NB: During the 2014/15 financial year, public servants were not prohibited from conducting business with the organs of the State, provided that they obtained permission from the executive authority to perform other remunerative work outside employment in the public service. The Department could therefore not take corrective action against any of the officials listed above for conducting business with organs of state. Furthermore, it should be noted that the Department relies on the Office of the Auditor-General in respect to the amounts of the transactions/contracts.

The bacterium causing Bovine Tuberculosis (BTb) is an intracellular bacteria, mainly residing in the lungs and associated tissues. In South Africa, it is maintained primarily in cattle, with specific populations of buffalo and kudu also acting as maintenance hosts, with spill over into various other wildlife species, including lions in those specific areas been documented (including the greater Kruger Complex and Hluhluwe Imfolozi Game Reserve). The disease is under state veterinary (Department of Agriculture) control and there is currently an active test and slaughter policy for BTb in cattle. In addition, certain wildlife areas and properties in the country are also identified as being BTb infected, and are therefore placed under quarantine. All animal movement out of such areas are subject to 2 negative Tb tests. If lions are hunted in an area that is infected with BTb, then those hunts and processing of the trophies/skins thereof will be under strict state veterinary supervision. These carcasses will remain on the infected farm and be inspected by the state vet and disposed of appropriately. All BTb infected properties and areas will need to have in place a risk assessment and management plan for mitigating disease transmission (including to humans) that have been approved by the Department of Agriculture. For any further details on the research relating to this matter, the National Department of Agriculture would be in a better position to respond.

The Public Protector's Report entitled State of Capture only makes inconclusive observations and does not make any findings against any person. The Report calls for further investigations of the allegations. As the Honourable Member may be aware, I have instituted review proceedings against the remedial action of the Public Protector and the matter is provisionally set down for a hearing in Court from 24 - 26 October 2017. A proper investigation on these allegations will be conducted once the Court has clarified the contentious issues.

I would like to reiterate the Government's position that any person, including the authors of the reports referred to in the Honourable Member’s question, who have information about any wrongdoing by any individual to inform the law-enforcement agencies so that investigations can be undertaken. 

It is my considered view that this is the proper and lawful way to deal with all the allegations of unlawful conduct.

The position on virtual or crypto-currencies is that they are currently not regulated (they operate without the authority of central banks). An alert to this effect was issued jointly by the National Treasury, the South African Reserve Bank (SARB), the Financial Services Board (FSB), the South African Revenue Service (SARS) and the Financial Intelligence Centre (FIC) on 18 September 2014 (attached Annexure A - available on www.treasury.gov.za), which cautioned members of the public to be aware of the risks associated with the use of virtual currencies for either transactions or investment. As noted, the relevant authorities continue to monitor and assess the use of virtual currencies and consult with private sector stakeholders in this regard. Further guidance or regulations may be issued, should the need arise.

While the above position still applies, the National Treasury together with the SARB, FIC, and FSB have also established an Intergovernmental Fintech Working Group in December 2016, to develop an approach and potential revised policy stance towards fintech, including crypto-currencies, and to deal with fast-emerging fintech matters in the financial sector, like crowdfunding, robo-advice, machine learning and alternate payment platforms. A balanced approach is being taken, which is supportive of the objectives of enhanced innovation, competition and financial inclusion in the financial sector, while also reviewing risks related to financial customer protection, money laundering and financial stability.

Security services at SARS are paid for by SARS and not by the state. Only threat and risk assessments are borne by SAPS as part of police services.

(i) SARS is a critical institution tasked with revenue collection. Due to the nature of its mandate it is vital that the Commissioner and some SARS employees, who by virtue of their roles, who are threatened or deemed to be threatened by individuals or syndicates under investigation, are provided with personal protectors. The current Commissioner including previous SARS Commissioners have all been allocated protective service for this reason.

The Commissioner of the South African Revenue Service, Mr Tom Moyane does have Protective Service Officers allocated to him.

