MESSAGE FROM THE PUBLISHER

We are fortunate that, due to the work of many government institutions, a wealth of data is available on the affairs of local government. Of course, the data is not always perfect, or easily accessible, but, as we have done since 2009, we strive to present the information in a dispassionate, coherent, consolidated and comparative manner in an effort to create a fair and accurate view of the state of each municipality. After the 2016 local government elections some information in the Handbook will be outdated. In this regard it must be noted that: • Information related to political management may change almost completely for all municipalities. • A number of municipalities will be affected by demarcation changes, mergers and amalgamations. A summary of the changes can be found on p35. We have also indicated pending disestablishments, mergers and amalgamations in the overview section of each affected municipality. The Handbook is designed to be used in conjunction with our website – www.municipalities.co.za – where more extensive information is available on each municipality. The website is easily searchable, links directly to relevant source reports and is regularly updated. We trust that the publication and website add a valuable source of easy-to-access municipal information to the South African landscape.

2016 will see South Africa’s fifth local government elections since the advent of democracy. It is widely predicted that these elections will be the most fiercely contested since 1994. Regular service delivery protests, often fuelled by perceptions of incompetence and corruption, give support to this view. Available statistics confirm dysfunction in many (but certainly not all) municipalities across the country. As an example: despite a laudable 10% improvement over the preceding three years, a total of 130 municipalities (46%) did not achieve financially unqualified – in layman’s terms, financially reliable – audit outcomes in the 2013/14 financial year.

METHODOLOGY, SOURCES AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We have taken care to collect, capture and, where possible, cross-reference the information contained in this Handbook as accurately as possible. However, it should be recognised that some types of information included in the Handbook change frequently. It is inevitable that some of the information will be incorrect at source and/or become outdated during and after publication. We, therefore, take no responsibility for the accuracy of the information contained in this Handbook. Where appropriate, we reference the original source reports, enabling you to refer to the original if needed.

MUNICIPAL SURVEY PROCESS Some of the information in this directory is collected via an annual survey that we conduct with all municipalities. While we go to great efforts to gather complete and accurate information, some municipalities are more responsive than others. The information fields that are primarily reliant on survey are those related to municipal contact details and descriptions, political and administrative personnel, as well as LED information. The information is cross-referenced and verified against other sources but, especially personnel information, changes frequently and without notice. The information contained in the municipal Sponsored Profile pages is provided by the municipalities concerned. It is not independently verified.

MUNICIPAL AREA AND MAPS The municipal area information was supplied by the Municipal Demarcation Board. All the underlying source material for the maps was supplied by the GIS/IT department of the Board. For more information on the Municipal Demarcation Board, please refer to www.demarcation.org.za.

DEMOGRAPHIC INFORMATION The information listed is sourced from the Census 2011 Municipal Fact Sheet, published by Statistics South Africa (Report No. 03-01-58). The original document can be obtained at www.statssa.gov.za.

COMPOSITION OF MUNICIPAL COUNCILS The information listed is based on information published by the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC). The information has been updated to include municipal by-election results up to 30 September 2015 in respect of all Metropolitan and Local Municipalities. With regards to District Municipalities, the information is sourced from the latest Annual Report of the municipality concerned or supplied by the relevant municipality. For more information on the IEC, please refer to www.elections.org.za.

SOURCES This Handbook is the sister-publication of the website www.municipalities.co.za. In many instances more extensive information is available on the website. The website often provides direct links to the relevant source reports. It is not practical to do so in the Handbook. The website is also updated on a continuous basis throughout the year. If you notice any errors or omissions, please contact us at info@municipalities.co.za so that we may immediately correct it on the website and also in future editions of the Handbook.

AUDIT OUTCOMES The information regarding audit outcomes is sourced from the Consolidated general report on the audit outcomes of local government, published annually by the Auditor-General South Africa (AGSA). The full reports are available from AGSA’s offices or at www.agsa.co.za. The terminology used is described by AGSA as follows: Clean audit outcome: The financial statements are free from material misstatements (in other words, a financially unqualified audit opinion) and there are no material findings on the quality of the annual performance report or non-compliance with legislation. Financially unqualified with findings: The financial statements contain no material misstatements. Unless the Auditor-General expresses a clean audit outcome, findings have been raised on either the annual performance report or non-compliance with legislation, or both these aspects. Qualified audit opinion: The financial statements contain material misstatements in specific amounts, or there is insufficient evidence for the Auditor-General to conclude that specific amounts included in the financial statements are not materially misstated. Adverse audit opinion: The financial statements contain material misstatements that are not confined to specific amounts, or the misstatements represent a substantial portion of the financial statements.

Disclaimer of audit opinion: The auditee provided insufficient evidence in the form of documentation on which to base an audit opinion. The lack of sufficient evidence is not confined to specific amounts, or represents a substantial portion of the information contained in the financial statements. The Handbook includes financial figures and information in respect of the 2014/15 financial year. At the time of compiling the information in this edition, the 2014/15 audits were still being finalised by AGSA and reports for the 2014/15 year were generally not available. The audit result is therefore shown as ‘n/a’ or ‘not available’.

SOURCES The figures shown for each municipality include municipal entities under its control.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION More comprehensive financial information is available on our website at www.municipalities.co.za. The individual sources are also indicated and links to the relevant source documentation are provided under the Links/Resources section for each municipality. Financial information is sourced from the MFMA S71 4th Quarter Schedule C reports, made available by the National Treasury on its website at http://mfma.treasury.gov.za. In general: • 2014/15 figures are unaudited year-end figures, sourced from the 2014/15 S71 4th Quarter Schedule C reports. • 2013/14 figures are prior-year audited figures, sourced from the 2014/15 S71 Schedule C reports. • 2012/13 figures are prior-year audited figures, sourced from the 2013/14 S71 Schedule C reports. • If the relevant S71 Schedule C figures, or a part or section of the figures, are unavailable, figures may be taken from the relevant Audited Financial Statements. The source will then be indicated as ‘AFS’ on the website. • S71 Schedule C reports are submitted in the format for monthly and quarterly municipal financial statements as prescribed by the Municipal Budget and Reporting Regulations. S71 Schedule C figures are standardised to the prescribed format and may differ from figures shown in the Audited Financial Statements. Where we have captured figures directly from the Audited Financial Statements, we have endeavoured to follow the S71 Schedule C format. • The figures reflected in the Handbook for ‘Total Revenue’ includes ‘Transfers recognised – capital’ and ‘Contributions recognised – capital & contributed assets’ as per the S71 Schedule C format. • The figures reflected for ‘Surplus/(Deficit)’ are the ‘Surplus/ (Deficit) after capital transfers & contributions’ plus the ‘Share of surplus/(deficit) of associate’. • All financial figures are rounded to the nearest R’000. R0 values are reflected as ‘-’. Values that are unavailable are reflected as ‘n/a’. • If a municipality has municipal entities under its control, the figures reflect the combined group.

UNAUTHORISED, IRREGULAR, FRUITLESS AND WASTEFUL (UIFW) EXPENDITURE The figures reflected for Unauthorised, Irregular, Fruitless and Wasteful (UIFW) Expenditure are as supplied to us directly by AGSA. If the figures are unavailable in this report, they may be sourced from the Annual Financial Statements of the relevant municipality.

It must also be noted that, while we have aggregated the figures for the purpose of the Handbook, each type of expenditure in this total is distinctly different in nature. The terminology is described by AGSA as follows: Unauthorised Expenditure: Expenditure that was in excess of the amount budgeted or allocated by government to the auditee, or that was not incurred in accordance with the purpose for which it was intended. Irregular Expenditure: Expenditure incurred without complying with applicable legislation. Fruitless and wasteful expenditure: Expenditure that was made in vain and could have been avoided had reasonable care been exercised. This includes penalties and interest on late payments, as well as payments for services not utilised or goods not received. The separate figures for each type of expenditure are available on the website.

EMPLOYMENT STATISTICS More comprehensive employment statistics are available on our website at www.municipalities.co.za. Employment statistics are sourced from the Non-financial census of municipalities, published annually by Statistics South Africa (Stats SA). In particular, the municipal data in this edition is sourced from the Statistical Release P9115 Unit Data (2013/14), available at www.statssa.gov.za. The data is collected by Stats SA by method of a questionnaire completed by the relevant municipalities. The methods used by Statistics South Africa for collection include personal visits, telephone, fax, email and post. When assessing the employment data, it should be noted that: • The data is self-reported by the municipalities concerned and is not audited at individual level. • Municipalities may have reported vacancies on a differing basis, depending on different interpretations of the reporting of funded and/or unfunded positions. Some municipalities indicated no vacancies at all in the surveys. • ‘Total Employment Positions’ (in our reporting) combines fulltime, part-time and vacant positions. Significant variances in year-on- year numbers may, in some instances, be explained by increases or decreases in temporary or part-time positions. (Continued on page 19)

SERVICE DELIVERY STATISTICS More comprehensive service delivery statistics are available on our website at www.municipalities.co.za. Service delivery statistics are sourced from the Non-financial census of municipalities, published annually by Statistics South Africa (Stats SA). In particular, in this edition, the municipal data is sourced from the Statistical Release P9115 Unit Data (2013/14), available at www.statssa.gov.za. The data is collected by Stats SA by method of a questionnaire completed by the relevant municipalities. The methods used by Statistics South Africa for collection include personal visits, telephone, fax, email and post. When assessing the service delivery data, it should be noted that: • The data is self-reported by the municipalities concerned and is not audited at individual level. • The data is not necessarily comparable with the Stats SA population census of 2011 and/or household survey data, mainly due to: • the data source being municipalities as opposed to households • the different definitions of household • differing reporting periods. • ‘Households’, as reflected in this data, is defined as a domestic entity to which the service is provided and which receives one bill (if the service is billed), alternatively known as a delivery point. This concept is often referred to as a household by municipalities, but this is not strictly correct, as households and consumer units do not coincide one-to-one, particularly in blocks of flats, on stands where there are multiple households in the same dwelling or in additional dwellings, such as garden flats, backyard rooms, etc. and in the case of public taps. Most municipalities do not have a system for identifying multiple households served by one billing unit or delivery point. • ‘Households – Free Basic Services’ means the number of Households that have access to free basic services. Where a municipality has implemented broad-based targeting or technical targeting to allocate free basic services, everyone may receive a basic level of free services e.g. the first 6Kl of water. In this case the figures for free basic services may be equal to the total number of Households served.

SOURCES • ‘Total Customer Entities Served’ includes both domestic Households and non-domestic consumer units, e.g. industrial, commercial, schools, clinics and hospitals, government departments, etc. Not all municipalities have a system to distinguish domestic Households and non-domestic consumer units. • The P9115 statistical release contains the preliminary results of the 2014 Non-financial census of municipalities and the revised figures for 2013. In the event of revised figures being obtained for 2014, they will be incorporated into the 2015 Non-financial census of municipalities (if applicable).

GOVERNMENT COMMUNICATION AND INFORMATION SYSTEM (GCIS) We also acknowledge the Government Communication and Information System (GCIS) for providing invaluable source material and information. We have made extensive use of the South Africa Yearbook, published annually by GCIS, in compiling the overview and provincial introductory information. LG

africa924/Shutterstock.com

• ‘Managerial Positions’ (in our reporting) combines S57 managerial positions (as defined by the Local Government Municipal Systems Act) and all other managerial positions according to the municipal organogram. • The P9115 statistical release contains the preliminary results of the 2014 Non-financial census of municipalities and the revised figures for 2013. In the event of revised figures being obtained for 2014, they will be incorporated into the 2015 Non-financial census of municipalities (if applicable). • ‘Total Employment Cost’ (in our reporting) combines ‘Employee costs’ and ‘Remuneration of councillors’ as sourced from the MFMA S71 4th Quarter Schedule C reports (see Financial Information above).

