1. The location of functions in a province is the prerogative of the Premier of the province and the Executive Council of the respective provinces. It is on this basis that decisions were taken that the function be located with the Department of Transport in Eastern Cape, Free State, Mpumalanga, Northern Cape and North West provinces whilst it is located with the Department of Education in Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal, Limpopo and the Western Cape.

2. Yes, in five (5) provinces: Eastern Cape, Free State, Mpumalanga, Northern Cape, and KwaZulu-Natal, the function was transferred from the Provincial Education Department to the Provincial Department of Transport. The Eastern Cape transferred the function to the Department of Transport in 2011. The Northern Cape transferred the function in 2012, KwaZulu-Natal in 2012, and Free State in 2014. In KwaZulu-Natal, the function was transferred back to the Department of Education with effect from 01 April 2017.

Response (a)

Following consultations with institutions such as the Competition Commission, the BEE Commission, a threshold of R100m was determined based on Combined Annual Turnover and/or Combined Asset Value on 08 November 2016. The Minister subsequently issued Government Gazette No. 40410, Notice 748 of 2016, thresholds for Major B-BBEE Transactions for a 30-day public commentary period. Amongst others, the rationale for the R100m was that it will ensure all transactions by mainly large entities (those with annual revenue greater than R50m) in terms of the Codes are covered. However, with the exception of small and medium entities which if their combined annual turnover is below R100m, would be excluded and consequently for monitoring and reporting purposes would go un-tracked. Furthermore, the Notice highlighted the Documentary Requirements for Registering a Major B-BBEE Transaction.

In addition, the majority of the comments received during the public commentary period focused on the use of the combined Turnover and/or Asset Value not being an appropriate measure to determine a threshold. The argument is that if the combined Turnover and/or Asset Value are used, any transaction, regardless of the actual size of the transaction, when the proposed threshold based on the parties’ assets or turnover is exceeded, will have to be registered. This would have effectively meant that all changes in the shareholding traded on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange for listed companies, will have to be measured to identify the compliance impact on the Ownership element (Code 100). Should such transaction have an impact as mentioned above, it should be reported to the BEE Commission. This process would have an unintended consequence to assess the Ownership scorecard impact for each trade and to be then reported. Following this, the dti refined the principle by basing the measurement on the “Transaction Value” as this is more appropriate considering the context of what needs to be registered. The Threshold is R25 million based on Transaction Value which will be registered by parties to the Transaction as a collective. As mentioned above, the threshold was thus lowered to R25million in order to proactively alleviate any potential fronting practices even at small and medium sized enterprise level.

The registration of the mentioned deals is not with the Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment Council but rather a Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment Commission. The role of the B-BBEE Presidential Advisory Council is to advise the President and government on the design and implementation of the B-BBEE policy, amongst others.

Furthermore, the rationale for maintenance of a registry for major B-BBEE transactions is a matter of transformation imperative which is ideal for qualitative and quantitative valuable records keeping; data of these transactions might also be used to measure the extent of transformation in South Africa especially with regard to the Ownership and Control elements.

The threshold will enable the B-BBEE Commission to have a broad overview of all the transactions that are taking place in the country and to deal with potential fronting practices.

Response (b)

The B-BBEE Commission has been established in 2015 under the ambit of the dti to oversee the implementation of B-BBEE Legislation within South Africa.

The B-BBEE Regulations published on 06 June 2016, outlines the procedures of engaging with the B-BBEE Commission as well as indicates the process to follow when registering a Major Transaction with the B-BBEE Commission.

The B-BBEE Commission has already issued an Explanatory Notice 01 of 2017 indicating the documentation requirements in order to register a Major B-BBEE Transaction.

The B-BBEE Commission has competent staff members and the capacity to manage the process of registering all Major B-BBEE Transactions including those that will be registered retrospectively. The retrospective transactions are for registering only and not necessarily for assessment.

(1) Working for Water: Department of Environmental Affairs (WfW: DEA) has been actively involved with the controlling and eradicating invasive weeds in Roodeplaat Dam and has developed a plan to realise this. From 2007 to 2010, the level of weeds has been reduced from 100% to about 5% through their interventions. Working for Water has spent more than R4 million towards this. Furthermore, Working for Water is providing herbicides to land owners through Department of Public Works office on site to control invasive species. Refer to Annexure A for the Strategic Plan.

