QUESTION 3303

INTERNAL QUESTION PAPER [No 42-2012]
DATE OF PUBLICATION: 23 November 2012

3303. Mr W M Madisha (Cope) to ask the Minister of Rural Development and Land Reform:

(1) Whether, with reference to the new five-step land reform plan which was announced on 23 October 2012 (details furnished), the district land reform committee will replace the land valuer-general; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so,

(2) whether he intends to amend the Green Paper on Land Reform; if not, what is

the position in this regard; if so, what are the relevant details;

(3) whether he will make a statement on the matter? NW4190E

THE MINISTER OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT AND LAND REFORM:

(1) No. The district committees will strengthen co-ordination of rural development and land reform at that level.It is envisaged that the committees will form an integral link, at a district level, in terms of the work that will be undertaken by the Department of Rural Development and Land Reform, and the new institutions proposed in the Green Paper on Land Reform, namely the Land Management Commission, Office of the Valuer-General and the Land Rights Management Board.

(2) No. There is no need to amend the Green Paper on Land Reform. The proposal to establish local committees will serve to enhance the implementation of the new trajectory for land reform, as envisaged in the Green Paper. The local committees will also contribute to the achievement of the three principles for land reform set out in the Green Paper, namely:

- De-racialisation of the rural economy for shared and sustained growth;

- Democratic and equitable land allocation and use across gender, race and class; and

- Strict production discipline for guaranteed national food security.

(3) No.

ze:10�M ;o�C� `� :Arial'>

· Moreover, the plan proposes a central point where all challenges will be raised and a united intervention approach is pursued. This may include a review of grant frameworks, business plan or project implementation plans. Such a step will enhance monitoring and evaluation, but also afford the National Department of Health to assist earlier.

Transfer of funds to non-profit institutions and conditions

The Department of Health has transferred funds to the provinces in the last three months within specified time-frames as stipulated in the payment schedule. However, there were certain challenges that were experienced in the first quarter which resulted to the delays in the provincial transfers. Some of these challenges relate to the late promulgation of the Division of Revenue Act, 2012.

QUESTION 3229

INTERNAL QUESTION PAPER [No 41-2012]
DATE OF PUBLICATION: 16 November 2012

3229. Mr R A P Trollip (DA) to ask the Minister of Rural Development and Land Reform:

(1) Whether his department is involved in any food production initiatives on (a) revitalised parastal land, (b) communal land and (c) land reform properties; if not, which departments are responsible for soil preparation, planting, cultivation and harvesting of crops planted on specified land; if so, (i) what are the relevant details of his department's involvement and (ii) how many hectares of land have been prepared, planted and cultivated on the specified land;

(2) what is the (a) average production yield per hectare of all relevant crops planted and (b) total cost per hectare compared to the value of the crops harvested for the past two financial years;

(3) whether local communities are entitled to benefit from the crop yields on such land; if so, for the (a) 2010-11 and (b) 2011-12 financial years, (i) which communities benefited, (ii) in what way did they benefit and (iii) what is the total value of these benefits to each community; if not,

(4) whether the crop yields resulted in departmental revenue; if not, what is the position in this regard; if so, how was this justified? NW4117E

THE MINISTER OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT AND LAND REFORM:

(1)(a),(b),(c) Yes. The Department of Rural Development and Land Reform (DRDLR) is involved in food production initiatives taking place in different land tenure systems e.g. communal land and land reform properties, together with other Departments such as the Departments of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, of Health, of Social Development, Provincial Departments, Non-Governmental Organisations (NGO) etc.

(i) DRDLR provides diverse services including funding for activities such as soil preparation, planting, cultivation and harvesting of crops planted on specified land. In recent years, the sustainability of Land Reform programmes has come under critical review both within and outside of government. In line with the recommendations of the latter reviews, the DRDLR introduced the Recapitalisation and Development Programme (RADP) as a strategic land reform intervention. The RADP focuses on rural areas that have received either limited or no agricultural development support since 1994, with potential to grow if afforded necessary support. The support extends to Land Reform farms, irrigation schemes and communal land. 696 projects were assisted in terms of the RADP since inception of the programme and this includes eight irrigation schemes in communal areas. In areas where government and NGOs have no national or provincial collaboration, government or the NGO will do land preparations, planting, crop management and post harvest activities working together with the beneficiaries or existing stakeholders. In most case communities are encouraged to take charge of their food production with the assistance of extension officers and government agencies like the Agricultural Research Council. In some cases service providers are appointed to work with the community to cultivate their crop fields.