1.1 INTRODUCTION

1.2 BACKGROUND

The purpose of the grant as stated in the Division of Revenue Act (DoRA) is to assist rural district municipalities to set up their road asset management systems, and collect road and traffic data in line with the Road nfrastructure trategic ramework for outh Africa R A. uring inception of the RRA rant in the 0 / financial year, istrict unicipalities s out of the rural districts that were previously declared as Presidential odes were selected and allocated R . m each. This was due to the non-availability of road network information, especially in the local government. This made it very difficult to quantify the backlogs as well as to plan and budget for the existing network and for future prioritisation. n the 0 / financial year, the pro ect gained momentum and it was agreed with ational Treasury to add more municipalities into the RRA Programme, with the new formula criteria based on the extent of the network, population, topography and geography. The RRAMS Programme is seen as feeding into the hamba onke Programme Know our etwork , with under a budget of R . million for 0 5/ .

2 DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMMES

2.4 ACCESS ROAD DEVELOPMENT PLAN (ARDP)

2.1 MISSION

The mission of the RRAMS Programme is to provide high-quality trained Civil Engineering Technicians/Technologists throughout the country. These graduates will assist in the local sphere of government where there is a shortage of skilled personnel, especially in the civil engineering field.

VISION

There is a huge need for RRAMS training activities (planning, visual inspections, GIS, asset management) to improve their professional competence and this will lead to an improvement of the road sector in the country.

2.2 HUMAN CAPACITY PROGRESS

All the graduates are exposed to various aspects of training and credited with Continuous Personal Development (CPD) points. Graduates were trained in the following fields Visual condition assessments GIS & AutoCad Pavement Management systems Traffic data Project Management principles Bridge Management systems

In April 2015 the National Department of Transport, through the S’Hamba Sonke Programme “Know Your Network” embarked on a process to evaluate access roads within South Africa and to assess the accessibility of services. This will result in the identification of shortcomings of current access roads, i.e. where upgrades are needed, and determine requirements for future access roads. The purpose is to eventually improve access to all amenities and also to assist local government with identifying the needs for access road upgrade and new roads. The focus of the AR P pro ect is as follows Improved living conditions for the vulnerable populations along the road and related feeder roads; Improved conditions of transporting goods and people; Opening up of the surrounding area and improved access to basic socio-economic infrastructure; Creation of direct and indirect employment during the road construction, operation and maintenance phases; Enhanced potential for tourism, including eco-tourism.

3 CONCLUSION

Road Asset Management helps authorities to make the best use of resources to create the maximum return on the roadway investment. The professionals responsible for the Road Asset Management System RA must ensure that sufficient budgets are motivated for data collection, system upgrades, skills development and operational support. This leads to the improvement of optimal multi-year preventive maintenance and rehabilitation plans.

OVERVIEW OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT IN SOUTH AFRICA

©iStock.com/DavidCallan

wavebreakmedia/Shutterstock.com

Diriye Amey/Shutterstock.com

Diego Cervo/Shutterstock.com

OVERVIEW

South Africa is a constitutional democracy with a three-tier system of government and an independent judiciary. The powers of the lawmakers (legislative authorities), government (executive authorities) and courts (judicial authorities) are separate from one another. Government consists of national, provincial and local spheres. The national, provincial and local levels of government all have legislative and executive authority in their own spheres. It is a stated intention in the Constitution that the country should be run on a system of cooperative governance. The three spheres of government are defined in the Constitution as ‘distinctive, interdependent and interrelated’. In terms of Chapter 7 of the Constitution of South Africa, the local sphere of government is made up of municipalities, which form the lowest formal level of democratically elected government in South Africa. A municipality has the right to govern, on its own initiative, the local government affairs of its community, subject to national and provincial legislation. The executive and legislative authority of a municipality is vested in its Municipal Council. The objects of local government are to: • provide democratic and accountable government for local communities • ensure the provision of services to communities in a sustainable manner • promote social and economic development • promote a safe and healthy environment • encourage the involvement of communities and community organisations in matters of local government. While Chapter 7 of the Constitution provides the foundation for the establishment of municipalities, various Acts of Parliament have further defined these municipal structures since the inception of the current constitution, the most important of these being, the: • Intergovernmental Relations Framework Act • Local Government: Municipal Demarcation Act • Local Government: Municipal Electoral Act • Local Government: Municipal Finance Management Act • Local Government: Municipal Property Rates Act • Local Government: Municipal Structures Act • Local Government: Municipal Systems Act • Municipal Fiscal Powers and Functions Act. There are three kinds of municipalities in South Africa, metropolitan-, local- and district municipalities (also known as Category A, B and C municipalities). Metropolitan municipalities have been established to administer South Africa’s most urbanised areas. Metropolitan municipalities have exclusive municipal executive and legislative authority in their respective areas. There are eight metropolitan municipalities in South Africa: • Buffalo City Metropolitan Municipality • City of Cape Town Metropolitan Municipality • City of Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality • City of Johannesburg Metropolitan Municipality • City of Tshwane Metropolitan Municipality • eThekwini Metropolitan Municipality • Mangaung Metropolitan Municipality • Nelson Mandela Metropolitan Municipality. The remainder of South Africa’s territory is administered by 44 district municipalities (also known as Category C municipalities). Each district municipality is further subdivided into various smaller local municipalities (also known as Category B municipalities). As an example, the territory administered by the Sedibeng District Municipality encompasses the Emfuleni-, Lesedi- and Midvaal Local Municipalities. District and local municipalities share legislative and executive authority in respect of their commonly administered areas. District councils are primarily responsible for capacity building and district-wide planning.

As at 1 January 2016, there are a total of 278 municipalities in South Africa, comprising eight metropolitan, 44 district and 226 local municipalities. A number of future demarcation changes have already been finally determined by the Municipal Demarcation Board, but will only become effective after the 2016 local government elections. Once these changes take effect the number of local municipalities will be reduced from 226 to 205 and the total number of municipalities in South Africa from 278 to 257. The political management of municipalities is made up of an elected Municipal Council. The term of a Municipal Council may not be more than five years. The Municipal Council makes decisions on exercising its powers and performing its functions, including electing its office bearers, as well as appointing its executive and other committees. The Municipal Council employs the executive management and personnel that are necessary for the effective performance of its functions.

LOCAL GOVERNMENT ELECTIONS Local government elections are held once every five years. The next municipal elections are due to be held between May and August 2016. All South African citizens over the age of 18 are eligible to vote. The Constitution places all elections and referendums in the country in all three spheres of government under the control of the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC), established in terms of the Electoral Commission Act. The obligations of the IEC are to: • manage elections of national, provincial and municipal legislative bodies • ensure that those elections are free and fair • declare the results of those elections • compile and maintain a voters’ roll. The duties of the IEC are to: • compile and maintain a register of parties • undertake and promote research into electoral matters • develop and promote the development of electoral expertise and technology in all spheres of government • continuously review electoral laws and proposed electoral laws, and make recommendations • promote voter education • declare the results of elections for national, provincial and municipal legislative bodies within seven days • appoint appropriate public administrations in any sphere of government to conduct elections.

DEPARTMENT OF COOPERATIVE GOVERNANCE AND TRADITIONAL AFFAIRS (COGTA) The Department of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs (CoGTA) is responsible for facilitating cooperative governance, to support all spheres of government and to assist the institution of traditional leadership to transform itself into a strategic partner of government in the development of communities.

OVERVIEW

CoGTA oversees the implementation of the following legislation applicable to local government. The Local Government: Municipal Property Rates Act, as amended, regulates the power of a municipality to impose property rates, excludes certain properties from rating in the national interest, provides fair and equitable valuation methods of properties, and for municipalities to implement a transparent and fair system of exemptions, reductions and rebates through their rating policies. The Local Government: Municipal Finance Management Act, as amended, is aimed at modernising municipal budgeting and financial management. It also introduces a governance framework for separate entities created by municipalities. The Act is a critical element in the overall transformation of local government in South Africa. It fosters transparency through budget and reporting requirements. The Local Government: Municipal Systems Act, as amended, establishes a framework for planning, performance-management systems, effective use of resources, and organisational change in a business context. The Act also establishes a system for municipalities to report on their performance, and provides residents with an opportunity to compare this performance with that of other municipalities. It also regulates public-private partnerships. The Act allows municipalities significant power to corporatise their services, to establish utilities for service delivery, or to enter into partnerships with other service providers. The Act provides for the adoption of a credit-control policy for municipalities, which will provide for the termination of services in the event of non-payment. Municipalities have the power to pass by-laws to implement the policy. The Local Government: Municipal Systems Amendment Act, as amended, is aimed at professionalising local government for improved service delivery and performance management, while also instilling a people-centred local government mindset in municipalities. A key objective of the Act is to progressively align the systems of municipal administration and human resource management with those of the Public Service in national and provincial government. The aim of the Act, among other things, is to: • professionalise local government by ensuring that the administrative apparatus of municipalities is staffed by appropriately qualified and competent persons to improve service delivery • require that employment contracts and performance agreements of municipal managers (and managers directly accountable to municipal managers) are consistent with the uniform systems and procedures set nationally • extend the Minister’s regulatory power to make regulations relating to macro-benefits such as medical aid and pension benefits after consultation with the ministers of health and finance.

The Local Government: Municipal Structures Act, as amended, provides for ward committees whose tasks, among other things, are to: • prepare, implement and review integrated development plans (IDPs) • establish, implement and review municipalities’ performancemanagement systems • monitor and review municipalities’ performances • prepare municipalities’ budgets • participate in decisions about the provision of municipal services • communicate and disseminate information on governance matters.

LOCAL GOVERNMENT TURNAROUND STRATEGY (LGTAS) In 2009, an assessment of the state of local government found that problems in municipalities included poor governance and accountability, weak financial management, and a high vacancy rate in critical senior management posts. The findings further indicated an inability in some municipalities to deliver on the core set of critical municipal services. The findings pointed to a need to do things differently and respond directly to the findings of those assessments. In reaction, the Local Government Turnaround Strategy (LGTAS) was introduced as a government programme of action and a blueprint for better service delivery aimed at responsive, accountable, effective and efficient local government. Five focus areas, aimed at fast-tracking implementation of the strategy, have been identified. These are: • service delivery • governance • financial management • infrastructure development • fighting corruption. The department aims to review all pieces of legislation that impede service delivery. In this regard, more than 300 sections of legislation that fall under this category have been identified and reviews undertaken.

OVERVIEW

MUNICIPAL SUPPORT AGENT (MISA) In May 2012, the Municipal Support Agent (MISA) was proclaimed as a government agency as part of the LGTAS. The purpose of MISA is to be an institutional mechanism to manage and coordinate handson, targeted infrastructure development and technical capacity support without eroding the constitutional powers and functions of municipalities and other spheres of government.

MUNICIPAL INFRASTRUCTURE GRANT (MIG) The Municipal Infrastructure Grant (MIG) is aimed at eradicating municipal infrastructure backlogs in poor communities to ensure the provision of basic services such as water, sanitation, roads and community lighting. CoGTA is responsible for managing and transferring the MIG and provides support to provinces and municipalities on implementing MIG projects.

INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLANS (IDP) In terms of the Local Government: Municipal Systems Act, all municipalities are required to prepare and formally adopt IDPs. Integrated development planning is a process by which municipalities prepare five-year strategic plans that are reviewed annually in consultation with communities and other stakeholders. The aim is to achieve service delivery and development goals in municipal areas in an effective and sustainable way.