1. The table link below indicates the number of aircraft in SAA fleet, models thereof and years in service. The domestic network is serviced by the narrow-bodies and international network by the wide-bodies. All aircraft in SAA fleet are operable.

https://pmg.org.za/files/RNW1947TABLE-170720.pdf

2. The aircraft have adequate range and capacity to meet the SAA Network demand. The biggest challenge on the wide body fleet is that SAA still operates the A340 fleet, which on average are now 12 years old. These four-engines aircraft are expensive to operate and maintain.

3. SAA currently has some spare capacity in wide-body (long range) aircraft. This is due to the entry of the 5x A330-300 new aircraft. However, SAA will have to return 2x A340-600s at the end of lease in July and August 2017), at which time some of the excess wide-body capacity will be removed.

1. (a) (b) (i) (ii)

The Minister of CoGTA is not aware of any adjustments undertaken by MECs in their provinces, in respect to the powers and functions of municipalities, since his appointment in December 2015.

In terms of Section 85 of the Local Government: Municipal structures Act No 117 of 1998, the MEC for local government in a province may, subject to the other provisions, adjust the division of functions and powers between a district and a local municipality as set out in section 84 (1) or (2), by allocating, within a prescribed policy framework, any of those functions or powers vested in the local municipality, to the district municipality; or in the district municipality (excluding a function or power referred to in section 84 (1) (a), (b), (c), (d), (i), (o) or (p), to the local municipality.

Here, it must be noted that the MEC has no legal obligation to consult the Minister on the adjustment of powers and functions of a municipality his/her province. Section 85 of the Local Government: Municipal Structures Act No 117 of 1998, empowers the MEC of Local Government to adjust functions and powers of municipalities without any legal requirements for the MEC to consult the Minister.

(2) In terms of Section 85 (5) of the Municipal Structures Act, in the event that the MEC disagrees with the MDB on the capacity of the municipality to receive the function, and refuses to adjust the division, contrary to the assessment of the MDB, the MEC must then furnish reasons to the relevant municipalities and the Minister, before finalising a proposed adjustment.

Therefore, the Minister will only be aware of the MDB assessment that is informing an adjustment, if there is a disagreement between the MEC and MDB on the matter.

The municipality is finalizing a model of commercialization that would assist the stadium to enhance revenue and move towards self-sustainability.

(v) Over time Moses Mabhida Stadium has built up an excellent reputation with a range of promoters and event organisers who love working with the stadium and city team. The city of Durban, KZN provincial government (along with KZN Tourism and Durban Tourism) and the stadium have secured a vibrant mix of major events over time eg Top Gear Festival, SA v India cricket match, PSL football fixtures, AFCON, international football fixtures eg Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool Legends, SA A v French Barbarians rugby match and a variety of concerts and music festivals for the stadium and People’s Park.

Other events hosted by this multi-purpose stadium include International U19 football tournament, Amashova and Tour Durban cycle races, triathlon, marathons, Jump City, Nitro Circus Live, Red Bull Unlocked skateboarding, craft beer festival, Shisanyama festival, Fact Durban Rocks, East Coats Radio Durban Day and Big Walk, I Heart Market, political rallies, church concerts and services, memorial services. Many of these events are hosted at the stadium on an annual basis some for more than 5 years now.

Usage is from three main sources as this stadium which is different in that it has a retail area and tourist attractions plus an adjacent park with kid’s playground and café which operate 7 days a week. This creates revenue streams as follows:
1. Bowl events in the stadium

2. Non-bowl events in other stadium venues and People’s Park

3. Retail tenant rental income and attractions income (SkyCar, Stadium Tours, Adventure Walk).

The stadium has a permanent staff compliment of 141 people in the following departments: Finance, Procurement, HR, Operations (Maintenance, Assets, Landscaping, Safety and Security) and Commercial (Retail, Marketing, Event Services). On event days we draft in temporary staff for cleaning, security and hospitality and create almost 10 000 job opportunities per annum.

