Grootboom, Mr GA to ask the Minister of Arts and Culture
(1). Whether a certain person (details furnished) of the Nelson Mandela Museum in Qunu spent the accrued interest on the R15 million that was allocated for capital works at the specified museum, which has remained unspent and awaiting procurement approval for three years; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, what are the relevant details; (2) Whether he has taken any consequence management action against the specified person; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details?
Reply:
No person of the Nelson Mandela Museum in Qunu spent the accrued interest on the R15 million that was allocated for capital works at the specified museum.
The museum requested approval from The Department of Arts and Culture (DAC) to utilize the accrued interest of R2 470 757.86 for relocation and installation of the CCTV cameras in Bhunga building.
The breakdown of the R2 470 757.86 is as follows:
Rental of storage for artefacts R 414 458.86
Transportation of artefacts R 337 350.60
Relocation from Qunu to Bhunga R 218 948.40
Installation of CCTV cameras R1 500 000.00
Total R2 470 757.86
(2). No consequence management action was taken because the DAC granted the museum approval to utilize the interest accrued for the relocation and installation of the CCTV cameras in Bhunga building.

Redelinghuys, Mr MH to ask the Minister of Police
(a) How many fixed establishment positions were there for the (i) Detectives: Violent Crimes (Group A), (ii) Detectives: Economic Crimes (Group B), (iii) Detectives: General Crimes (Group C) and (iv) Detectives: Service Centre in each police station in each province (aa) in the 2015-16 financial year and (bb) since 1 April 2016, (b) how many of the specified positions were (i) filled and (ii) vacant in each case and (c) on which salary scale is each of the positions?
Reply:
(1)(a) The question requires a reply to address all the 1 142 police stations. This will be volumes of pages and is therefore responded by providing the provincial totals. The tables below provide a summarised exposé of the different questions and must be read with the previous reply to question 2163 which dealt with the total fixed establishment of police stations. The development and maintenance of the fixed establishment of the South African Police Service (SAPS) is informed and guided by Regulation 20 and 27 of the SAPS Employment Regulations, 2008 and is influenced by two primary variables:
- The approved organisational and post structures for police stations and clusters; and,
- the availability of funds in terms of the current budget and Medium Term Expenditure Framework.
The source that was used is the SAPS Fixed Establishment allocations for 2015/2016. The fixed establishment positions for police stations in each province in the 2015/2016 financial year and a summary of categories crimes investigated by the respective groups (attached as per annexure A) are tabulated as follows:

Tarabella - Marchesi, Ms NI to ask the Minister of Transport
What (a) are the full reasons why the SA National Roads Agency (SANRAL) approached the Constitutional Court regarding the tolling of the N1 and N2 highways in the Western Cape and (b) amount has SANRAL spent on legal expenses on the specified matter to date?
Reply:
(a) At the heart of the appeal is the question of condonation of an unreasonable delay on the part of the City of Cape Town, as an organ of state and its failure to provide an explanation for its unreasonable delay in reviewing the decisions taken concerning the N1/N2 Project (the Project). There is no question that the City knew that the decisions had been taken at the time that they were taken, that SANRAL was acting in furtherance of those decisions, and that the City stood by and did nothing even though it knew of this. It offered no explanation for why it did nothing. The Project was more than a decade in the making. Monies have already been spent in implementing and carrying out certain works concerning the Project. The City, being well aware of the Project, delayed unreasonably in bringing its application – almost a decade later. The City has never disputed that it became aware of the SANRAL decisions to declare the roads as toll roads when they were published in 2008. The peremptory 180-day period referred to in section 7 of the Promotion of Administrative Justice Act, (PAJA), (Act 3 of 2000) expired during March 2009
The N1 / N2 Winelands Project was conceived to improve the link between the Western Cape and the rest of the country, and substantial time, effort and investment had been put into its development. The Winelands Toll Road Project is a strategic infrastructure project that is necessary to sustain and develop the Western Cape economy and brings enormous economic development for the Western Cape Province. It was also earmarked to facilitate the movement of large volumes of export and import freight, business, tourism, recreational and commuter traffic which is vital to growing the South African economy.
(b) I must hastily point out to this honourable House and to the honourable member, Ms N I Tarabella Marchesi MP, that the Appeal as lodged by SANRAL is also against the costs order awarded and it would be negligent and misleading of me to mention a figure which the Appeal Court might overturn, my suggestion therefore is that we await the finalisation of the Appeal.

