RFA USA works withUK consultants on axle mass issue By Alan Peat In the battle against the department of transport (DoT) proposal to reduce the permissible single rear axle mass for freight vehicles from the current 9 000-kilograms to 8 000-kgs, the Road Freight Association (RFA) has now established a working relationship with

the consultants who are examining the proposal in terms of the department’s road freight strategy, according to the association’s technical and operations manager, Gavin Kelly. The truckers’ main complaint was that this shift would lead to an average payload reduction of 15.72% – varying between 2.45-tonnes and 5.62-t depending on the

size of the road rig. At the same time it would do nothing to cure the continued disintegration of the secondary road network – which was the DoT’s reasoning behind the mass reduction. This deterioration, said the RFA, was due to no periodic maintenance, repair or development having been done over the past few years,

and budget allocations for road works and road-user revenue streams having been appropriated for other programmes. A third reason cited was a lack of foresight and forward planning at departmental level – with the RFA pointing out that many roads were not originally built for either the weight or the traffic volumes now experienced.

Cato Ridge staging depot gains ground

Supply chain performance disappoints

By Joy Orlek

South Africa’s supply chain performance has once again failed the test in several critical areas, according to the 2010 edition of supplychainforesight, an annual independent study conceptualised and sponsored by Barloworld Logistics. See full report on page 3.

But, despite extensive efforts, there was an initial failure to get any sort of official response from the DoT, except an official hint that the letter outlining the proposal had been released pre-emptively – and was supposed to be examined in terms of the national transport masterplan (Natmap).

There are signs of practical progress towards the establishment of a staging depot outside the Port of Durban with a dedicated freight corridor providing speedy transit between port and depot. This follows the recent publication of a tender by the eThekwini Transport Authority inviting interested parties to undertake a route location and traffic impact study for a new road-based freight corridor between the MY

Port of Durban and Cato Ridge. And a sustainable solution to the access problem may well require that such a corridor be segregated from other roads in the vicinity of the port, according to an industry source. With road congestion outside the Port of Durban showing little sign of resolution, there’s been strong support for the establishment of a staging depot outside the port. It has been under To page 16

DUTY CALLS A weekly summary of the main changes to the South African tariff dispensation and amendments to customs and excise legislation. Email dutycalls@nowmedia.co.za.

Draft Customs Control & Customs Duty Bill – Today’s the Day Close of business today (February 26) is your last opportunity to comment on the draft Customs Control Bill and the draft Customs Duty Bill. Industrial Policy Action Plan - 2010/13 On 18 February 2010 the Minister of Trade and Industry, Dr Rob Davies, released the 2010/11 2012/13 Industrial Policy Action Plan (IPAP). According to Minister Davies the 2010/11 2012/13 IPAP, or the IPAP2 as it is now known, builds on the National Industrial Policy Framework (NIPF) and the 2007/08 IPAP. “The plan represents a significant step forward in scaling up efforts to promote long term industrialisation and

industrial diversification beyond current reliance on traditional commodities and non-tradable services,” said Davies. Preliminary Determination – Picks from India On 19 February 2010 a notice appeared on the preliminary determination in the investigation into the alleged dumping of picks originating in or imported from India. The application was lodged by Usseher Inventions (Pty) Ltd trading as Lasher Tools. According to the notice a preliminary determination was made that picks were being dumped on the Southern African Customs Union (Sacu) market. However it was also indicated that there was currently no threat of material injury to the

Sacu industry. Based on this, a preliminary determination was published to recommend to the Minister of Trade and Industry that he terminate the investigation. All interested parties are able to provide comments by 19 March 2010. Tariff Amendments – Sin Taxes In the Minister of Finance’s Budget speech he announced amendments to the customs duties and excise duties in Schedule No.1 Part 2A of the Customs and Excise Act (“the Act”), also known as “sin taxes”. The “sin taxes” refer to tobacco and liquor products. The Minister did not announce any changes to Schedule No.1 Part 2B of the Act, also known as “luxury taxes”. Farm Feed Regulations - Fertilisers The Department of Agriculture, Forestry and

Fisheries has published a notice in respect of the Regulations Relating to Fertilisers, Farm Feeds, Agricultural Remedies and Stockremedies, Sterilising Plants and Pest Control Operators, Appeal and Imports: Amendments. The 8-page notice contains a table titled “Fees Payable” which has two columns titled “Purpose”, and “Amounts Payable per Application”.