Our policy does not prescribe a minimum waiting period as per the honourable member’s question because the allocation of a house to a qualifying beneficiary depends primarily on the completion of a housing project. However, our National Housing Needs Register indicates that the waiting period in the past fluctuated between 6 to 11 years on average. I am confident that as provinces and municipalities continue to improve the planning and packaging of projects, the waiting period will be minimised.

Further, this is one of the reasons that, during my budget vote speech on 18 May 2017, I indicated that the one-track system of building is no longer sustainable. We need to adopt a multi-pronged approach together with provinces and municipalities because time is not on our side. We are now concentrating on servicing sites and partitioning them so that people can build their own houses through a monitored PHP programme.

I have been informed by SITA as follows:

SITA has instituted a process to ensure that all system flaws identified are remediated (patch management) by implementing the latest operating system and application software updates on all workstations and servers installed and maintained by SITA to prevent any known security breaches.

 (a) Updates are verified by conducting bi-weekly vulnerability assessment scans in consultation with the various service environments to update operating system and application software (code changes) where deemed necessary. Where updates are released by the suppliers of the software, it is also implemented after it has been tested.

 (b) The environment is audited by the SITA Internal Audit by conducting vulnerability assessments and penetration testing. This is complimented by external penetration testing on an ad hoc basis. Furthermore, the Auditor-General also performs penetration testing and vulnerability scans on a selected sample of the infrastructure installed and maintained by SITA on an annual basis.

According to the information received from the Sector Education and Training Authorities (SETAs), cases in which grant recipients did not deliver training services in return for their grants were reported from the following six SETAs:

Energy and Water SETA (EWSETA)

1. (a) There was one case in which the grant recipient did not deliver training services in return for their grant received.

(b) None.

(c) None.

2. A forensic investigation was commissioned and is still in progress.

3. The grant recipient did not receive any further grants.

4. EWSETA ensures that projects are granted to accredited service providers, who have a database of learners to be trained. Such providers must also ensure that workplaces for the placement of learners are available.

Insurance SETA (INSETA)

1. (a) None.

(b) There were 3 cases in which grant recipients did not deliver training services in return for their grants received.

(c) None.

2. INSETA reported one matter to the Hawks for investigation but since the latter has stopped pursuing the matter, a criminal case will be opened with the SAPS Commercial Crimes Unit. On the second matter, INSETA issued a letter of demand and settlement has been agreed upon with the grant recipient. On the third matter involving internships, INSETA has opened a case with SAPS and the matter is under investigation.

3. The grant recipients did not receive any further grants.

4. ISETA will conduct an evaluation of worksites for grant applicants before offering any grants.

Manufacturing, Engineering and Related Services SETA (MERSETA)

1. (a) There were 77 cases in which grant recipients did not deliver training services in return for their grants received.

(b) There were 232 cases in which grant recipients did not deliver training services in return for their grants received.

(c) There were 438 cases in which grant recipients did not deliver training services in return for their grant received.

2. MERSETA uses its Memoranda of Understanding (MOU) to address non-delivery issues. Since the SETA signs the MOU with training providers, wherein it is stated that payments will be done in tranches on the achievement of agreed deliverables. The MOU also states that the SETA reserves the right to withhold any payment or seek refunds of monies paid related to any tranche where learning programmes have not been delivered as agreed.

3. MERSETA adheres to its Grant Policy in the allocating of grants and deals with each case based on its merit. Some grant recipients default in implementing certain training programmes while they successfully implement others. In cases where the grant recipient fails to deliver, the SETA offsets payments on subsequent funding. However, in the absence of any possible subsequent funding, such grant recipients are issued with invoices to repay the grant allocation.

4. MERSETA has seven regional and three satellite offices, staffed with Client Liaison Officers and Quality Assurers who monitor the quality of training implemented.

Mining Qualifications Authority (MQA)

1. (a) There was one case in which the grant recipient did not deliver training services in return for their grant received.

   (b) There was one case in which the grant recipient did not deliver training services in return for their grant received.

   (c) None.

2. The contract was cancelled and part of the money was recovered. Legal action is in progress to recover the remaining money.