(2) Monitoring is done by the project manager for Working for Water in the Department of Environmental Affairs.

(3) My Department has developed Resource Management Plans for management of Access and Use of State Dams. As part of the plan it is proposed that for each dam, that has boating recreational use, the Department should build a washbay to wash the boats from other dams to controls and contain invasive weeds. Moreover my Department is currently finalising Regulations for Access and the Use of State Dams.

Furthermore, land owners are mandated by NEMBA (National Environmental Management Biodiversity Act 10 of 2004) together with the Alien and Invasive Species Regulations that came to effect on 1 October 2014, which both give the responsibility to the land owners to develop management plans to control and eradicate invasive species including the budget to realise the above. To this effect, there is a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed between the Department of Environmental Affairs and my Department to map out how this should be achieved. Continuing engagements are in place to this effect. Refer to Annexure B for the signed MoU.

(1)(a)The refurbishment of Groblersdal Waste Water Treatment Works (WWTW) within Sekhukhune District Municipality (DM) was completed in December 2015, however; the practical commissioning of the refurbished work was done during June 2016 and the waste water treatment plan is functional. The waste water treatment occasionally experience breakdown of aerobic mixer due to the plant being overloaded and the contractor who was refurbishing the plant attended to the breakdown as part of retention period.

(1)(b) My Department did not take steps in assisting with completion since both the Sekhukhune DM and Lepelle Northern Water Board did complete the refurbishment work, and is operational. The practical commission was however done in June 2016.

(1)(c) My Department Regional Office: Limpopo visited Groblersdal Waste Water Treatment Works on 10 May 2017 and the following findings were made:

• Lepelle Northern Water is responsible for the operation of the WWTW. Both the old and the new plant are operated simultaneously. The works was operational however signs of overflow were observed.  According to the official present, this was due to the influx of effluent from the pump station which only started operating on 08 May 2017.
• A site inspection was also conducted at the pump station which pumps sewerage into the Groblersdal WWTW, which is located in the outskirts of the industrial area. The pump station is managed by Sekhukhune DM and it was not operational for the last 6 months. During the time when it was non-operational, sewage from town was pumped to the pump station via a channel, however the effluent did not reach the WWTW. This led to the effluent being diverted into an unlined emergency pond at the back of the pump station, which may possibly lead to surface and groundwater pollution. Discussions between Lepelle Northern Water and Sekhukhune DM took place, however the problem persisted. According to the official from Lepelle Northern Water the pump station started operating on Monday, 08 May 2017. A Section 19 Notice under the National Water Act, Act 36 of 1998 will be issued to the Sekhukhune DM, as the responsible authority for operation and maintenance of the pump station.

(2) Yes, my Department monitors the quality of the water in the Olifants River. Refer to the Table 1 below which is the summary of the effluent quality discharged by Groblersdal Wastewater Treatment works, downstream and upstream of the Works:

1. Yes, the Department was requested to provide consular assistance to Mr Culverwell. His fiancée is not a South African citizen but a citizen of the Ukraine.

(a) In such a situation the relevant South African Diplomatic mission will endeavour to establish and maintain contact with the detainee and also undertake a consular visit at the soonest opportunity and at certain intervals thereafter. Family and friends will be kept updated on the wellbeing of the detainee as per consent of the detainee. The payment of financial assistance for the detainee to buy basic necessities in prison, as deposited by the family, will be facilitated as well as the delivery of letters written by family and friends.

(b) A diplomatic mission abroad can only request that a detainee is allowed the contact with family or an employer as provided for by the local regulations in the receiving State. Detainees in the UAE are permitted to make telephone calls to family members and an employer provided they have sufficient funds. Receiving calls are not permitted.

Visits by family members to detainees are allowed in accordance with local regulations. Mr Culverwell did not raise any complaints to the embassy as to not being allowed to call or to receive visitors.

2. (a) When entering a foreign country a South African national subjects him-/herself to all the laws and regulations of that sovereign country whether or not such laws are similar to South African law or not. The South African Government respects the sovereignity of other countries and will not request the return of a South African national based on the mere fact that the particular offence committed is not regarded as an offence in South Africa.