SA’s land transport costs among the highest Supply chain performance fails dismally – once again By Liesl Venter South Africa’s supply chain performance has once again failed dismally according to the 2010 edition of supplychainforesight, an annual independent study conceptualised and sponsored by Barloworld Logistics. The survey found that even though South Africa was rated quite highly in terms of ease of trade and infrastructural sophistication by the recently released second study by the World Bank on international trade flows, the country’s supply chain performance and infrastructure make it uncompetitive. “Despite the positive messages about our trade infrastructure, our ease of

doing business cross border is amongst the worst in our competitor group,” said Kate Stubbs, general manager: marketing for Barloworld Logistics. “In almost every area – clearance times, numbers of export and import documents, and quality assurance measures such as frequency of inspections – South Africa makes it relatively hard to do business,” said Stubbs. Speaking at the launch of the study last week, she said South Africa’s currency stability remained low and the rate of the GDP decline high. “The more dangerous aspects of our international competitiveness are seen in the areas of ports and airports, as well as land

Ports and airports ‘dangerously’ uncompetitive.

transport – our lead times are at best average, and our costs high compared to key strategic competitors such as Brazil, India and China. Indeed in the area of land

transport our export and import costs are the highest of the comparative group as a whole.” The study, which surveyed nearly 400 top executives in

the country, also found that South Africa’s emission standards were only worse than the United Arab Emirates, an oilproducing country.

Logistics firms focus on cost and waste reduction Major industries take a positive view By Liesl Venter Renewed commitment to efficiency and lean operations must be a priority for business in 2010, according to the latest supplychainforesight report sponsored by Barloworld Logistics. The survey found that while in 2009 CEOs were addressing the recessionary

conditions by aligning supply chain and business strategies, the focus of 2010 has definitely changed with industry looking at how they can become more competitive while approaching the upturn. According to Kate Stubbs, general manager: marketing for Barloworld Logistics, the research proves that the country’s

major industries are taking an optimistic and strategically positive view of the ways in which South Africa’s supply chains will enable recovery from the recession. “According to the study the short-term objectives of SA businesses in 2010 demonstrate a continued focus on cost and waste reduction. Lowering

Your fastest route to Africa

procurement costs, reducing their inventory, improving communication with customers and warehousing optimisation also came out as the top objectives for the next few months.” The study found that the top five challenges facing business in 2010 were the implementation of efficient planning and forecasting

tools, optimising the distribution network, waste and inefficiencies across the supply chain, potential failure of key suppliers and implementing a demanddriven supply chain. “There is definitely a continued focus on lean operations while the study shows a strong return to the basics of business following the recession,” said Stubbs.

New services could Innovative ‘Skiptainer’ puts bulk mine products back on rail be on the cards BY Joy Orlek

‘Helping reduce the total supply chain cost’ By Liesl Venter In line with its mission to address challenges around cost and logistical efficiency at all times, ICM Group has come up with an innovative solution for the movement of bulk products by rail – the new ‘Skiptainer’. Much as the name implies, this newly patented invention is a combination of a skip and a container that is easy to fill and empty, easy to load and offload and most importantly perfectly transportable on a flatbed rail wagon, says CEO Kiall Marsh. “We are heavily involved in the movement of minerals, but like many other companies found ourselves facing a major problem around the availability of bulk rail wagons. Also many of the mines don’t have their own railway sidings,” says Marsh. “In the past these two challenges have forced mines to move products by road. This not only takes place at a higher cost compared to rail, but also erodes margins and ultimately reduces how much export cargo leaves the country.” Much work went into the development of the Skiptainer. “Initially we had thought of using a normal container but after having to cut the top off and re-enforce it, we found it

Easy to load and offload and most importantly perfectly transportable on a flatbed rail wagon.