IDPs must, among other things, include: • the municipal council’s vision for the long-term development of the municipality • an assessment of the existing level of development in the municipality and an identification of communities which do not have access to basic municipal services • the council’s development priorities and objectives, including its local economic development aims and its internal transformation needs • the council’s development strategies. which must be aligned with any national or provincial sectoral plans and planning requirements • a spatial development framework • the council’s operational strategies • applicable disaster management plans • a financial plan and budget projection for the next three years • key performance indicators and performance targets.

OVERVIEW

LOCAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT (LED) LED is an approach towards economic development that allows and encourages local people to work together to achieve sustainable economic growth and development, thereby bringing economic benefits and improved quality of life for all residents in a local municipal area.

LED programmes provide support in the following areas: • developing and reviewing national policy, strategy and guidelines on LED • providing direct and hands-on support to provincial and local government • managing the LED Fund • managing and providing technical support to Nodal Economic Development Planning • facilitating, coordinating and monitoring donor programmes • assisting LED capacity-building processes. Through these interventions and resources, local role-players and interest groups are mobilised for the sake of achieving economic growth, and with the aim of creating jobs to reduce poverty.

NATIONAL AND PROVINCIAL TREASURIES The National Treasury is comprised of the Minister of Finance, together with the national department or departments responsible for financial and fiscal matters. The Minister is the head of the National Treasury. The Constitution confers extensive powers on national government to determine the financial management framework of all organs of state, in all spheres of government. National government must, through national legislation, determine uniform treasury norms and standards. The National Treasury is further expected to monitor and enforce these norms. The National Treasury, therefore, not only implements the budget of the national government, but also plays a financial oversight role over other organs of state in all spheres of government.

LED is intended to maximise the economic potential of municipal localities and enhance the resilience of macro-economic growth through increased local economic growth, employment creation and development initiatives within the context of sustainable development. The ‘local’ in economic development points to the fact that the political jurisdiction at local level is often the most appropriate place for economic intervention, as it carries alongside it the accountability and legitimacy of a democratically elected body.

The National Treasury, together with the provincial treasuries, are responsible for administering the Municipal Finance Management Act (the MFMA), which is the central piece of legislation regulating all financial matters of municipalities.

MUNICIPAL FINANCE MANAGEMENT ACT (MFMA) The Municipal Finance Management Act (MFMA) aims to modernise budget and financial management practices in municipalities in order to maximise the capacity of the municipalities to deliver services to all their residents, customers and users. It also gives effect to the principle of transparency as required by sections 215 and 216 of the Constitution. The MFMA must be read together with three other critical pieces of legislation: the Municipal Structures Act, the Municipal Systems Act and the Municipal Property Rates Act. The object of the MFMA is to secure sound and sustainable management of the fiscal and financial affairs of municipalities and municipal entities by establishing norms and standards and other requirements for: • ensuring transparency, accountability and appropriate lines of responsibility • the management of revenues, expenditures, assets and liabilities • budgetary and financial planning processes • borrowing • the handling of financial problems in municipalities • supply chain management • other financial matters.

(Continued from page 29)

In terms of the MFMA, the National Treasury may, in respect of any municipality or municipal entity: • monitor their budgets and the implementation of their budgets, including their expenditure, revenue collection and borrowing • investigate any system of financial management and internal control and recommend improvements • take appropriate steps if a municipality or municipal entity commits a breach of the PGMA, including the stopping of funds to a municipality if it commits a serious or persistent material breach of applicable legislation and regulations • take any other appropriate steps necessary to perform its functions effectively.

OVERVIEW

The Provincial Treasuries are tasked with: • monitoring compliance with the MFMA, the preparation of budgets, the monthly outcome of those budgets and the submission of reports • assisting municipalities in the preparation of their budgets • exercising any powers and performing any duties delegated by the National Treasury • taking appropriate steps if a municipality or municipal entity commits a breach of the MFMA.

AGSA annually produces audit reports on all government departments, public entities, municipalities and public institutions. Over and above these entity-specific reports, the audit outcomes are analysed in general reports that cover both the Public Finance Management Act and MFMA cycles. In addition, reports on discretionary audits, performance audits, and other special audits are also produced.

FUNDING AND DIVISION OF REVENUE

The Municipal Demarcation Board is an independent authority responsible for the determination of municipal boundaries. The Board’s status as an independent authority is also protected by the Local Government: Municipal Demarcation Act and various judgements by the Constitutional Court. In addition to the determinations and redeterminations of municipal boundaries, the Board is also mandated by legislation to declare the district management areas, to delimit wards for local elections, and to assess the capacity of municipalities to perform their functions.

Local government plays a critical and complementary role in eliminating poverty and reducing inequality. Municipalities deliver basic services such as water, electricity, sanitation and solid waste removal. Municipalities also manage extensive public road networks, and support or provide public transport services. They also directly manage aspects of planning and regulatory systems that control land use, influence infrastructure roll-out and facilitate economic activity. The Constitution requires a division of nationally raised resources between national, provincial and local government. This is done through the Division of Revenue Bill, which is tabled with the national budget. Transfers to local government are made through the equitable share and conditional grants. The equitable shares are determined by formulas that take into account demographic and developmental factors. Conditional grants are designed to achieve specific objectives, and municipalities must fulfil certain conditions to receive them. Local government raises revenue mainly from user charges, rates and taxes. Only a quarter of its overall spending is financed from the National Revenue Fund through the division of revenue. However, poor and rural municipalities rely heavily on national transfers because they have much lower tax bases than large cities. Consequently, government directs higher per capita transfers to poor and rural municipalities, while working with urban municipalities to leverage their own resources to increase investment in infrastructure. In terms of the National Treasury’s Budget Review 2015, transfers to municipalities will account for 8.7% (or R89.1 billion) of nationally raised revenue for the 2014/15 budget year.

AUDITOR-GENERAL SOUTH AFRICA (AGSA) The Auditor-General of South Africa (AGSA) is the supreme audit institution of South Africa. It is the only institution that, by law, has to audit and report on how the government is spending the South African taxpayers’ money. Although AGSA audits the public sector, it is not part of it. AGSA is a ‘Chapter 9’ institution, meaning its mandate is outlined in Chapter 9 of the Constitution. This ensures its independence. It is also not bound by any public service rules and regulations.

MUNICIPAL DEMARCATION BOARD

SOUTH AFRICAN LOCAL GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION (SALGA) Salga is a listed public entity, established in terms of Section 21 of the Companies Act, 1973 and recognised by the Minister of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs in terms of the Organised Local Government Act. Salga represents local government on numerous intergovernmental forums such as the PCC, Minister and MECs Forum, the Budget Forum, the NCOP, and the Financial and Fiscal Commission. Salga aims, among other things, to: • transform local government to enable it to fulfil its developmental role • enhance the role of provincial local government associations as provincial representatives and consultative bodies on local government • raise the profile of local government • ensure full participation of women • act as the national employers’ organisation for municipal and provincial member employers • provide legal assistance to its members. Salga is funded through a combination of sources, including a national government grant, membership fees from provincial and local government associations that are voluntary members, and donations from the donor community for specific projects.

Advancing the building of a digital society It is the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa's mission to ensure that all South Africans have access to a wide range of high quality communication services at affordable prices Established in July 2000, as a merger of the telecommunications regulator, the South African Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (SATRA) and the Independent Broadcasting Authority (IBA), the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa (ICASA) is a product of statute, the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa Amendment Act of 2000, amended in 2005. Lead by CEO Pakamile Kayalethu Pongwana since November 2013, ICASA, a Chapter 9 institution, is responsible for regulating the telecommunications, broadcasting and postal industries in the public interest and ensuring affordable services of a high quality for all South Africans. The Authority also issues licenses to telecommunications and broadcasting service providers, enforces compliance with rules and regulations, protects consumers from unfair business practices and poor quality services, hears and decides on disputes and complaints brought against licensees and controls and manages the effective use of radio frequency spectrum. Supervised by 9 (nine) highly qualified and experienced councillors, Pongwana, a military radio communications, electronic warfare and political science specialist, runs a tight ship to ensure that the organisation’s strategic objectives are met. Pongwana matriculated in 1979 at St Johns College, Umtata and left South Africa in 1981, after which he lived in Lesotho, Mozambique and Angola. He later received military training in Angola and Russia, specialising in military radio communications, electronic warfare and political science. Later he obtained a Bachelor of Accounting Sciences degree at the University of Transkei (now Walter Sisulu University), majoring in Accounting and Auditing.

I left in June 2005 to join Vodacom as Executive Head of Government Relations, subsequently Managing Executive Government Relations, and following that, in February 2006, I became the Managing Executive for Regulatory Affairs SA.”

“I integrated into the South African National Defence Force (SANDF) as a lieutenant colonel in 5 Signal Regiment in 1994, a unit responsible for electronics warfare. On completion of all courses, including the Senior Command and Staff Course in 1998, I was promoted to colonel and assumed command of 1 Signal Regiment in 1999,” says Pongwana, who then resigned from the SANDF in May 2000 after having been appointed as Deputy Director General of Telecommunications in the Department of Communications.

Talking about the company’s Strategic Planning Process, Pongwana says, “This annual update is done by taking into consideration several inputs; a scan of important developments in the internal and external environment, an updated analysis of perceived strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT), and engagement with internal and external stakeholders. Changes in the strategy are influenced by the availability of funding, recommendations from institutional reviews and changes in leadership.”

“In this post I was responsible for telecommunications policy with the major achievements being the amendment of the Telecommunications Act to facilitate Telkom’s listing, drafting and finalisation of Electronic Communication and Transactions Act and the drafting of the existing Electronic Communications Act.

According to Pongwana, the following national policy developments impact on the work of ICASA: • MTSF allocations were made to enable the Authority to participate in the integrated implementation of the plan, especially when advancing the philosophy of a digital society.

• In addressing Government’s strategy for service delivery, the Authority has taken note of Outcome 6 (Building an Efficient, Competitive and Responsive Economic Infrastructure Network), which emphasises increasing broadband penetration and the digital terrestrial television infrastructure roll-out. The Authority has placed the provision of broadband services at the front and centre of its work plan and is committed to ensuring a successful migration to digital terrestrial television. Outcome 12 highlights service delivery quality and access as key areas, while Outcome 14 promotes the five long-term nation-building goals. These goals include knowledge of the Constitution, equalising opportunities, promoting social cohesion and active citizenry, and achieving a social compact to lay the basis for equity, inclusion and prosperity for all. “Monitoring implementation of the strategy provides regular feedback on the progress of operational plans, and together with evaluating the achievement or non-achievement of predetermined objectives and targets provides managers, decision makers and other stakeholders with performance measurements. This information informs the Authority’s progress in its annual report and in turn is used in the next planning cycle. “In accordance with prescripts stipulating that the Accounting Officer must establish procedures for quarterly reporting to facilitate effective performance monitoring, evaluation and corrective action, the Authority has a formal report framework with emphasis on quarterly progress reporting against the quarterly targets committed to in the Annual Performance Plan (APP). Furthermore, monitoring is also done against implementation of programme and project plans as well as operational plans which unpack quarterly targets into action steps and deliverables. This ensures a proactive approach to the monitoring and evaluation process, thus ensuring adherence to targets and mitigation of challenges affecting performance. This inyear performance report informs the annual report, which provides an overall indication of the Authority’s progress towards achieving the strategic objectives and targets set out in this strategic plan,” says Pongwana, who also boasts a Masters Degree in Business Leadership from Unisa. The CEO says in his overview in the Strategic Plan for the fiscal years 2016 to 2020 that the market for electronic communications in South Africa has fast been expanding and is likely to continue at an exponential rate in the years ahead, driven by rapid growth in mobile telephony, broadband connectivity and the advent of digital broadcasting. “With a network that is 99.9% digital and includes the latest in fixed-line, wireless and satellite communication, and with 80% coverage of digital broadcasting, the country has the most developed electronic communications network in Africa.

