By way of background, the redetermination of boundaries by the Municipal Demarcation Board during 2013 and 2015 resulted in a decrease of 21 local municipalities from 278 to 257 municipalities (districts, locals and metros). These major determinations were either as a result of amalgamations or the splitting of municipalities and subsequent incorporation into neighbouring municipalities. As a result of the above, there were 26 municipalities whose boundaries were changed post the 3 August 2016 local government elections.

In preparing a response for the Honourable Member, the Departments of Cooperative Governance engaged the 26 affected municipalities through provincial departments responsible for local government.

Reply:

a) Name of project manager – Mr Lyall Welgemoed who was supported by a team of consultants, contractor and a finance person. The allegations that Performance Unlimited absconded from its responsibilities is incorrect, the contracted work was completed.

b) Was the company paid?

Performance Unlimited was paid for work completed.

c) What actions was taken to complete the work?

No actions were required as the said company completed the work as required.

d) What actions was taken to recoup lost monies?

No monies were lost as the funds were accounted for.

e) What efforts were made by her department to complete the unfinished project

This is a historical project which dates back to 2001. The owning entity is the Tyolomnqa Economic Development Trust. The project concept was developed in 2001 from discussions by the Tyolomnqa River Estuary Forum, with interests in the conservation and ecological management of the estuary.

The then Department of Environmental Affairs and Tourism (DEAT) agreed to provide funding of

R 750 000 from the Poverty Relief Grant for the development of a wilderness camp. The original business model was based on eight chalets (4-bed) and four campsites (8-persons per site). This funding was not sufficient to cover the full scope, only seven chalets, the campsite and a boma were completed in 2006. The project was never operational and over time the wilderness camp deteriorated.

The then Department of Environmental Affairs and Tourism granted additional funding of R9.5 million in 2009 to resuscitate the project, refurbish the existing facilities and construct new ones, with the intention of operationalising the project. Performance Unlimited was contracted as the Project Implementer. Performance Unlimited commenced with the work in 2011 whilst awaiting zoning approval. In 2012 they submitted a request for additional funding of R6.3 million to cover the budget short fall.

In 2012 the new Department of Tourism reviewed the additional funding application, conducted a site visit to verify the need for additional funding and also met with the local municipality. The new Department of Tourism was not convinced of the long term sustainability of the project due to a number of reasons including governance and institutional arrangements for the project and the poor access road. The additional funding which was requested in 2012 was not granted and the Department did not continue with the project.

3. The bus company is monitored by the Province through a Supervisory and Monitoring Firm (SMF) appointed by Gauteng Department of Roads and Transport to ensure that the operator complies with all contractual obligations.

Source

Reply:

The South African Reserve Bank referred its report into the collapse of African Bank to the National Director of Public Prosecutions (NDPP) on 17 May 2016. The NDPP requested the Head of the Specialised Commercial Crime Unit (SCCU) to attend to the matter as it fell within the mandate of the SCCU.

In March 2017, in response to Parliamentary Question No. 200, the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) advised that the report was in its final stages of preparation. The prosecutor allocated the matter finalised a comprehensive report wherein he sets out that criminal investigations related to fraud, the Banks Act 94 of 1990 and Companies Act 71 of 2008 were warranted. He therefore recommended that the matter be referred to the South African Police Service for investigation and that a prosecutor be allocated to guide the investigations in the matter. Currently, the matter is under investigation by the Serious Economic Offences Unit of the Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation (DPCI).

Capital Expansion program for Resignalling

(a)(b) (c) (d)(e)

In 2013, PRASA commenced with a 7 year rollout of the new modern signaling system to replace existing signaling interlocking, which consist mainly of obsolete mechanical and electro-mechanical systems, with electronic interlocking as the technology of the future. In the Gauteng region, Stages 1 and 2 have been integrated into one overall programme whose contract was awarded to Siemens at an investment totaling R3.8 billion (exclude inflation). In the Durban and Western Cape regions, the signalling contracts were awarded to Bombardier for R1.3 billion (exclude inflation) and Thales/Maziya for R1.8 billion (exclude inflation), respectively. The overall investment amounts to approximately R7 billion across the three regions.

The scope of work of the signaling programme across the three regions includes the construction of central control centres for trial monitoring and control. Further, the programme includes the installation of new interlocking systems to improve operational capacity, safety and flexibility.

The overall Gauteng signalling work is currently at 48.9 per cent completion against a planned target of 55.9 per cent. The lagging behind against the planned target is due to additional scope of works which include the implementation of the Automatic Train Protection system between Pienaarspoort and Pretoria station in line with the introduction of a new service. To date, 19 (of 92) stations (Midway, Lenz, Lawley, Stretford, Grasmere, Residensia, Irene, Olifantsfontein, Kaalfontein, Leralla, Tembisa, Randfontein, Robinson, Krugersdorp, Luipaardsvlei, Roodepoort, Boksburg East, Dunswart, Benoni) have already been commissioned

The Gauteng Nerve Centre (GNC) building is 100 per cent complete and already operational. The GNC currently operates Irene, Olifantsfontein, Kaalfontein, Leralla and Tembisa Corridor. The Southern line (Midway – Residensia) is next to being migrated to the GNC before the end of the current financial year. In total, eight Centralized Traffic Control Center’s (CTC’s) across Gauteng will be migrated to the GNC. The remaining mini control centres (Pretoria North, Germiston, George Goch, New Canada and Dunswart) will be migrated over a period ahead.

