Reply:
a. (i) The performance of all the Department’s entities is reviewed (evaluated) on a regular basis.
(ii). similarly, the department conducts implementation reviews (evaluation) on its programmes and projects on regular basis through project in-year reviews and oversight visits with intention to improve operational effectiveness and efficiency. The flags in every school programme and the library conditional grants are some of the programmes that were recently reviewed. Furthermore, the Department has established the South African Cultural Observatory (SACO) to conduct mapping studies and other studies on cross cutting issues on the arts, culture and heritage sector. Twenty (20) research reports were produced in the 2016-17 financial year. Another 27 research reports are envisaged in the 2017-18 financial year. Moreover, the Department conducts 5-year reviews that focus on a range of issues relating to the operations of the Department including performance. The last review was conducted in the 2014-15 financial year. The next 5-year review will be conducted during 2018-19 financial year and will focus on the period 2015-2019.
b. (i). The Department conducts regular oversight visits, with the focus more on entities that are not performing well. The purpose of these visits is to assist the entities with the implementation of turnaround plans. Moreover, a number of forums have been established to facilitate monitoring and evaluation of public entities and to share best practices. These include the chairperson’s forum, where the Minister and the Chairpersons of Councils/Boards engage on issues affecting the public entities.
(ii). In cases of unsatisfactory programme and/or project performance, a diagnosis exercise is conducted to ascertain the reasons for poor performance. Findings emanating from the diagnosis exercise are used to improve the design and implementation of the programme and/or project. The Technical Intergovernmental Committee (TIC) and MinMEC are some of the platforms the Department has established to review and correct poor performing projects that are done in collaboration with provinces.
c. (i). Guided by the audit outcomes of the Auditor-General (AG), 11 DAC public entities received qualified audit outcomes and this highlighted shortcomings in their control systems. In most cases the shortcomings related to the accounting of heritage assets as specified in the GRAP 103 standard. The Ditsong Museums of South Africa and the South African State Theatre got adverse and disclaimer audit outcomes, respectively, thus highlighting a collapse in their control systems.
(ii). In the 2016-17 financial year there has been delays in the implementation of the following projects: Liberation Heritage Route online map application; refurbishment of the community arts centres and a series of infrastructure projects ( legacy project); the Khoi San Heritage Route; and the Liberation Heritage Route.

Boshoff, Ms SH to ask the Minister of Basic Education
Whether the sub-committee monitoring the policy on learner pregnancy has been established; if not, why not; if so, has any report been submitted by this sub-committee?
Reply:
The sub-committee monitoring the Draft Policy on the Prevention and Management of Learner Pregnancy has not yet been established. The Policy does make provision for the establishment of the sub-committee, however, only after it has been finalised and approved. Recommendations from the current consultations held with key stakeholders on the policy advocate for a multi-sectoral sub-committee that would include Department of Health, Department of Social Development and various developmental agencies. The DBE will mobilise for the said organisations to be represented on the sub-committee as the consultations continue with them.

The Department is constantly engaging with these Metros to ensure that all sites are connected as per the agreed plans. The process to appoint WiFi service providers for both Metros is underway.

What was the total amount in rand spent by the (a) Estate Agency Affairs Board, (b) Social Housing Regulatory Authority, (c) National Housing Builders Registration Council, (d) Housing Development Agency, (e) National Urban Reconstruction and Housing Agency, (f) Rural Housing Loan Fund, (g) Community Schemes Ombud Service and (h) her department on gifts, donations and sponsorships, including the (i) full names of the beneficiaries and (ii) reasons in each of the past three financial years?
Reply:
Honourable member, from the onset I wish to bring to your attention the document titled, “Guide to Parliamentary Questions in the National Assembly”, which prohibits Members of Parliament, including the Executive, from divulging names of persons, bodies when asking or responding to parliamentary questions. This document states the following:
“Questions are to be framed as concisely as possible. All unnecessary adjectives, references and quotations are omitted. Names of persons, bodies and, for example, newspapers are only used in questions if the facts surrounding the case have been proven. As the mere mention of such names could be construed as publicity for or against them, it should be clear that this practice is highly undesirable. If a question will be unintelligible without mentioning such names, the Departments concerned are notified of the name (-s) and this phrase is used: ".......a certain person (name furnished)”
Accordingly, in the reply below, I will not provide names of persons or bodies for whom gifts were bought or donations/sponsorship given to.
Further, in the reply provided below we include purchases of flowers for staff members who are hospitalised and their bereaved families, which does not necessarily qualify to be regarded as gifts. The Department also purchases gifts when the Minister meets with foreign delegations or her counterparts.

