  • The Local Government MinMEC resolved that the Minister finalise the payment model for the once-off gratuity after having considered the recommendations of the Commission and the resolutions taken at the MinMEC meeting that was held on 2 September 2016.

The payment model was finalised on Tuesday, 16 November 2016.

Yes, payments of the once-off gratuity has commenced.

(i) In the process of payment, the Department is busy with the necessary preparations, calculations and verification of the payments to eligible non-returning councillors.

   An amount of R309 million was appropriated for this purpose. The total amount that will be paid out will be determined after the payment have been finalised.

(ii) As at 28 November 2016, more than 4000 former councillors, still need to receive their gratuities.

Baker, Ms TE to ask the Minister of Water and Sanitation

(1)What (a) is the current status of the Ermelo Waste Water Treatment Plant in Mpumalanga and (b) are the results of the water quality tests of the treated effluent in each month since 1 January 2016; (2) whether the specified plant complies with the standards for effluent discharge as regulated by her department; if not, what action has she taken to rectify the situation; if so, what are the relevant details?

Reply:

(1)(a) The Ermelo Wastewater Treatment Plant is currently receiving 12-16 Ml/day and is designed to handle 10 Ml/day. Overall, the infrastructure of the plant is in a bad condition and this has compromised the sewage treatment process to the extent that substandard effluent is being discharged.

(b) The Green Drop System, which the Department utilizes to monitor compliance levels of wastewater treatment works in the country, shows that the level of compliance for the plant from 01 January 2016 to September 2016 is zero for micro, physical and chemical parameters specific for wastewater effluent.

(2) The effluent from the plant does not comply with the general standard. The Department had meetings with the municipality, inspections were conducted and correspondence was also sent to the municipality. Due to the lack of response from the municipality, a task team (comprising DWS, the Departments of Human Settlements, Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs, Economic Development, Environment and Tourism as well as the District and Local Municipalities) was then established to address the concerns related to the plant.

Mackenzie, Mr C to ask the Minister of Telecommunications and Postal Services

What (a) was the total amount of the acquisition of a certain company (name furnished), (b) were the terms of the specified acquisition which were accepted by the liquidator to the creditors and (c) was the amount owed by the specified company to its creditors? 2. Has any of the accounts been outstanding for more than 30 days; if so, for how long has each account been outstanding? 3. What was the impact on the employment benefits and conditions of all the employees who were re-employed by the South African Post Office?

Reply:

I have been informed by the South African Post Office (SAPO) as follows that:

1(a) This is an intra-group transaction for the transfer of all the company’s assets and liabilities to SAPO and as such no cash payment will be made.

1(b) The provisional liquidation order against the company was dismissed by the High Court on 30 September 2016. The only creditor item approved by the provisional liquidator was the transfer of the company’s employees to SAPO. As the company is no longer in provisional liquidation, it is in the process of finalising the intra-group sale of business transaction with SAPO.

1(c) Creditor balances as at 31 October 2016, amounted to R250 million, of which R46 million relate to third party creditors and the balance of R204 million is owed to SAPO.

2. All outstanding creditor accounts are more than 30 days overdue. SAPO is in the process of finalising the transaction and will then submit for Ministerial approval in terms of Sections 54 and 66 of the Public Finance Management Act No. 1 of 1999 (PFMA). SAPO has also advised that once the transaction has received the requisite approval in terms of the PFMA, it will ensure that all amounts owing to third party creditors are paid in full.

3. In terms of the agreement concluded between SAPO and all employees under Section 197 (6) of the Labour Relations Act No 66 of 1995, all employees were transferred to SAPO on 01 September 2016, on the same employment terms and conditions applicable to all SAPO employees including membership access to the SAPO pension and medical aid fund schemes. The length of service and accumulated leave of all employees were also preserved and transferred to SAPO. Employees also received a once off non-pensionable and taxable ex-gratia payment in lieu of unpaid salary increases during the period April-August 2016, which was part of the resolution of the previous long outstanding labour settlements.

