Mbhele, Mr ZN to ask the Minister of Police
(1)Whether he obtained the concurrence of the Minister of Finance, Mr P J Gordhan, on the remuneration of Lt. Gen. B M Ntlemeza before he was appointed as the National Head of the Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation in accordance with section 17CA(8)(a) of the South African Police Services Act, Act 68 of 1995, as amended; if not, why not; if so, on what date did he obtain the concurrence of the Minister of Finance in writing; (2) whether he placed a notice of the remuneration scale payable to the specified person in the Government Gazette before the person was appointed to the specified position, in accordance with section 17CA(8)(a) of the specified Act; if not, why not; if so, (a) on what date was this gazetted and (b) what is the Government Gazette number; (3) whether he submitted the remuneration scale payable to the person to Parliament for approval, in accordance with section 17CA(9) of the Act; if not, why not; if so, (a) on what date and (b) in what form was the specified submission made to Parliament?
Reply:
1. At the time of the appointment of Gen B M Ntlemeza the current Minister of Finance, Mr P J Gordhan was not the Minister of Finance. The Then Minister of Finance, Mr N Nene was a member of the Cabinet and the appointment of Gen Ntlemeza was presented before Cabinet for concurrence. Cabinet Memorandum, which included the proposed remuneration scale of Gen Ntlemeza was distributed to all Cabinet Ministers including the Minister of Finance and no objection was received from the Ministers. Cabinet (with the Minister of Finance included) concurred with the appointment of Gen Ntlemeza on 09 September 2015 and that was before he was appointed on 10 September 2015.
It must be noted that the South African Police Services Act 68 of 1995 (SAPS Act), as amended, does not prescribe how concurrence should be obtained and there is no provision in the Act that requires concurrence by the Minister of Finance to be writing.
2. The Minister submitted the remuneration scale which has already been approved by the Department of Public Service to Parliament for approval. This is part of the process of publishing the said remuneration scale in the Government Gazette. Whilst it is acknowledged that the SAPS Act requires the Minister to place a notice of the remuneration scale payable to the Head of DPCI in the Government Gazette, it must be pointed out that the Act does not prescribe the time frames at which such notice must be placed in the Gazette.
3. (a) The Minister submitted the remuneration scale payable to Gen Ntlemeza to Parliament on 31 October 2016.
(b) The remuneration scale was submitted through the Speaker of the National Assemble in writing.

Reply:
- During the 2015/16 financial year, 2 369 persons who were charged with a variety of criminal offences, were referred for psychiatric evaluation by the courts, according to the records held at the Department of Health in this regard.
- Yes. There appears to be a very small increase in the number of persons (namely 4 more persons) that were charged and referred for psychiatric evaluation in the 2015/16 financial year compared to the previous 2014/15 financial year, where 2 365 persons were referred for psychiatric evaluation, according to the records held at the Department of Health in this regard. The number of persons that are charged and referred for psychiatric evaluation by the courts may differ from year to year as it is dependent on the assessments made by the courts as to whether there is a need for such referral for psychiatric evaluation.