(b) The punishment meted out for offences in a foreign country is determined by the law and the Courts in that particular country and the South African Government cannot intervene in the Court proceedings and judicial processes in a foreign country.

3. (a) and (b). When a South African is arrested abroad the SA Embassy can provide a list of law firms in the country but the choice and appointment of a particular lawyer rests with the person arrested. The SA Government does not provide funds to cover the legal costs of South Africans arrested abroad. In the case of Mr Culverwell in the UAE, his employer appointed legal representation. Mr Culverwell and his fiancée have since been released from detention, but the case has not finalised yet. Their release is equivalent to a free bail in South African terms. The couple is currently at their place of employment and residing at staff accommodation.

1. South Africa continues to support MONUSCO (United Nations Organization Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo) through a deployment of uniformed and other personnel in a multi-dimensional peacekeeping which involves the military, police and the civilian components. MONUSCO’s strategic priorities are to protect civilians, stemming out of violence against women and children perpetuated by armed groups. The current mandate of MONUSCO will expire on 31 March 2017. The UN will provide guidance in terms of the extension of the mandate based on a situational analysis on the ground, particularly in the Eastern DRC and the political developments as the country prepares for the elections by end of 2017.

(1)(a) The Minister is pleased to share ther Sector Prioritisation paper (Annexure A); and

(1)(b) The Draft Development Partnership Guidelines (Annexure B).

(2)(a) The Department of Small Business Development (DSBD) has commissioned (Greater Capital) a service provider to conduct research on the eco-system. The research is conducted in close collaboration with the following organisations: South African Breweries (SAB) Foundation, Sustainable Entrepreneurship Accelerator (SEA) Africa, Allan Gray and Global Entrepreneurship and Development Institute (GEDI).

(2)(b) The final report with findings and recommendations will be presented to DSBD Executive Committee within the second quarter of the current financial year.

(3) Programme Impact Evaluation

This type of evaluation (impact evaluation) measures the non-observable aspects that result from the programme. For example, while the number of enterprises supported by a programme is 200 (as established through monitoring), the number of sustainable ones among these – an intangible and multi-composite attribute – may only be evident through measurements of effectiveness.

A programme’s effectiveness can only be measured through a repeatable study that applies multiple data methods. In this instance, enterprise sustainability may be the effect sought by the programme. “Sustainability” may be one of the components defined for “economic growth”. Outcomes are relevant to cumulative effects that together with other reinforcing aspects have profound socio-economic implications (say, creating a small business-conducive environment, an entrepreneurship culture, etc).

Given this background, the portfolio of Department’s programmes are being evaluated internally on the basis of planning, design and implementation, guided by the Monitoring and Evaluation Framework guidelines developed for the department at this stage. This is motivated by the fact that most of the programmes that are being run by the department are inherited from the Department of Trade and Industry and therefore to assess their relevance to the mandate, Mission and Vision of the department, this process is necessary. The guiding principles are derived from the Acts that govern both SMMEs and Co-operatives nationally coupled with the guideline documents which were developed on inception to guide implementation.

To measure policy impact coupled with outputs and outcomes up to date, with intention to measure effectiveness, efficiency and value for money, the Department undertook to partner with Department of Planning Monitoring and Evaluation-DPME and undertook to embark on an evaluation process of the Integrated Strategy on the Promotion and Support of Small Businesses (2005).

This process is to identify what needs to be done to institute more responsive interventions that will be more responsive given current challenges; highlight an overall impact on the programmes’ responsiveness to the needs of SMMEs to date. The outcome of this exercise will inform an evidence based review and programme improvement plan that will position the interventions as more responsive to needs of beneficiaries and point at more effective methodologies that are better fitting to the developmental mandate.

(2) There is no Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between any of the three Metro Police Departments (MPDs) and the South African Police Service (SAPS) in Gauteng.

There are three fully established MPDs in Gauteng, namely:

• Johannesburg MPD;
• Ekurhuleni MPD; and
• Tshwane MPD.

The SAPS has, however, established a National Forum for MPDs, which includes all of the MPDs in the Gauteng Province. The Forum, chaired by the Divisional Commissioner: Visible Policing on behalf of the Acting National Commissioner, convenes on a quarterly basis. The Forum is attended by the Provincial Commissioners in whose provinces MPDs have been established, namely Eastern Cape, Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal and the Western Cape.

