.6%)
2015/16 - (15.3%)
2016/17 - (16.03%)
(ii) As at 01 April 2017 the vacancy of the Department was 16.03%
(b). The department is currently in a transition; migrating from the old to the newly approved organisational structures and is therefore not able to provide the current and accurate number of vacancies for critical occupations. However, the number of critical vacancies as at 31 March 2017 was as follow:
|
Critical occupations |
Number of posts vacant |
|
Architects town and traffic planners |
13 |

|
Engineers and related professionals |
28 |
|
Mechanical engineering technicians |
0 |
|
Quantity surveyors and related professionals not classed elsewhere |
10 |
|
TOTAL |
104 |
(c) The non-filling of positions was as a result of the scarcity of skills and the review of the organisational structure. The organisational structures were approved 30 September 2016 and the Department is finalizing the migration processes in terms of matching and placement.
2. Yes, critical vacancies have a negative impact on the mandate of the department as they hamper on service delivery. The department is employing retired professionals to close the skills gaps and provide mentorship to candidate professionals.

Tarabella - Marchesi, Ms NI to ask the Minister of Basic Education
With reference to her reply to question 2965 on 25 October 2017, what was the reason for the reprioritisation that saw the Eastern Cape school transport budget decreased by R36 million?
Reply:
Further information has been requested from the Eastern Cape Department of Education and will be provided as soon as it is received.
01 December 2017 - NW2970
Boshoff, Ms SH to ask the Minister of Basic Education
With reference to her reply to question 2244 on 6 September 2017, (a) what are the (i) ages and (ii) grades of the learners who fell pregnant, (b) what number of the learners have returned to school after giving birth and (c) what professional background training does the Learner Support Agent who must assist the specified learners to cope with their pregnancies have?
Reply:
a) The reply was informed by the official data extracted from the Education Management Information System (EMIS). EMIS data on learner pregnancy is generally disaggregated by school and can provide grades of learners upon request, however this will not include their ages. The data shows that 34 learners were reported to be pregnant at Masiqhakaze Secondary while Tipfuxeni Secondary indicated that 5 learners were pregnant. The request for grade specific data has been submitted and this will be shared at the next meeting.
b) Although the Department encourages parents to ensure that learners return to school shortly after giving birth, the Department does not collect data on the number of leaners who actually return to school after giving birth.
c) The Learner Support Agent (LSA) is generally an out-of-school youth (similar to a community Child Care Coordinator, but in this case, specifically for the school) who supports learners with basic services including homework assistance, home visits, and access to learner support and learner health and wellbeing services. They do not directly assist learners to cope with pregnancy. LSAs refer learners to professionals who would grant them access to services where needed. Some LSAs have a professional background in Social Work or Child and Youth Care Work.