Kiall Marsh … ‘The Skiptainer can easily be loaded onto a truck at a mine with no rail siding.’

difficult to load and offload and the engineers had doubts about its durability. Further development led to the Skiptainer that is unique in its design and abilities.” According to Marsh the Skiptainer can easily be loaded onto a truck at a

mine with no rail siding and taken to the nearest railway station where it is loaded onto a flatbed rail wagon. “While there is a shortage of bulk rail wagons, there is an excess of flatbed rail wagons that we can now utilise efficiently. Simply put this is a specially designed container for moving bulk products around the country on flatbed rail wagons effectively creating our own bulk wagons.” And, says Marsh, there is no doubt that the Skiptainer will play an important role in reducing the total supply chain cost, while also improving logistics. “It also addresses the major issue around moving too much bulk mine product by road, by putting it back on rail.” Marsh says the company has commissioned 500 Skiptainers. This will allow them to move some 60 000 tons of mining product per month using the Skiptainer.

Safmarine is carefully monitoring its service portfolio, adapting to supply and demand patterns. “We have pulled out of the Transpacific and Australia trades,” says CEO Tomas Dyrbye, “but we are looking at all our services – not only with a view to terminating those that are not performing, but also opening new services to ensure that we have the best product in the market.” Details of possible changes are not for public consumption, although he acknowledges that Africa,

Tomas Dyrbye ... monitoring all services.

the Middle East and India are the line’s home turf.

Vessel replacement programme continues Safmarine’s vessel replacement programme will continue into 2012, with the first two of four multi-purpose vessels (MPV) due at the end of this year. The remaining two MPV vessels will be

delivered in 2011. A further three fully cellular vessels built for the Africa run are due in 2012, completing the line’s current programme which began two years ago.

Toll fees up in March Toll fees are set to increase from March 1 this year, the South African National Roads Agency Limited (Sanral) announced last week. Effective on all the national toll routes in the country, the increase is part of Sanral’s annual fee

adjustment and has been approved by the Minister of Transport, Sibusiso Ndebele. Sanral CEO Nazir Alli said that toll financing enabled government to add capacity (new highways or additional lanes) that could not otherwise be funded.

Lovemore adds packing and crating service By Alan Peat In a complementary addition to its well-established machine moving and rigging services, Lovemore Bros has now expanded its product range to include a professional packing and crating service. “In this,” packing and crating manager Thys Pienaar told FTW, “we offer a full in-house and

on-site packing service – meeting international standards in packing and securing methods, and in the materials we use.” There’s a wide-range of options in the service, varying from container, special equipment, breakbulk, and abnormal packing to crate manufacturing, corrosion and moisture control, foil/ vacuum bagging, securing

and plant relocations. And, like Lovemore Bros machine moving and rigging, the new pack-andcrate function is not just reserved for the local SA market, according to Pienaar. It follows what is now a common statement in the company: “We are based in SA, but we work anywhere in Africa.” Africa has now become

like the company’s backyard, according to Pienaar. “We know how to operate in these challenging conditions, and our teams are able to execute complex work in even the most remote locations.” And it’s not only a safeguard for valuable cargo under your control, he added, “but also for your organisation, your buyer and the insurance companies – and guarantees a completely

professional and successful transaction. “Just remember that insurance claims, resupply, further shipping costs, cargo damage and corrosion damage cost millions worldwide every year.” The goal at Lovemore, he added, is to continually improve and research the packing industry for more effective and innovative ideas.