3. The grant recipients did not receive any further grants.

4. MQA has established a committee that reviews applications and conducts due diligence assessments prior to the signing of contracts. Furthermore, the SETA has established a Risk, Monitoring and Evaluation unit that does the physical verification of the learners and training after contracts have been signed and before payments are made.

Safety and Security SETA (SASSETA)

1. (a) There were 11 cases in which grant recipients did not deliver training services in return for their grants received.

(b) None.

(c) None.

2. The affected learners were transferred to other training providers.

3. The grant recipients did not receive any further grants.

4. SASSETA has revised its Discretionary Grant Policy and Grant Standard Operating Procedures. Before a grant is awarded, SASSETA conducts due diligence on prospective recipients and reviews the recipients past track record.

Transport Education and Training Authority (TETA)

1. (a) There were 18 cases in which grant recipients did not deliver training services in return for their grants received.

(b) There were 13 cases in which grant recipients did not deliver training services in return for their grants received.

(c) There were 17 cases in which grant recipients did not deliver training services in return for their grants received.

2. Contracts for affected recipients were cancelled and funds were reallocated to other performing training providers.

3. TETA has established that some recipients had capacity challenges and some had valid reasons for the delays. Recipients with capacity challenges were subjected to a capacity building intervention and those with valid reasons for delays were reconsidered, thus affording them an opportunity to implement training programmes in the following financial year.

4. TETA has introduced more stringent due diligence procedures to ensure that all applicants have capacity to implement awarded projects. TETA also checks the track record of the applicant’s performance in implementing past awarded projects.

SETAs have put various plans and measures in place to ensure that grant recipients deliver on their training commitments, such as amongst others:

• The Service Level Agreement entered with training providers in which the latter is obliged to deliver on the promise to provide training;
• Training providers must submit proof that training has taken place before the grant is paid.
• Training providers are paid based on the submission of a report and deliverables having been achieved; and
• Implementation of project management and monitoring systems.

(1) (a) The findings emanating from the forensic investigation consisted mainly of potential fraudulent transactions, irregular and fruitless expenditure, lack of systems and internal controls, misconduct by senior personnel, as well as non-adherence to policies and procedures including supply chain management.

(b) The forensic investigation was conducted and paid for by the Department of Higher Education and Training.

(c) The Department requested the investigating company to focus on the following areas:

• • Financial misconduct;
  • Provincial goods and services funding;
  • Subsistence and Travel of the former Principal and Chief Financial Officer;
  • Procurement and payments in respect of the site and the construction of the Harrismith Campus;
  • Procurement and payments in respect of the Rosedale farm and improvements made on it;
  • Procurement and payments to suppliers for the construction of the main campus in QwaQwa and at the Bethlehem SSS Centre;
  • MFC Academic bank account (Maluti MFC Business Intervention Training) and all transactions with regard to the Maluti football club;
  • Various procurement transactions; and
  • Transactions relating to Kgalapa Training Institution CC “satellite” campus.

(2) (a) The forensic reports were received by the Department on 27 October 2014.

(b) The forensic reports have not been provided to the Council.

(c) It should be noted that the Department did not share the report with the Council because the High Court of South Africa ruled in a similar matter in terms of an investigation performed at the Eastcape Midlands Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) College, as being an unlawful administrative action by the Department in terms of the Promotion of Administrative Justice Act 3 of 2000 (PAJA). It also ruled that the sharing of the report with the Council or any third party is prohibited.

As the Maluti TVET College investigation was conducted on the same basis as the Eastcape Midlands TVET College, the findings of that Court ruling would also apply to the Maluti report.

(3) Not applicable.

(4) The Council was not requested to respond, as they were not provided with the report. However from an administrative point of view, the systems and internal controls at Maluti TVET College has improved over the last two financial years. The audit outcomes have improved from a disclaimer in 2014/15 to qualified in 2015/16 and unqualified in 2016/17 with the assistance of a new Chief Financial Officer and Principal. The second intervention was the start of disciplinary action against implicated officials in terms of the Labour Relations Act; however, senior management implicated namely the former Principal and Chief Financial Officer, resigned and retired respectively.
