a) (i) (ii) (iii) and (iv) R56 commences just outside of Pietermaritzburg and navigate the eastern region of the KZN province. It consists of various sections of roads which are Main road P5; P416; N2; P609 and traverse the towns of Richmond, Ixopo, Umzimkhulu and Kokstad respectively, R56 then further extends outside the border of the KwaZulu Natal province to Matatiele.

The KwaZulu Natal Department of Transport embarked on an exercise to do Condition Assessment for the Province for the total paved network of approximately 7650 kilometres consisting of provincial and district roads.

Upon completion of the exercise, it was found that 66% of the entire network was not in a good condition. A priority list was deduced based on the severity of defects on the roads and using the limited available funding, rehabilitation measures were implemented.

Route 56 has always been a high priority as it forms part of a link between the provinces of KwaZulu Natal, Eastern Cape and the country of Lesotho and over the years the KZN Department of Transport has done rehabilitation work to ensure safe transition and will continue to plan for maintenance activities accordingly.

b) Whilst 32 kilometers of P609 which is the nearest section of road from the KZN province region to the Eastern Cape boarder, towards Matatiele, it can be confirmed that the rehabilitation plans are only envisaged to commence during the 2020-21 financial year. With the current condition of the road being deemed as poor due to defects related to functionality, the structural capacity of the road is however relevantly sound and poses no risk to the design life of the road or any other unanticipated catastrophic failures. However, holding maintenance measures in a form of patching and pothole repairs where necessary will be conducted on an ongoing basis to ensure safe driving conditions.

Outsourcing is an inherent medical service multiplier. All medical service providers make use of outsourcing to some degree; it is an intrinsic characteristic of the healthcare system. In disciplines where low potential patient numbers can be expected, it makes economic sense to outsource. In some instances, outsourcing is unavoidable. It is, however, true that the figures of medical outsourcing in the SAMHS is high as outsourcing directly coupled to the financial, logistical and human resources of the SAMHS.

The SAMHS will only be able to mitigate and minimise the outsourcing of critical medical services if the total healthcare system could be addressed through an adequate budget allocation. The total healthcare system includes inter alia the replacement of redundant medical technology and medical equipment, filling of all vacant post for healthcare practitioners and critical support staff such as ambulance drivers, the comprehensive refurbishment of military hospitals and other military healthcare facilities and sufficient funds for medical consumables and pharmaceuticals. For a healthcare system to function optimally, all elements (qualified and skilled personnel, suitable equipment/technology, suitable facilities and sufficient budget) must be present. The absence of any of these elements must inevitably result in outsourcing.

Initial steps to address the challenges are being quantified through the Defence Review implementation planning team as part of the implementation milestone 1: Arresting the decline.

Reply:

National Treasury’s (NT) final letter of allocation dated 6 February 2017 to the Department of Defence (DOD) confirmed the total allocation towards the payment of compensation for the FY2017/18 Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) period and has been reduced by R5.5 billion.

Parliament has not reduced the operational commitments of the SANDF and therefore the SANDF cannot withdraw from external and internal deployments without Cabinet approval. It can also not reduce the number of personnel due to the fact that operational commitments will have to be discontinued.

(a) What is the total vacancies that currently exists in each branch of the SANDF?

In the light of the above the DOD maintains its HR strength as on 1 April 2017 (76,645) for the FY2017/18 that resulted in a projected over-expenditure of Rb1,4. These challenges were communicated to NT in numerous communique as well as the monthly Early Warning report. Therefore the DOD does not have vacant funded posts but 29,428 vacant unfunded posts.

(b) What are the salary levels of the specified vacancies?

These vacancies exist in all levels in the DOD, military and civilian.

(c) What amount in remuneration packages will be needed to fill the vacancies?

It will cost the DOD approximately Rb10 to fill these vacancies.

2. Only one (1) official had a business transaction with an organ of state (Agriculture Research Council) and (a) the purpose of that business transaction was the supply of tissue paper (b) this transaction took place in the 2015/16 and (c) the value of the business transaction was R585.00.

Question 1a.

What were goods and services with a transaction value of more than R500 000 procured through an unfair competitive bidding process in contravention of the National Treasury Regulations 16A3.2 (a) and (b):

Response

The goods and services related to this audit finding is the Through Life Capability Management (TLCM) Implementation Project.

Question 1(b)

What consequence management was applied in this instance?