The purpose of the Forum is to coordinate joint operations between the SAPS and the various MPDs, informed by the identified crime threats and tendencies in the relevant jurisdictions. Senior members of the various MPDs also attend Provincial Joint Intelligence and Operational Structure (Prov JOINTS), during which integrated operations are planned.

The Forum also coordinates the quality assurance of entry-level qualifications for MPD members, while additional, specific training is provided by the SAPS, including: drill and physical training, management and leadership training, crowd management training and general policing training (predominantly using a “train-the-trainer” approach).

The SAPS in Gauteng is also supported by the Gauteng Traffic Police who also mobilise the smaller Municipal Police Departments to provide a joint integrated approach to policing.

The Gauteng Law Enforcement Agencies Forum (GLEAF) was established in 2015. This forum coordinates and drives joint interventions between the SAPS and other law enforcement agencies. The forum accounts for all joint operations within Gauteng and guides the need for specific interventions at all levels. The forum is chaired and headed by the Deputy Provincial Commissioner Policing: Gauteng and consists of all SAPS Operational Heads and Police Chiefs.

The forum is an effective operational command structure that has yielded good results. The following priority committees were established:

• Bad Buildings;
• By-Law Management;
• Counterfeit Goods;
• Taxi Violence;
• Road Safety; and
• Illegal Mining.

The above-mentioned committees plan and execute joint, integrated operations, addressing specific problems and report monthly to the GLEAF on actions executed, successes and future interventions. Several discussions and planning sessions were held during 2016/17 and a MOU will be facilitated during May 2017, after considering the inputs received.

The SAPS and MPDs have, in partnership with the Member of the Executive Committee (MEC) for Community Safety, compiled the following strategies that drive the joint integrated approach to policing in Gauteng:

• The Gauteng Safety Strategy; and
• The Gauteng Integrated Policing Strategy.

(b) The information on the number of applications received for student housing at each public university for the start of the 2017 academic year is not available. The Department does not collect statistics on the number of applications for student housing. Once the Central Applications Service is fully operational, this information will be readily available and updated annually.

(2) Table 2 shows the approved student housing allocations from Infrastructure and Efficiency Grant (IEG) funds, and the proposed new beds to be built or refurbished at each university through the Student Housing Infrastructure Programme. The programme was launched by the Minister at the Student Housing Symposium, "Student Housing Matters", in July 2016. The programme aims to expand and accelerate the provision of student housing by developing 300 000 new beds over 10 years. At present, and utilising mainly IEG funds, universities develop about 3 000 new beds annually. Funding will be provided through the IEG allocations, Development Financial Institutions loans, and Public Private Partnerships involving the private sector developers and financial institutions.

The table shows that funding of R1.794 billion was allocated to 21 universities for the construction or refurbishment of student housing projects that will provide of 28 690 beds between 2017 and 2020. The IEG allocations already approved will be supplemented by other sources of funding secured by universities, facilitated by the Department.

A further R1.1 billion will be allocated to student housing projects during 2017/18. The number of beds to be provided through this funding will be finalised following the submission of project plans to the Department. Universities which did not receive grants in previous cycles will be considered for the 2017/18 and subsequent allocations. The objective is to provide larger grants to enable universities to leverage grant funding and develop projects that achieve economies of scale and reduce costs per bed.

The number of additional beds for 2020/21 onwards will depend on National Treasury approval of the IEG budget for the fifth funding cycle, i.e. 2018/19 to 2020/21, and additional student housing infrastructure funding raised by institutions, as described above.

a) (i) New points machines were installed in March 2017 and commissioned in May 2017.

    (ii) The point maintenance were replaced in March 2017 in a form of a new installation of signal machines as commissioned in May 2017.

b) Inspion of signal points is done every six months by Engineering Technicians and every twelve months by a Senior Engineering Technician. In between the fore mentioned inspections, there are ad hoc signal train inspections by Branch Managers.

1 (a) & (b). Yes, Section 4 of the Electricity Regulation Act, 2006 (Act No. 4 of 2006) provides for the National Electricity Regulator of South Africa (NERSA) to issue licences for generation, transmission or distribution facility and the import or export of electricity to be involved in the trading. Rules as determined by the Regulator specify that anyone owning and operating an electricity distribution facility requires a license from the Regulator.