CT forwarder gets double accolade Cape Town-based Broadspeed Logistics rather cleaned the boards at the latest award presentations at the World Cargo Alliance (WCA) network annual conference. The company took the “WCA Best Partner Africa” award for the second year running, and also won “The Top Agent of the Year 2009 Worldwide” award. These were presented

by WCA president David Yokeum to Broadspeed MD Paul Visser at a gala dinner in Bangkok earlier this year. The WCA is a grouping of independent freight forwarders – with 2 935 member offices in more than 574 cities and ports worldwide. Broadspeed Logistics was one of the founding members 12 years ago.

The winners are chosen through an online voting system, where members select what they consider the best partners with whom they work based on their quality, service, dedication and hard work. Said Visser: “For 21 years Broadspeed Logistics has concentrated on its core business of customs clearing, exports and worldwide forwarding.

“However, last year we had to change our strategy when the recession took us by storm. We reinvented our management, which gave us a dramatic and enduring shift in competitive advantage.”

US gives the green light to more SA fruit exports Grapefruit most likely to do well By James Hall South Africa is set to grow its fruit export volumes to the US after that country’s agricultural officials certified 16 districts in three northern SA provinces as pest-free this month, giving them clearance to export into the US. Growers in Free State, Northwest and Northern Cape Provinces have already targeted grapefruit as the product most likely to do well. Anticipating the US ruling, growers have planted about 500 hectares of new grapefruit trees during the past year. “There are some mature Valencia trees in those northern areas ready for export, but in terms of volume it will mostly be grapefruit because the US is allowing imported grapefruit into the country once its domestic sources from California, Florida, Texas and other states

have been exhausted,” Justin Chadwick, CEO of the Citrus Growers’ Association, told FTW. Along with the Citrus Research Institute in Nelspruit, the association worked with the US Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry to secure the new pest-free certifications that are prerequisites for exporting to America. “South Africa is the only major grapefruit producer that can supply the US market, and that is why so many growers in the newly certified districts are planting the crop – so they can service that window when domestic grapefruit isn’t available in the US. It’s a lucrative niche. Argentina is also a major grapefruit exporter, but the country doesn’t have the (pest-free) clearances,” Chadwick said.

George is Africa’s top airport By Ed Richardson South Africa has four of the five best airports in Africa, according to the annual ACI Airport Service Quality (ASQ) passenger survey.

It put George first, followed by Johannesburg (Oliver Tambo), Cairo, Port Elizabeth and Durban. The top airports in the world are Seoul Incheon International Airport (for

the fifth year in a row), Singapore Changi Airport, Hong Kong International Airport, Beijing Capital International Airport, and Hyderabad Rajiv Ghandi International Airport.

CFR grows airfreight division New web-based export tariff tool goes live By Joy Orlek Independent groupage operator CFR is continuing to focus on its airfreight division with the announcement of two new key appointments. Dave Gurney has been promoted to the position of Johannesburg airfreight branch manager based in Gauteng while Chilton Corrigall has been appointed airfreight manager of the Durban branch. Both have notched up several years of experience in airfreight consolidations, says airfreight general manager Dave Graham. “Our two biggest focus lanes at the moment are the US and Far East,” said Graham, “with special consol rates into and out of China, Hong Kong and all major US cities. “Despite the recession, the airfreight division recorded encouraging growth last year and 2010 is already looking

positive,” he added. As part of its focus on operational efficiency, the company has upgraded its electronic offering to customers with the launch on February 1 of a new webbased airfreight export tariff tool. “It’s very user-friendly,” says Graham. “The client merely types in the origin, destination and weight break and the system automatically generates the appropriate all-in rate based on CFR’s preferred carrier to that destination. “April 1 sees the launch of the next phase of the project – a similar airfreight import tariff tool.” CFR has spent the past few months streamlining its operational processes and and putting in place new performance measurement tools. “As a consequence our airfreight division is now running like a welloiled machine and we

We also have some exciting plans for the carrier in the coming months.” Set to be launched on March 1, Air Malawi will offer a courier product to the market. “It is one area that has been identified as lacking and implementing a niche product for the courier industry is an important step for the carrier.” Turketti says they hope to generate more volume for the airline with the new product. “We are also working closely with our customers to change the perception that there is not enough space on the aircraft for cargo.