Mackenzie, Mr C to ask the Minister of Telecommunications and Postal Services
(1) Why has the implementation of the Rapid Deployment Guidelines, inserted into the National Integrated ICT Policy White Paper, been delayed until after March 2019; (2) has a study been conducted by her department to determine (a) the impact of this delay on broadband rollout across government jurisdictions and (b) the knock-on effect of the delay on the cost to communicate and in rolling out South Africa Connect; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details in each case?
Reply:
I have been advised by the department as follows:
1. When the Electronic Communications Act was amended in 2014 it replaced the requirement to develop Rapid Deployment Guidelines with the requirement to develop a National Rapid Deployment Policy. As a result of this amendment, the National Rapid Deployment Policy was included in the National Integrated ICT Policy White Paper. The rationale for the replacement of the guidelines with a policy is that a large proportion of the key stakeholders that are affected by the Rapid Deployment Policy are not subject to the provisions of the Electronic Communications Act (ECA), and, consequently, their behaviour cannot be regulated through the ECA.
2.(a)-(b) The Department has not carried out any study to determine the impact of a delay in implementing the Rapid Deployment Policy as there is no delay as yet in the implementation.

Reply:
Honourable member, in accordance with the document titled, “Guide to Parliamentary Questions in the National Assembly”, which prohibits Members of Parliament, including the Executive, from divulging names of persons, bodies when asking or responding to parliamentary questions, I am unable to provide names of the companies as requested above. The document referred to states the following:
“Questions are to be framed as concisely as possible. All unnecessary adjectives, references and quotations are omitted. Names of persons, bodies and, for example, newspapers are only used in questions if the facts surrounding the case have been proven. As the mere mention of such names could be construed as publicity for or against them, it should be clear that this practice is highly undesirable. If a question will be unintelligible without mentioning such names, the Departments concerned are notified of the name (-s) and this phrase is used: ".......a certain person (name furnished)”

The FIC does not refer cases of acts of criminality for investigation. Rather in terms of Section 40 of the Act, it refers packages of transactional and other information that present indicators of suspected criminality to be investigated by the competent authorities. It is for these authorities to determine if the transactions are indeed proceeds of crime, or may be associated with an unlawful predicate offence.
The FIC has recorded the information sought from 2012 onwards and which is set out below.
(a) Between 1 April 2012 till 31 March 2017 the FIC referred 87 matters for investigation by the competent authorities for them to determine if the transactions reported are proceeds of crime or connected to an unlawful predicate offence involving acts of corruption as defined by the Prevention and Combating of Corrupt Activities Act, Act 12 of 2004 (PRECCA) legislation.
The FIC made the following referrals related to suspected acts of corruption and for which statistics have been kept in the financial years:
2012/2013: 9
2013/2014: 8
2014/2015: 6
2015/2016: 40
2016/2017: 24
Total: 87 referrals.

Lees, Mr RA to ask the Minister of Finance
Whether, with reference to his reply to oral question 29 on 12 May 2017, Government has investigated the possibility of using the Government Employees’ Pension Fund (GEPF) through the Public Investment Corporation (PIC) as a possible public entity partner for SA Airways (SAA) as one option in Government’s review of SAA’s long term turnaround strategy; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, (a) how will the interests of beneficiaries of the GEPF be protected from possible future losses incurred by SAA and (b) what are the further relevant details in this regard?
Reply:
No. Government has not investigated the possibility of using the Government Employees’ Pension Fund (GEPF) through the Public Investment Corporation (PIC) as a possible public entity partner for SA Airways (SAA) as one option in Government’s review of SAA’s long term turnaround strategy.
The Minister of Finance announced in the Budget Speech on 24 February 2016 that he, together with the Minister of Public Enterprises had “agreed to explore the possible merger of South African Airways and South African Express, under a strengthened board, with a view to engaging a potential minority equity partner, and to create a bigger and more operationally efficient airline”. The Study undertaken by Bain and Abacus in this regard has been completed and the next steps are for the National Treasury and the Department of Public Enterprises to review the options and recommendations to allow an informed decision to be taken on how to proceed.
The PIC does not hold equity investments in State Owned Companies (SOCs). However, the PIC, on behalf of its clients, does hold a substantial amount of bonds of various SOCs. A significant portion of the PIC's bond-holdings in SOCs is government guaranteed. Importantly, SOCs have never defaulted on any of the PIC's bond investments. The PIC undertakes all investment decisions in the best interest of its pensioners and clients and in line with client mandate requirements and the investment risk parameters stipulated by client mandates. The continued support of SOCs by PIC will be underpinned by these mandate requirements. Moreover, all investments are also subject to a robust due diligence process which includes a credit analysis, Environmental, Social and Governance report as well as risk and legal reports.
The aim of the PIC remains to safeguard pensions of public servants and ensure that reasonable returns are generated for contributors.

Reply:
In June 2016, the National Treasury met with various officials within the Department of Energy (DoE), the Central Energy Fund (CEF) and the Strategic Fuel Fund (SFF). This meeting was held subsequent to the National Treasury learning of the disposal of the strategic oil reserves by the SFF with a view of understanding the details of what had occurred.
Following the meeting, the SFF committed to submitting to the National Treasury all documentation relating to the disposal process. The National Treasury reviewed the documentation in order to ascertain the legality of the process followed in accordance with the Public Finance Management Act (PFMA) and the Central Energy Fund Act of 1977.
The National Treasury completed its review and reported its findings and recommendations to the former Minister of Energy in August 2016. No response has been received to date. The former Minister of Energy instituted an investigation into the stock disposal process, however, the findings of the investigation have not been reported to the National Treasury.