Description |
Conclusion |
|
20 May 2011 |
“I would like to report that there was a tender irregularity with the awarding of the Office automation tender to a Supplier. The current CEO, of Supplier, is a blood relative to one of your ACSA employees, Group Specialist - Procurement Services. In the tender document, this relationship was not declared as per terms and requirements stated. Secondly, this Supplier was given an opportunity to re-submit pricing whilst other vendors were not given that opportunity.” |
No adverse findings and the investigation was closed and feedback sent to whistleblower. |
|
20 October 2011 |
This memo relates to the approved investigations related to the note sent to one of the ACSA Debtors allegedly by an ACSA to change the ACSA Bank details into which the Debtor should pay the amounts due. The email was received on the 20th October 2011. |
No ACSA employee was found to have been implicated and there was no loss of cash as the scam was unsuccessful. Note: A company-wide investigation on the state of payments and possible irregularities was launched using Deloitte during 2012. |
|
29 May 2011 |
This memo relates to the investigations undertaken as a response to the email received from Marelize Labuschagne on 29th April 2011. The author suspected that there might have been an “internal link” on the fraudulent payments to a Business Connection’s Standard Bank Account. |
No ACSA employee was found to have been implicated and there was no loss of cash. Note: A company-wide investigation on the state of payments and possible irregularities was launched using Deloitte during 2012. |
|
21 November 2011 |
A payment effected by ACSA SSC on the 31st Oct to the account of Cura Risk management Software (Pty) Ltd to the value of R123, 594.92 was made to fraudulent bank details. The bank details were submitted to ACSA SSC on 25th August 2010 – reflected as Absa Bank. |
No loss of cash by ACSA. The above was reported to SAPS ref: CAS 193/11/2011 on 17/11/2011 at OR Tambo. Note: A company-wide investigation on the state of payments and possible irregularities was launched using Deloitte during 2012. |
|
20 June 2011 |
An anonymous call was logged on the Tip-Offs Anonymous Hotline on the 20th of June 2011 whereby the following allegations were made regarding the maintenance of the Public Address system tender at O.R. Tambo International Airport (ORTIA). |
Internal Audit could thus not find any conclusive evidence which would indicate that the process was not equitable and transparent. |
|
01 August 2012 |
This investigation was referred to Internal Audit by the Group Executive: Commercial on 01 August 2012. This request came about after a tender (IDA/11/11) of the ORTIA Arts, Crafts and Curio Retail Stores was cancelled and notifications to this effect dated 20 March 2012 were sent to the two Bidders. |
The bases used for the cancellation of the Tender were valid as per ACSA Procurement Policy; however, the process followed by ORTIA Procurement to cancel the Bid had general weaknesses and flaws that were observed. Corrective active was recommended and implemented. |
|
30 July 2012 |
This report relates to the investigation conducted after a tip-off was received by Internal Audit on the alleged unauthorised removal of some furniture from the premises by an employee. |
The evidence available indicates that the employee removed the furniture from the ACSA premises without approval and did not intend to return them. Disciplinary action was launched and recommendations implemented. |
|
19 February 2013 |
A call was logged in relation to the following allegations:
|
The following recommendations were put forward: The King Shaka Electrical department team are experiencing challenges with regard to team dynamics, as is evident in the allegations regarding favouritism and preferential treatment. This is compounded by the fact that there are aspects of policies and procedures which have not been adhered to particularly as it relates to overtime. In addition the conduct with regard to procurement related aspects also indicates non adherence to policies and procedures. These non-adherences may be construed as subversion to the system of internal controls. Subversion of the system of internal controls could lead to irregular transactions being perpetuated and remaining undetected which will result in financial losses for ACSA. We recommend that King Shaka International Airport (KSIA) management act decisively and swiftly on matters and recommendations noted during this investigation and raised in this report. This will contribute towards the cultivation of a culture of compliance to the Policies and procedures throughout its business. |

12 November 2014 |
PORT ELIZABETH AIRPORT: Caller alleges that an employee from the airport is accepting bribes from baggage wrapping company. |
|

OR TAMBO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT: An employee complained of nepotism regarding the appointment of a person into a senior position in the Human Resources department. |

|
29 September 2014 |
KIMBERLEY AIRPORT: A caller alleged that a security officer is using an administrator PIN code for making telephone calls instead of the personal PIN code assigned to him. |

|
16 September 2014 |
OR TAMBO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT: A caller alleged that a senior buyer at the airport is disqualifying bidders from the grass cutting tender for no apparent reason. Another employee from Surface Maintenance excused himself because he did not want to be part of a panel corrupting people. |
Upon request from the OR TAMBO General Manager, the CEO approved that an investigation be conducted by SNG. The investigation has been concluded and the report issued to EXCO and Audit and Risk Committee. Disciplinary action was taken accordingly and recommendations were implemented. |
|
12 September 2014 |
OR TAMBO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT: M&E requested and received a quote via the SSC, for disposable ear protectors that appeared high in value. Furthermore, the recommended supplier was not in the business of selling such goods. M&E challenged the SSC about this and obtained their own quotation which was 7.5 times less than the quote. It appeared that an employee in SSC could be conflicted as the name supplied on the SSC quote belonged to an employee that was actually a buyer for ACSA. |
A director check with the CIPC/CIPRO indicated that the employee implicated was not a director or shareholder in the company referred to in the allegation. No further investigation is required in this matter. |
|
28 August 2014 |
OR TAMBO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT: A passenger on an international flight ordered a cup of tea at the coffee shop while waiting to board. After having the tea he “woke” up and realized he had missed his flight and experienced further drowsiness. He alleged that the waiter had drugged him. |

