Waters, Mr M to ask the Minister of Home Affairs
(1)What are the reasons that South African citizens who are born outside the Republic have to wait six months for an identification document; (2) has the new smart card ID computer programme been updated in order to allow naturalised South African citizens to obtain the new smart card ID; if not, by what date will the specified computer programme be updated; if so, what are the relevant details?
Reply:
1. Cases that may last longer than the prescribed turnaround time of 54 days for the issuing of an identity document and 47 days for requests for re-issue are those that do not meet the requirements or those under investigations where the client may be required to furnish additional information. This process applies to qualifying citizens including naturalised citizens. Documents attached by naturalised citizens are required to be verified before the processing and issuing of an identity document and it is always endeavoured to conclude the process within the specified set time frames.
(2) No. The Department continues to rollout the issuance of smart ID Cards in a phased- in approach. The process of expanding the Live Capture footprint and the verification process of the records for naturalised citizens are ongoing as are the system upgrades which will make provision for this category of applicants. Upon determination of adequate footprint and system status readiness, the Minister will make an announcement which will give naturalised citizens the opportunity to apply for Smart ID Cards.

Grootboom, Mr GA to ask the Minister of Arts and Culture
What (a) motivated his department to continue with the embattled Enyokeni Cultural Precinct project and (b) justified the further injection of R28,1 million into the specific project in the 2017-18 financial year; 2. What prompted the termination of projects in collaboration with the Independent Development Trust in the specified project; 3. With reference to the findings of the forensic investigation into the specified project, (a) which officials who were found to have been involved were charged with impropriety and (b) what progress has been made with the charges in each case?
Reply:
1. (a). Following the forensic investigation into Enyokeni Cultural Precinct and in order to determine if the Department received value for money, the Department obtained the services of Rubiquant Quantity Surveyors firm. The completion of the multipurpose amphitheatre facility together with other structures that are incomplete motivated the continuation of the Enyokeni project, which if not finalised, could lead to further wasteful and fruitless expenditure and could become white elephants. Furthermore, the project is in line with the Department of Arts and Culture’s (DAC) mandate to develop, preserve, protect and promote arts, culture and heritage for a creative and inclusive nation. The project also has the potential of helping the DAC fulfil its strategic outcome-oriented goals based on the National Development Plan and Government’s Programme of Action which include the creation of a transformed and productive Arts, Culture and Heritage (ACH) sector that actively develops, preserves, protects and promotes diverse ACH, an effective and efficient ACH sector, an effective/impactful nation building and social cohesion programme and a professional and capacitated ACH Sector.
The motivation to continue with the project is based on recognition of its cultural and heritage value that also has the potential for the creation of job opportunities, sustainable cultural tourism, rural infrastructure development and socio-economic development.
(b). The R28.1 million budgeted for the Enyokeni project in the 2017-18 financial year is the cost estimate for the completion of the multipurpose amphitheatre facility subject to confirmation by Bill of Quantities (BoQ).
2. The termination of projects in collaboration with the Independent Development Trust was prompted by the findings of the final report by Rubiquant Quantity Surveyors which indicated that the DAC did not receive value for money in the implementation of Enyokeni Cultural Precinct Project and other Departmental infrastructure projects. Among others, the report outlines the following findings:
(a). The Department has been overcharged for a range of professional services as well as for the materials used on the Enyokeni Cultural Precinct. This is evident from the contracting that went beyond acceptable industry norms of 9% to 15% of the total project value to 30% that was charged on the Department.
(b). The report further indicates that the quantity in the tender Bill of Quantities (BoQ) was changed after the tender was advertised and such rectification caused high upward movement of the unit rates. While this is attributable to human error the DAC should have been notified of the possible escalation so that provision is made for such in the allocated budget for the project.
(c). The Department was overcharged on the materials used such as G7, 8, 9 gravel and C4 filling that was above the market related prices. Concrete, fencing and gates tariffs were also found to be higher than market tariffs.
(d). The Department was further overcharged on contractors preliminaries. Contractors generally charge preliminaries between 7.5% and 12.5% in relation to the value of the works.
(e). The assessment of the award of the contract at a price above what the actual cost of the project could have been.
3. With reference to the findings of the forensic investigation into the specified project, the details of the officials who were found to have been involved and charged with impropriety; as well as the progress thereto is as follows:
(a) Three (3) former officials of the Department who were involved in the project were found to have been implicated in and the following was preferred against each of the officials:
i. disciplinary action – against the senior official who was appointed to manage the ECP project from the Office of the former DG;
ii. Criminal charges – against the erstwhile Director General for violation of section 38 (1) of the PFMA; and the former Acting Director General of the DAC for the contravention of sections 86 (1) of the PFMA read with sections 38, 39, and 40 of the PFMA.
3 (b) The progress of the charges in each case is as follows:
(i) Disciplinary charges against the senior manager were transferred to his current employer for the attention of the then Acting Head of Department, Gauteng Human Settlement. The current employer was requested to proceed with disciplinary processes in line with Section 16B (4)(b)(ii) of the Public Service Act, 1994, as amended.
ii. Criminal charges against the erstwhile Director General and former Acting Director General were registered with the Directorate for Priority Crime Investigations (the HAWKS), under the Serious Economic Offences Unit in April 2016. The Department registered a number of criminal charges which include Enyokeni, and the investigations are in progress. The Department has been making follow-up on progress and continues to do so.