Although the decisions were taken by a project team and bidding committee level, the process advisors should have underscored the ambiguity of section 5 of the SCM Practice Note No 3 of 2003, to inform consultation with National Treasury prior to award. In this regard Director Matériel Governance, Risk and Compliance was held responsible for this irregular expenditure and was given a letter of admonishment because there was no display of malicious intent or intentional deviation from the process.

(1) A case of fraud is being investigated. The Investigating Officer made contact with the person who completed the 3M(a), Preamble to Statement and the 3M(b), A1 Statement, as attached in the case docket, which provide information on the complainant. This person promised to identify someone who will assist the Investigating Officer. To date, this information has not been brought forward.

The A1 statement was submitted by an advocate, who is currently in the United States of America (USA) and the statement was not made under oath. The Investigating Officer also visited the church, which is the object of the dispute, to conduct further investigation.

The Investigating Officer will again approach the abovementioned person, to assist him in the investigation of the case.

(2) No, a statement will not be made on the matter.

Question 1a.

Why were certain contracts extended or modified without the approval of a properly delegated official as stipulated by National treasury Instruction Note 32

Response

In terms of Paragraph 3.3 of the National Treasury Practice Note 5 of 2009/2010 for SITA procurements of goods and services the procurement officer obtained a letter from SITA giving the DOD permission to continue to procure on its own as one of the options. SITA response was deemed sufficient proof that SITA as an organ of the Minister of DPSA is officially delegated to approve such authority. Taking into account the aforementioned, an additional approval was not obtained from the Minister of DPSA nor any other official from DPSA.

Question 1b.

What consequence management was applied in this instance?

Based on the process that was followed and that SITA gave the DOD the option to procure using the DOD procurement process, no DOD member was held liable for the irregular expenditure.

1. ) It is not clear from the question what is meant by ranks of service providers. The rank system in the department applies only to current and former members of the SANDF. In addition, given the large and varied scope of the procurement services in the Departments and its entities, it will be better if the question specified the category of services or goods in terms of which information is required over the past five years

In the main the implementation of the National Solar Water Heater (SWH) Programme has been delayed by the need to and meetings, and agree with critical stakeholders such as the municipalities.

1) (a) Following the consultation referred to in (1) above, collaboration with participating municipalities has now been formalised through the signing of Municipal Framework Agreements.

(b) The Department convened consultative meetings with the following municipalities:

• Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality (on 03/03/2017);
• Ventersdorp/Tlokwe Local Municipality (on 30/03/2017);
• Bitou Local Municipality (on 09/05/2017);
• uMgungundlovu District Municipality (on 13/11/2017);and
• eThekwini Metropolitan Municipality (on 14/11/2017).

(c) The meetings resolved that:

• Municipalities will:

• Select and propose to the Department the areas in which SWHs will be installed;
• Identify government owned warehouses that are in close proximity to the installation areas;
• Submit databases of job-seekers that reside within, or are closer to, the targeted beneficiary communities; and
• Fast-track the outstanding Municipal Framework Agreements (where applicable).
• The Department will send to the municipalities the technical standards, specification and requirements which will apply to the SWH(s) that are compatible with the climatic conditions of the Designated Installation Areas(s).

3) The municipalities are willing to participate in the Programme particularly because the targeted households are in the main low income segments who also benefit from free basic energy programmes.

4) Most municipalities that the Department has engaged to date have demonstrated capacity to support the programme in accordance with the municipal obligations contained in the Municipal Framework Agreement. For example, some municipalities have provided the Department with the list of installation areas as well as the database of job-seekers, The Department continues to consult and support municipalities that are lagging behind in terms of fulfilling their obligations.

(1) Yes the Department gave permission for the removal of a Mig-21 jet fighter from the Air Force Museum. The aircraft was not donated but returned back to its original owners since it belongs to the Angolans.

(a) The Aircraft was not donated but returned back to the Angolans, this is evident in the history of the Aircraft.

(b) Yes all legal requirements were met since all necessary documentation including necessary authority for the movement of Arms across the boarders was acquired from the Arms Control Board as regulated.

(c) There was no need to contact the SA Heritage Resource Agency for equipment that does not belong to the country since the aircraft belongs to the Angolans and was just returned back to its original owners.