Profile picture: Paulsen, Mr N M

Paulsen, Mr N M to ask the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries

Whether, with reference to the recently released documentary, Bitter Grapes, which shows the alleged levels of abuse that farmworkers are subjected to on some farms, his department has done any investigation into the alleged levels of abuse, the living conditions of such farmworkers and the rate at which land owners evict farmworkers; if not, why not; if so, what are the (a) relevant details in this regard and (b) circumstances of farmworkers in the country?

Reply:

Although the Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (DAFF) has learnt with grave concern about the “Bitter grapes” documentary, it has to be stated that DAFF did not conduct any investigation due to the fact that the matters raised by honourable Paulsen falls outside its ambit. Living conditions of farm workers falls within the mandate of the Departments of Labour and Rural Development and Land Reform.

The plight of farmworkers is a serious concern to the sector at large and goes beyond the scope of the Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries and even that of government. In trying to remedy this predicament, the Vulnerable Workers Interdepartmental Forum was instituted and different role players were allocated responsibilities falling within their scope to come up with interventions that would mitigate the plight of the vulnerable workers.

The main Departments serving on the Forum are:

  • Department of Labour which is responsible for working conditions of vulnerable workers,

In light of the fact that the Justice, Crime Prevention and Security Cluster’s efforts to reduce the number of remand detainees in correctional services, estimated to be 40 000, which have not managed to yield the desired results, what additional measures is he, as the Executive responsible for three of the Budget Votes that directly impact on this desired outcome, recommending to deal with overcrowding in correctional centres that is too costly for the country?

There has over the years been a significant reduction in the number of remand detainees.

Reduction in numbers

Reduction in %

12.09%

The table above reflecting the trends from March 2012 to September 2016 revealed that the population of RDs reduced by 12.09% over a period of five years. This reduction should be equated to the team effort of various role players who contribute in the implementation of the strategies. These results could be much better if the factors that play a role in delaying cases could be effectively managed. A further study is required with focus on the remand detainees with co-accused whose cases take longer than three years. Another area that requires attention is the front end of the Criminal Justice System with focus on the RDs that spend up to three months in detention.

Children Remand Detainees:

With the introduction of the Child Justice Act (Act 75 of 2008), the number of RD children reduced from 504 in March 2010 to an annual average of 99 in 2015/16. The lowest average number of children was recorded in August 2016 (72). The overall reduction of children RDs from 2010 to August 2016 was 85.7%.

It is crucial to understand that the key drivers of the population of the remand detainees are beyond the control of the detention institutions. These drivers, according to international literature, are the use of pre-trial detention and the increasing trend in serious crimes. The increase in serious crimes is closely related to an increase in the use of pre-trial detention by courts without the option of bail.

The number of admissions and the length of stay are regarded as other drivers which are beyond the control of institutions responsible for the detention of RDs. Factors found to be linked to the increase in the length of stay of remand detainees are as follows,

  • The presence of multiple co-accused in one case or accused linked to other crimes that are under investigation;
  • Withdrawal, rehiring of legal representatives and changing of legal representatives by the accused;
  • Failure of the co-accused and or their legal representative to appear in court on set dates thus leading to remanding of the cases for several times;
  • Request for the separation of trials by the accused in the middle of the cases;
  • Brings of bail applications by the accused in the middle of the trail through the bail application was attended to at the beginning of the case;
  • Delays in securing a date at the high court for the cases that are escalated by lower courts to high courts;
  • Loss of court records;
  • Failure of witnesses to appear in court;
  • Presence of multiple witnesses in some cases;
  • Requests for remand either by defence, lawyers of the accused and/or the state;
  • Failure of the co-accused to appear in court especially those that are under non-custodial system;

In addition to the previously mentioned key drivers, there are other factors that are thought to play a role in the failure to reduce the number of RD’s. These factors include failure to pay bail by the remand detainees who have been given bail by courts. The percentage of such RD’s ranges between 15 and 19%.

Despite all the challenges mentioned above there are several strategies implemented to deal with overcrowding at the cluster level and the departmental level.

