QUESTION NUMBER 1526

DATE OF PUBLICATION: 21 MAY 2010

1526. Dr D T George (DA) to ask the Minister of Finance:

Whether any cases referred to the Office of the Pension Funds Adjudicator were outstanding as at 31 March 2010; if not, why not; if so, (a) how many cases in total were outstanding for (i) 30 days, (ii) 60 days, (iii) 90 days and (iv) over 120 days and (b) what steps will he take to resolve the backlog? NW1782E

REPLY:

I am informed by the Office of the Pension Fund Adjudicator (OPFA) that there were 8696 cases referred to the OPFA which were outstanding (or open) on 31 March 2010.

The OPFA considers a file that is older than 9 months after close of correspondence or failed conciliation, a backlog. For clarification, once a complaint is received at the OPFA, it is assessed for proper formulation. If not, further information is sought. This often takes time as complainants are ill equipped to provide the necessary information. Only when the complaint has been properly formulated, will it be sent to the respondents in terms of the Act. Whilst the Act provides for a response within 30 days, respondents often delay or seek more time to formulate their responses. Once received, the responses are forwarded to the complainant for comment. Whilst a period of 14 days is allowed for the complainant to respond, this is seldom strictly adhered to by the complainant. Extensions are generally allowed.

A case may be indentified for conciliation. This process means getting parties to meet. Parties are allowed 21 days' notice to attend a conciliation hearing. However, there are often requests for adjournments, thereby further delaying the process of finalising the complaint. Only when all these processes are exhausted does the file find its way to the adjudication process. This may also require the seeking of further information or the joining of other interested parties. It is only thereafter that a draft determination may be prepared for final approval by the Adjudicator.

(a) Based on information from the OPFA:

(i) 30 days: 8 245 cases were open on 28 February 2010;

(ii) 60 days: 7 784 cases were open on 31 January 2010;

(iii) 90 days: 7 289 cases were open on 31 December 2009.

(iv) over 120 days: 7 216 cases were open on 30 November 2009.

The new Pension Fund Adjudicator, who assumed office on 1 April 2010, has instituted an audit of the entire system of cases referred to that office, and the above statistics are subject to this audit. Once completed, it is likely that the above numbers will be revised, for the following reasons: duplications (which were not currently identified); inconsistency of the data capturing; and files not being closed off on the system after their resolution. These problems were also exacerbated by the closure of the Cape Town office of the OPFA and its absorption into the Johannesburg office.

(b) The new Pension Funds Adjudicator (OPFA) assumed office on 1 April 2010, and has indicated to the National Treasury that he has since launched a program to deal with the backlog and improve the case management system, with instruction to staff that:

· Files that are outside jurisdiction are to be resolved within a week;

· Properly formulated complaints are to be dispatched to respondents within strict timelines;

· Where there is a need to resolve a complaint by guidance and referral to the correct forum, that this be done immediately.

The OPFA anticipates that the backlog will be eliminated within this fiscal year.

Since his appointment, the Adjudicator has released 136 determinations and the teams appointed to deal with the backlog and current case load have doubled their output to ensure that the strategic plan to eliminate the backlog within the year is achieved.

QUESTION NUMBER 1527

DATE OF PUBLICATION: 21 MAY 2010

1527. Dr D T George (DA) to ask the Minister of Finance:

Whether the South African Revenue Service pursued any cases with regard to prosecution of persons and companies for tax evasion; if not, why not; if so, (a) how many cases, (b) what is the tax amount in each case, (c) how many resulted in conviction and (d) what is the total amount of outstanding tax recovered? NW1783E

REPLY:

SARS has a range of punitive measures available to address tax evasion which are not limited to the pursuance of criminal prosecution only. Such measures include the seizure and forfeiture of goods or the equivalent value thereof, liquidations and sequestrations, additional taxes of up to 200%, penalties and punitive interest.

On average, SARS selects approximately 68 000 taxpayers for audit each year based on risk factors including verification of taxpayer declarations against information provided to SARS by third parties. During this process, the findings of audits identify risks warranting criminal investigation.

In terms of an existing memorandum of understanding with the South African Police Force (SAPF), SARS conducts criminal investigations on behalf of and in support of the SAPF. On average, SARS concludes approximately 500 criminal investigations per year. These cases are done in alignment with the capacity of the NPA to prosecute offenders. On this basis, there are currently 382 criminal investigations in progress.

In terms of another existing memorandum of understanding with the NPA which has a dedicated capacity to prosecute tax and customs related offences, SARS hands over completed criminal investigations for consideration of prosecution. There are currently 1584 cases awaiting consideration by the NPA.