|

|
14 August 2014 |
OR TAMBO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT: An employee working in the Property department at OR Tambo International airport collected rent monies from tenants and pocketed the cash instead of declaring it as income received. |
Investigations revealed that an ACSA employee was collecting rent from cargo companies. The employee was suspended while management conducted an investigation to determine the extent of this fraud matter. Internal HR interventions have been finalised and employee dismissed. |
|
12 August 2014 |
OR TAMBO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT: A caller alleged that there are copies of an upcoming tender for the upgrade of CCTV cameras floating around. He was alleging that ACSA is already approaching certain vendors in order to give them an advantage over others. |
Internal Audit consulted with SCM and was informed that the tender has not yet been finalised for issue. The RFP document was still in draft as SCM were finalising the technical specifications and evaluating criteria for the tender. Hence there was no way that a copy of the document could be in circulation in the public domain. |
|
04 August 2014 |
OR TAMBO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT: The caller stated that a friend she met on a dating site sent her a parcel from the UK containing money and diamonds to the value of R1.2m. He requested various amounts of money, gradually increasing his demands in order to have the parcel released. |
Internal Audit met with the caller and suggested that the matter be raised by her with the SAPS Commercial Crimes unit as well as SARS as they are better equipped to deal with her matter. The modus operandi is very similar to the 419 scams that have been comprehensively covered on TV documentaries, newspapers and the radio. |
|
28 July 2014 |
CORPORATE: Two senior employees from the Strategic Planning and Projects Division left the employ of ACSA and joined a company who submitted a bid and won part of the tender. It was alleged that the two employees could have influenced the submission. |
The ACSA BEC did identify the two employees during the tender evaluation process and obtained a legal opinion on the restraint of trade and cool-off periods applicable to these employees. The legal opinion stated that since no restraint of trade or cool-off period agreements were signed with these individuals, ACSA could not prevent them from seeking employment after termination of their services or prevent them from forming part of a company that was bidding on tenders to provide goods and services to ACSA. |
|
15 July 2014 |
KIMBERLEY AIRPORT: A caller alleged that airport staff was using a company vehicle for personal errands around town. |

An investigation was conducted by SizweNtsalubaGobodo (SNG). The investigation is complete and the report issued to management, and Audit and Risk Committee. The allegations made by supplier could not be substantiated with evidence. The SAPS had declined to prosecute due to insufficient evidence to substantiate the claims made by the supplier. The employee went through an internal disciplinary process. The whistleblowing policy was updated and approved by the ARC and the BOARD. The policy also includes a clause that deals specifically with calls made in bad faith. |
|
15 April 2014 |

|

The kiddies’ ride had a contract that was not yet signed. No payments were received for the seven (7) months that these rides operated at the airport. Although no fraudulent activity was identified, Internal Audit recommended that management look at disciplinary process relating to non-adherence to ACSA policies and procedures and weak administrative controls. Recommendations were implemented. |

Reply:
1. (a) (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) The MDDA publishes advertising revenue generated by each small community print media project which is supported by the Media Development and Diversity Agency (MDDA) via the Milele Group and the Government Communication Information System (GCIS) in its annual report. These are available on request. The MDDA does not have direct access to detailed advertising income until it receives annual reports from media buyers and the GCIS. To provide a comprehensive breakdown per community print project requires a survey in order to give justice in responding to this question as we do not have readily available information within the specified time.
(b) Information on advertising revenue generated by each small community print media project which is supported by the MDDA via the Milele Group and the GCIS is consolidated on an annual basis for publication in the MDDA annual report. The MDDA does not have direct access to detailed advertising income until it receives annual report from media buyers and the GCIS. To provide a comprehensive breakdown on advertising revenue generated per community print project since 1 April 2016 requires a survey in order to give justice in responding to this question as we do not have readily available information within the specified time.
2. (a) Yes, the MDDA has succession plans in place to assist small community print media projects in mitigating instabilities affecting the delivery of planned targets, via established partnerships to capacitate the print sector on content development.

NW2563E
Reply:
1) Ward committees are dissolved by local municipal councils in line with the Local Government Municipal Regulations for the Term of Office of Ward Committee Members (2009). The Regulations seek to regulate the implementation of section 75 of the Local Government: Municipal Structures Act, no.117 of 1998, which provides for the alignment of the term of office of ward committees to that of municipal council (5 years).
(2)(a)In line with section 75 of the Municipal Structures Act all ward committees across provinces and municipalities were dissolved and ceased to exist from 3 August 2016 with the exception of two local municipalities in the province of Kwazulu Natal.
Ward Committees in the two municipalities were allowed to serve beyond the approved term of office to ensure and allow for smooth transition and provide hand over reports to new councils and were only dissolved at the end of September 2016.
The following are the municipalities where ward committee served beyond the approved term of office:
- Ingwe Local Municipality, and
- Emadlangeni Local Municipality

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.