Additional interventions which specifically focus on the down management of remand detainees by the DCS are:

  1. The implementation of bail protocol (Section 63A of Criminal Procedure Act, Act 51 of 1977). The protocol makes provision for the Head of a Correctional Centre to approach the relevant court to release an accused on warning in lieu of bail or to amend the bail conditions imposed by that court when the offender population of a particular correctional centre is reaching such proportions that it constitutes a material and imminent threat to human dignity, physical health or safety of the accused. It is worth mentioning that this section is only applicable to those accused with bail who have been charged with Schedule 7 crimes.
  1. The Marketing of section 63(1) of the Criminal Procedure Act (Act 51 of 1977). Section 63(1) makes provision for the accused or prosecutor to make an application to the court to reduce the amount of bail that was set by the relevant court.
  1. Referral of RDs to court for consideration of their length of detention. The Correctional Service Act (section 49G) makes provision for the Head of the Centre to submit an application to court for the consideration of the length of detention of the RDs before they complete two years in detention initially (application submitted at 21 months) and annually with regard to subsequent applications. The provision does not suggest that there is custody limit in terms of period of detention in South Africa for RDs. The courts responds by utilizing the provisions applicable to section 63A applications as there is no parallel provision in the Criminal Procedure Act.

The cluster approach in the reduction management of remand detainees appears to be effective. The DCS alone could not be successful in reducing the population of the RDs. The Executive Head of the Department of Justice and Correctional Services in consultation with Director of NPA and the National Commissioner of Correctional Services has appointed a bail task team which has been assigned to determine factors that contribute to the RDs staying in detention while they have an option of paying bail. The task team falling under the Criminal Justice System Reform is finalizing the report on audit conducted in Pollsmoor and the Mthatha centres remand detention facilities. It is hoped that the report will assist in providing guidance on coming up with alternative approaches for managing RDs with bail.

Reply:

1. The matter relating to transferring of the income generated by the Road Traffic Management Corporation (RTMC) to the revenue fund was laid to rest by the FFC resolution. We attached the FFC resolution for ease of reference.

2. The RTMC is a creature of statute and any monies generated and or income made by the corporation is regulated by the act that established the Corporation. It is therefore prudent to consider the resolution of the FFC as attached above.

3. The FFC resolution attached offer an explanation in relation to these matters.

4. The payment to Tasima post 2012 was per the various court orders against the department and no court order was ever made against the RTMC for the payment of theeNaTIS to the Tasima. Therefore there could be no legal ground or basis on which RTMC can be made to reimburse the monies paid.

  • The previous accreditation issued to training providers came to an end on 31 March 2016.
  • Applications for re-accreditation were received by the Construction Education and Training Authority (CETA) in 2015.
  • Due to the extension of the National Skills Development Strategy III, accreditation for all applicants were extended to 30 June 2016.

(d) Reasons for not receiving accreditation

(e) What plans are in place to assist centres to obtain accreditation?

Each training provider that is not compliant received an evaluation or compliance report from CETA with specified findings with remedial actions. The report is signed off by both the CETA Compliance Officer and the provider representative.

Some of the main reasons for not obtaining accreditation are:

  • Training centres are not meeting the criteria for registration of assessors, practitioners with CETA (training providers particularly for plant operations and scaffolding qualifications presented internal provider based certificates and not the recognised CETA Statement of Achievements as per CETA quality assurance policy), no learning materials supporting the unit standards or qualifications applied for.
  • Inadequate equipment or structures or no existing structures to conduct the required practical training.

Learning Materials:

  • In terms of learning materials, CETA has funded the development of standard learning materials for the National Certificate in Electrical Engineering, as well as for the National Certificate in Construction Contracting. These learning materials are made available to providers.

Practitioner/Assessor Qualifications:

  • If training was conducted by an accredited CETA training provider, CETA upon request by such a provider conducts an external moderation assessment. If found competent, assessments are uploaded on the CETA Management Information System and a Statement of Results (SoR) or Achievement is issued.