(ii) The Department facilitated the planting of over 10 000 ha of crops consisting mostly of maize followed by wheat, sugar cane and lucerne. The highlights on the supported projects in line with the commodity approach per province include the Free State province who planted 4 808 ha of maize followed by the North West province with 4 161 ha planted. A total of 728 ha of maize has been planted in the Eastern Cape province. In terms of the crop production programme on CRDP sites, 3 769 ha of land was planted in the 2011-2012 financial year. Please refer to the table below for details.

Province	District Municipality	Number of Hectares Planted	Crops (in hectares)
Eastern Cape	OR Tambo	460 Ha	220 Ha sunflower 240 Ha maize
	Amathole	920 Ha	920 Ha maize
Free State	Thabo Mofutsanyane	400 Ha	300 Ha soya beans 100 Ha maize
Gauteng	City of Tshwane	225 Ha	100 Ha maize 115 Ha dry bean
KwaZulu-Natal	Mzinyathi	274 Ha	172 Ha maize 107 Ha sunflower
	Sisonke	173 Ha	108 Ha maize 65 Ha sunflower
Limpopo	Sekhukhune	400 Ha	400 Ha maize
Mpumalanga	GertSibande	400 Ha	200 Ha soya bean 200 Ha maize
North West	Dr K Kaunda	97 Ha	50 Ha maize 47 Ha sunflower
	Dr RS Mompati	333 Ha	133 Ha maize 150 Ha sunflower
	Ngaka Modiri Molema	87 Ha	87 Ha sunflower

(2) (a) - Maize: Expected yield is 4.2 tons/ha under dryland depending on the area and the level of soil fertility; and 12 tons/ha under irrigation depending on the area and the level of soil fertility;

- Sunflower: Expected yield of 1.12 tons/ha on dryland depending on the area and the level of soil fertility.

- In terms of the crop production programme on DRDLR's CRDP sites more than 1 320 ha of land was cultivated in the 2010-2011 financial year:

· 418 ha of wheat planted in Diyatalawa yielded 314 tons of wheat which was sold for R865 253.63. R396 000 was paid out to the 33 beneficiaries, each receiving R12 000. The balance was banked for the 2011-2012 planting season;

· 170 ha of soya beans in Makholokoe in the Free State yielded 27 tons which gave the community R54 000. The remaining production was mainly maize.

· In the 2011-2012 financial year the average yield of maize ranged from 0.5 to 3.15 tons/ha, soya bean 0.2-0.5 tons/ha, sunflower about 0.2 tons/ha and dry beans about 0.2 tons/ha.

(b) - The total cost to establish 1 ha of maize is between R4500-R5000 under dryland depending on the area and the level of soil fertility; and

- 1 Ha of sunflower is R4000-R4500 under dryland depending on the area and the level of soil fertility.

- The average cost of establishing 1 ha of maize under irrigation will be between R9000-R15000 depending on the area and the level of soil fertility.

- R20 716 764.00 was spent to plant 3 769 ha of land during the 2011-2012 financial year. Maize, soya beans and dry beans were planted at an average of R5 688.29 per ha. In provinces such as the Eastern Cape and KwaZulu-Natal, weak fencing structures, lack of fencing in some instances and also local community dynamics resulted in livestock destroying the crops during the production cycle and in some cases animals let into the field intentionally. This resulted in poor harvests and even no harvest in some cases. Communities that harvested did so mainly for their own use and not for sale.

(3) Yes.

(i) Land Reform beneficiaries and rural communities selected by the Village Committees and the owners of the crop fields benefited.

(ii) Beneficiaries were entitled to the net profit generated in the farm, a portion of the harvest for household consumption, mechanisation inputs, and they also benefited from infrastructure development on their farms.

(iii) The total value of the project is determined through the approved business plan and each project is unique in terms of interventions required and profit margins to be generated. On average however, in cases where harvesting took place, each beneficiary received a minimum of R2 000 and a maximum of R6 000, from the proceeds of the sales. The balance will be used for the 2012-2013 planting season.

(4) The Department does not benefit from the revenue. The position is that the beneficiaries should reserve part of the revenue to ensure sustainability of the projects i.e. funding for the subsequent production cycles.

3190. Mr D A Kganare (Cope) to ask the Minister of Rural Development and Land Reform:

(1) Whether, with reference to his reply to question 2205 on 25 September 2012, the specified land claim was settled by the end of October 2012; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details;

(2) whether the beneficiaries were informed; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details? NW3962E

THE MINISTER OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT AND LAND REFORM:

(1) No. The office of the Regional Land Claims Commissioner: Free State (RLCC: FS) needed to conduct further research on the claimed land due to lack of information relating to the history of dispossession from the claimants.