Grootboom, Mr GA to ask the Minister of Arts and Culture

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.

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

Cassim, Mr Y to ask the Minister of Transport
(1)(a) Why did the SA National Roads Agency invite tenders for the demolition and reconstruction of the weighbridge at Senekal in the Free State, (b) which companies submitted bids for the specified project, (c) what amount did each company bid, (d)(i) which company was awarded the contract and (ii) why, (e) what are the time frames for the project, (f) what amounts have been paid to date, (g) why was the project stopped and (h) how will the project be completed; (2) how are overloaded vehicles weighed in the meantime?
Reply:
1. (a) The Free State Department of Transport and the South African National Roads Agency SOC Limited (SANRAL) have an overload control agreement which allows for the provision and upgrading of weigh bridges along the national routes in the Free State Province. The objective is to ensure that vehicle loads are within the legal limits; as to preserve the road infrastructure. The Senekal Traffic Control Centre was one of the traffic control centres which was identified for upgrading. The existing facility was limited in terms of size and capacity and was not sufficient to provide effective overload control. The demolishing and reconstruction proved to be more cost effective than changing the existing facility to the extent required. SANRAL went out to open tender for this upgrade, as required in terms of the Treasury Regulations.
(b),(c) The construction companies that submitted tenders and their tendered prices are listed in the table below:

Mackenzie, Mr C to ask the Minister of Telecommunications and Postal Services
With reference to the R149 107 000 incurred for fines and penalties listed in the SA Post Office’s 2015-16 Annual Report, ( a) which entities levied the fines and/or penalties, (b) what are the respective amounts and (c) what was the reason for each penalty and / or fine incurred. (2) Whether any of the specified penalties and/or fines have been recovered; if not, in each case, why not, if so, in each case, (a) from which entity were the penalties and or/ fines recovered and (b) what amount was recovered in each case?
Reply:
I have been informed by the South African Post Office (SAPO) as follows:
1. (a) The entities that levied penalties are the Payment Association of South Africa (PASA) and Telkom.
(b) The total amount of penalties incurred was R1 million. The remaining R148 million of the R149 million in question relates to a provision for possible VAT liability.
(c) The penalties were levied due to late payment by SAPO and this was due to constrained cash availability.
2. (a) and (b) No specified penalties and/or fines have been recovered because there is no basis for the recovery. The penalties were levied on amounts for which work was done for SAPO. In the case of PASA, the organisation regulates banking and card transactions on behalf of the South African Reserve Bank (SARB). In the case of Telkom, the entity rendered telephony and data services to SAPO. In the case of provision for a possible VAT liability, SAPO has made the calculation based on a worst case scenario in terms of the VAT Act and it has requested the directive from the South African Revenue Services (SARS) to obtain certainty on the assumptions to be made in the calculations.

Masango, Ms B to ask the Minister of Social Development
(1)Whether the cards used by the current social grant recipients to receive their social grants each month will expire when the SA Social Security Agency’s (SASSA) contract with Net1 comes to an end on 31 March 2017; if not, why not; if so, what plans have been put in place to ensure that the specified recipients can access their grants once the specified contract ends; (2) (a) what are the relevant (i) details of the transitional plans that (aa) her department and/or (bb) SASSA have put in place to ensure that there is no interruption in the distribution of social grants to the grant recipients once the contract with Net1 ends on 31 March 2017 and (ii) details of the processes that will be involved for the grant recipients, (b) from which budget will the specified transitional plans be funded and (c) which of the various work streams set up by her department to action the transition of the distribution of social grants from Net1 to SASSA will be in charge of ensuring the smooth (i) operation of the transitional plans and (ii) distribution of social grants?
Reply:
(1) I would like to inform the Honourable Member that the SASSA beneficiary card has two encryptions, namely the UPS encryption which expires in March 2017 and the MasterCard encryption which expires in December 2017.
(2) With regard to the transitional plans, I have already informed the Honourable Member of the work currently underway through the five work streams to oversee this process and to ensure a smooth transition that will ensure a seamless transition and that no single beneficiary will be negatively affected by this transition.