One-on-one meetings, telephonic or e-mail support:

  • Training providers are provided with on-going support.

2.

(a) What are the qualifications of Assessors?

(b) Training material from CETA to training centres

CETA uses its own staff as compliance officers to conduct the site audit visits for accreditation. Standardised accreditation instruments, tools and checklists are utilised by the compliance officers. Assessors have education and training, and/or human resource development qualifications with accompanying relevant experience. Staff members with technical construction qualifications are involved in the accreditation compliance site visits.

CETA has made available standardised learning materials for the National Certificate in Electrical Construction to support small electrical contractors, as well as standardised learning materials for the National Certificate in Construction Contracting to support small and emerging construction enterprises.

Maynier, Mr D to ask the Minister of Finance

(1)Whether the National Treasury has evaluated the (a) feasibility, (b) affordability and (c) procurement process of the nuclear build programme that the Government is proposing; if not, in each specified case, why not; if so, in each specified case, what are the relevant details; (2) whether the National Treasury has produced any reports in this regard; if not, in each case, why not; if so, in respect of each report produced, (a) what is the title of the report, (b) when was the report produced and (c) what are the (i) main findings and (ii) recommendations?

Reply:

  1.  

(a) National Treasury has undertaken preliminary assessment of various aspects of the feasibility of the nuclear new build programme, based on the Draft Feasibility Study (2013) submitted by the Department of Energy. The Department of Energy has not yet completed a full feasibility study with a cost-benefit analysis which includes a socio-economic assessment. As a result, a detailed assessment of the feasibility and the affordability of the nuclear new build programme cannot be undertaken at this stage.

(b) During 2015, National Treasury engaged extensively with officials from the Department of Energy on the potential financial, fiscal and economic implications of the nuclear new build programme (which are all involved aspects of affordability). A presentation was produced to guide discussions and shared with officials of the DoE. National Treasury has not yet presented these preliminary findings to Cabinet and therefore cannot currently share the details.

(c) The Office of the Chief Procurement Officer (OCPO) held a series of engagements with the DoE during 2015 on the nuclear new build programme’s procurement strategy, after which the OCPO wrote to the department expressing National Treasury’s opinion on that strategy. On 13 September 2016, the National Treasury received a set of documents, which included the reviews undertaken by the DoE Transaction Advisors. A preliminary assessment of the documents was undertaken and a letter sent to the DoE on 23 September 2016, outlining Treasury’s assessment on the state of readiness of the procurement strategy. The Treasury intends to engage further with the DoE once documents have reached a more substantive stage of development.

2. (a) (b) The reports that Treasury has produced in this regard are the following:

     (1) An internal report containing an assessment of the DoE’s draft feasibility study of November 2013 was prepared and finalised in 2014. The report was titled ‘Assessment of the Nuclear Feasibility Study’.

      (2) Internal research conducted by the Treasury on the high level costs and risks associated with a nuclear build programme was first conducted in 2013 and has been updated since, in line with updated global trends.

      (3) In September 2015, at Cabinet’s request, the National Treasury prepared a preliminary report on high-level fiscal and financial implications of a new nuclear build programme.

      (4) The Chief Procurement Officer sent an assessment of the draft procurement documents to the Department of Energy in February 2016.

(c) Main findings and recommendations:

These reports only contain preliminary observations, which were reached from limited information. Extensive work is still required before substantive conclusions are reached. A full cost-benefit analysis must be conducted which must include a comprehensive social and economic impact assessment before the feasibility, affordability and procurement strategy can be properly assessed by the Treasury.

The Department of Energy is the lead department in government on this matter. They are best place to respond. Recent documents released by the Department of Energy should be of assistance in this regard.

(1)(a) What were the detailed outcomes of the discussions on Mining Operation Phakisa held in 2015, (b) how long did the specified discussions take, (c) where were the discussions held, (d) who attended the discussions and (e) what amount did the hosting of discussions cost; (2) whether the specified outcomes were published in a report; if not, why not; if so, on what date was the specified report published; (3) will he furnish Mr J R B Lorimer with a copy of the specified report?