Redelinghuys, Mr MH to ask the Minister of Police
Whether the Acting National Police Commissioner made any appointments in terms of section 45(9) of the South African Police Service Employment Regulations of 2008 since 31 March 2017; if so, in each case, (a) what are the full names of the individuals who were appointed, (b) what position was each specified individual appointed to, (c) what are the qualifications of each individual, (d) what was the exceptional circumstances that warranted such deviations, (e) why was the deviation in the interest of the Service and (f) has he recorded the specified reasons in writing as required by section 45(9) of the specified regulations?
Reply:
(a) The full names of the individuals who were appointed are:
- Denver Johann Hattingh;
- Frank Boycie Saunders; and
- Kholekile Goodwill Nonkewuse.
(b) The position each specified individual was appointed to is:
- Lieutenant Colonel: Events Management
- Colonel: Station Commander, Emanguzi, Kwa-Zulu Natal; and
- Sergeant: Corporate Communication and Liaison, Eastern Cape.
(c) The qualifications of each individual are:
- Hattingh: Grade Twelve (12) Certificate;
- Saunders: Grade Twelve (12) Certificate, almost completed Bachelor of Policing Practice; and
- Nonkewuse: Grade Twelve (12) Certificate and Certificate in Sound Engineering.
(d) The exceptional circumstances that warranted deviations were:
- Hattingh: The officer served a period of more than 11 years in his previous rank. He has extensive experience within Corporate Communication and Liaison, especially in Events Management and he played an integral role in the organising and successful hosting of National Events such as the National Excellence Awards Event, POLMUSCA etc.
- Saunders: Following issues raised by the community of Emanguzi to the President, the post of Station Commander: Emanguzi was upgraded, and a resolution was taken to fast track the appointment of a permanent Station Commander and to increase members to do policing in the Emanguzi-area in order to meet the challenges that existed and to stabilize policing in such area; and
- Nonkewuse: The member, being a member of the Service for more than 9 years and holding the rank of Constable was inter alia responsible for Community Outreach Projects, and took it upon himself to train and manage the Provincial Choir. The choir became involved in Project Harmony which involves outreach events to support crime prevention messages through music. Under his leadership the Eastern Cape Choir became national champions and also won several external competitions, and built a sound relationship with the Department of Sport, Recreation, Arts and Culture, as well as the Department of Social Development whereby the choir is supporting an old age home through music concerts.
(e) The deviation was in the interest of the Service because:
- Hattingh: A vacant funded post existed at Events Management, and the officer has been performing such duties with exemption. Numerous praises after successfully hosting such events were directly attributed to the officer’s involvement.
- Saunders: Colonel Saunders was identified by the Provincial Commissioner Kwa-Zulu Natal as he possessed extensive skills in managing operational methods and intelligence driven means in curbing the scourge of crime that affects the community in the Emanguzi area;
- Nonkewuse: The promotion of Sergeant Nonkeuse was strongly recommended by the Provincial Commissioner: Eastern Cape based on the member’s leadership-abilities and to retain his rare skills in the SAPS as he was offered employment by various other stakeholders, which would have resulted in the SAPS losing an asset, and would have had a negative impact on the Service.
(f) Yes, in every affected case, the Acting National Commissioner recorded the reasons in writing as required by section 45(9) of the specified regulations.

Mbhele, Mr ZN to ask the Minister of Police
With regard to the alleged threats received by a certain person (name furnished), on the basis of which it was decided to assign her a VIP security detail, (a) at what police station was/were the threat(s) reported; (b) what is the CAS number for the docket that was opened and (c) who is the investigating officer assigned to investigate the complaint in each case?

It is not a requirement that a threat assessment be based on a reported crime. As previously stated, the SAPS cannot divulge the detail associated with the threat assessment as this may potentially compromise the safety and security of (name furnished) and the relevant SAPS members.

Robertson, Mr K to ask the Minister of Rural Development and Land Reform
(a) With reference to the budget allocation, and projection as reflected in the annual performance plan which was discussed in the meeting of the Portfolio Committee on Rural Development and Land Reform on 3 May 2017, why is the intake of Mpumalanga National Rural Youth Service Corps students and budget significantly lower than the rest of the other provinces, (b) why has the budget allocation been reduced, (c) what percentage of the budget is allocated to skills development and (d) what is the monetary value of that budget percentage?
Reply:
a) The Mpumalanga Province did not recruit youth into National Rural Youth Service Corps Programme (NARYSEC) during the 2012 financial year. As a result the number of youth currently in the NARYSEC Programme in Mpumalanga Province is lower than other provinces. During the 2017/18 financial year the province will recruit about 300 youth.
The budget is allocated based on the number of participants/students currently in the programme, number of participants/students to be recruited during the financial year and amounts to be paid for training. The budget allocated to Mpumalanga Province was calculated on the same principles.
(b) The budget allocation for Mpumalanga Province has not been reduced but increased by 27.8% in the current financial year from R25.196 m to R32.169 m.
(c) Skills development is allocated 29.9% of the budget.
(d) The monetary value is R9.62 m.