Project expenditure for Gauteng up to October 2017 amounts to R3 billion (including inflation adjustments).

The overall progress in Western Cape is at 68.3 percent completion, which includes design work, ordering of long lead items, pilot installations of signalling and communication, trenching and cable laying and installation of track side equipment for first two phases. The works currently underway and yet to be concluded include the construction of the Cape Metrorail Control Centre (CMCC) at Bellville and the installation of new interlocking systems at various rail lines. In addition, the works currently underway includes telecoms, power supply, OHTE and Perway adjustments across the different railway lines. Project expenditure up to October 2017 amounts to R842 million.

In KwaZulu Natal, the current works of the project includes the establishment of the Durban Central Traffic Control (CTC) at Rossborough and the installation of new interlocking systems from KwaMashu – Durban – Umlazi, Isipingo- Umbogwintini, Pinetown line and Crossmoor line. The overall Signalling work in Kwa-Zulu Natal is at 58.7 percent completion, consisting of detailed designs, track work installations, civil works, ordering of bulk material items and installation of first new point sets and signalling equipment. It is anticipated that the Pinetown line will be commissioned with a new signalling system by the fourth quarter of the current financial year. Project expenditure up to October 2017 amounts to R653 million.

Rehabilitation Program

The above renewal programme is a long term plan that will renew the system once all the projects are completed. In the interim, minor rehabilitation projects and maintenance of the existing system are taking place to ensure continuity of operations while the projects are being rolled out.

The Details of work covered during the 2017/18 financial year covers the following

Replacement of vandalized and stolen signalling system which directly affects train services
Constructive maintenance on worn-out signaling equipment affecting system reliability. Majority of this work is covered by a resignalling program discussed above
Routine maintenance and minor corrective work covered under operational maintenance

The above interventions are aimed sustaining the reliability and safety of the current (old) signalling system; however there remains a backlog of maintenance and repairs. This outstanding work is caused by ongoing theft and vandalism of signalling equipment and lack of human capital to deal with obsolete equipment and constraints in the operational funding for maintenance.

These challenges are addressed through major renewal program discussed above and the capital intervention program (minor rehabilitation projects). The Gauteng signalling rehabilitation amounts to R32.5 mil, KwaZulu Natal amounts to R8mil and Western Cape amounts to R19.5mil. In total the signalling rehabilitation program amounts to R60 mil covering all three regions; the actual spending is R22mil with projects still in execution and planned to be completed by end of the financial year. The outstanding amount of R38mil will be fully utilized by end of the 2017/18 financial year with the completion of the various rehabilitation projects.

Shivambu, Mr F to ask the Minister of Finance

Has he found that South Africa can afford nuclear energy?

Source
Link

Reply:

National Treasury conducted preliminary analysis on the costs and economic impact of a nuclear build on the fiscus and the economy in 2015. This was based on the 2013 pre-feasibility study undertaken by the Department of Energy to procure and build 9.6GW of nuclear generated energy, as per the 2010 Integrated Resource Plan.

With limited information available in the pre-feasibility study, the analysis show that a 9.6GW nuclear programme would have significant implications for national income, South Africa’s total debt burden, international financial position, the balance of payments, for taxpayers and electricity consumers who will bear the full costs of the programme.

The deteriorating fiscal position and increasing fiscal risks, as outlined in the Medium Term Budget Policy Statement makes it harder to finance and/or guarantee a programme of this nature. An accurate assessment of the affordability of the nuclear new build programme needs to be based on a full socio economic cost benefit analysis, which shows the price path, affordability to households, implications for inflation and national income.

Groenewald, Mr HB to ask the Minister of Transport

(a) What steps has been taken by his department to ensure that all (i) metered taxis and (ii) e-hailed taxis are operating legally, (b) what number of the specified taxis were found to be operating illegally in the past three financial years and (c) what are the details of sanctions that were imposed on the illegal taxis?

Source
Link

Reply:

a) On the 19th July 2017 I met with the Minister of Police and the Acting National Commissioner and his team to discuss the state of affairs between the metered taxis and /app-based operators and to propose a more focussed enforcement strategy.

In addition, I met with the MEC for Gauteng Department of Roads and Transport and the MMC’s of the relevant metropolitan municipalities on the 24th July 2017.

Furthermore, I met with the Gauteng Metered Taxi Council, the Concerned Metered Taxi Operators and the app-based operators on the 27th July 2017 in Midrand.