In the majority of these cases, the outcome of the criminal investigation is that the taxpayer rectifies all non-compliance and pays all outstanding taxes, penalties (of up to 200%) and interest.

Other types of offences pursued by SARS include those related to the failure to submit tax returns or refusal to provide information on request to SARS. These cases also have the alternative option of an admission of guilt, provided by the NPA, which results in the disclosure of the required information to SARS and a payment of a fine ranging between R 300.00 to R 600.00 to the Department of Justice. On average, SARS conducts approximately 75 000 enquiries of taxpayers in this category per year. In most cases, when confronted by the possibility of criminal prosecutions, the majority of recalcitrant taxpayers immediately comply.

The following statistics relate to completed investigations that have resulted in criminal prosecutions and exclude cases currently ongoing within the justice system.

SARS Financial Year	Number of criminal investigations concerning serious offences resulting in prosecutions (trial only)	Number of criminal investigations concerning failure to submit returns or information on request resulting in prosecutions (trial or admission of guilt)	Actual amounts recovered by SARS as result of criminal prosecutions (excluding fines imposed by court payable to Department of Justice)
2007/2008	597	6789	R64, 000, 000.00
2008/2009	571	7555	R 6,730,000.00
2009/2010	299	8373	R48,000,000.00 (An additional amount of R 35,000,000.00 was also recovered by criminal investigators relating to outstanding PAYE)

QUESTION NO. 1528

DATE OF PUBLICATION IN INTERNAL QUESTION PAPER: 21 May 2010

(INTERNAL QUESTION PAPER NO. 14)

Ms E More (DA) to ask the Minister of Health:

(1) Whether a model has been developed for primary health care; if not, why not; if so, (a) what are the details of the model, (b) how is it being implemented, (c) when did it come into effect and (d) when last was it updated;

(2) whether all clinics in all provinces adhere to the primary health care model; if not, (a) why not, (b) which clinics in each province do not adhere, (c) which aspects of the model are not implemented in each case, (d) when will all clinics adhere to the model and (e) what will the cost be to ensure that all clinics adhere to the model; if so, what are the relevant details?

NW1784E

REPLY:

Since 1996 the South African Government has adopted a primary health care approach to health services. In order to concretise this approach, Government developed a comprehensive package of primary health care services for the whole country in 2001 together with set of norms and standards for PHC. The implementation of the package is mediated by service delivery platform characterised by mobile clinics, fixed facilities and community health centres (CHCs). Professional nurses are the primary providers of this level of care. Professional nurses are, in turn supported by sessional doctors, doctors from district hospitals and other allied health professionals. Where a facility is unable to provide a service, patients are transferred/referred to the next level, for example from a clinic to a CHC, or from a CHC to a district hospital principally within the same sub-district/catchment area.

There have been developments since the declaration of free PHC at the point of service in 1996. The health sector has been responding to various challenges such as the provision of prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission (PMTCT) of HIV and Multi-Drug Resistance Tuberculosis (MDR-TB) amongst other things. The National Department of Health has undertaken to review the model of service delivery in the country. In addition, the process of reviewing and revising the comprehensive package for PHC has been begun. This process reviews all the 26 service elements in the package.

There is every attempt to ensure that our service delivery platform (mobile clinics, fixed facilities and CHCs) increase access and coverage to our communities. Due to certain challenges such as human resource space, some facilities cannot provide the required package of service. For instance, the provision of cervical screening services is not possible in a mobile clinic. The infrastructure and other logistical considerations, i.e privacy and confidentiality) in a mobile clinic do not support this kind of service.

Furthermore, some of the facilities are managed by one professional nurse. In response to these challenges, the Department of Health, in consultation with all the relevant stakeholders, is developing a human resource development plan for the health sector to determine demand and supply of human resources for health in South Africa.

The Department is undertaking several audits during this MTEF period. One of these audits, i.e PHC Audit, addresses PHC package including infrastructure, equipment and human resources. The terms of reference for the PHC audit prescribes that the audit will give an "indication of the status of these facilities, services that are offered within these facilities and the capacity levels in which the PHC system is operating under".

The provincial departments of health are presently reviewing their service transformation plans (STPs). The finalisation of these plans would indicate what shape would service platforms look like in the broader public health sector.

The STPs, review of the PHC package, revision of the PHC model and the PHC audit outcomes will assist the Department to identify gaps in terms of different aspects of service delivery platform including the service elements. These gaps will contribute towards quantification of the costs of providing PHC under an emerging service delivery model.
