Amendments were effected to certain policies, as discussed and agreed by the Board.
1b. The Assistant Company Secretary would be required to assist with training and development and facilitation with the organisation. The incumbent would need to support the Company Secretary particularly in the areas of writing, amending and collating Board and Committee policies and procedures. This required someone with an educational background.

Mokoena, Mr L to ask the Minister of Mineral Resources
(a) How does his department intend to deal with zama-zamas and (b) how will the outputs of this plan be measured?
Reply:
(a) The department has established provincial illegal mining stakeholder forums in Mpumalanga, Free State, Gauteng and Northern Cape Provinces. Various stakeholders such as government departments (i.e. National, Provincial and local government), law enforcement agencies, mining companies, unions and associations, municipalities, certain SOEs, refineries and organized communities participate in these forums. Physical activities such as closure of open mine holes, arrests, prosecutions and convictions, deportations, disruptive operations and encouragement of land use/occupation have been conducted which led to a significant decrease of this practice. The illegal mining space is decreasing which result to illegal miners fighting for the remaining limited space and resorting to other crimes.
(b) The above mentioned Provincial Stakeholder Forums have action plans of which the output is measured against the action plan. Since the establishment of the Provincial Illegal Mining Stakeholder Forums progress has been made on combating illegal mining activities. The following has been achieved through the Provincial Illegal Mining Stakeholder Forums:
- Illegal miners were arrested and continued to be arrested and convicted.
- Illegal imigrants who are also involved in illegal mining activities were arrested and continued to be arested and deported.
- Mining permits have been issued to mining companies to conduct legitimate mining in areas that were infested with illegal mining.
- Most of the open holes and open shafts where illegal mining was taking place have been sealed, rehabilitated or closed.
- Land where illegal mining was taking place has been rehabilitated and used for development.
- People were employed through rehabilitation and shaft sealing projects.
- Conviction rates have increased from 2 months to 8 years.
- Reef outcrop and sub-oucrop areas where illegal mining was taking place has been succesfully mined and continued to be mined by legitimate mining companies.

The Minister of Mineral Resources released a statement on 01 September 2016. This was followed by an interview on SABC news on 02 September 2016. The Minister was not speaking in his personal capacity but in his capacity as Chairperson of the IMC. On 13 April 2016, Cabinet established an IMC to consider allegations that certain banks and other financial institutions acted unilaterally and allegedly in collusion, when they closed bank accounts and/or terminated contractual relationships with Oakbay Investments. The Minister recorded recommendations made to Cabinet by the IMC as well as the related resolutions taken by Cabinet at its meetings of 06 July 2016 and 31 August 2016 respectively. The IMC made 5 recommendations to Cabinet. 4 of the recommendations were approved by Cabinet and 1 was referred to the President for further consideration as it was not within the purview of Cabinet to take a decision on the matter. The Minister is not at liberty to make any further statements on this matter.

2(a) Considering the timeframes provided for in Regulation 74, it takes approximately 120 days to process and finalise internal appeals in the prescirbed manner. The attainment of this period is dependent on number of appeals received during a given period as well as the complexity of such appeals and capacity constrains. The 2010 Constitutional Court judgement in Bengwenyama held that internal remedies must exhuasted before judicial review proceedings may be instituted. This led to the lodgement of significantly more appeals than before as more applcants were required to exercise internal remedies.
2(b) Action Plans:
- There is a continuous liaison with internal and external parties involved to expedite conclusion of the Regulation 74 process which appears to be yielding positive results.
- From time to time, the Office of the State Attorney is requested to assist with the finalisation of certain appeals.
- While implementing the above measures, historic appeals are prioritised.

Mahlangu, Mr JL to ask the Minister of Mineral Resources:
With regards to the evaluation of safety at Lily Mine in Mpumalanga South Africa, the world and the community members of Mpumalanga were shocked with the incident that occurred in Lilly Mine in Nkomazi Mpumalanga where 3 mine workers went down 80m into a sink hole. The communities across the country shared a hope and anxiety of the families and miners at Lily Mine that are distraught. In your recent media and public announcement you made the point that it will take between 6 to 8 months for the rescue team to reach the container. Up to the date “The families of Mnisi, Mazibuko and Nyerende are still in our prayers and we trust that the emotional and psychological support they are receiving will assist them to cope with the traumatic experience.
Reply:
The question is:-
- Whether the department was aware that the container office was actually located in such a dangerous location.
A formal investigation is underway in terms of the legal provisions and will assist in identifying the underlying causes of the accident. On completion of investigation, recommendations will be made to prevent similar accidents.
2. Is it your expectation the mine would have known that the container is in a dangerous location.
The above-mentioned formal investigation will assist in identifying the underlying causes of the accident.
3. Has your department conducted assessment on other mines in the country to determine that no such dangers await other mineworkers?
The mine inspections and audits are continuously being conducted with the aim of preventing harm on the mineworkers.
In a case where sub-standard condition, act or non compliance to the provisions of the Mine Health and Safety Act is observed during a mine inspection or audit, appropriate actions are immediately taken to remedy such conditions.
4. If yes which mines? If not why not?
The mine inspections and audits are conducted at all the operating mines.
5. Do we have assurance that such or similar accident will not revisit the country
We endeavor to prevent mine accidents from occurring and lessons learnt from the above-mentioned investigation will be used to improve safety in the mining sector.
6. Does the country have requisite skills to deal with disasters of this nature?
South Africa has the requisite skills to deal with disasters at mines and our country’s Mine Rescues Services (MRS) assisted in the Chile Mine disaster in which 33 trapped mine workers were rescued successful after 69 days.
7. If yes where is it located, and why do we find ourselves in this situation like it is at Lily Mine where it will take close to a year to reach the container where miners are trapped?
At the Mine Rescue Services of South Africa. The rescue operations have not been abandoned but options which will ensure safe rescue operations are being pursued. This is as a result of the deterioration of ground conditions at the mine.
8. If not why don’t we have such capacity?
South Africa has the requisite skills and capacity.
9. Who is thus responsible for the situation that we find ourselves in?
The accident investigation will assist in identifying the underlying causes of the accident.