Van Der Walt, Ms D to ask the MINISTER OF PUBLIC SERVICE AND ADMINISTRATION
(a) What is the date of the inception of the Government’s Integrated Financial Management System (IFMS), (b) what are the reasons for the delays in implementing the IFMS, (c) which (i) provinces, (ii) departments and (iii) Government entities have implemented the programme to date, (d) what are the successes of the IFMS to date, (e) what is the total cost incurred in its implementation and (f) how will the system minimise corruption in the public sector?
Reply:
a) The Integrated Financial Management System (IFMS) Programme was originally approved by Cabinet in 2005. The Cabinet approval entailed, amongst others, that a hybrid solution architecture, which comprised a mix of commercial off the shelf (COTS) and bespoke (in-house developed) modules, would be implemented. For purposes of this document this approach is referred to as “IFMS 1”. As a result of challenges that were experienced in the execution of the IFMS, a number of independent reviews were commissioned during 2013 in order to obtain a holistic view of its strengths, weaknesses and opportunities for improved execution of the Programme. Based on the recommendations emanating from these reviews, it was recommended to Cabinet that a revised approach to the IFMS solution architecture should be implemented, which entails that a single COTS solution, with minimal customization, should be utilized in future. The revised approach (for purposes of this document referred to as “IFMS 2”) was approved by Cabinet on 20 November 2013 which is regarded as the inception date for the current approach to the execution of the IFMS.
b) The implementation of the IFMS has been delayed by a number of challenges that have been encountered. These include the complexity of managing a multi-stakeholder programme, extended procurement and contract negotiation processes and insufficient internal skills for the development and integration of the various modules during IFMS 1.
c) In the question reference is made to “Government entities”. It should be noted that the scope of the IFMS is at this stage limited to Public Service departments as listed in the schedules to the Public Service Act, 1994. As part of IFMS 1 some modules were implemented in a limited number of lead sites. These included a human resource management module which was implemented in the Department of Public Service and Administration (DPSA), a procurement management module in National Treasury and an asset management module in a number of departments in the Limpopo Provincial Administration. The human resource management module is currently being used by DPSA. Any modules still in use will eventually be replaced by the single COTS solution procured for IFMS 2.
d) The following can be regarded as successes in relation to IFMS 2:
- The procurement of a single COTS enterprise resource planning system that will form the technology platform for the IFMS, from Oracle South Africa.
- The establishment of a dedicated Programme Management Office to manage the IFMS going forward, in National Treasury.
- The establishment of various governance bodies, with representation from key Programme stakeholders, to govern and oversee the execution of the Programme. These include a Programme Committee, a Risk Committee, a Communications Committee, a Business Owners Committee and an Architecture Board.
- The mapping and documentation of Public Service business processes in the areas of human resource management, financial management, supply chain management and payroll management in consultation with the various policy owners. These business processes, which are based on best practices, will assist in the design and development of the IFMS.
- A number of pilot and lead sites, which include both national and provincial departments, have been identified and engagements with these departments are on-going.
- Detailed planning for the next phases of the Programme, which include the design and development of the solution and its implementation in pilot and lead sites, is being finalized.
e) National Treasury is funding the development and implementation of the IFMS. Questions relating to the cost of the Programme should therefore be directed at National Treasury.
f) It is believed that the IFMS will make a significant contribution in combating corruption in the Public Service. Some of the inherent features of the solution, such as keeping audit trails of transactions and the elimination of manual processes, will assist in this regard. The intention is also to integrate the IFMS with existing systems such as the e-Disclosure system on which certain categories of public servants must declare their financial interests, the Central Supplier Database in National Treasury and the population register in Home Affairs (which will assist to eliminate “ghost workers”).