TPT rates rise ‘ridiculous’

Congo Express launched

By Alan Peat

By Joy Orlek February 1 saw the launch of a new regional airline – Congo Express – serving the Lubumbashi to Kinshasa and Mbuji-Mayi routes four times a week. It’s a joint venture between Congolese company Biz Afrika Congo and regional carrier SA Express and takes place against a background of economic growth and stability in the DRC. A CRJ 200 aircraft is deployed on the route. Congo Express will roll out its operation in three phases, with details of phases 2 and 3 still to be revealed. SA Express’s long-term strategy in Africa is to transform air transport, stimulating markets and developing hubs,” CEO Siza Mzimela said. The airline has served the route between Johannesburg and Lubumbashi for six years, currently operating six days a week.

For the port operator Transnet Port Terminals (TPT) to push up its rates by 7% is “ridiculous”, according to Rhett van Zyl, MD of CMA CGM Shipping Agencies. Responding to TPTs proposed April 1 rates hike, he said: “It is ridiculous in today’s environment that TPT even thinks of increasing its rates when other port operators around the world

unacceptable.” He also fully agreed with a statement made to FTW by a prominent freight industry executive that the TPT rates announcement was only possible because of its monopolistic status. Van Zyl supported the standard free market maxim that, where a company held 100% control of a market, there was no competition element to restrain price levels or improve productivity levels.

The factory is expected to produce 50 000 tons of paste per year from 330 000 tons of fresh tomatoes that will be trucked in from the Gamtoos valley, Jeffreys Bay, the Sundays River valley, Somerset East, Fish River and coastal areas between Port Elizabeth and East London. Full production capacity is expected to be achieved

within three years and the paste, to be packed in drums, will be sold locally and exported probably through the neighbouring port of Ngqura. When it announced the plans for the factory, Cape Concentrate’s Gus Robinson said it would be one of the lowest cost producers in the world and the largest plant in Africa.

Airline promotion passes ‘anti-competitive’ test Do cash incentives compromise consumer’s fair deal? By Alan Peat A posse of airline cargo staff have been up in arms about an opposition carrier’s sales promotion – which they suspected of possibly “bordering on consumer malpractice and/or anticompetitive behaviour”. This was one of those nowadays common incentive promotions – suggesting that, if you maintained or bettered your normal air cargo volumes with the airline, you stood a chance of winning a big prize. With the Consumer Protection Bill having taken on a whole new meaning, the complainants wondered if the consumer could be said to be getting a fair deal under such a circumstance.

If the importer/exporter customer is expecting his freight forwarding agent to make the best choice of carrier, and the forwarder has an airline on a promo path dangling big cash sums or vouchers in front of his nose, the complainants asked FTW: “Is his judgment going to be in the interest of the customer? “Would it not be consumer

malpractice or anticompetitive?” As usual in the case of such a legal conundrum, FTW went off immediately to

telephonically pick the brain of a legal eagle in the field of freight and trade – and tossed the puzzler before Shane Dwyer, head of the shipping department at Durban lawyers, Shepstone & Wylie. “Mmmm,” he mused. “Might have faced a bit of a problem in the old days, under the Gaming Act, where you weren’t allowed to offer an

incentive – and then put the names in a hat. “But that’s not the case nowadays.” From the point of view of the Competition Act, Dwyer was even more brief. “It doesn’t contravene the Competition Act,” he told FTW. Indeed, he suggested it might actually be viewed the opposite way – that it was good, competitive practice for an airline battling for business in these tough times. “If it gets them more cargo than normal I’d say that it’s a pretty good idea,” Dwyer said. “And, if they want to be competitive, the only thing for other airlines to do would be to come up with a good promotion of their own.”