(2) Yes, a meeting was held between the officials of the RLCC: FS and the beneficiaries on 2 August 2012 for the purpose of collecting oral evidence in relation to how the dispossession took place. The evidence emerged that Ms Maria Senoga and her 3 late children lost rights in 1918 when a certain Mr Flanagan erected a fence on their farm and left the family with a small portion. This made it impossible for the family to continue with agricultural activities on the farm. The beneficiaries further informed the officials that the rights lost during the dispossession were ploughing, grazing and residential rights.

NW3206E

THE MINISTER OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT AND LAND REFORM:

(a) and (b)(i)-(ii) Please refer to the table below.

Farm/Property Description	(a) Who are the beneficiaries	(b)(i) How were the beneficiaries chosen?	(b)(ii) What selection criteria was applied?
Lanndon 495kt	Departmental records cannot confirm the existence of this property; it will be appreciated if the Honourable Member can provide further details to enable the Department to respond to the query regarding this property.
Willemprod 476kt: property	Departmental records cannot confirm the existence of this property; it will be appreciated if the Honourable Member can provide further details to enable the Department to respond to the query regarding this property.
Vaalhoek 474kt (Pilgrims Rest District of the Thabanche Municipality)	The farm is state-owned. Although not settled, the farm is under claim by the Pilgrims Rest Development Trust (PDT). DRDLR has entered into a lease agreement with PDT.		The farm is claimed in terms of the Restitution of Land Rights Act. Restitution processes are underway to transfer the land to the claimants. A strategic partner was appointed.
Rielvlei in Nkangala District	Mr Wilson Ngwenya (R/E 397 JS.)	Applications were made through the Department of Agriculture, recommended by the District Screening Committee and approved by the Provincial Grants Committee.	The applicant has experience in timber farming as he worked for the previous owner on the same farm.
	Ms Elizabeth Mlangeni (R/E of PTN 1 397 JS)	Applications were made through the Department of Agriculture, recommended by the District Screening Committee and approved by the Provincial Grants Committee.	The applicant has experience in timber farming as she worked for the previous owner on the same farm.
	Mr Nick Mahlangu( PTN 10 397 JS.)	Application made through the Department of Agriculture, recommended by the District Screening Committee and approved by the PGC.	The applicant had agricultural equipment i.e machines and livestock but no land to do agriculture.
	Mamusi Farming (PTN 4,397 JS.)	All heads of households residing on the farm and the heads of households of the claimants formed the co-operative.	The farm was leased to the co-operative to allow the processes of the claim to unfold with the hope that the farm will be restored to the claimants.
Perdekop Gert Sibande District	Fanyana Simon Motha	Chosen from the database based on the need as per commodity and area of preference.	Three potential lessees were selected from the database and were presented to District Screening Committee for recommendation to Provincial Grants Approval Committee for approval.
	Jonas Tshabalala	The farmer was already leasing from the previous owner; the application was submitted for screening by the District Screening Committee where it was recommended for approval.	The Province had taken a decision that where a farm is bought and is leased by a black farmer, there is no need to apply any selection criteria, especially if the farmer qualifies in terms of Land Reform and Proactive Land Acquisition Strategy policies. Furthermore if the farmer has proven that he/she can work on the farm as he/she has been doing, the assessment is only based on his/her potential to improve. Mr Jonas Tshabalala was already leasing the farm from the previous land owner and he was doing well. To allow continuity and because the farm was doing well, the Department did not want to lease the farm to a new beneficiary.
Kalkoenkrans Gert Sibande	Nicodemus Ramathuba and Jacob Sibeko (currently in a process of finalising the process of registering a legal entity)	The Department invited 13 commercial farmers listed in the Gert Sibande potential lessees database to prepare a proposal to be presented to a selection committee that comprises the Department of Rural Development and Land Reform, the Department of Agriculture, Rural Development and Land Administration as well as the Reference Group as observers of the selection process.	The following criteria was used: - Assets; - number of livestock; - clear plan for use of the farm; - business management skills; - farming experience; - ability to sustain jobs after Mr Scheepers left the farm; - ability to plant in the current planting season

1993. Mrs P C Ngwenya-Mabila (ANC) to ask the Minister of Rural Development and Land Reform:

(a) What successes have been achieved with regard to the prevention of evictions of farm workers and farm dwellers through the Extension of Security of Tenure Act, Act 62 of 1997, (b) what are the challenges in this regard and (c) what plans are (i) in place and (ii) being implemented to deal with these challenges? NW2400E

THE MINISTER OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT AND LAND REFORM:

(a) The Extension of Security of Tenure Act, Act 62 of 1997 (ESTA), was meant to prevent illegal evictions forcing anyone who wanted to evict farm workers and dwellers to follow procedures as laid down in the Act. The preventative nature of the Act is derived from the fact that it places certain obligations on both the government and the farm owners before any eviction could be granted. However great successes have been achieved in preventing illegal evictions. Since 2008 when the Department of Rural Development and Land Reform (DRDLR) established the Land Rights Management Facility, the strong emerging trend is that there is a sharp decrease in the number of illegal evictions and more compliance with the legislation.