More about ICASA

The functions of the organisation are to: • license broadcasters, signal distributors, providers of telecommunication services and postal services; • make regulations; • impose license conditions; plan, assign, control, enforce and manage the frequency spectrum; ensure international and regional co-operation; • ensure the efficient allocation of numbers; • ensure interoperability of networks; and • receive and resolve complaints.

South Africa, however, is lagging behind on both digital migration and development of fast, advanced broadband (LTE). We have the opportunity to create a buffer of progress on LTE and therefore, digital broadcasting. We need to ensure that in the long-term, we are on par in standardisation of work-related to the next generation (5G), as consumer behaviour and the new technologies are driving change in the market and the Authority needs to ensure that its work reflects and responds to these developments,” he says. According to ICASA, the promotion of competition is seen as a crucial element in achieving the goals of Outcome 6 of Government’s 14 Priority Outcomes for the MTSF period from 2014 to 2019. “Broadband fast internet has become a key tool for social and economic development, and needs to be prioritised, even in the world’s poorest nations. The price of broadband in South Africa has dropped, with more affordable and faster fixed-line services and mobile data products. In order to facilitate increased access to broadband at fair prices, the Authority is conducting a review of all input costs that drive the retail prices that consumers paid to access the internet.” Pongwana says there is a need for rapid transformation of the broadcasting sector with digital migration opening possibilities for more public, commercial and community free-to-air and subscription broadcasting at national, provincial and community level. “Furthermore, the availability of spectrum is key for the proliferation of wireless technologies to meet the country’s economic and social needs in order to have efficient spectrum planning, location and assignment in accordance with international best practice, protocols and standards. The spectrum that will become available with the migration from analogue to digital broadcasting will be assigned to facilitate the universal roll out of broadband networks and broadcasting services,” he concludes.

OVERVIEW OF FUTURE DEMARCATION CHANGES

DEMARCATION CHANGES

The municipalities and the demarcation of municipal boundaries published in this book reflect the status as at 1 January 2016. At this date, a number of future demarcation changes have already been finally determined by the Municipal Demarcation Board but will only become effective after the 2016 local government elections. The impending demarcation changes can generally be divided into two categories: • changes that disestablish, merge, amalgamate or combine various municipalities • changes that only redetermine the geographic boundaries of a municipality (by excluding a certain area from one municipality and including it in the area of another adjacent municipality), but do not affect a municipality’s ongoing existence.

• Ntambanana Local Municipality will be disestablished and its municipal area merged into the uMlalazi Local Municipality and the Mthonjaneni Local Municipality. • Ingwe Local Municipality and Kwa Sani Local Municipality will be amalgamated into a new local municipality.

LIMPOPO

The demarcation changes that will disestablish, merge, amalgamate or combine various municipalities and affect the ongoing existence of current municipalities are as follows:

• Mutale Local Municipality will be disestablished and merged into Musina Local Municipality. • A new local municipality will be established from portions of Thulamela Local Municipality and Makhado Local Municipality. • Aganang Local Municipality will be disestablished and its municipal area merged into Blouberg Local Municipality, Molemole Local Municipality and Polokwane Local Municipality. • Mookgophong Local Municipality and Modimolle Local Municipality will be amalgamated into a new local municipality. • Fetakgomo Local Municipality and Greater Tubatse Local Municipality will be amalgamated into a new local municipality.

Putting the world of science in society’s hands Science, through research, has a crucial role to play in the growth of outh Africa s economy. hen scientific research findings are made accessible, it is possible for innovation and entrepreneurial opportunities to arise. Research findings can also have an impact on policy and social conditions in the country. But this can only be achieved when science becomes part of our daily dialogue and discourse. The bedrock of outh African Agency for cience and Technology Advancement s AA TA s success in advancing a culture of engagement with science in South Africa lies in its synergistic approach. All SAASTA’s initiatives fall under three key strategic areas  cience ducation through which we build up the supply of tomorrow s scientists and innovators  cience Awareness through which we engage the public with the phenomena of science, engineering and technology and  cience ommunication through which we share science and technology achievements with the public, building up their appreciation of the benefits of science . These three areas are interdependent, each enhancing the effectiveness of the other, while accommodating different target audiences and creating opportunities for oint initiatives across several government departments, higher education institutions, science councils, science centres and other science agencies. cience advancement is integrated in every level of the business of the ational Research oundation R . AA TA and the R s ational Research acilities which focus on the fields of astronomy and geosciences, biodiversity and conservation, and nuclear sciences are implementing a cross-cutting science advancement strategy.

SCIENCE EDUCATION outh Africa is rapidly reaching the forefront of science and technology advancement and has the potential to become a rich source of scientific expertise but only if the system

SAASTA.indd 1

is fed with a healthy supply of learners whose interest in science, engineering and technology T is guided by equally passionate educators. AA TA s education unit therefore develops, implements and manages pro ects that promote science, engineering and technology to learners and educators based on the following three focus areas  chool cience upport This includes educator and learner programmes, science enrichment programmes and competitions.  T areers This comprises career promotional material, career profiling campaigns, ob shadowing, T innovation and entrepreneurship initiatives.  cience Resources This includes curriculum-based support resources, enrichment materials, webbased materials and online learning.

SCIENCE COMMUNICATION The essence of good science communication lies in both providing relevant, accessible and accurate information and by ensuring that there is effective dialogue between scientists and society. The unit has the following focus areas  cientific ontent Packaging science information and communicating it using innovative methods to reach AA TA audiences, which include learners, educators, students, researchers, the public, industry and decision-makers.  nformation ommunication Technology dentifying and using the correct medium through which to communicate science.

LABOUR FORCE The Eastern Cape is located on the east coast of South Africa between the Western Cape and KwaZulu-Natal provinces. Inland, it borders the Northern Cape and Free State provinces, as well as Lesotho. The region boasts remarkable natural diversity, ranging from the semi-arid Great Karoo to the forests of the Wild Coast and the Keiskamma Valley, the fertile Langkloof and the mountainous southern Drakensberg region. The Eastern Cape’s main feature is its spectacular coastline bordering the Indian Ocean. It covers an area of 168 966km2 and has a population of 6 562 053. It is the secondlargest province in South Africa by surface area and has the third-largest population. The capital is Bhisho. Other major cities and towns include Port Elizabeth, East London, Grahamstown, Mthatha (previously Umtata), Graaf Reinet, Cradock and Port St Johns. The Eastern Cape is one of South Africa’s poorest provinces incorporating large areas of South Africa’s former homelands. The Eastern Cape has excellent agricultural and forestry potential. The fertile Langkloof Valley in the south-west has enormous deciduous fruit orchards, while the Karoo interior is an important sheep-farming area. The Alexandria-Grahamstown area produces pineapples, chicory and dairy products, while coffee and tea are cultivated at Magwa. People in the former Transkei region are dependent on the farming of cattle, maize and sorghum. The metropolitan economies of Port Elizabeth and East London are based primarily on manufacturing, the most important industry being motor manufacturing. The province is the hub of South Africa’s automotive industry. The Eastern Cape is divided into two metropolitan municipalities (Buffalo City Metropolitan Municipality and Nelson Mandela Bay Metropolitan Municipality) and six district municipalities, which are further subdivided into 37 local municipalities.

2016/01/26 2:12 PM

OVERVIEW OF THE COMMUNITY WORK PROGRAMME 1. Background The Community Work Programme (CWP) is a communitydriven government programme based in the Department of Cooperative Governance (DCoG). It provides an employment safety net and basic minimum income for people living in marginalised areas where, often, employment opportunities are not easily accessible. The CWP was conceptualised as part of the Presidency’s Second Economy Strategy Project in 2007 and was implemented as a pilot from 2007 to 2009 under the auspices of the Presidency and the Department of Social Development, with funding from an international development agency (DFID) and support from a few nongovernmental organisations. Following the pilot phase, the CWP was made a component of Phase 2 of the Department of Public Works’ Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP) in 2008 and was assigned to the Ministry for Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs o TA in April 0 0 with full government funding.

2. Objectives The P was initiated in order to address high unemployment and poverty levels in South Africa. t was designed to contribute to the strategic goals of government in addressing poverty and unemployment. It falls under the category of Public Employment Programmes (PEPs) in South Africa, the purpose of which is generally to provide access to work opportunities and income relief for the unemployed. t aims to contribute to the development of community assets and services and to enhance community development initiatives. t also aims to strengthen the economic agency of people in marginalised economic areas, enhance dignity and promote social and economic inclusion.

3. Key Features of the CWP Regular, predictable employment on an ongoing basis: The CWP provides a minimum level of regular work on an ongoing and predictable basis for those who need it the most at the local level. n practice, if offers two days of work per week (or the monthly equivalent), providing 00 days of work spread throughout the year. Social safety net: The CWP is a public employment programme and an employment of last resort, whose

wage rate is determined by the Minister of Labour on an annual basis. Area-based programme: The CWP is an area-based programme that is implemented in a defined municipal area called a site . The sites are established in the poorest areas, where the unemployment rate is high and permanent obs are difficult to create or sustain. Complement existing livelihood strategies: The CWP is meant to complement (not replace) the existing livelihood strategies of unemployed people. People already receiving social grants can participate in the programme. Community participation: The CWP uses community participation processes to inform and consult communities about the establishment of a site and to identify useful work and local priorities. This is usually through CWP Local Reference Committees (LRCs), ward committees where these are functional or other local development forums. on-profit The P works with non-profit organisations and cannot be used to subsidise business or profitable ventures, and should not be used as a private source of labour. Non-discriminatory: Participants, irrespective of race, creed, ethnicity or affiliation, must have an equal chance of being included in the programme if they meet the registration criteria. Non-political: t benefits all participants equally, irrespective of political affiliations. Useful work: The work undertaken by CWP participants at sites should be useful or meaningful. seful work is defined as an activity that contributes to the public good, the creation or maintenance of community assets or the provision of social services. The work is generally multisectoral, and responds to local priorities as identified by LRCs or other recognised community structures. There are generally a set of anchor activities that are ongoing and provide core work at each site. Labour intensity: CWP prioritises labour intensive activities (the ratio is 65:35 wage to non-wage costs at site level). This ratio requires partnerships with other players in order to co-resource or co-fund activities with high material inputs. Scale: The CWP is designed to operate at scale – where possible, to build and maintain participation levels of 000 people per site. Payment: Payment of wages is effected through cashless systems (by direct deposit into participants’ individual bank accounts) thereby minimising the risk of handling cash.

ADVERTORIAL

4. Programme Implementation, Management and Coordination At the national level, the programme is managed by the CWP Branch within the Department of Cooperative Governance. The CWP Branch is responsible for the overall management of the CWP, i.e. ensuring the implementation of the programme in terms of the agreed upon goals and targets and within the allocated budget. hile the epartment of ooperative overnance has the ultimate responsibility for the implementation and management of the programme, it is assisted in this role by Implementing Agents (IAs) who are all not-forprofit organisations, some of whom have been with the programme since its pilot phase. The provincial departments responsible for cooperative governance / local government, as well as the municipalities in which the sites are located, are all critical partners. Provinces led by Provincial o TAs play a coordination and facilitative role, including facilitating the establishment and functionality of provincial support structures (for example, CWP Provincial Steering Committees and CWP Provincial Management Committees). Provinces also develop provincial plans and report on their implementation, involving all relevant provincial role players in the programme, and exercising oversight. They also unblock any obstacles to CWP goal attainment in their respective provinces. unicipalities support the selection of eligible participants, by for example, availing their Indigent Registers to ensure that the neediest members of communities benefit from the programme. ocal Reference ommittees, which are made up of a variety of community representatives (including municipalities), are also responsible for developing criteria for selecting programme participants and for providing general advice to site management.

