QUESTION NO 1796

DATE OF PUBLICATION IN INTERNAL QUESTION PAPER: 22 MAY 2015 INTERNAL QUESTION PAPER NO 15

“Adv A de W Alberts (FF Plus) to ask the Minister of Science and Technology:

(1)           Why has the SA National Space Agency (SANSA) not adopted Afrikaans as one of its official languages in terms of the Use of Official Languages Act, Act 12 of 2012, in spite of the fact that Afrikaans has an extensive lexis for technical space terminology at its command and the first South African satellite was developed successfully by an Afrikaans-speaking student at an Afrikaans-speaking University, namely Stellenbosch University;

(2)           (a) what was SANSA’s motivation for each individual official language chosen in terms of the Use of Official Languages Act, Act 12 of 2012, (b) whether each of these specified languages has an extensive lexis for technical space terminology at its command and (c) what contribution each of the specified languages has made to date to the expansion and development of South Africa’s space agency and programme?

NW2015E

REPLY:

(1)        In line with the Use of Official Languages Act (Act No. 12 of 2012), SANSA, like any other public entity, has to identify three official languages that it will use for government purposes.  The Department of Science and Technology has decided that the Department, together with its entities, will primarily use English as accepted “language of common use”.  The Department selected isiZulu and Sepedi given that these are “the most widely spoken first languages in the two biggest language groups (Nguni and Sotho)”, according to the 2011 census.  It should also be borne in mind that the Nguni language group (isiZulu, isiXhosa and siSwati) would generally understand isiZulu and, similarly, the Sotho language group (Sesotho, Sepedi and Setswana) would generally understand Sepedi.  This is not to down play the role of Afrikaans or any of the other official languages in science and technology communication.  In line with the South African National Constitution, SANSA permits the use of all eleven official languages in the normal life and operations of its employees at work.  This will continue and has never been prohibited.  Further, Section 4.2 of SANSA’s draft language policy makes it clear that “SANSA will not be restricted to the three languages of English, isiZulu and Sepedi in communications and may include any of the other eleven official languages should it deem it necessary.”  Therefore, selecting one or the other language to reach a targeted public community in a particular region or area is still permissible, budget permitting.  The desire is to reach as many of the country’s public communities as possible and not to exclude any specific language group.

(2)                    (a)        The motivation was the noble desire to reach the largest portion of the South African population as reasonably as possible.  This is not to say the other language groups are less important.  Indeed, more languages may be added in the future, funds permitting.

                        (b)        The intention is to develop the lexicon in these languages in these languages.  As per its Language Policy, SANSA will partner with University linguistic departments to provide assistance in terminology development and translation services. 

              (c)      South Africa’s past is such that the biggest language groups’ contribution to the country’s space programme has been limited.  However, in recent times, all eleven official language groups have since contributed to SANSA and the space programmes in various forms including in the form of being employees of SANSA, stakeholders of SANSA, and recipients of the products and services of the programme.

QUESTION NO. 225

DATE OF PUBLICATION IN INTERNAL QUESTION PAPER: 12 FEBRUARY 2015 (INTERNAL QUESTION PAPER NO. 01-2015): MEASURES TAKEN BY THE DEPARTMENT TO ENSURE RAPID DEVELOPMENT OF SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH UNDERTAKEN BY BLACK SCIENTISTS

"225. Mr NP KHOZA (EFF) to ask the Minister of Science and Technology:

 

With reference to the country's global scientific research output which is a mere 0.5% despite the many challenges that require rapid scientific advances, what measures has her department put in place to ensure a rapid development of scientific research, particularly undertaken by black scientists?"

 

NW246E

REPLY:

In 2005, the Department of Science and Technology (DST) commissioned the Academy of Sciences of South Africa (ASSAf) to look at measures that could be taken to ensure a rapid development of scientific research in the country.  ASSAf completed a study, "A Strategic Approach to Research Publishing in South Africa", in 2006, and made a number of recommendations.  Key recommendations that the DST is implementing with the ASSAf and the Department of Higher Education and Training include (a) facilitating open access to electronic journal databases for all researchers, and (b) strengthening indigenous journals through robust peer-review and accreditation mechanisms.

 

South Africa's scientific research has grown in the period between 2003 and 2012.  South Africa's research outputs in internationally peer-reviewed journals more than doubled in this period, with an increase from about 4 000 to 10 000, taking South Africa's contribution to global scientific research output from 0,5% to 0,7%.

 

With regard to ensuring the rapid development of scientific research undertaken by black scientists, the DST identified the need to develop a robust pipeline for a new generation of researchers, while increasing support for black emerging researchers.  Bursary support for postgraduate studies is key in the development of a new generation of black researchers, and research grants are key in the development of emerging black researchers.  

 

In 2013 the Minister approved a guideline document for the disbursement of bursaries, according to which 80% of all supported postgraduate students over the three years from 2015 to 2017 should be black.  This is a very ambitious target, taking into account that the percentage of black master's students supported increased from 53% to 55% between 2010 and 2013, while the percentage of black doctoral students supported increased from 52% to 56% in the same period.

 

Of the 7 728 black researchers and academics in South African universities in 2012 (out of a total of 16 944), more than three quarters (6 016) were at senior lecturer and lecturer levels.  This is the pool for our emerging researcher programmes.  The Thuthuka programme targets emerging researchers from historically disadvantaged backgrounds, namely, black people and women.  The National Research Foundation has invested approximately R200 million since 2008 in this programme, making a total of 1 058 research grants, with 698 (66%) going to women researchers and 594 (56%) black researchers.  The average research grant size has almost tripled in this period, increasing from R55 000 to R142 000, outstripping the average grant size for established researchers.

 

While black people are underrepresented in the established researchers' category, the Department aims to increase the ratio of black researchers receiving research grants from 28% in 2013/14 to 40% in 2016/17.