2 Yes, NERSA as the statutory body that oversees the electricity market, has issued a distribution metering code and a transmission code [grid code] which contains the regulations that require compliance with NRS 057. NERSA has declared compliance with NRS 057/SANS 474 to be a licence condition for all licensees and is therefore a mandatory requirement for the municipalities.

3 No, all electricity suppliers such as municipalities and Eskom must make use of certified equipment which is compliant with the relevant standards used in the metering installation and supply. NRS 057 and SANS 474 set compulsory certification for meters and all the municipalitieis should adhere to such. In terms of calibration standards, new or replacerment components of meters shall be individually calibrated by an accredited calibration laboratory before the installation. Each model of meter shall also be tested to prove that it complies with the relevant standard and accuracy class.

a) There are no formal terms of reference. The Department of Trade and Industry (the dti), through its 14 sectors desks routinely establishes working groups or task teams with industry stakeholders to address critical issues in sectors of the manufacturing economy. The Poultry Task Team (PTT) was established in January 2017 to seek a collaborative approach to resolving issues in the primary production section of the poultry sub-sector, taking into consideration economic data and factors across the entire value chain. In so doing to design, develop and deploy as and where appropriate, collaborative measures to resolve these issues. The PTT includes representatives of government departments (Trade and Industry; Economic Development and Agriculture Forestry and Fishing); representatives of the South African Poultry Organisation and labour (Food and Allied Workers Union) as well as the Industrial Development Corporation and technical experts from the not for profit, section 21 company; Trade and Industrial Policy Studies (TIPS), contracted by the dti to undertake this work. From time to time government departments represented on the Task Team meet separately to formulate government approaches to the work and as and where appropriate brief other government agencies such as the International Trade Administration Commission (ITAC). In all instances government officials take into consideration the separate constitutional mandates and functions of the government departments and agencies which work together to achieve optimal socio-economic outcomes for South Africa and safeguard the integrity and independence of regulatory institutions such as ITAC. Government also seeks to secure collaborative arrangements with private sector entities. This process also recognises the independence of these entities.

b.i) The Task Team has met on 5 occasions,

b.ii) on the following dates: 16 February 2017; 09 March 2017; 06 April 2017; 16 May 2017 and 08 June 2017

c.i) Government has met with the Association of Meat Importers and Exporters (AMIE); provided a formal briefing to the Commissioners of the International Trade Administration Commission after receiving a request to do so, briefed both the Select Committee on Trade and International Relations and briefed and participated in the public hearings of the Portfolio Committee on Trade and Industry. In the latter instance all the Submissions made by a wide variety of stakeholders have been factored into the work of government and in its engagements with stakeholders, including those represented on the Task Team.

c.ii) The dates of these engagements are:

Association of Meat Importers and Exporters – 15 February 2017 and 11 May 2017 (EDD and the dti)

International Trade Administration Commission – 13 February 2017 and 13 June 2017 (the dti)

Select Committee on Trade and International Relations – 01 February 2017 (EDD .the dti and DAFF)

Portfolio Committee on Trade and Industry – 23 March 2017; 02 May 2017 and 09 May 2017 (the dti)

This list does not include bilateral meetings which may have been held by individual government departments with companies in the poultry sector including on-site inspections and visits.

d) In keeping with similar collaborative engagements in other sectors of the economy the Task Team does not come up with a set of ‘findings’. An example would be in the steel sector where there is extensive and ongoing, long-term work and collaborative engagements with the private sector. In this regard details of the ongoing work of government and with respect to its engagements in the Poultry Task Team, are a matter of public record since they were presented to Parliament on two occasions in considerable detail. Specific policy announcements by government on particular policy interventions such as the recently announced Agro-processing Incentive will be made, as and when this work on each measure has been completed, and as and where appropriate.

Reciprocal, private sector measures and interventions to save jobs, increase investment and exports, secure empowerment objectives and so forth, have and will be made by the private sector as and when such institutions consider it appropriate to do so. In this regard government respects the commercial and legal independence of industry associations, trade unions and companies, including with respect to those matters with which government may not be in agreement and whether or not they may have or may not have been discussed in the Task Team.