P municipalities are key to the establishment and functionality of ocal Reference ommittees, supporting the work of IAs, as well as ensuring the alignment of Site Business Plans with municipal Integrated Development Plans and Ward Development Plans, where the latter exist. R s are community, not political structures, and should not be biased towards or prejudiced against any local formations. They should strictly ensure that the participants and the CWP are served, irrespective of the political affiliations of P participants or potential participants. The P model is built on the basis of establishing, maintaining and strengthening partnerships and relationships among municipalities, provincial government and a variety of sectors, together with entities of civil society and the corporate world.

5. CWP Training Training is regarded as a very important component of the P in order to enable effective P operations and to improve the knowledge and skills of participants, thereby increasing their employment potential. mplementing Agents develop training programmes that strive to establish links with training institutions and opportunities to enable participants to access further training (with a preference for SETA-accredited training) and to assist participants in identifying possible career paths available to them beyond the CWP. Between 1 April 2015 and 31 October 2015, the Community Work Programme provided 205 327 work opportunities in all 9 provinces. It is expected that by 31 March 2016, 213 400 CWP participants will have been provided with work opportunities in 203 sites and 196 Municipalities across the country.

The district surface area has increased due to the incorporation of the Mbizana and Ntabankulu Local Municipalities. The process also entailed the amendment of all four municipalities’ wards where the wards for Umzimvubu Local Municipality (LM) increased from 24 to 27, due to some wards from Ntabankulu Municipality being incorporated under Umzimvubu LM; Matatiele from 24 to 26; Mbizana from 25 to 31; and Ntabankulu from 15 to 18 wards. The changes resulted in Alfred Nzo District Municipality being formed by a total of 102 wards.

OVERVIEW DEMOGRAPHIC INFORMATION*

Area: 4 352km2 Description: Matatiele Local Municipality is located in the northern part of the Eastern Cape province. It adjoins Elundini Municipality to the south-west, Greater Kokstad Municipality to the east, and Lesotho to the north. It is one of the four local municipalities forming part of the Alfred Nzo District Municipality. The other municipalities are the Umzimvubu, Mbizana and Ntabankulu Local Municipalities. The R56 road is a major arterial and trade route running through the municipality in an east-west direction, linking Matatiele with Kokstad to the east and Mount Fletcher to the west. It links the municipality with the KwaZulu-Natal province and parts of the Eastern Cape province located south of Matatiele Municipality. The western parts of the area (commercial agricultural farms) form part of the high production potential land stretching from Matatiele and Kokstad in the south through the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands to the north-western parts of KwaZulu-Natal. The Matatiele municipal area is composed of the commercial farmlands surrounding the service centre of Matatiele, the town of Cedarville, and the R293 township of Maluti. The municipality is predominantly rural in nature. While Matatiele Town serves as a service centre and/or the main economic hub for Matatiele Municipality and beyond, and is identified in the District Municipality SDF as a primary node, the settlement pattern is characterised by dispersed rural settlements surrounded by subsistence farmlands in the former Transkei region. The area is located at the foothills of the Drakensberg Mountains. It adjoins the World Heritage Site along its western boundary and was included in the Maloti-Drakensberg Transfrontier Conservation and Development Project (MDTP). The latter was a collaborative initiative between South Africa and the Kingdom of Lesotho to protect the

Area: 2 417km2 Description: Mbizana Local Municipality is situated within the Alfred Nzo District Municipality in the Eastern Cape province. It is located on the R61 road connecting the KwaZulu-Natal South Coastal Boundary to the N2 highway. The municipality stretches between the Umtamvuna and Mtentu Rivers, with pristine beaches and scenic estuaries. This coastline is part of the famous Wild Coast and Pondoland centre, which boasts valuable flora and fauna found nowhere else in the world. It is also home to one of the greatest sons of Africa, Oliver Reginald Tambo, who was a revolutionary leader and the longest-serving ANC president. Mbizana prides itself on a cultural diversity that includes a variety of tribes such as the Xhosas, Mpondos, Sothos and Ngunis. However, the population is dominated by the Mpondo tribe, which has its own unique dialect, isiMpondo, a soft mixture of isiXhosa and isiZulu. A female-dominated society, the municipality makes efforts to integrate and incorporate women in key decision-making roles within the institution to reflect this demographic. The majority of households in Mbizana are of a rural nature. This results in natural resources providing a strong base for basic survival as those living in rural areas turn to subsistence farming for their livelihoods.

EASTERN CAPE

OVERVIEW Area: 3 447km2 Description: Emalahleni Local Municipality is an administrative area situated in the north-eastern part of the Chris Hani District Municipality in the Eastern Cape. The municipality was established during 2000 and comprises of the three rural towns of Lady Frere, Dordrecht and Indwe, with more than 200 villages. Much of the municipal area was formerly in the Transkei. The quality of life in the rural villages is generally poor, marked by poverty and lack of access to services and amenities. Unemployment is high, and most households rely on social grants and remittances from family members working elsewhere. Agriculture is limited to low-level subsistence farming, producing enough maize for personal use, traditional livestock farming and sorghum production, which is formalised and produced for the market. Wool production is one of the upcoming sources of income in the area for the emerging communal farmers. Cities/Towns: Dordrecht, Indwe, Lady Frere Main Economic Sectors: Government and services (55%)

FINANCIAL INFORMATION*

population, as well as the highest rates of poverty and unemployment, in the Chris Hani District Municipality, coupled with a high dependency ratio. The economy is underperforming and currently fails to create needed jobs and revenues. A dedicated LED strategy has been developed in order to guide interventions in turning this situation around. The municipality’s low productivity score points to the low GDP per worker (formal and informal), a relative shortage of skills available to the economy, and low growth. On a broad scale, the Engcobo Municipality has some striking features: it is a peripheral area in terms of the national economy, is underdeveloped, has a fragmented settlement pattern, has a low-density rural settlement environment, and its resource base is under pressure. On the scale of urban development, Engcobo Town is classified as a Sub-District Development Node by CHDM (i.e. it is among a group of towns deemed to be on a second tier below the dominant district node of Queenstown). This means that Engcobo is understood to have an influence (reach or catchment population) beyond simply its local area and that it draws people to the town to access goods and services from a broader area (i.e. in some cases even from neighbouring municipalities). However, Engcobo may also currently be described as a lowdensity urban environment. In spite of its low density and intensity of development, Engcobo’s business centre is thriving, though it does not function optimally due to overcrowding and a lack of facilities serving both pedestrian and vehicular traffic. Business in the town is reliant on commuters (rural consumers) and there is no mass of resident consumers. This limits the range of commercial and social facilities that the private sector provides in town and inhibits the development of a more vibrant urban character. Cities/Towns: Engcobo Main Economic Sectors: Agriculture, forestry, trade, tourism

OVERVIEW

EASTERN CAPE

Area: 5 065km2 Description: Elundini Local Municipality (ELM) is located within the Joe Gqabi District in the north-eastern portion of the Eastern Cape province. The municipality is bounded by Lesotho and Senqu Municipality in the west, Chris Hani District Municipality in the south, OR Tambo District Municipality in the east and Alfred Nzo District Municipality in the north. The ELM is one of the most scenic and attractive areas of the province, with considerable potential lying in its deep, fertile soils and high rainfall. Compared to the other municipalities in the Joe Gqabi District, Elundini has prospects of significant growth and upliftment in the quality of life for its residents due to its relative abundance of natural resources. The urban areas and commercial farming district are the highest employers, where people have found employment in the agriculture, commercial and service sectors. There are very low levels of employment in the rural settlements. This can be partly attributed to the fact that these areas do not have a strong economic base, and partly to the fact that most inhabitants are involved in subsistence-related activities with little surplus being produced for economic profit. Due to the migrant system in operation in South Africa, the impact of recessionary downturns in the economy elsewhere (such as in the mining industry, Gauteng and Cape Town) have had an impact on the Elundini area. There is still a heavy reliance on income from migrant sources. Cities/Towns: Maclear, Mount Fletcher, Ugie Main Economic Sectors: Social services/government (41%), agriculture (28%), wholesale and retail trade (14%)

GARIEP LOCAL MUNICIPALITY (EC144) CONTACT DETAILS

to the south-west and Maletswai to the east. The Orange River separates Gariep from both the Northern Cape and the Free State provinces. The Gariep Local Municipality has fairly diverse vegetation and is home to three distinct vegetation types, one of which – Eastern Mixed Nama Karoo – is recognised as a nationally significant biome. It is characterised by mountains, hills and valleys. This area is well known for its stock farming, of which sheep production is one of the dominating sectors. The streams and rivers team with fish, trout being a common species. Rock foundations have beautiful artwork made years ago by the founders of the area – the Khoisan. Gariep Local Municipality is small, with limited resources, and is therefore heavily reliant on Municipal Infrastructure Grant (MIG) funding for expensive infrastructure investment. This allows the municipality to ringfence own funding for operations and maintenance.

To increase capital investment, strong partnerships have to be formed with the district, sector departments and private sector. Investment remains the cornerstone of development and Gariep Municipality intends to create an environment that will attract economic growth. However, it must be acknowledged that the municipality cannot overcome poverty or attract new investment on its own and it will take concerted efforts from all spheres and business to exploit areas with economic growth potential. The overarching strategy has been structured to map the development path that will enable other important role-players to invest and support development in the Gariep municipal area as a whole. Internal capacity should be strengthened to enable the municipality to support and coordinate investment initiatives and lobby for funding.

OVERVIEW

EASTERN CAPE

Area: 2 670km2 Description: Kouga Local Municipality is situated in the Eastern Cape province within the area of the Sarah Baartman District Council (previously Cacadu District Council). It comprises the towns of Jeffreys Bay, Humansdorp, St Francis Bay, Cape St Francis and Oyster Bay along the coastal region, and the towns of Hankey and Patensie in the fertile Gamtoos Valley, which also happens to be the gateway to the famous Baviaanskloof wilderness area. Situated roughly 80km from Port Elizabeth, the seat of Kouga, lies Jeffreys Bay, world-renowned for its ‘supertubes’ surfing spot, while to a lesser degree ‘Seal Point’ at Cape St Francis and ‘Bruce’s Beauties’ at St Francis Bay attract surfers from all over the globe. The fantastic, clean and safe beaches are exploited by many a tourist, with a large number making an annual pilgrimage to the sandy shores to enjoy a relaxed yet vibrant holiday. Port St Francis, situated in St Francis Bay, is home to the squid industry. The squid, normally referred to as ‘chokka’, is mainly export quality but is available locally as one of the area’s prized products. The Gamtoos Valley is recognised as one of the prime exporting areas for citrus and avocado pears. It also competes with the best that South Africa has to offer with its potato crops. The Kouga area has great development opportunities and astute business men and women can take advantage of the diverse economic heritage that the Kouga area offers to entrepreneurs. Cities/Towns: Cape St Francis, Gamtoos Mouth, Hankey, Humansdorp, Jeffreys Bay, Loerieheuwel, Oyster Bay, Patensie, St Francis Bay, Thornhill Main Economic Sectors: Agriculture, fishing, tourism and hospitality

Key Investment Opportunities: Renewable energy projects – wind farms in particular; development of the Sarah Baartman Centre of Remembrance at the National Heritage Site at Hankey, where this Khoisan icon lies buried; urban regeneration of the Jeffreys Bay Central Business District and main beachfront area.

BREAKTHROUGH IN HOUSING The Executive Mayor announced in September 2015 that the institution had received a support package from government, including an amount of R4,5 billion for the construction of 8 000 housing units in Nelson Mandela Bay and a rectification project for shoddily built houses.