I also arranged a walk-about programme on 11th September 2017 in Sandton to sensitize operators that they must abide by the prescripts of the law which requires them to have a valid operating licence and that there will be no compromise on law enforcement.

b) During the above engagements, the Gauteng Province indicated they have received 6001 applications for e-hailing services as at 15 September 2017. Only 2077 applications were approved and only 1 was rejected. The Gauteng province further indicated that 3923 applications are still pending before the Gauteng Provincial Regulatory Entity (GPRE).

Regarding the metered taxi service, the GPRE received 3326 applications and 1368 of those applications were approved. GPRE also rejected 1958 applications.

During the October month the Province embarked on an outreach program where a total of 1078 applications were received and 162 licences were issued after this program. However, the information changes all the time as the Province is busy processing the licences to assist those who want to comply.

c) The National Land Transport Act, 05 of 2009 creates an offence to anyone who provides a public transport service without the necessary operating licence. If found to be providing public transport services without the licence, the relevant vehicle must be impounded and a determined fine must be paid before the vehicle is released by law enforcement. The fine varies from Province to Province since this power rests with the MECs and it goes up on a second and third offence.

Reply:

a) The bridge has not been repaired yet.

b) A detailed inspection was done in 29 July 2016 by consulting firm Arcus Gibb according to requirements of the Committee of Transport Officials (COTO) of South Africa.

c) The inspection report reported "minor" defects with minimum "relevancy". No repairs were necessary.

d) The 29 July 2016 inspection report was done by consulting firm Arcus Gibb.

e) (i) The report was completed on 31 August 2017.

(ii) The report reflected that an 18.1 ton coil of steel came off a truck and impacted the pier above the protective barrier. The pier complied with the then TPA impact requirements when the bridge was constructed in 1978. The report also highlighted that the large impact was considered an extremely rare occurrence. The report did not deal with why the steel coil came off the truck. The report concluded that the collapse of the bridge was as a result of this impact and not any maintenance issues. All reinforcing and pre-stressing steel was not corroded and lack of maintenance did not lead to the collapse.

(iii) The bridge collapse report was compiled by the consulting firm Superstructures Consulting Engineers.

f) Although the highway is monitored with 24-hour CCTV, these systems cannot detect and warn against a bridge collapse caused by vehicle accident as experienced with this incident.

(a) How is the current tariff system of the National Ports Authority calculated and (b) how does it compare to international tariff systems and structures?

Source
Link

Reply:

(a) The tariffs of the NPA are calculated on the basis of a comprehensive Tariff Methodology based on the widely used internationally best practice Required Revenue approach. The current tariff decision is based on the third tariff methodology published by the Regulator having been aproved and published in March 2017 after a number of rounds of public consultation. See annexure A: Port Tariff Methodology For Tariff Years 2018/19 – 2020/21

The tariff strategy published in July 2015 sets out a transparent and rational approach to an efficient and cost reflective pricing structure. Long term tariff targets are published on an annual basis to increase transparency and stability in the sector and significant progress have been made in the rebalancing of port tariffs on a sustainable basis. The tariff strategy is fairly unique as very few port pricing systems are publicly regulated but does reflect an advanced approach to port infrastructure pricing. Please see Annexure B: Tariff Strategy for the South African Ports System 2015/16.

Reply:

The Department achieved 73% (52/71) of its predetermined objectives in contrast to the 58% achievement stated in the question. Similarly, the Department spent 97.4% (3.9 billion) of its appropriated budget and not the 99% indicated in the question.

Below are the generic reasons that resulted in the non-achievement of some of the planned performance target.

Delays due to prolonged consultative processes.
Compensation budget constraints.
Delays in the submission of compliance documents by the beneficiaries to allow the Department to process payment.
Delays in the procurement processes

The 2016-17 Annual Report contains specific details for each target that was not achieved.

Reply:

a) In terms of public transport strategy the incumbent operators (taxi and bus operators) should be the core of the integrated public transport system. Currently, the Integrated Public Transport Networks (IPTNs) are being operated by the incumbent operators as envisaged in the strategy. In most of the cities minibus taxi are feeding to the trunk or will feed to the trunk once the system is up and running.

b) The system is being rolled out in phases, as a result of that various cities are at different stages in terms of their system roll out.

c) (i) Consultation has taken place with various affected taxi associations and operators

(ii) It is mandatory for municipalities to consult all affected operators (minibus taxi and bus operators) when planning to implement the IPTNs.

d) In some corridors minibus taxi operators withdraw their operations and join the Vehicle Operating Company (VOC), whereas in certain cases minibus taxis remain in operation either as a feeder to the trunk of the public transport system or compete with the public transport system.

Reply:

The SARS systems do not differentiate the various transactions that are subject to VAT in a manner which will allow SARS to identify the VAT transactions for airline tickets separately. It should be noted further that International Airline tickets are charged VAT at 0% as they are exported services.

SARS is therefore unable to provide the data as requested.