(b) The main challenge is that there may be people who are not aware of the services offered by DRDLR due to their geographical locations such that they may be evicted illegally without the knowledge of the Department to assist. The second challenge revolves around the issue of enforcement, where law enforcement agencies do not always play their role resulting in lower convictions of perpetrators of illegal evictions.

(c) (i)-(ii) Together with the Land Rights Management Facility, DRDLR established a toll free number (0800 007095) to report evictions and there are ongoing awareness campaigns at provincial and district level. Furthermore, DRDLR is looking at strengthening the provisions of the Act and also generating more options for farm workers and dwellers to strengthen their rights through options such as Agri-Villages.

1992. Mrs P C Ngwenya-Mabila (ANC) to ask the Minister of Rural Development and Land Reform:

What progress has been made by his department to pursue rural development by empowering rural communities, especially women and youth, through facilitating and mediating strong organisational and institutional capacity? NW2399E

THE MINISTER OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT AND LAND REFORM:

On the youth front of the empowerment of rural people, the Department has the National Rural Youth Service Corps (NARYSEC) a combination of skills development, workplace readiness and job opportunity creation programme involving young people residing and making a living in rural settings. It is a long term skills development and job creation programme of government facilitated, coordinated and implemented by the Department in partnership with other national, provincial and local structures. Its intention is to ensure maximum value is derived from the skills and knowledge systems of rural populations. In the end, the enhancement of skills, the development of complete transferable competencies will improve the economic condition of rural areas and young people in particular. Close to 7000 Women has benefited from NARYSEC.

The Department is currently working on making the participation of rural youth organizations in the councils of stakeholders at our Comprehensive Rural Development Programmes sites a policy requirement. This will go a long way in empowering young people to take charge of their community developments.

To maximise job opportunities, the department is in the process of constructing various institutions through its Rural Infrastructure Development Programme, such as the Beaufort West Youth Centre with ICT and Recreational Facilities; Recreational facilities and cultural hub at Masia in Limpopo; and the Witzenberg Recreation Facilities and enterprise development centre.

To increase the skills base, including scares skills critical skills, the department established the I-School Africa project which currently provides access to ICT at 13 schools across the country.

The Departmental Youth Development Strategy provides a conscious and coordinated response to developing the capacity of rural youth to engage meaningfully in rural development and land reform programmes. It directly responds to the status quo, challenges and opportunities the youth are experiencing and offers strategic options for facilitating youth engagement and empowerment to achieve sustainable rural development and successful land reform.

The Department has furthermore mobilized rural women through the Self-Help Groups-Saving Model, e.g. "Dipontwana and through the formation of Cooperatives. 598 Women have been mobilized

Training were conducted in areas such as awareness raising on women's rights, training in agricultural products and animal care, vegetable gardening, hydroponics, animal husbandry, indigenous seed training, and lavender. 891 Women benefitted from this. In addition to this, 1236 Women have been trained in arts and crafts. They have also exhibited their arts and crafts at various exhibitions country wide which lead to exports to an international market.

Through the advocacy and exchange programmes, women are afforded opportunities to engage with departmental staff members in order to influence developmental processes and undertake exchange programmes, where women learn from each other. 3403 Women have engaged in these advocacy and exchange programmes.

Women actively participate in the decision-making in their rural areas through structures such as the Council of Stakeholders.

1877. Mr W M Madisha (Cope) to ask the Minister of Rural Development and Land

Reform:

What are the reasons for not considering mathematical literacy as a requirement for filling the Pupil Survey Officer post advertised by his department in the Sowetan dated 5 June 2012? NW2266E

THE MINISTER OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT AND LAND REFORM:

The curriculum for the Pupil Survey Officer (PSO) programme specifies that the mathematical requirement is Pure Mathematics in accordance with requirements set by the South African Qualifications Authority (SAQA), which has already been consulted and engaged on the accreditation of the PSO programme.