VIABILITY AND SUSTAINABILITY

EXECUTIVE MAYOR

The leadership has committed itself to the prudent management of the institution’s financial affairs, given the social imperatives and competing priorities and needs. Financial viability has been increased, and significant investor support has been generated. Key infrastructural backlogs are being addressed. Long-term confidence is evident from the latest credit rating by Moody’s, based on the liquidity profile and the debt to revenue ratio of the City.

CLLR DANNY JORDAAN

‘TAKE BACK THE CITY’ CAMPAIGN The Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality has partnered with local law enforcement agencies in a major drive to root out crime, corruption, poverty, drugs, unemployment and crime throughout the City in terms of the ‘Take Back the City’ Campaign.

The Municipality is committed to transforming Nelson Mandela Bay into a globally competitive and preferred destination for investors and tourists. Its work in developing the local economy is complemented by a number of fora, such as the Local Economic Development Forum, the NMB Investment Council, the Economic Advisory Panel and the GDS Coordinating Forum. In addition, a number of development agency boards are operative in the City. The Coega Industrial Development Zone (IDZ) and Ngqura deepwater Port are set to transform the economy of the region and the Eastern Cape. The Coega IDZ is a harbour serviced track of land that offers a duty-free environment, with tax incentives for investors. The Port of Ngqura, a Greenfields Project, serves as the IDZ’s link to the ocean. The state-of-the-art deepwater Port of Ngqura was officially opened early in 2012. Transnet earmarked Ngqura as a transhipment hub, linking trade routes between the East and the West. The automotive sector remains Nelson Mandela Bay’s primary manufacturing driver, with the Eastern Cape representing 40% of value of South Africa’s multi-billion rand automotive industry. Nelson Mandela Bay is also the preferred region for the manufacture of pharmaceutical products, yoghurt, chocolates, ice-cream, soft drinks, hides and leather goods and is a major export port for manganese ore, catalytic converters and vehicle components. The city is a major exporter of mohair and is known as the Mohair Capital of the World. Engagements with Transnet have focused on their capital investment projects, which include the decommissioning of the existing Manganese Terminal and the construction of a new one in Coega; the Tank Farm; the Nelson Mandela Statue; the waterfront development in the Port Elizabeth Harbour; and the continued development of Coega.

EASTERN CAPE

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT The Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality is committed to making the city a preferred destination for investors and tourists alike, always in close consultation and engagement with its 1,1 million residents. As the only city in the world officially named after former South African President and world humanitarian and icon, Nelson Mandela, the Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality strives to give effect to the values exemplified by Dr Mandela, such as ubuntu, warmth, friendliness, unity and compassion. In June 2015, a new political leadership, headed by Dr Danny Jordaan, assumed office. In his inaugural speech, Cllr Jordaan stated: ‘This city is in my blood. I grew up here, I learned my politics here, I played non-racial sport here, and now I am honoured by the ANC to be in the driving seat to steer Nelson Mandela Bay in the direction of efficiency, transparency and to make it a truly competitive global city for the benefit of all. We aim to implement an intervention plan to address people’s concerns about service delivery, create a sound base for economic growth and job creation, entrench good governance and accountability at political and administrative levels, and root out corruption.’ The vision of the leadership is to make Nelson Mandela Bay the best-run city in the country, comprising a competent, caring and socially responsible public service and citizenry. A decisive approach was adopted in rooting out corruption and the long-standing challenges hampering service delivery. Important interventions being implemented to ensure that service delivery goals are reached include the finalisation of a medium and long-term economic and investment strategy; the development of a Smart City and a township economy; and the continued roll-out of the ‘Take Back the City’ Campaign, with the focus on eradicating gangsterism and crime.

TOURISM With an expanse of 42 km of golden beaches, Nelson Mandela Bay has been dubbed the ‘Watersports Capital of Africa’. It continues to successfully host Africa’s only Ironman Triathlon. The iconic Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium has hosted many successful high profile sporting and cultural events. The Stadium won a prestigious engineering award for being the best stadium in the country.

EXECUTIVE MAYOR CLLR MXOLISI KOYO

VISION A people-centred developmental rural district municipality.

MISSION To coordinate governance for quality services and better communities through cooperative governance, socio-economic development, integrated development planning, and sustainable utilisation of resources.

EASTERN CAPE

VALUES • Commitment • Honesty • Respect • Integrity • Sincerity • Humanity • Accountability • Nurturing • Innovative The Chris Hani District is, both geographically and figuratively, the heart of the Eastern Cape, named after the heroic freedom fighter. The area has played its part in producing many of the giants of the country’s liberation struggle. Their lives, and the values they stood for, are well captured in the Chris Hani District Municipality (CHDM) liberation heritage route project. The district played a singular role in the struggle, and in almost every small town and remote rural area, one can find traces of local heroes and heroines who made the ultimate sacrifice in the fight for freedom. Thus far, valuable milestones have been reached in various projects, including the following: in Sabalele, Chris Hani’s birthplace, the District has established a Development Centre with the intention of facilitating development needs and uplifting the standard of living in and around Sabalele Village – various programmes and projects are taking place at the centre every day; the Museum and Heritage Programme, which acts as a source for collection, storage and exhibition of what the late Chris Hani stood for; the Food Security Programme, which facilitates issues related to access to markets, finance and technical support to improve productivity and reduce poverty; the Arts, Crafts and Recreation Programme and Hospitality Programme; and the Early Childhood Development Programme, which gives children the opportunity to engage in a variety of educational and social activities. The District is proud to have completed the Cradock Four Memorial Site in Cradock’s Inxuba Yethemba Local Municipality. The site boasts huge tourism potential and has been one of our flagship projects. The Municipality has made it a priority to preserve the history and heritage of the district, so that we may all remember our fallen heroes and learn from them. The Municipality has just completed

the repatriation and reburial of heroes fallen in Lesotho during the apartheid era. The graves of Luvuyo Lerumo and Qonda Hoho have been rehabilitated as part of site development. Calata Route: Traversing the Inxuba Yethemba, Inkwanca and Tsolwana Local Municipalities, the Calata Route begins at the busy town of Cradock, where there are numerous heritage sites such as the Cradock Four Grave, the Flame of Hope and Liberation, and the Olive Schreiner House. The route passes through Middelburg and onto Molteno, where we find Heroes Park and the Nomonde Graves, among other interesting sites, and then on to Sterkstroom for the Higher Mission School and the Garden of Remembrance. The route concludes at Tarkastad and its surrounds. Sisulu Route: This route falls within the Lukhanji Local Municipality and leads around Queenstown and its surrounds, taking in the fascinating heritage sites of the area. Places such as the Ilinge, Sada and Zibeleni Resettlements, landmarks of historical importance, and birthplaces of iconic people such as Mongezi Feza and Unathi Mfeka all form part of the Sisulu Route. Ndondo Route: The route includes the four local municipalities of Emalahleni, Sakhisizwe, Ncgobo and Intsika Yethu, and features heritage sites over a large area. From the outskirts of Queenstown, through Lady Frere, Cala, Elliot, Ngcobo and finally on to Cofimvaba, this tour features some of the most important landmarks in the Liberation Heritage Route.

ESTABLISHMENT OF THE AGRI-PARK IN THE CHRIS HANI DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY Following the pronouncement made by the country’s President Jacob Zuma in his State of the Nation Address, the Chris Hani District Municipality is set to establish its own agri-park. The initiative has a national cash injection of R4 billion and will benefit 44 district municipalities, which includes the CHDM. Designed against the backdrop of poverty alleviation, the agri-model seeks to improve on what the District already initiated years ago by revitalising its four functioning irrigation schemes. The development will also stimulate and attract scientific and entrepreneurial innovation that can, in the long term, position the Chris Hani region as a model case study of an inclusive agroindustrial development. An estimated 17 383 jobs will be created within the next five years, with a projection of 21 000 sustainable jobs in the primary and secondary production created ten years thereafter.

OBJECTIVE OF THE AGRI-PARK PROGRAMME Through this programme the CHDM hopes to develop capable smallscale farmers and producer groups through: • commercialising sustainable small-scale farming enterprises • promoting the efficient farming of commodities sought after by different markets – local markets for food and nutrition security, as well as external markets • coordinating the activities of small-scale farmers so that market demand is sufficiently and satisfactorily addressed.

AGRI-PARK BENEFICIARIES Small-time farmers, workers and producer homesteads will be majority shareholders in the agri-parks management company to be established. Households will be actively involved in homesteadbased production, using modern-day technology, and will participate in the agro-value chain and markets. Furthermore, it is foreseen that the attraction of business and professional operatives to the areas concerned through the agri-park will lead to the transformation of these areas into attractive, modern hamlets inhabited by a growing professional class set to migrate into these new nodes of industrial activity.

SPECIAL ECONOMIC ZONE – CATALYST FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IN THE CHRIS HANI DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY

EASTERN CAPE

The Chris Hani District Municipality has reaffirmed its readiness for an inspired Special Economic Zone (SEZ). An SEZ is defined as a geographically limited area administered by a single body offering certain incentives and benefits to businesses physically located within the zone. This economic policy tool will see the Lukhanji Local Municipality being the economic hub of the District. Other local municipalities will either be Free Trade Zones (FTZs), Export Processing Zones (EPZs), Industrial Development Zones (IDZs) or Sector Development Zones (SDZs). The approval of the SEZ will increase foreign and domestic private sector investment through export growth and diversification; develop industries within the District; and upgrade skills and technological transfer. The Municipality has investigated various economic development instruments that are integrated and inclusive of the eight Local Municipalities (LMs). The SEZ will be biased towards the agro-processing sector and will take advantage of the region’s agricultural strengths. The proposed SEZ will be located near the old Queenstown industrial area. The suggested location has almost all the necessary base infrastructure, such as water supply connection, waste management works, electricity supply, ICT infrastructure, roads and rail connection to the economic hubs of the Eastern Cape and the rest of the country. One possible constraint has been identified under the spatial planning section; the existence of a landfill site just to the north of the proposed location. Local municipalities under the jurisdiction of the CHDM will form sector nodes that will yield primary production so that the Agro-Processing Hub (the Queenstown SEZ) has an adequate quantity and quality of input raw materials. This approach is inclusive and it ensures that economic activities and job creation occur not only in the proposed SEZ, but also in LMs of the District and, possibly, with adjacent district municipalities as suppliers.

Four major corridors have been identified and are defined as the: • East Corridor (Corridor 1), which runs along the R61 and links Ngcobo, Cofimvaba and Tsomo to Queenstown • North-East Corridor (Corridor 2), which links Elliot, Cala and Lady Frere to Queenstown along the R394 • West Corridor (Corridor 3), which links Middelburg to Cradock along the N10, and then Cradock and Tarkastad to Queenstown along the R61 • North-South Corridor (Corridor 4), which links Sada/Whittlesea through Queenstown to Molteno. Each of the abovementioned corridors transverse Queenstown, which has a strong existing business and support service base. Queenstown was therefore selected as the location for the proposed SEZ.

CHRIS HANI DISTRICT COUNCIL The District Council comprises 40 Councillors, 17 of whom are directly elected (PR). The Executive Mayoral Committee is made up of six members, who are Portfolio Heads for the following directorates: Budget and Treasury, Corporate Services, Engineering, Integrated Planning and Economic Development, Health and Community Services, and Special Programmes Unit.