Alberts, Mr ADW to ask the Minister of Transport
(1)Whether, with reference to the judgment in the case The Road Traffic Infringement Agency Board v Fines 4 U (Pty) Ltd and Another in April 2017, in which it was found that the Road Traffic Infringement Agency did not comply with the Administrative Adjudication of Road Traffic Offences Act (AARTO), she will take steps to ensure that all officials in the AARTO process comply fully with the provisions of the specified legislation; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, what are the relevant particulars; (2) what number of the representations dealing with technical defects and handed to the Road Traffic Infringement Agency have been implemented since the test phase in Johannesburg and Pretoria; (3) whether, in light of the specified judgment, the Road Traffic Infringement Agency will take the specified representations under review, since it has been illegally dismissed; if not, why not; if so, (a) what are the full relevant particulars and (b) whether reimbursement will be made to people from whom money was irregularly collected in this regard; (4) What are the road accident statistics (a) on the road on which AARTO was implemented since the beginning of the test phase and (b) for each year since AARTO has been implemented up to the latest specified date for which information is available; (5) (a)(i) why and (ii) in which manner AARTO will be implemented countrywide and (b) what (i) is the deadline and (ii) are the milestones in this regard?
Reply:
1. In order to ensure compliance with the legal prescripts and processes enshrined in the AARTO legislation, the RTIA has developed Standard Operating Procedures. The Standard Operating Procedures will be published as part of the Regulations in order to ensure compliance by all role players.
2. The RTIA regards every aspect raised in the representation made as a technical issue. To this extent, the number of representations that the RTIA dealt with since the pilot phase since 2008 up to 31 March 2017, is 506 984 representations.
3. The RTIA is in the process of giving effect to the court order in relation to the specified judgement.

De Freitas, Mr MS to ask the Minister of Transport
When will he table the National Road Safety strategy document that was recently approved by Cabinet in Parliament?
Reply:
The Honourable members of the National Assembly are requested to take note:
(i) That the development of the Road Safety Strategy is part of the operational activities. It must be noted that unlike legislation and policy matters, the tabling of the operational activities at Parliament is not a standard practice. However, the Road Safety Strategy can be presented at the Portfolio Committee upon request.
(ii) That the process to develop the Road Safety Strategy before tabling it for Cabinet approval was widely consultative and very exhaustive, with multiple stakeholders taking interest. The National Road Safety Strategy was closing a crucial policy gap and addressing an urgent national malaise on the country's roads, thus cannot be delayed any further.
(iii) That the subsequent step after Cabinet approved the Strategy is to implement it in the fight against road carnage. Had this been a matter of a Policy shift or changing of Legislation, it would have been brought forward to serve before Parliament but in its current form, the strategy contains operational techniques to use in order to effectively make our roads safe.

Reply:
The requirement to disclose financial interests by Public Servants is regulated by the Financial Disclosure Framework. This Framework was introduced in March 2000 with the requirement that all Heads of Department (HoD) and employees on post level 15 in National and Provincial Departments should disclose their registrable interests on the form determined for this purpose by the Public Service Commission (PSC). In May 2001, the Financial Disclosure Framework was incorporated into the Public Service Regulations (PSR), 2001 and extended to cover all members of the Senior Management Service (SMS i.e. levels 13 to 16). These Regulations have since been repealed by the PSR, 2016, which came into effect on 1 August 2016.
Prior to the implementation of the PSR, 2016 the disclosure of financial interests was made in terms of Chapter 3 C.1 of the PSR, 2001, which stipulated that every designated employee (SMS member) shall, not later than 30 April each year, disclose to the relevant Executive Authority, particulars of all her/his registrable interests in respect of the period 1 April of the previous year to 31 March of the year in question. Any person who assumed duty as a designated employee after 1 April in a year was required to make such a disclosure within 30 days after assumption of duty in respect of the period of 12 months preceding her/his assumption of duty. The Executive Authorities were required to submit copies of the forms on which the designated employees disclosed their financial interests, to the PSC by not later than 31 May of each year. These provisions of the PSR, 2001 were retained in new PSR, 2016.
The submission of financial disclosure forms by the National Commissioner, Deputy National Commissioners and Provincial Commissioners between the period 2012/2013 and 2015/2016 are indicated in Tables 1 to 3 below:

Table 1 above shows that the National Commissioner of the SAPS submitted her financial disclosure forms consistently between the financial years 2012/2013 and 2014/2015. The PSC did not receive the financial disclosure form of the National Commissioner in respect of the 2015/2016 financial year. This is apparently due to the fact that she has been placed on special leave during this period. The financial disclosure forms of the current Acting National Commissioner were submitted consistently between the period 2012/2013 and 2015/2016.
The submission rate of financial disclosure forms by Deputy National Commissioners is shown in Table 2 below:

The PSC was informed that subsequent to this transfer, the post of National Commissioner: Operational Services was not provided for on the structure of the SAPS during the 2014/2015 and 2015/2016 financial years. In view thereof, the financial disclosure form of the incumbent of the post of Deputy National Commissioner: Operational Services was not expected during these periods.