Job prospects begin slow recovery Contracts rather than permanent positions rule By Alan Peat Nobody in the personnel recruitment industry is getting too excited just yet, but the hints whispered to FTW suggest that better times may very well be on the way. The staffing services provider, the Kelly Group, was probably the least confident commentator, with a management release saying that – despite the opportunities presented by the World Cup and the cautiously optimistic outlook from many analysts – the employment sector traditionally lags the general economy by at least six months. It therefore felt that its trading conditions would remain depressed for most of the year. Amongst those “cautiously optimistic” observers of the employment situation was Jill Morris, director of Lee Botti & Associates. “We have noticed a definite increase in positions available since the beginning of the year,” she said, “with many clients needing to employ again following

Jill Morris ... clients remain cautious.

increased volumes.” But, she did warn that – although there is a more positive atmosphere in the market – clients remain cautious. “They are leaning towards taking on staff on a contract basis initially,” Morris added, “with a view to making them permanent should these increased volumes be maintained. This is also as a result of retrenchments that took place in 2009, where companies are unable to employ new permanent staff members.”

Dr Lynn Ribton-Turner of Ribton-Turner Recruitment, which specialises in freight and logistics recruitment, described 2009 as “a year of darkness”. “But now, in February 2010, the job market is experiencing the break of day,” she told FTW. During January, RibtonTurner suggested that she was unsure if the job orders would start to open up or whether caution would rule the market. “However,” she added, “the bottom line now is an increasing demand by employers for skills – with competent sales staff still a priority. “And, as the freight volumes increase, our clients are reassessing their need for ‘engine room’ staff – experienced, sound controllers for ocean/air imports and exports.” Ribton-Turner noted that the optimistic, positive clients were also driving forward and requesting talent in various operational, sales, financial and human resources management positions. “There is a definite sense of revival returning in the

market,” she said. But she also expressed agreement at others’ comments about temps. “Some companies are hesitating and looking for contract/temporary staff,” Ribton-Turner said, “perhaps restrained by IR/legal processes or alternatively preferring to put a toe in the water rather than leap in. “But we look forward to a healthy 2010 in terms of growth in trade and requirements from our clients for the employment of hardworking, competent and driven staff.” Rozanne Jansen van Vuuren of Durban-based Communicate Personnel is also convinced that this year will be better than last – and that the signs are already there with more placements, particularly in operations and sales. “January was very quiet,” she told FTW. “But things began to pick up into February, and are now going well. “For example, one of our consultants has just made three placements in one week – something that hardly ever happens.”

Carbon footprint needs a level playing field As the carbon footprint issue gains momentum, Safmarine has several interventions in place to reduce its emissions. “We take it very seriously,” says CEO Tomas Dyrbye. “Transport is energyconsuming and the technology is not here yet to move cargo without leaving a carbon footprint. But within the technology a lot can be done. “Slow steaming of vessels has reduced our footprint dramatically and all our newbuildings have emission-reduction specifications.” While the company has pledged to provide greater transparency in terms of its emissions policy, Dyrbye makes it clear that the same demands in terms of carbon efficiency must be placed on its competitors to ensure a level playing field.

Gordhan commits to investment in infrastructure By Ed Richardson

Pravin Gordhan ... ‘Freight volumes will stay depressed along with the rest of the economy for some time to come.’

Finance minister Pravin Gordhan recognised the crucial role played by the transport and logistics sector in his maiden budget speech on February 17. He also recognised that it was government’s role to create the infrastructure needed to keep the economy moving: “Public sector investment is a crucial component of development as it provides the infrastructure through which we transport goods, power the economy and connect

households and businesses to services and markets,” he said. Over the next three years, the public sector aims to spend R846-billion on its infrastructure programme. But, he added, there is more to come: “Extensive planning and consultation is in progress on infrastructure programmes for the next 10-20 years, in recognition of our long-term development challenges. “Upgrading our transport infrastructure and water supply capacity will account for around three quarters of

government investment.” Much of the remainder will be taken up by Eskom. It will, however, be a case of “user pays,” he said. “A significant proportion of the public-sector infrastructure investment programme will be undertaken by state owned enterprises and is not directly financed from the fiscus. “The costs of these investments are largely met by users, and will in several cases require higher tariffs to be phased in over the period ahead,” he said.