SARAH BAARTMAN DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY

EASTERN CAPE

POSTAL: PO Box 318, Port Elizabeth, 6000 | PHYSICAL: 32 Govan Mbeki Avenue, Port Elizabeth TEL: 041 508 7111 | FAX: 041 508 7000 WEB: wwwsarahbaartman.co.za | FACEBOOK: Sarah Baartman District Municipality

The Sarah Baartman District is situated in the western portion of the Eastern Cape and wholly surrounds Nelson Mandela Bay. It is the largest (58 243km2) of the six districts in the Eastern Cape. Covering 34% of the Eastern Cape province’s geographical footprint, the District stretches from the Karoo area in the north to the coastal belt of the Indian Ocean in the south, and includes inland areas, which lie between the Bloukrans River in the west and Great Fish River in the east. The Eastern Cape province is incredibly rich in culture and home to four tribal kingdoms, namely Xhosa, Pondo, Sotho, and the Khoisan – said to be among the first inhabitants of the province. Known as the ‘Adventure Province’, the Eastern Cape has the only Big Seven reserve in the world, namely Addo Elephant National Park, and a World Heritage Site, namely the Baviaanskloof, within its boundaries. The lifestyle is relaxed, balanced and family-orientated, while the tourism industry is thriving. The area is characterised by immense contrasts in scenery, vegetation, wildlife, history and culture. Residents have access to world-class medical and sports facilities, and education facilities like the Rhodes, Walter Sisulu, Nelson Mandela Metropolitan and Fort Hare Universities. The Eastern Cape offers one of the best combinations of lifestyle and opportunity. Whatever your line of business, the province boasts a healthy economic variety of manufacturing, industry and agro-industry supported by infrastructure and development initiatives, while motoring giants like Volkswagen South Africa, Ford and General Motors are also based here. It is also the only province that is home to two Industrial Development Zones (IDZs) and a deep water port. The Sarah Baartman District Municipality focuses on creating projects to grow skills, employment and initiate sustainable economic development, as well as elevating the quality of life in the District. Some of the rare skills, such as shearing Angora goats for mohair, are available in the District and where a skills shortage is being experienced, initiatives are being undertaken to combat the skills shortage and, in turn, create jobs for local people.

The industry in South Africa and the Eastern Cape is still in its infancy, with only four aquaculture facilities currently operating in the District. These are located in the Camdeboo, Ndlambe, Makana and Kouga Local Municipalities. The largest of these projects is located in Graaff-Reinet and is called the Camdeboo Satellite Aquaculture Project (CSAP). It aims to establish a mega aquaculture cluster, comprised of a core farm of six hectares, 39 outgrower farms and three hatcheries. As a result of this project, the freshwater fish industry in the Graaff-Reinet area will be preserved, whilst it also creates sustainable self-employment opportunities for rural women. At maximum capacity, this project will produce about 13 728 tons of farmed fish (primarily catfish) a year, creating 670 direct jobs and 3 281 indirect jobs. Once perfected and successfully implemented in Graaff-Reinet, CSAP may be replicated in other rural and remote areas of the country, creating enormous social and economic benefits for thousands of South Africans, as well as a source of affordable protein and nutrients for millions of people. The other aquaculture and fisheries projects in the Sarah Baartman District are much smaller, one of which involves the production of oysters off the coast of Port Alfred (Ndlambe).

CITRUS The citrus industry in the District is largely focused in the Sundays River Valley Local Municipality. The town of Kirkwood is considered the primary producer in the District and the province, contributing about 12% of national production. It is home to 12 000 hectares of citrus orchards. Varieties produced in this area include clementines, navels, lemons, valencias and grapefruits. The Sundays River Citrus Company is responsible for a large chunk of the area’s production capacity, producing two million pockets of citrus for the export market. They are the largest producer of citrus in southern Africa, while the Eastern Cape, consistently since 2004, is the most significant contributor to citrus production in the country. Several citrus nurseries operate within the District (Sundays River Valley and Kouga), from which initial plants for future cultivars can be procured. Most cultivars start to bear fruit in their third year, although the climate can affect this. On a national level, about 11.2% of citrus produced is sold to local markets, 70.1% is exported and 28% is sent for further processing. Currently, there is a lack of large-scale processing facilities available for citrus fruit in the Sarah Baartman District.

POTENTIAL AREAS FOR INVESTMENT HONEYBUSH FISHERIES AND AQUACULTURE Aquaculture comprises diverse systems of farming plants and animals in inland, coastal and marine areas, using and producing a wide variety of animal and plant species. It can be a very productive use of resources due to the amount of food produced per hectare when compared to arable farming or livestock rearing. Aquafeed resource production is also one of the fastest-growing agricultural industries in the world, with growth rates of more than 30% per year.

Honeybush, found exclusively in South Africa, is a component of the horticultural industry of the District. It is an indigenous fynbos-type plant that is used to produce a type of herbal tea. The processing of the plant is divided into three parts, namely: cutting the tea into fine particles; fermenting the cuttings with pure spring water; and drying, sifting and sorting the residue into coarse fine and superfine grades of tea. This process is essential for the development of its characteristic sweet scent, taste and reddish brown colour.

LIVESTOCK Livestock farming within the District is largely attributed to the farming of cattle, sheep and goats. The mixed veld types of the Eastern Cape present a competitive advantage for livestock activities. With respect to goats raised for slaughter, the most common are the Boer, Savanna and Kalahari Red goats. Nationally, goats are primarily raised within the Eastern Cape, while the Sarah Baartman District possesses about 70% of the value of the industry in the province. Flocks of goats intended for meat production are usually smaller than sheep flocks, averaging approximately 300 head per farm. There are numerous abattoirs spread across the District. Kouga Local Municipality’s climate is ideally suited for raising goats and sheep and is home to 10 facilities that process this type of meat, while the Camdeboo Local Municipality has a further seven such facilities. There are another six similar facilities located in the District. The majority of these abattoirs also slaughter beef cattle. Nationally, there are shortages with respect to cattle production, with demand for more than 300 000 head of cattle extra per annum. A potential shortage in the supply of lamb is predicted in the near future, posing a possible investment opportunity, while the skill level of shearers in the District could be improved.

POULTRY The poultry industry in the Sarah Baartman District includes broilers, egg-layers and ostrich production. The coastal regions are more suitable for broiler and egg production, whereas the dryer, inland regions are more suitable for ostriches. Poultry-related cooperatives within the District are scarcely distributed, with only 12 cooperatives identified in 2013. There are opportunities that exist in the District for free-range chicken production, while the area is well suited for ostrich production. This industry produces leather, feather-related products and ostrich meat. In South Africa, white meat is generally considered as the healthier and cheaper alternative to red meat. In 2012, the South African Poultry Association found that more chicken and eggs are consumed per capita than any other animal protein.

PINEAPPLES The Sarah Baartman District is the largest producer of pineapples in the province, contributing about 90% of the provincial output. The industry is located almost exclusively in the Ndlambe Local Municipality, positively impacting on the social and economic growth of the area. The plant takes approximately one to one-and-a-half years to flower. Usually, the first crop is harvested after 18 to 24 months. Currently, all pineapples produced in the District are processed at a special facility located in East London. The pineapple plant is well suited to the conditions in the District and is able to grow in environments where irrigated plants struggle.

A range of products can be produced from pineapples, including juice concentrate, dietary fibre and textile fibre. Enzymes that have medical properties can also be extracted from pineapple waste products, while the plant waste can be used to produce biogas.

MOHAIR The Eastern Cape province is the largest producer of mohair in South Africa, contributing approximately three quarters of the nation’s current production. The Sarah Baartman District is the province’s largest producer of mohair, with approximately 52% of South Africa’s market share. More than 90% of the country’s total mohair clip is exported in the grease or semi-processed form – both washed and combed. Turkey, Argentina and Lesotho pose strong competition to South Africa’s mohair production. Angora goats produce a fibre that combines the warmth of wool with the durability to be coloured, similar to synthetic material. Colouring of the fibre results in a high reflectance value and clarity of colour. Kid mohair, due to its exceptional quality, continues to be in high demand worldwide and used in the manufacturing of fashion garments. Currently, the focus within the industry should be on skills, however development in management, husbandry and mohair production, investment in research and development could pay off due to new technologies being introduced to increase the yield and quality of the fibres that are produced.

RENEWABLE ENERGY

EASTERN CAPE

The plant takes two years to grow and is harvested in its third year. There are several honeybush processing facilities located within the District, three of which are found in the Kou-Kamma Local Municipality, while another is located in the Kouga Local Municipality. Of the national production, 90% is exported. Markets include Germany and the USA. The South African market for honeybush is largely untapped, with international demand outweighing national supply capacity.

Renewable energy harnesses naturally-occurring non-depletable sources of energy, including solar, wind, biomass, hydro, tidal, wave, ocean current and geothermal, to produce electricity, gaseous and liquid fuels, heat, or a combination of these types of energy. The renewable energy industry is therefore comprised of those enterprises that seek to commercialise these natural processes to generate electricity for consumers. Approximately 90% of South Africa’s electricity is still being generated from the burning of coal. The Sarah Baartman District has significant potential to produce energy using naturally-occurring sources, such as wind. The most significant gap in the market for the Sarah Baartman District, over the short- to medium-term, will be in the provision of ancillary services (e.g. legal services, EIAs, engineering services, construction, security services, fencing, maintenance, cleaning and logistics). With each renewable energy development coming online, the demand will increase for the manufacturing of components and the provision of operational and maintenance services. The Blue Crane Route Local Municipality is home to the District’s only hydro-electric initiative, developed along the Fish River. The Ndlambe, Sundays River and Kouga Local Municipalities are suitable for biogas production, as by-products of their agricultural activities. The Kouga Local Municipality also offers potential for hydro-electricity generation.

OVERVIEW The Umzimvubu Local Municipality falls within the Alfred Nzo District in the Eastern Cape province. The Municipality covers an area of 2 506km2. The Municipality has undergone a number of amendments in terms of municipal and ward demarcation, which has had a profound impact on planning in the area. Covering two towns, Mount Frere and Mount Ayliff, it has 27 wards, 54 councillors and 10 chiefs serving in the council. Led by the Mayor, Councillor Kulukazi Pangwa, it has a staff compliment of about 278 and has six output departments, namely: Citizen and Community Services; Corporate Services; Infrastructure and Planning; Local Economic Development; Special Programmes and Communication; as well as the Budget and Treasury Office. The Municipality boasts a myriad of diverse cultures, featuring Amabhaca, Amahlubi, Amaxesibe and Amampondo. As part of its natural beauty and wealth, the Ntenetyana Dam, Lugelweni Waterfalls and Ntsizwa Mountains form part of the attraction. IsiXhosa is the official language spoken within the Municipality. The language comes across with a rustic accent and hinterland flavour. One of the distinctive features of the language is the prominence of click consonants, and in the Municipality each region has its own accent, charm and peculiar expressions, which usually identify the speaker from the very moment they open their mouth. The most famous maize dish in Umzimvubu is umngqusho. This dried maize and bean melange has been compared with Italian risotto and is delicious when served with a meaty stew. Other key Xhosa foods include isopho corn soup, umpokoqo maize porridge and soured milk.