In view thereof, the financial disclosure forms of the incumbent of the post of Deputy National Commissioner: Physical Resource Management were not expected during these periods.
- Mazibuko NNH, who was the Deputy National Commissioner responsible for Human Resource Management, retired from the service. The PSC was informed that subsequent to this retirement, the post was not provided for on the structure of the SAPS during the 2014/2015 and 2015/2016 financial years. In view thereof, the financial disclosure forms of the incumbent of the post of Deputy National Commissioner: Human Resource Management were not expected during these periods.

Ntlemeza BM was subsequently appointed permanently to this position and his financial disclosure form for 2015/2016 financial year was submitted. Table 2 shows further that Ntlemeza BM has been submitting his financial disclosure forms consistently between the 2012/2013 and 2015/2016 financial years.

Hadebe, Mr TZ to ask the Minister of Environmental Affairs
(a) What is the expected revenue and financial benefit for the South African National Parks (SANParks) regarding the proposed Malelane Safari Lodge in the south of the Kruger National Park, (b) were any monies exchanged between private and government entities during the period 01 January 2007 to 31 December 2010 regarding the approval of this project, (c) why has the project stalled for almost a decade and (d) why does her Department continue to approve this project despite the fact that a traffic assessment study has not been completed, as ordered by the last impact review process?
Reply:
Malelane Safari Lodge:
a) The expected revenue will be higher than the minimum rentals of 6% of actual revenue.
Minimum Rentals are as follows:
Year 1 - R864, 525.55.
Year 2 - R1, 152,700.73.
Year 3 - R1, 440,875.91.
Year 4 - R1, 602,063.32.
Year 5 onwards - R2, 161,313.87.
b) No monies were exchanged.
c) Due to long public participation processes, further delays has recently been experienced due to the BEE partners contractual disputes, the EIA approval was only received in April 2016.
d) The construction of the lodge itself has no impact on the Traffic Impact Assessment associated with the access road in the different projects. The final alignment of the access road will be informed by all the required studies. This EIA study on the realignment of the access road will still commence.

Mhlongo, Mr TW to ask the Minister of Sport and Recreation
(a) What is the current status of the National Training Centre, (b) what are the funding details of the specified centre and (c) what is the total amount that the SA Sports Confederation and Olympic Committee committed in funds to the specified centre since its inception
Reply:
(a) The National Training and Olympic Preparatory Centre (NTC) emanates from the South African Sport Academies Strategic Framework and Policy Guideline. In 2013, the South African Sport Confederation and Olympic Committee (SASCOC) having earmarked the Free State Sport Science Institute (FSSI) approached the Free State (FS) Provincial Government to develop the FSSI to be the NTC. The Department of Sport and Recreation South Africa (SRSA) further made a commitment to the project and looked at a number of funding options to fund the establishment of the NTC. In 2014 five percent of the Conditional Grant was ring-fenced for the development of the NTC. This occurred after further engagements with the National Treasury to amend the Conditional Grant Framework to provide for construction of sport infrastructure. A project management company with a team of consultants was appointed to develop a Master Plan, which was approved by the NTC Steering Committee (represented by all provinces) overseeing the development of the NTC.
The first assignment was to establish the additional high-performance training facilities that can complement the current facilities. The Table below represents the list of proposed facilities to be constructed, with a phased-guide.

After consultation with the NTC Steering Committee it was decided to commence with the construction of the indoor swimming and athletics facilities, because South African athletes are stronger and more competitive in these two-sporting codes. However, since this decision, the Central University of Technology (CUT) approached the Free State Department of Sport, Arts, Culture and Recreation with an offer of exchanging land earmarked for the FSSI that was planned for the development and construction of the NTC for Cecilia Park, which belongs to the CUT.
The Department (SRSA) considered the offer of the CUT and resolved that the Free State Provincial Government should accept it with the condition that it be Cecilia Park land with the replacement cost of all the existing buildings. The CUT agreed to the land swap and an additional R112 million for the replacement of the existing infrastructure. The exchange of the land is currently underway and is in its final stages. We have adjusted the original master plan to fit the new sit. As soon as the exchange of land is finalised we will immediately commence with the construction.
(b) The development and construction of the NTC is through the conditional grant. In 2015/16 to 2016/17 five percent of the grant was made available for the purpose which amounted to R24 million and R23 million respectively. In 2017/18, the conditional grant was increased to ten percent of the total grant allocation, which amounts to R58 million a year.
(c) National Lottery Distribution (Lotto) funded SASCOC to the tune of R10 million, which was for upgrading of the existing accommodation facility.