BRIEF HISTORY OF THE AIRCRAFT

On 14 December 1989 a Mig-21 Bis Fishbed serial number C340 of the Angolan Air Force flown by Lieutenant Domingos José de Almeida Vinez took off from the airfield at Lubango on a routine ferry flight from Lubango to the airfield at Menogue. The aircraft climbed to altitude on a general heading of 90 degrees magnetic.

On a number of occasions, the aircraft entered clouds and upon regaining visual contact with the ground, the Pilot was no longer able to orientate himself as to his position. After a while he elected to divert to Cuito Cuanavale. Continuing on his present course, the aircraft began giving the pilot a low fuel warning at which time, he elected to attempt an emergency landing.

After preparing the aircraft for the forced landing, he selected an open field and executed a near perfect “normal” landing near Otjiwarongo in South West Africa (Namibia) and the aircraft sustained only minor damage. The Mig-21 bis was then taken by the South African government and is presently at the SAAF Museum.

The Apartheid South Africa cannot claim any historical war significance to this Air Craft for the following reason: (1) The Air Craft was not captured during the border War between South Africa and Angola, as this was during the UN resolution 435 of Namibia which was adopted on 01 April 1989, with called for the withdrawal of South African forces from Namibia, the cease fire agreement and the establishment of the UN supervised elections, i.e. United Nations Transitional Assistance Group (UNTAG).

Yes, a meeting was held with the Minister of Justice and officials regarding the implementation of the Financial Intelligence Amendment Act, which included a discussion on the consultative mechanisms to replace Counter Money Laundering Advisory Council. At the meeting it was agreed that an Inter-Departmental Anti-Money Laundering and Combating the Financing of Terrorism Forum be set up to operate initially, to improve the quality of consultation for implementation, after which we will consider how best to legislate such consultation forums.

The mandate of the Committee would be to promote discussion, collaboration and coordination between the relevant law enforcement agencies, government departments and regulatory authorities to ensure that the South African authorities are more effective in implementing both the spirit and letter of the complete legal framework against money laundering and terrorist financing. In addition, a consultative structure to facilitate engagements with accountable institutions in the private sector is also being established, with a Banking Sector AML/CFT Steering Committee already having been established. Treasury has published a consultation document to seek public comments on these new consultation mechanisms We will monitor how well these consultation forums work over the year or two, and thereafter make a decision on how best to formalize the consultation forums.

There is therefore no intention to legislate for the continuation of the CMLAC, as we want to deepen and improve our consultative mechanisms to strengthen implementation. The CMLAC played a significant role in the drafting of the initial regulations of the FIC Act when it was first enacted in 2003, but was not as effective as a forum for implementation. This was pointed out in the explanatory memo of the Amendment Bill when it was tabled in Parliament in 2015.

1.The details are outlined below.

a) The process followed to appoint Dr Ingrid Tufvesson to the SANEDI Board is the process outlined in section 8(2) of the Nuclear Energy Act.

b) The National Energy Act does not specify any particular criteria that must be met to fill the Chairpersonship, save for the requirement contained in section 8(9), which states that a Board member must have a relevant qualifications and experience or special knowledge.

c) The National Energy Act does not require the SANEDI Board Chairperson to hold specialist energy-related qualifications. However, the Department is confident that Dr Tufvesson possesses the necessary skill and experience to provide effective strategic leadership to the SANEDI Board and the organisation.

2. The position was not advertised, as it is not a specific requirement of the National Energy Act that this must take place.

3. Yes, the consultation with the Minister of Science and Technology was not specific to the Chairperson but rather to the Board as a whole as required by the National Energy Act.

DEPARTMENT OF MILITARY VETERANS

DMV strives to pay suppliers within 30 days. There was no recorded outstanding payment to SMMEs as at 31 October 2017. However, for well established companies, there is still a challenge with processing some of the invoices due to the following challenges at DMV:

• DMV is not yet using LOGIS (Logical Information System)
• Lack of a computerized system leads to lack of proper tracking system
• For travel related invoices, approvers are often out office leading to delays in the approval of invoices for payment (linked to manual approval processes).
• Lack of capacity to manage the volume of invoices related to Travel

As per the tablelink  below (DMV UNPAID INVOICES AS AT 31 OCTOBER 2017), challenging accounts are Vodacom, Travel with Flair and SITA. The challenge is historical backlog, however, the Department is working hard to resolve these.

http://pmg-assets.s3-website-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/RNW3566DMV_UNPAID.pdf