“Low and stable inflation is also essential to protect the living standards of workers and the poor,” he said, adding that the Reserve Bank would “continue to pursue a target for CPI inflation of three to six per cent”. However, exporters cannot expect the rand to weaken

in the near future, warned economists. “The budget was almost as rand friendly as it could be," said RMB's John Cairns. "The minister said that it had been agreed that SA needed a stable and competitive real exchange rate," Cairns said.

Exporters need inflation targeting South Africa’s global competitiveness is being affected by inflation, which is at a “higher level than our trading partners,” finance minister Pravin Gordhan told parliament in his budget speech. In a comment which drew criticism from the labour

movement, Gordhan said “a credible monetary policy framework that focuses on managing inflation is crucial to reducing long term borrowing costs and providing confidence about the future. “These are necessary to stimulate investment,

Revenue figures show impact of recession The extent to which the freight and trading industry has been hit by the global recession is shown in government’s revenue figures for the past financial year. According to finance minister Pravin Gordhan, government experienced “one of the most challenging periods for revenue collection since 1994”. Value-added tax – an indication of the health of the retail sector, which in turn keeps the wheels of the freight industry turning – was R22-bilion less than last year’s budget estimate, and over 5% lower than the year before. “Customs duties will be R6 billion below target,” he added – an indication of what both the fiscus and Transnet have lost through

reduced volumes through the ports. Exports dropped by over 20% last year, and imports by 18.3%. But, the government expects things to improve. Gordhan is budgeting for a 3.8% growth in exports and 6.8% increase in exports. Freight volumes will stay depressed along with the rest of the economy for some time to come, warned Gordhan and economists. Cees Bruggemans, chief economist of First National Bank, said the Minister may have been accommodative, and the economy in recovery, but for many the times will remain tough, particularly for the working and middle classes that form the “backbone” of our modern economy.

employment and competitiveness – particularly among exporters and import-competing industries. “At present our level of inflation is higher than that of our trading partners, which lowers our competitiveness.

Sars rethink on digital documentation Sars is considering changes to the current provisions of the Customs and Excise Act which “set strict requirements for user agreements and digital signatures,” according to the Department of Finance. In its expansion on the budget speech, it says “further development of Sars systems has highlighted

the need for more flexible alternative measures to secure user identification and access. “Although the current provisions provide a basic framework for alternative measures, it may be necessary to expand and clarify the framework.” At the same time, Sars is

using technology to verify claims. “In line with developments in the income tax arena, amendments will be considered to provide for the reporting of information by third parties for the purpose of verifying information submitted to Sars,” says the Department.

Transport industry targeted by ‘green tax’

Transport industry will feel the impact of additional 25.5 cents a litre fuel tax.

The transport industry is among those targeted by government as it uses “additional environmental taxes” to make up the shortfall in revenue and to clean up the country’s act.

Fuel is being taxed by an additional 25.5 cents a litre as part of government’s strategy to apply “appropriate pricing” to encourage industry to manage scarce resources

“more efficiently and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through appropriate pricing of energy,” finance minister Pravin Gordhan told Parliament.

Massive logistics project requires 150 police escorts By Alan Peat A joint exercise in transporting a massive “Meccano” set of steelwork from China to the new Sishen south iron mine in South Africa has just been performed by the global logistics company, Conceptum Logistics, and its new local partner, World Cargo Services (WCS), according to WCS director, Colin Atkins. With much of the iron ore to come from the mine being destined for China, he told FTW, it was no surprise that the steelwork supplied by Takraf for the bucket wheel reclaimer and two stacker reclaimers was manufactured in China. “We were contracted to transport this shipment from Shanghai and Tianjin in China via the Port of Saldanha,” Atkins added, “with that port being chosen in preference to Cape Town as substantial road works are affecting the roads leading out of the mother city.