Maimane, Mr MA to ask the President of the Republic

Reply:
The questions asked form part of the subject matter of the Report into Allegations of improper and unethical conduct by the President and other state functionaries on matters relating to the removal and appointment of Ministers and Executives of State Owned Enterprises. It is clear from the remedial action to be taken that the Report is inconclusive. After the report was released, I have since indicated that I am giving consideration to the contents of the report in order to ascertain whether it should be a subject of a court challenge. I therefore cannot answer these questions as they form part of the said report.

Reply:
The questions asked form part of the subject matter of the Report into Allegations of improper and unethical conduct by the President and other state functionaries on matters relating to the removal and appointment of Ministers and Executives of State Owned Enterprises. It is clear from the remedial action to be taken that the Report is inconclusive. After the report was released, I have since indicated that I am giving consideration to the contents of the report in order to ascertain whether it should be a subject of a court challenge. I therefore cannot answer these questions as they form part of the said report.

Whether, with reference to his previous declaration of the Waterkloof house as an asset, which is used by a certain person (name furnished), (a) a certain family (name furnished) and/or (b) a company linked to the family assisted the person (details furnished) in purchasing the house; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, why did the specified family assist the specified person?

The questions asked form part of the subject matter of the Report into Allegations of improper and unethical conduct by the President and other state functionaries on matters relating to the removal and appointment of Ministers and Executives of State Owned Enterprises. It is clear from the remedial action to be taken that the Report is inconclusive. After the report was released, I have since indicated that I am giving consideration to the contents of the report in order to ascertain whether it should be a subject of a court challenge. I therefore cannot answer these questions as they form part of the said report.

Gqada, Ms T to ask the Minister of Human Settlements
(1)What is the (a) cost and (b) standard process set by her department with regard to constructing houses for military veterans; (2) has the construction of all the houses for military veterans to date followed the same (a) standard process and (b) cost in each province; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details?
Reply:
(1) (a) The current costs for constructing a house for a military veteran, as per the agreed minimum norms and standards with the Department of Military Veterans, has been set at R 188 884,00.

This MOU provides the framework regarding the obligations of the two Departments as well as for the Provincial Departments of Human Settlements and municipalities in the delivery of housing units for qualifying military veterans.
It includes an agreement that the Human Settlements Development Grant shall only fund the standard subsidy house cost and any residual amount required to achieve the higher specification house required by the Department of Military Veterans shall be funded by them as pointed out in paragraph (1) (a) above.
In terms of this MOU, the nine Provincial Human Settlements Departments are mandated to conclude Service Level Agreements with the Department of Military Veterans. These Service Level Agreements are to be based on the delivery targets set by the Department of Military Veterans.
(2) (a) In terms of the Memorandum of Understanding, construction of all housing units for military veterans should follow the agreed process as outlined above.
(b) Similarly, the cost break down as outlined must be complied with by all parties.

This should include an analysis for each option of the advantages and disadvantages and an assessment of the extent to which it will enable the achievement of Government’s objectives.
-
- Developing a comprehensive, holistic, overall recommendation for the optimal group corporate structure for the realignment the state-owned assets that will best achieve Government’s objectives. The recommendation must detail how each of these objectives are addressed; and
- Identification of the required policy interventions by Government to realign the state-owned airline assets;

Lees, Mr RA to ask the Minister of Finance
(1)Whether the Chairperson of the SA Airways (SAA) Board is entitled to a security detail; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, how many (a) security minders are on duty to protect the incumbent at any given time and (b) hours of the day are the specified minders present with the specified person; (2) whether the specified minders are armed; if so, what firearms do they carry; (3) what were the costs of employing the specified minders for each month since the specified person’s appointment in 2012; (4) whether the specified minders travel with the specified person; if not, why not; if so, what were the total costs of (a) accommodation and (b) travel expenses incurred for the specified minders for each month since the specified person’s appointment in 2012; (5) whether the specified minders are present at any SAA Board meetings; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, (a) what are the relevant details of all SAA Board meetings that the specified minders attended and (b) was the specified minders’ presence at the specified meetings sanctioned by the SAA Board?