Reply:

The intended outcomes of the initiatives include;

  • Promoting investment in the mining cluster in the newly established One-Stop-Shop facility that links to the Invest South Africa process, developing a common message across key stakeholders and unlocking impediments to the entry of independent black capital.
  • Increasing exploration through the provision of cutting edge geo-scientific information and special funding mechanisms.
  • Increasing participation of emerging miners in the mining value chain by creating alternative funding mechanism and creating mechanisms for collaboration with Majors.
  • The implementation of an industry wide decent work program with an initial focus on rights at work, the rejuvenation of Future Forums, policy alignment and social protection.
  • The implementation of a cluster reskilling and upskilling programme that is collaborative, transparent and enables mobility across the cluster.
  • The establishment of a multi-stakeholder crisis intervention task force (modelled on government intervention post the financial crisis) with the objective of saving marginal mines and jobs.

The Mining Phakisa Lab took five weeks, from 26 October 2015 to the 27 November 2015 in Limpopo (3 weeks at the Legends Resort) and at the Capital Hotel in Sandton (2 weeks).

Stakeholders from organised business, organised labour, civil society, some chapter 9 institutions, Congress of traditional Leaders and government departments attended the Mining Phakisa lab. The cost was R26 785 520.81 and the report will be made available after the Presidential Launch in December 2016.

Davis, Mr GR to ask the Mr G R Davis (DA) to ask Minister of Basic Education

(1) With reference to (a) her reply to question 530 on 24 March 2016, (b) the 2015-16 annual report of her department and (c) the undertaking by her department in the meeting of the Portfolio Committee on Basic Education on 1 November 2016, why (i) were only 7% of newly appointed principals subjected to competency tests and (ii) was the Western Cape the only province to implement Principal Competency Testing in the 2015-16 financial year; (2) whether any consultation on Principal Competency Testing has taken place with the various teachers’ unions; if not, why not; if so, (a) which teachers’ unions were consulted and (b) what are the unions’ positions on Principal Competency Testing? NW3005E

Reply:

(i) Only 7% of newly appointed principals were subjected to competency tests because the tests were not mandatory yet. Provincial Education Departments had not commenced with the development of such tests. The Western Cape and Gauteng were the only provinces which have developed competency tests but did not apply the tests for the appointment of school principals. The DBE had to first put systems in place to prepare for the implementation of the tests across all provinces. The preparations involved the development and the promulgation of the policy on the South African Standard for Principalship which had to serve as the basis for the developments of the assessment test and consultation processes at the Education Labour Relations Council (ELRC).

(ii) The Western Cape was the only province that implemented competency tests in the 2015-16 financial year but made it optional for schools to utilise the tests in making appointment recommendations for principals, hence the low 7% average.

RESPONSE TO NATIONAL ASSEMBLY QUESTION 2592

(2) (a) Consultation on Principal Competency Testing has commenced with all unions. The first meeting took place on 23 August 2016 at the Education Labour Relations Council (ELRC) offices where all unions were present.

(b) SADTU is of the view that Competency Assessment for principals is a matter of mutual interest and must be a subject of collective bargaining in the ELRC rather than consultation, while CTU-ATU is willing to have bi-lateral meetings with the Department before the matter could be finalised. A follow-up meeting was scheduled for 30 November at the ELRC but has to be postponed due to the commitment of the parties to the ELRC and the ELRC to a Portfolio Committee engagement meeting with education stakeholders.

Atkinson, Mr P to ask the Minister of Economic Development

With reference to his reply to question 2291 on 8 November 2016, what was the total financial cost incurred by the Industrial Development Corporation for conducting the specified 126 investigations as at the latest specified date?

Reply:

As stated on 8 November 2016 in response to question 2291, all of the investigations were conducted by the in-house forensic audit team who report to the Head of Internal Audit at the IDC. Consequently, no additional financial cost was incurred by the Industrial Development Corporation for conducting the 126 investigations except for the normal remuneration the investigators receive as employees of the Industrial Development Corporation.