Purdon, Mr RK to ask the Minister of Environmental Affairs
(1)Whether her department followed due processes of public participation in processing the application for the proposed Spitskop West Wind Energy facility; if not, why not; if so, (2) why did her department accept and condone the gross underrepresentation of potential and registered interested and affected parties in this application (details furnished); (3) whether officials from her department were in any way (a) aware of and/or (b) involved in the actions of certain persons (names furnished) who engaged with 22 interested and affected parties without advising AVDS Environmental Consultants?
Reply:
1. I am advised that on 5 October 2016, Gestamp and Sarge Wind (Pty) Ltd, lodged an application in terms of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Regulations, 2014, with the Department of Environmental Affairs (DEA) (the competent authority for this application) for the proposed construction of the 140 MW Spitskop West Wind Energy Facility and its associated infrastructure near Cookhouse within the Blue Crane Local Municipality in the Eastern Cape Province.
In terms of record, the applicant commissioned an independent environmental consultancy, Terramanzi Group (Pty) Ltd, to conduct an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) for the above application. The final Scoping Report was received on 18 November 2016 and was conditionally accepted on 23 January 2017. DEA received the draft Environmental Impact Assessment Report (EIAr) for review and comment on 18 April 2017 and is awaiting submission of the final EIAr for review and consideration within the stipulated timeframes as outlined in the EIA Regulations, 2014, as amended. The Department has however not yet received the final EIAr, and hence the EIA process has not yet been concluded and the Department has advised therefore not made any decision on the application yet.
Honourable Member will know by now, that environmental assessment practitioner (EAP),
Mr Fabio Venturi of Terramanzi Group (Pty) Ltd., is responsible for the public participation process in terms of the requirements of the EIA Regulations, (please see regulations) 2014 as amended, and not the DEA. As such, the competent authority is not responsible for the actual public participation process and the applicant’s EAP would have to “follow due processes of public participation”. DEA is however required to review the final EIAr as part of its decision-making process to determine whether the methods used by the EAP during the public participation process, have met the legal requirements of the EIA Regulations, 2014. As DEA is still awaiting the submission of the final EIAr, it is not yet in a position to determine whether the “due process of the public participation process” as well as the requirements of the EIA Regulations, 2014 were met.
2. In terms of the department’s knowledge to date, not been any “acceptance or condonation of any alleged underrepresentation” of registered I&APs. Details of the public participation process (followed and to be followed) as contained in the scoping report was thus far deemed acceptable, hence the scoping report was accepted. The EIA process is, I am further advised, still underway, including consultation, and DEA is awaiting the submission of the final EIAr.
3. (a) As indicated above, the EAP is responsible for the public participation process according to the EIA Regulations, 2014, requirements; and
(b) DEA is not involved in any aspect of the actual public participation process. Proof of the public participation process conducted notifications, meetings held, and comments received, and so forth, form part of the final EIA which is still to be submitted by the EAP. Officials from DEA were therefore not privy to such details at this. Please note that I am the Appeals Authority in this matter and all such matters and therefore unable and unwilling to get into further correspondence and engagement on this matter for reasons related to fairness and remaining legally compliant and above board. I will only be able to deal with the responses to the Appellant , should there be one at the time when such an appeal may be received.

Grootboom, Mr GA to ask the Minister of Sport and Recreation
How many (a) persons employed at government-sponsored sports clubs were assessed against the Child Protection Register in the (i) 2014, (ii) 2015, (iii) 2016 and (iv) 2017 calendar years and (b) of the specified persons were found not suitable to work with children in each case?
Reply:
(a) Government has and continues to support sport clubs. Clubs directly supported by Government are community based clubs and are normally run by volunteers. The aforesaid volunteers are not paid by Government and thus have not been subjected to an assessment against the Child Protection Act by the Department of Sport and Recreation. Although the requirement for such an assessment may be considered in future, it will require capacity from the relevant agencies, in a programmatic fashion, thus necessitating assessments of the volunteers from the same clubs more regularly. Due consideration must be given to the communication on the purpose of conducting the assessments, as the retention of the volunteers is quite low.
(b) There was no screening done.