The following information was submitted by South African Airways Board:
No member of the South African Airways Board including its Chairperson is entitled to a security detail; however the company provides general security at all its premises. No special security arrangements have been made and no minders have been appointed by SAA to protect the Chairperson. Consequently no expenditure has been incurred by the Company in this regard.
The National Treasury cannot verify this information.

(1)Whether the SA Reserve Bank (SARB) endorsed the appointment of a certain person (name and details furnished); if not, why not; if so, (a) what was the name of the person(s) who (i) evaluated and (ii) approved the endorsement of the specified person for the specified position and (b) on what date was the endorsement approved; (2) whether the specified person’s endorsement was recorded in any document; if not, why not; if so, what was the (a) nature of and (b) date on each such document; (3) whether the SARB took any disciplinary action against any person(s) involved in the endorsement of the specified person; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details; (4) whether the SARB’s decision to endorse the specified person contributed to the collapse of African Bank; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details?
Reply:
The following information was submitted by the South African Reserve Bank:
1. The South African Reserve Bank is the entity responsible for the prudential regulation of all banks in South Africa. This regulation includes ensuring that only those that meet the ‘fit and proper’ requirement act in key management and board positions. As such the South African Reserve Bank has provided the following response to this parliamentary question:
The Banks Act, Act No 94 of 1990 (the Banks Act), read with the Regulations relating to Banks (Regulations), requires that all directors and executive officers of a bank should be fit and proper and affords the Registrar of Banks (Registrar) the power to make an assessment in this regard. The application of a certain person was received by the Registrar who duly considered the prescribed information submitted with the application and notified the relevant bank in writing that that there was no objection to the proposed appointment.
2. The Registrar’s decision in terms of section 60 of the Banks Act was conveyed in a letter dated 6 August 2002 for the appointment of the specified person as Chief Operating Officer and Executive Director of African Bank Limited. A subsequent application was received for the appointment of the specified person as Executive Director of African Bank Investments Limited (the holding company) and approved in a letter dated 22 April 2003. The specified person was later appointed as Chief Risk Officer of African Bank Limited.
3. No disciplinary action was taken by the South African Reserve Bank (SARB) against any of its staff members in this matter as there was no evidence or allegations of any misconduct on the part of any staff member in this regard.
4. The causes of the failure of the previous African Bank Limited are documented in the Myburgh report which the SARB is unable to add to.

Marais, Mr S to ask the Minister of Defence and Military Veterans
(1)With reference to page 128 of the 2015-16 annual report of the Armaments Corporation of South Africa (Armscor), (a) what are the (i) details of and (ii) justification for Armscor’s application of a 25% black equity selection criterion as a requirement for supply chain management in contravention of the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act, Act 5 of 2000, as amended, (b) what steps have been taken by (i) her and/or (ii) Armscor to address the R13,2 million incurred as a result of the specified policy and (c) how did the transactions established by the specified policy benefit (i) Armscor and (ii) the SA National Defence Force; (2) whether the specified transactions have been regulated yet; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details?
Reply:
1. Armscor applied the 25% Black equity requirement as a selection criterion until September 2014 when the application of this criterion was discontinued. The objective of this strategic intervention was to address the dire transformational challenges facing the local defence industry.
When Armscor introduced the qualifying BEE requirement, the Preferential Procurement Policy Regulations were not applicable to Schedule 2 and 3 Public Entities. In 2011, National Treasury introduced the revised Regulations which became applicable to, inter alia, schedule 2 public entities and these entities were however granted exemption until 7 December 2012 for implementation of the Regulations. Armscor aligned its policy with the revised Regulations immediately but retained the 25% black equity ownership requirement.
Discussions were then started with the National Treasury, through which National Treasury was made aware of Armscor’ s policy of 25% black equity ownership requirement. Whilst in discussions with the National Treasury and in the process of applying for exemption subsequent to those discussions, the Auditor General declared monies spent on contracts which were subject to the 25% BEE requirement irregular expenditure.
The 13.2 million reported represents expenditure incurred during the 2015/16 financial period as a result of contracts placed during the period that the 25% black equity requirement was applied.
(2) The expenditure incurred while applying the 25% black equity criterion was condoned by National Treasury on 19 July 2016. The 25% black equity ownership requirement application resulted in some previously disadvantaged groups or persons entering the economic stream through participation in the acquisition/procurement contracts funded from the SDA, GDA and Armscor operational expenditure. To this end, this intervention has made strides in changing the ownership landscape in the South African defence industry.
Finally, the application of the 25% black equity ownership qualifying requirement has to an extent amongst others assisted in seeking to establish and retain sovereign and strategic capability for the benefit of the SANDF in local empowered entities.