The purpose for introduction of Mathematics Literacy to the school curriculum was to facilitate a general understanding of Pure Mathematics, in order to accommodate those pupils that did not attain a sufficient proficiency level of Pure Mathematics, thereby ensuring that such pupils at least would have a broad understanding of basicmathematics principles, in order to perform simple calculations. This, however, would not enable the pupil to study mathematically orientated subjects, especially in the sciences.

The PSO course is intrinsically based on the subject of Land Surveying. Land Surveying is a science, for which Pure Mathematics is a fundamental requirement to enable the student to enrol for various scientific subjects that are underpinned by pure mathematical principles. Mathematics literacy falls extremely short of meeting such requirements, e.g. complex measurements, problem solving, data analysis and optical observations; these tasks require an understanding of algebra, trigonometry and calculus. The PSO curriculum accommodates these features to prepare, amongst others, candidates for a successful career pathing in land surveying, which is a scarce skill. Mathematics Literacy does not comprise these principles, but rather focuses on financially-related aspects that imparts knowledge on how (through basic mathematical principles), to purchase items, calculate various fees, interpret newspaper statistics, etc.

Since the inception of the PSO programme, a substantial number of graduates continue to follow a career path at universities of technology and in land surveying, which has an extremely pure mathematical leaning.

(1) Whether, with reference to his answer to question 145 on 26 March 2012, the Government's target of 30% of the land that has to be reallocated by 2014, still applies; if not, what is the new target; if so, what are the relevant details;

(2) whether the target date of 2014 for reaching this goal still applies; if not, what is the new date;

(3) whether the 30% of land to which reference is made refers to 30% of (a) all land, (b) agricultural land, (c) all land currently belonging to whites, (d) agricultural land belonging to whites, or (e) any other land; if not in each case, what is the position in this regard; if so, in each case what (i) land and (ii) are the further relevant details;

(4) whether he will make a statement on the matter? NW2120E

THE MINISTER OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT AND LAND REFORM:

(1) Yes. The Policy Speech of 2012, stated the following:

"Mr Speaker, I wish to take this opportunity to clarify this issue of the government's commitment to distribute 30 percent of the country's agricultural land by 2014. In 1994 South Africa had approximately 82 million hectares of white owned agricultural land. That is when the government set itself the target to redistribute 30% of this land to the previously disadvantaged by 2014. This constitutes approximately 24.5 million hectares of the said agricultural land. Up to the end of the third term of this democratic state, the government had acquired 6.7 million hectares of that land, which equals approximately 26% of that 24.5 million ha target. This figure does not include hectares of land for which the government paid financial compensation, either because people so chose, or because land could not be restored. Roughly, therefore, land which has been restored, from 1994/95 - May 2009, amounts to 6.7m ha + 882 238ha (land redistribution: 2009 to-date) + 368 483ha (restitution: 2009 to-date), totalling 7.950 721m ha. That is about 30% of the 24.5m ha targeted by 2014."

(2) Yes.

(3) (a), (b), (c) and (e) No.

(d) Yes.

(i) White owned commercial agricultural land.

Whether his department has taken any steps to encourage and facilitate the leasing of small farms or sections of bigger farms to enable new entrants to begin farming without the burden of purchasing land; if not, why not; if so, what are the relevant details? NW1890E

THE MINISTER OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT AND LAND REFORM:

All farms acquired under the departmental programme of Proactive Land Acquisition are leased at a rate related to the productive capacity of the land so that new entrants do not have the burden of purchasing land. The sizes of farms acquired vary across the country from small units in the intensive farming areas to larger farms in other areas. Where it is possible and practical to divide a property into further production units, the Department considers the leasing of sections of bigger farms to new entrants.

1440. Mr R A P Trollip (DA) to ask the Minister of Rural Development and Land Reform:

What is the current status of a certain land claim (details furnished)? NW1716E

THE MINISTER OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT AND LAND REFORM:

The land claim has been researched, gazetted, verified and valuated. The claimant originally opted for restoration of land. In 2009 the direct descendants of the originally dispossessed person had a dispute regarding the settlement option and issue of beneficiation.

Some of the direct descendants opted for land restoration whilst others opted for alternative redress in the form of financial compensation. The Commission on Restitution of Land Rights is unable to finalise the land claim due to varying settlement options which also resulted in a dispute among the beneficiaries.

The direct descendants together with the Commission must be in agreement in terms of section 14(3) of the Restitution of Land Rights Act, 1994, regarding the manner in which the claim should be settled. The said agreement will necessitate the Commission to request funds from the Minister in terms of section 42D of the Restitution of Land Rights Act, 1994 towards settlement of the land claim. This will only happen when the beneficiaries reach consensus on the manner in which the claim should be resolved and finalised.