FTW1886SD

“Although Saldanha has no port cranes, the ship’s gear of the PAC Adara was used for discharge – and these massive steel structures were unloaded in just 14 hours on November 7. The timing of the road haul was also critical. “With the December road closures for abnormal vehicles imminent,” Atkins said, “the challenge was to get all cargo, including some 45 abnormal loads, delivered to Postmasburg 1 300-kilometres away before the shut-down period began.” In the end, road traffic officials from both the Western and Northern Cape had to be brought in and over 150 police escorts were eventually used over a 21-day period. It was not all plain sailing, according to Atkins, with the “big” four loads just too big to risk on the Pikenierskloof pass, and a long and winding dirt road the only alternative. But, he added, Kumkani’s new super-abnormal rigs were equal to the task – and

the contract was completed without any incidents before the December shutdown. Right: Road traffic officials from both the Western and Northern Cape had to be brought in – and over 150 police escorts were eventually used over a 21-day period.

August we start negotiations with the Unions.” Three mandate sessions have also been scheduled between August and October this year during which RFA members will be given necessary information around the progress of the negotiations as well as the outcome. “Although there is no guarantee, October has been diarised as the month in which negotiations will have

been finalised and completed and a settlement around increases for 2011 reached. That new agreement will then be implemented on March 1, 2011.” D’Almeida said it was important that members attended the road shows, bringing their issues to the table. “It is important that the negotiating team is well-informed and represents the needs of the RFA members.”

Trucker wage talks to begin again By Liesl Venter The Road Freight Association is set to return to the negotiation table in August this year when talks around wage increases with Unions start. After heated negotiations in 2008 the RFA signed a two-year-agreement with Unions to implement wage increases of 11% for 2009 and 2010. According to the

RFA, the second part of that agreement will be implemented on March 1 this year, but wage increases for next year have yet to be determined. Speaking to representatives from the various human resources, skills development and training and education departments of several companies at the first RFA training junket for 2010, session facilitator Tony

D’Almeida said several road shows had been planned between now and August where the negotiating team will be gathering information around wages from RFA members across the country. “Issues around wages, payroll, increases and anything else that needs to be addressed during the negotiations will hopefully be brought to our attention during these road shows.

‘Move to rail is inevitable’ By Carrie Curzon The next fifty years will see a revival of rail – and if this doesn’t happen through initiatives, it will be forced upon us. This was the message from Professor Jan Havenga when he addressed a meeting organised by the Consumer Goods Council in Cape Town last week, where the deterioration of South Africa’s roads and road safety also came under close scrutiny. While there has been a massive revival of rail use in the UK, USA and Europe, there are integral problems in SA, where non-reliability is one of them. “We have to design a system where service and reliability are improved and this must come from

opposed to road, as well as indirect cost savings like a decrease in hijackings and theft and faster evacuation of containers,” he said. According to Andy Connoll of the SA Association of Freight Forwarders, the solution in this move from road to rail is ‘teamwork and stamina’ and he believes that training is an even worse problem in this country than infrastructure. “Our people skills are just incredibly low,” he says. “We live in a world that wants instant gratification, and in our industry that means ‘door to door delivery, on time’. “These corridors rely on planning, and when a team pulls together everything flows. But our wheels seldom run smoothly.”

Expect customs to become even more zealous at the ports of entry, says trade and industry minister Rob Davies. Speaking in parliament at the unveiling of the 2010/11 – 2012/13 Industrial Policy Action Plan (IPAP), Davies said government would deploy its trade policies more strategically. “This includes intensifying the campaign led by Sars against practices such as customs fraud, under invoicing, smuggling and illegal imports – all of which profoundly undermine productive capacity and

employment in the economy,” he said. One of the most farreaching steps will be the introduction of “dedicated ports of entry for certain highrisk products” – planned for introduction within the next two years. Other steps outlined in the action plan include: • As part of the South African Revenue Service’s Customs Modernisation Project, Sars will extract indicative prices which will be used to alert Customs officials to underinvoicing and other types of customs fraud. • Dedicated capacity will be