Sithole, Mr KP to ask the Minister of Human Settlements
Whether her department has conducted a study to determine the number of (a) employed and (b) unemployed hostel dwellers for the purpose of developing a housing provision strategy, if not; why not, if so; what are the relevant details?
Reply:
In terms of the Community Residential Units (CRU) Programme, accommodation is provided to low-income households that earn a gross income of between R800 and R3 500 per month. All the funding related to this programme is allocated to the provinces and these provinces, municipalities or social housing institutions are responsible for the management of the units, including ensuring that the appropriate beneficiaries gain access to the rental units. Social facilitators can be appointed to determine the employment status of each hostel dweller in order to ensure proper unit allocation based on their affordability level. A portion of the funding provided to provinces is used for the compilation of 5 year provincial rental housing strategies which are demand and needs driven and which inform the Departments’ annual allocations.

10 November 2016 - NW2352
Marais, Mr S to ask the Minister of Defence and Military Veterans
(1)With reference to the 2015-16 annual report of the Armaments Corporation of South Africa (Armscor), why did the payments to executive directors increase by 8,04% while revenue decreased by 7,6% and expenditure increased by 13.1%; (2) whether each (a) executive director and/or (b) management official of Armscor signed a performance agreement with her for the (i) 2015-16 and (ii) 2016-17 financial years; if not, in each case, why not; if so, what (aa) are the relevant details and (bb) criteria are used to determine yearly (aaa) increases and/or (bbb) bonuses to the specified officials?
Reply:
(1) The payments to executive directors for the financial year ending 31 March 2016 included the once-off buy out of the future medical liability which were not included in the period ending 31 March 2015 and this result in the increase over and above the annual increase. This settlement of the future medical liability as negotiated with the employees and retirees of Armscor reduced the future liability for medical contributions after retirement significantly.
The biggest contributor to the decrease in the total revenue of Armscor was the decrease of the allocation to Armscor that is in accordance to the National Treasury baseline reduction. The increase in expenditure furthermore is mainly influenced by the recognition of actuarial losses on the medical liability buy-out that is a result of the settlement of the liability. If the impact thereof is excluded the operating expenditure increased with only 2.3%.
(2) All Armscor employees (including management) have an agreed Balanced Scorecard (BSC) that contains the individual’s performance criteria to be achieved. This is an annual process and it cascades down from the executive management which BSC’s are based on the goals and objectives that is contained in the Corporate Plan. Armscor only consider the payment of a performance bonus if the goals as set in the Corporate Plan are achieved (as agreed) and the funding is available. Individual performance bonuses are then based on a combination of the company achievement and the achievement of the individual’s performance criteria.
Annual increases are informed by market surveys and affordability. The increase also takes into consideration the agreement reached with Organised Labour. In this regard, the executive and senior management receive the same or lower increase percentage – as has been the case over the past few years - than members forming part of the bargaining unit as represented by Organised Labour.

