Whether he has found a conflict of interest therein that the owner (name furnished) of the specified company who won the bid was also the Managing Director of the Land Bank Insurance Company at the time that the tender was awarded; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, on what legislative basis did he reach this conclusion; 3. (a) Which division of National Treasury handled the awarding of the specified tender and (b) was the Land Bank involved in any way in awarding the specified tender?
Reply:
1. (a) This was an open tender process for the supply of animal feed to the state, where potential bidders were invited to submit responses in accordance with the special and general conditions of tender. The products had to comply with specific technical specifications to be acceptable. The evaluation criteria was based on submission of mandatory documentation, compliance with technical specifications and price and B-BBEE.
(b) (i) Names of bidders – Refer to attached Bidder’s List Annexure A.
(ii) Contact details – Refer to attached Bidder’s List Annexure A.
(iii) Tendered contract prices – Refer to attached Contract Circular Annexure B.
(iv) Nutritional contents of the animal feeds offered in each case – Refer to Annexure C.
2. At the closing date and time of the bid on 27 May 2016, Mr Adam Maniki Rakgalakane was not in the employ of the Land Bank and therefore there was no conflict of interest. Procedurally the company could not be disqualified.
During the due diligence process conducted on 19 October 2016, Rakgalakane Investments cc declared that one of their directors, Mr Adam Maniki Rakgalakane, had since been appointed by the Land Bank on 10 August 2016. The company undertook to ask Mr Rakgalakane to resign without withdrawing its tender, if their company became successful in the bid process. The Bid Adjudication Committee awarded the tender on 28 October 2016. Rakgalakane Investments was one of the winning bidders.
Prior to communicating the outcome of the tender, National Treasury enquired on the status of Mr Rakgalakane and it was confirmed that a process to have him resigning was underway. Mr Rakgalakane had since resigned.

Boshoff, Ms SH to ask the Minister of Basic Education
(1)(a) Which directorate within her department authorises a certain company (name furnished) to develop the Curriculum Assessment Policy Statements (CAPS) curriculum books into braille and large print, (b) when is this authorisation given and (c) when does an authorisation go out to the specified company to update the CAPS curriculum books in braille and large print in the event of curriculum changes; (2) which was the last year that each visually impaired or blind learner received a book in braille or large print in each subject and in each grade in his or her language since the inception of the CAPS curriculum in the 2012-13 financial year; (3) does her department carry any costs with regard to the funding of key positions at the specified company to allow for the sustainability of the development of CAPS curriculum in braille and large print in the event of alterations to the curriculum; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, what are the relevant details?
Reply:
1. (a)The Learning and the Teaching Support Material (LTSM) Directorate contracted Pioneer Printers as a sole provider to print and deliver braille workbook for visually impaired learners in the 22 schools for the blind. The same company developed braille and Large Print textbooks for Western Cape Education Department schools and took the initiative to braille other textbooks on the National Braille catalogue. Provinces were advised to procure such materials from them.
(b) The authorisation for Braille workbooks has been renewed since 2012.
(c) No changes have been effected in the curriculum that affects the Braille books.
2. The national Catalogue for Braille and Large Print was developed in 2012 and 2013. Provinces incrementally started procuring since the catalogue was developed. This was based on the availability of the finalised material by Pioneer Printers. Yearly, provinces procure top-ups, where applicable and print content using braille embossing machines available at schools. An Information Communication and Technology (ICT) solution has been employed at other schools where textbooks are loaded on braille readers.
3. The National Department does not fund any post at Pioneer Printers. The Western Cape Education Department funds 24 posts at the institution for the development of Braille and Large Print. The Department is engaging with Pioneer Printers, publishers and other stakeholders to find a long term solution to the lack of capacity in the country to develop and print materials in Braille in addition to finding alternative solutions through the use of ICT.

Mashabela, Ms N to ask the Minister of Water and Sanitation
(1)Have any appeals been lodged with her in terms of section 41(6) of the National Water Act, Act 36 of 1998; if not, why not; if so, how many have been (a) lodged and (b) decided; (2) will the Water Tribunal be retained as an appeal authority in the upcoming draft Water and Sanitation Bill; if not, why not?
Reply:
(1) From 2008 to 2017, a total of 414 appeals have been lodged, and 4 decided; 74 withdrawn by appellants.
(2) No. The reason for discontinuation Water Tribunal is that the Water Tribunal is not an efficient, cost effective and speedy mechanism for the resolution of appeals arising from the implementation of the Act. The new Bill seeks to provide for an administrative dispute resolution mechanism which is more efficient, cost effective, and quicker.

9. Western Cape
Foremost, it must be noted that the Western Cape had adopted a commodity approach, which simply means the province have partnered with commodity organisation and State Owned Entity (SOE) for supporting smallholder farmers.
Therefore, procurement of supplies to the projects within the farmer support programmes in the Western Cape is conducted on an individual basis for each farm separately and no framework agreement or transversal tenders exist. Projects are evaluated on individual basis and support packages are designed for each projects based on the needs. This type of supplies normally goes with a support service in terms of technical and mentorship support to the farmer by the supplier’s representative and commodity organizations, which also provide input support through their levies. For that reason suppliers are sourced from the immediate district of the individual farm, so that the best advice and production support can be supplied locally. Such a relationship strengthens the support network of the farmer, but also enhances mentorship support for smallholder farmers.
This procurement takes place based on the SOE procurement policy that is based on the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act (PPPF Act) and Regulations and Treasury prescripts. Amounts are in most cases below R1mill for individual projects. According to the policy for this procurements, 3 quotes are sourced from suppliers and awarded according to the evaluation criteria as in the PPPF Act