Furthermore, as at 30 September 2017, DMV account with other Government Departments had an outstanding balance of R60.5m mainly related provisioning of healthcare Support by SAHMS (R50.5m) as well as the provisioning of Housing by Human Settlement (R10m). see link below

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENCE

1. The response for the Department of Defence is as follow:

 (i) The number of verified and legitimate invoices that are currently (Report date: 8 Nov 2017) in possession and that remain unpaid within the Department of Defence are:

Ser	Category	Nr of Invoices	Rand Value
(aa)	More than 30 Days	30	R1,344,559
(bb)	60 Days	0	R0
(cc)	90 Days	5	R14,683
(dd)	120 Days	11	R17,531
	TOTAL NR OF INVOICES	46	R1,376,773

The main reasons for these invoices not paid relates to the invoices being received late and then the processes to verify the correctness forces the invoices into the category of more than 30 days. Invoices in the categories of 90 to 120 days mostly relates to invoices where the verification process to confirm legitimacy takes longer due to disputes and geographical location of some units. It remains critical that all controls are continuously exercised to ensure that only verified legitimate invoices are paid.

MILITARY OMBUD

The Office of the Military Ombud has one (1) invoice under Item 20, Serial Number 20018925 (Food & Drinks: Office and Meetings) valued at R15,667.80 that has not been paid for more than sixty (60) days.

Following the report of the Medical Task Team appointed by the Minister and the subsequent acceptance of all its recommendations, there has been much improvement in addressing the Human Resources challenges at the SAHMS

1. (a) The loss of scarce skills at 1 Military Hospital are managed as a critical issue in the SAMHS. Bilateral meetings have taken place between the SAMHS and the Human Resource Division to ensure the appointment of healthcare practitioners, especially medical officers and specialists.

(b) Collaboration has taken place between the SAMHS and staff of the Human Resources Division to address processes and procedures. The agreements are being enforced and the initial delays in appointment of the capability had been successfully addressed.

2. The occupational service dispensation (OSD) has been fully implemented at 1 Military Hospital in line with the prescripts of the Department of Public Service Administration after a comprehensive audit was performed on the personal files of all healthcare practitioners in the SAMHS.

3. The commuted overtime of medical professionals in the SAMHS are aligned to that of the Department of Health.

4. (a) It is argued that the current status of OSD and commuted overtime do not have an impact on the loss of medical professionals in the SAMHS as application of the OSD and commuted overtime are applied according to the prescripts and procedures that are followed for the National Department of Health.

(b) The lack or unavailability of specialized medical equipment does impact on the recruitment and retention of medical professionals for utilisation in the military hospitals.

(c) As was indicated in Question 3389 1 b the appointment process of medical doctors had been streamlined. Flexible arrangements had been agreed upon to facilitate and are enforced to ensure the speedy appointment of especially medical officers and specialists.

The Civilian Secretrariat for Police Service (CSPS) has not awarded any contract to any company, nonprofit organisation or individual consultant to facilitate the public consultation process for the White Paper on Saftey & Security.

A consultant has been contracted by an International Development Partner, the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ), to provide technical assistance to the Civilian Secretariat to draft an implementation framework and related outputs for the White Paper on Safety and Security. The focus of this consultant’s assignment is research, which is complemented by a process of engagements accross different government sectors and spheres and with relevant civil society and academic role-players active in the violence and crime prevention sector.

The GIZ support to the CSPS is being provided in the framework of the ongoing South African-German cooperation programme on violence and crime prevention, the German contribution to which is implemented on behalf of the German government by GIZ. The programme is part of the bilateral cooperation between the two countries.

1. The consultant’s name is Ms. Melanie Lue-Dugmore
2. The value of the contract between GIZ and the consultant is up to a maximum of R280.000. GIZ is covering the costs of professional fees, while the Civilian Secretariat is covering the travel and accommodation costs of the consultant during the performance of the assignment.  
3. The contract period is from 18 August 2017 to 31 March 2018.
4. The services of the consultant were procured by GIZ strictly in line with its standard procurement rules and regulations. The contract was awarded directly on the grounds of cost efficiency and highly suitable expertise based on the fact that the consultant had previously played an instrumental role in the development of the White Paper on Safety and Security as part of the team from the Consortium on Crime and Violence Prevention, which had originally been contracted by the Civilian Secretariat to assist in the drafting of the White Paper.