Waters, Mr M to ask the Minister of Home Affairs
(a) Why does the Edenvale Home Affairs office service only 100 persons on Saturdays and (b) how many persons are turned away on average on Saturdays; (2) Whether any plans are being put in place to increase the number of persons serviced at the specified office on Saturdays; if not, why not; if so; what are the relevant details?
Reply:
(1)(a-b) It is not correct to state that Edenvale Home Affairs office services only 100 clients on Saturdays. The average statistics for the office on a Saturday is 120 for intake of applications for ID smart cards and passports only and 90 for collection of these documents ready for collection. This statistics excludes other legacy services rendered by the Department such as registration of births, deaths and marriages and related services required by clients over the weekend.
For your convenience I am attaching a copy of statistics for the previous three months (Aug – Oct 2016) marked Annexure A, B and C on services for ID smart card and passports excluding all other services.
2. The office is sufficiently capacitated over the weekend as there are 14 Front Office Clerks and 2 Supervisors on a weekend. Whilst the office is attending to all legacy and collection clients, the rate of processing clients applying for ID smart card and passport is due to clients’ particulars having to be captured on the live capture system.

Reply:
1. Yes, the Head of Department (HOD) of the National Treasury (NT) has signed a performance agreement since his appointment.
(a-d) Not applicable.
(i) The last performance assessment for the HOD of NT was conducted for the 2014/15 fiscal year; and
(ii) The results for the 2014/15 fiscal year was a B+ performance level in terms of NT’s performance management process.
2. The HOD signed performance agreements and has never received a performance bonus.
(a -b) Not applicable.
3. No, the HOD of NT has not received a performance bonus since his appointment.
(a -b) Not applicable.

Figlan, Mr AM to ask the Minister of Home Affairs
(1)Whether his department has included a pending application function on its live capture software for cases where the network service is interrupted; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details; (2) whether he is considering to approach a different service provider than the State Information Technology Agency to ensure a more consistent provision of services in each of his department’s offices; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, what are the relevant details?
Reply:
- No. Live Capture system does not have a pending application function, but functions on an off-line mode. If there is no WAN (Wide Area Network) service, the applications are stored at a local (office/branch) server and transmitted once the WAN connectivity is restored.
- Telecommunications Network Services is a mandatory service of the State Information Technology Agency (SITA) in terms of the SITA Act and Regulations. The matter of network downtimes has been brought to the attention of the Portfolio Committee on Telecommunications and Postal Services and Portfolio Committee on Home affairs in a joint sitting. SITA has presented the plan to provide redundancy connections to the Department of Home Affairs offices and the plan is monitored by the Portfolio Committee on Telecommunications and Postal Services.

Van Dyk, Ms V to ask the Minister of Home Affairs
(1)What is the current status of the application for the renewal of the passport of a certain person (name and details furnished); (2) (a) why was the specified person’s application for the renewal of a passport blocked, (b) why was the person flagged for investigation, (c) what were the findings against the person and (d) what steps will he take to resolve the specified matter speedily?
Reply:
(1) There is no passport application lodged on the system. However, the client is eligible to apply.
(2)(a-b) The specified person’s application for the renewal of a passport was not blocked. Markers were set on her identity number for precautionary purposes (awaiting confirmation of naturalisation requirements/ prerequisites in accordance with Section 5(5)(a) of the South African Citizenship Act, (Act no. 88 of 1995) (“the Citizenship Act”). This process was not pursuing the specified person, as it is similarly done to all foreign nationals who had acquired permanent residency and whose naturalisation process was not yet entirely concluded.
(2)(c) The investigation concluded that the applicant complied with Section 5(5)(a) of the South African Citizenship Act, 1995 (Act no. 88 of 1995). Section 5(5)(a) of the Act stipulates that the husband/wife of the South African citizen who has been married to a South African citizen for a period of two years may apply for naturalisation as a South African citizen if he/she has been permanently resident in the Republic for a period of two years after the Permanent Residence was issued.
(2)(d) Markers have been lifted on the identity number and the specified person can lodge the application for the required document (passport).