Cardo, Dr MJ to ask the Minister of Economic Development
With reference to his statement at the 11th Annual Competition Law, Economics and Policy Conference, which took place from 30 August to 1 September 2017, that South Africa loses about R27 billion of Gross Domestic Product and 76 000 potential jobs every year due to corruption, (a) on what research are these figures based, (b) how were the figures calculated and (c) in which sectors of the economy does the corruption occur?
Reply:
The information on the cost of corruption was based on an economic modeling exercise that sought to quantify the cost of the reduction in real capital spending that results from corruption and the impact on decreased spending in the SA economy on goods and services. While the full extent and thus real costs of corruption is unknown precisely because by its nature it is concealed, a calculation was done based on a scenario where corruption results in a 10% increase in costs; this increase was then modeled into the data-sets to obtain GDP and employment effects.
The purpose of the modeling exercise was to show that corruption is not a ‘victimless’ crime and that the opportunity costs of improperly and unlawfully diverting resources for private gain, comes at a significant cost to economic growth, job creation and service delivery. There is a compelling case for immediate and decisive action against corruption, based on the costs it imposes on the economy, on jobs and on the poor. The results of this modeling exercise were referred to in my speech at the 11th Annual Competition Law, Economics and Policy Conference on 31 August 2017 as well as at other public gatherings and were also shared with the Committees of the Economic Cluster, in Parliament, on 10 October 2017.
During my address to the 11th Annual Competition Law, Economics and Policy Conference on 31 August 2017, I noted the following:
Neither corruption in the public sector (with its private sector counterparties) nor collusion between large firms are victimless crimes. Corruption takes resources away from housing, jobs, social grants, education and health facilities. Collusion increases the costs of doing business, it stunts the dynamism and competitiveness that is needed and it has a negative impact on growth and jobs.
A World Bank study on competition in South Africa noted the following:
“In the case of four cartels in maize, wheat, poultry and pharmaceuticals – products which make up 15.6% of the consumption basket of the poorest 10 percent – conservative estimates indicate that around 200 000 people stood to be lifted above the poverty line by tackling cartel overcharges”.
We recently began doing work to quantify the cost of corruption in the public sector, based on just a 10% increase in the price of infrastructure projects as a result of corruption...Based on our modelling, it leads to at least R27bn foregone annually in GDP and the loss of 76 000 jobs that would otherwise have been created. So corruption is not only an ethical issue, it is also a profound issue of delivery, of growth, of servicesw to the poor.
There are some troubling matters to address in looking at corruption and the collusion therewith by professional firms, from auditors to lawyers and others.
The culture of rampant acquisition is spreading so widely that the professional standards of integrity that is a hallmark of functioning institutions, are under enormous pressure. One of its outcomes is a fraying of the social compact that all societies need and unless we act with resolution, we will not build a society that achieves the vision of the constitution, indeed, we will betray it.
There are things we can do, practical things, while the wider battle to ensure integrity in the public and private sectors, is pursued.
One of the provisions in the Construction industry Settlement Agreement that I referred to earlier, is an Integrity Commitment that CEOs of the seven largest companies signed publicly and I want to briefly quote from it:
“ In my capacity as CEO of [name of company], I do hereby declare and affirm that:
- I will conduct business, and will do everything in my power to ensure that the company and all of its associated companies (‘the Group’) conducts business in South Africa, in accordance with sound legal and ethical practice;
- I will not be involved, and will do everything in my power to ensure that no one in the Group is involved, in any kind of bribery, corruption, collusion or unfair means of furthering our business interests;
- I will do everything in my power to intill a culture of integrity, honesty and transparency in the Group consistent with this declaration
- I will develop and actively promote codes of conduct imposing ethical and legal standards on all personnel in the Group that are aligned with international best practice for the construction industry and impose appropriate penalties on those who don’t comply; and
- I will use my best efforts, and take firm steps, in line with and pursuant to my executive management authority, to expose, confront, eradicate and prevent collusion and corruption in the construction industry and in all the construction industry’s dealings with public entities, private sector institutions and with each other.”

Reply:
I am advised by the CEO of the Industrial Development Corporation of the following details related to the question:
“The total value of the IDC approved loan was R48,5 million for the manufacture of compressed logs targeting mainly the braai and fireplace market. The logs were to be branded as Eco Blaze and manufactured from recycled green waste. There were repayment terms specified for the loan. The loan agreements are structured in line with the cash-flows of the business.
“The Deputy Minister of Public Enterprises, Mr Ben Martins did not play any role in securing the loan for Semona Eco.
“The IDC’s investment decision-making process is such that no single person can take a decision on whether or not to invest in a particular project. This is a decision reserved for various investment committees within the IDC.
“To date the IDC has obtained judgment against Semona Eco and its guarantors. Additional steps taken are listed below:
- we have liquidated Semona Eco;
- we have liquidated Semona Oil (a guarantor);
- laying of criminal charges against Semona Eco & its officials with the Sandton Commercial Crimes Unit of SAPS;
- the listing of Semona Eco and its officials on the list of entities and persons the IDC will not do business with; and
- the institution of sequestration proceedings against Ms Lorraine Masipa (set down for hearing on 30 August 2017).”