The Free State is located in the geographical centre of South Africa, bordered by the Northern Cape, Eastern Cape, North West, Mpumalanga, KwaZulu-Natal and Gauteng provinces, as well as Lesotho. The Free State is a rural province of farmland, mountains, goldfields and widely dispersed towns. Although the Free State is the third-largest province in South Africa, it has the second-smallest population and the second-lowest population density. It covers an area of 129 825km2 and has a population of 2 745 590 – 5.3% of the national population. Its capital is Bloemfontein, which is South Africa’s judicial capital. Other important towns include Welkom, Kroonstad, Sasolburg and Bethlehem. The economy is dominated by agriculture, mining and manufacturing. Known as the ‘bread basket’ of South Africa, about 90% of the province is under cultivation for crop production. It produces approximately 34% of the total maize production of South Africa, 37% of wheat, 53% of sorghum, 33% of potatoes, 18% of red meat, 30% of groundnuts and 15% of wool. The province is the world’s fifth-largest gold producer, with mining the major employer. It is a leader in the chemicals industry, being home to the giant synthetic fuels company, Sasol. The Vredefort Dome, 10km in diameter, about 100km south-west of Johannesburg, is South Africa’s seventh World Heritage Site. The Free State is divided into one metropolitan municipality (Mangaung Metropolitan Municipality) and four district municipalities, which are further subdivided into 19 local municipalities.

municipality. It is situated in the Free State province, in the central interior of South Africa. The Free State is bordered by the Gauteng, Eastern Cape, Northern Cape, KwaZulu-Natal and North West provinces, as well as by the neighbouring country of Lesotho. Mangaung, meaning ‘Place of the Cheetahs’, accentuates the vibrant, dynamic and energetic character of the tourism industry in the ‘At the Heart of it All’. The economy is strongly driven by the government sector, which has seen the fastest growth in the last five years as a result of increased government programmes in livelihoods improvement interventions. The finance sector is the second-fastest growing sector due to very active estate and construction activities. Small businesses have a major role to play in the South African, and especially the Mangaung, economy in terms of employment creation, income generation and output growth. It is estimated that more than 12 million people in South Africa are actively involved in the SMME sector, which accounts for approximately 60% of all employment in the economy and 40% of output. In an area such as Mangaung, with its relatively high levels of unemployment and poverty, it can be expected that the SMME sector plays an even more important role in job creation and poverty alleviation. The informal economy makes an important contribution to the economic and social life of Mangaung. Due to the decline in formal employment and consequent increase in unemployment, many people seek alternative means of earning an income.

ADVERTORIAL

Do it all, for less. In November 2015, HP introduced two new A0/36”-sized offerings to their already extensive portfolio of large format printing solutions: the HP Designjet T730 printer, unbeatable value that’s easy on the budget; and the Designjet T830mfp, a multi-function printer with a superbly small footprint. Designed to be compact and easy to set up, both these models need only a single power cord to be fully functional after installation. Thanks to the seamless integrated scanner, this boasts true even on the MFP. They are robust, compact and, hence, easily transportable. With technologies that include wireless connectivity [2] and Wi-Fi Direct, projects can stay on schedule, with flexible mobile printing and scanning options. They navigate easily and complete tasks faster [6], with an intuitive touchscreen that works like a smartphone. As space becomes more challenging in small and mobile offices, the A4/3 tray allows for printing to be consolidated with larger A1/0 drawings into one single device. This further reduces waste as small layouts needn’t be printed on large rolls of paper, nor is a second small printer required when space is simply not available [7].

The redesigned range helps reduce interventions, with the HP ink cartridges that go up to 300ml options, and keeps print costs down. As a first for the construction market, these models now support a Rugged Case [4] accessory. It makes transport easier through larger, stronger wheels, as well as protects the unit from manhandling and bumps through thick, solid covers. Dust in Africa is inevitable and reduces the lifespan of printers. The intuitive design of the cover now keeps moving dust out of the machine, while still making access to scanning and copying on the MFP simple and effortless. Another move in the right direction is the Wi-Fi Direct. This walk-up-andprint feature allows any Android & iOS tablet or smartphone owner to print documents and images without connecting to any access points. Building on this feature, the HP AiO Printer Remote app[3] then extends the scan and print functions, making previews, cropping of scans, etc a mere two-step exercise; probably the easiest wireless functionality on large printers to date. Now every studio and construction site can simplify their IT setup, and infrastructure needs, even more.

Footnote 02 [1200]

[2] Local printing requires mobile device and printer to be on the same network (usually Wi-Fi access points bridge wireless to wired connections) or have a direct wireless connection. Wireless performance is dependent on physical environment and distance from access point. Wireless operations are compatible with 2.4 GHz operations only. Remote printing requires an Internet connection to an HP web-connected printer. Wireless broadband use requires a separately purchased service contract for mobile devices. Check with your service provider for coverage and availability in your area. See http://www.hp.com/go/designjetmobility for more details.

Footnote 03 [1200]

[3] The HP All-in-One Printer Remote mobile app is available for Apple® iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch running iOS v7.0 or later and for Android™ mobile devices running Android™ v4.4 or later. The HP All-in-One Printer Remote mobile app is available for free from the Apple® App Store for Apple® mobile devices and from the Google Play Store for Android™ mobile devices.

Footnote 04 [1200]

[4] Available as of January, 2016. The render shown for the HP DesignJet Rugged Case is based on a preliminary product design, final design details may vary.

Footnote 06 [1200]

[6] Usability compared to competitive alternatives and based on internal HP testing and methodology in September, 2015 evaluating ease-of-use for first-time users comparing the time and additional assistance required to complete the task of copying a color A0-size document and scaling it down to A3 size on the HP DesignJet T830 Multifunction Printer with a single touchscreen compared to using a separate printer and stand-alone scanner.

Footnote 07 [1200]

DIRECTORY - FREE STATE.indd 101

[7] Printing on sheets eliminates the extra work and cutting waste of printing on performance equivalent roll-based printers in the market as of September, 2015. For example, printing at half scale (13.5 inches) on a typical (36-inch) roll results in over 50% paper waste and additional labor to cut.

Kroonstad has recently become a distinguished holiday destination due to the ultra-modern and popular holiday resort of Kroonpark, adjacent to the Vals River. The urban area is situated adjacent to the N1 National Road, and located adjacent to one of the largest and most important four-way railway junctions in South Africa. The Viljoenskroon/Rammulotsi urban area is located within an area of extreme agricultural significance. The urban area plays a significant role in providing residential opportunities to the adjacent goldfields and mining activities in the North West province. The Provincial Roads P15/1 and P15/2 from Kroonstad to Klerksdorp in the North West province extend through the area from north to south. The Steynsrus/Matlwangtlwang urban area is situated approximately 45km east of Kroonstad and 92km west of Bethlehem. The major link road between Bethlehem and Kroonstad stretches adjacent to the urban area.

Population Growth: 0.14% p.a. Unemployment Rate: 35.20%

of the Fezile Dabi District Municipality. The Vaal River forms the northern boundary of the area, which also serves as the boundary between the Free State, Gauteng and North West provinces. The Renoster River also drains through the region and is dammed up in the vicinity of Koppies in a series of dams, namely the Weltevrede, Rooipoort and Koppies Dams. The rivers, together with the respective dams, are prominent water sources for agricultural purposes in the region. Other prominent topographical features include the Vredefort Dome in Parys. The form of the dome consists of a central cone of granite surrounded by concentric ridges of quartzite belonging to the Witwatersrand System. The Parys District has unique natural and environmental assets, like the Vaal River, with several islands in the proximity of Parys, and the Vredefort Dome, that present exceptional tourism potential. Parys has a well-developed airfield that supports commercial and tourism development in the area. It has a strong commercial component and provides a wide range of services regarding health, education and professional services to the district. Vredefort is the only town that formed the former Vredefort District. The former Heilbron District is predominantly an agricultural area, although major manufacturing industries contribute largely to the Gross Geographic Product of the district. Koppies is located in an area of agricultural significance and mainly provides services in this regard to the surrounding rural areas. The three well-established and developed irrigation schemes subsequently enhance the agricultural character of the area. The strategic location of Koppies between the larger centres of Kroonstad and Sasolburg influence growth and development within the community. The bentonite exploitation near Koppies and the initiative for coal mining in the vicinity of the town provide significant future growth potential. Koppies is becoming known for its tourist attractions. Specific reference is made to the R82 Battlefield Route, which consists of several historical battlefields. These that are envisaged to be further developed along with the Koppies Dam Nature Reserve. Edenville is also located in an area of agricultural significance. The main road linking Kroonstad and Heilbron runs adjacent to the area.

province’s biggest municipality (Mangaung Metropolitan Municipality in the south) and the second-biggest municipality (Matjhabeng Local Municipality in the north). The former administration of the following greater Transitional Local Councils: Theunissen, Brandfort, Winburg, Soutpan and Verkeerdevlei, were amalgamated into the municipality of Masilonyana. It is an impoverished semi-urban area with a high unemployment rate. The municipality prides itself on its tourist destinations, such as the Florisbad National Quaternary Research Station. This is where the first human skull was discovered. There are also cooperatives in Soutpan working on the salt lakes to produce salt. The municipality plays host to two toll plazas on two major roads in the province; the Verkeerdevlei Plaza on the N1 is the last before entering Bloemfontein from the north, and the Brandfort Plaza on the former R30 (now ZR Mahabane Road) is situated between Brandfort and Bloemfontein. Brandfort is also known for its rich political history, which includes the National Military Museum on a farm that used to be a concentration camp during the Anglo-Boer War and the Winnie Mandela House, where Mandela was sentenced to House Arrest during the State of Emergency in the 1980s. Theunissen is also situated on the ZR Mahabane Corridor between Bloemfontein and Welkom, and hosts the three mines within the municipal jurisdiction. Winburg has economic potential because of its location, which is 100km west of Bloemfontein, and its linking of Bloemfontein with Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban. It prides itself with the Voortrekker Monument as its Heritage Site, and Masilonyana boasts several game reserves across all its towns. Cities/Towns: Brandfort, Soutpan, Theunissen, Verkeerdevlei, Winburg Main Economic Sectors: Agriculture, mining, community services

Key Projects: Cooperatives support and marketing in ZR Mahabane; paving and brick manufacturing in Theunissen; bakeries in Verkeerdevlei and Winburg; Business Development Centre; EPWP Potholes Project. Key Investment Opportunities: Retail development in shopping complex in Theunissen.

PHUMELELA WARDEN

LINDLEY

Area: 33 269km2 Description: Thabo Mofutsanyana District Municipality is a Category C municipality located in the eastern Free State province, and borders on Lesotho and KwaZulu-Natal. It is named after Edwin Thabo Mofutsanyana, a stalwart of the communist party. It comprises six local municipalities: Setsoto, Dihlabeng, Nketoana, Maluti-A-Phofung, Phumelela and Mantsopa.

Isuzu Trucks – 2015 overview & 2016 direction in Sub-Saharan Africa In a revolutionary change of strategy, Isuzu Truck South Africa has moved away from the traditional role of dedicated truck OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) to that of an ‘Enterprise’ with an African geographic footprint. Operating out of Johannesburg, a new venture has been established, Isuzu Motors Sub-Saharan Africa (IMSSA), in support of Isuzu’s objective of being the No.1 brand in Africa. During 2013 and 2014 Isuzu Motors Ltd of Japan supplied over 25 000 Isuzu trucks into Africa. In addition, Isuzu is South Africa’s top-selling, chassis-cab, forward-control configuration truck excluding panel vans and heavy buses selling over 000 units per annum for both 0 and 2014, with a sustained and steady growth over eight years.

Isuzu Truck South Africa is utilising its South African success to drive opportunities on the African continent. And establishing market leadership in Africa is far more than playing the role of a traditional truck that sends large volumes of semi-finished truck products to a factory.

into our dealers without distressing overstocking in limited dealer facilities. It requires an ‘Enterprise’ approach.”

ISUZU TRUCK SOUTH AFRICA EMBARKS ON UNIQUE BODY-BUILDER QUALITY PROJECT ith the exception of vans over 500kg gross vehicle mass vans are sold as a complete finished product - all new trucks enter the A road transport industry as unfinished products. This means they have to be completed with cargo body and equipment by local suppliers. This also applies to many truck tractors, which require mobile cranes, power take-offs, hydraulic fittings, fifth wheels appropriate to the task, and other equipment. A truck chassis cab is useless without the cargo body orproductive equipment to complete the vehicle for a specific application. Isuzu Truck South Africa has launched a unique, unilateral programme to improve the engineering quality, durability and on-road safety of cargo bodies and all equipment that is chassismounted or fitted to su u trucks in Africa. This initiative includes training, self-auditing and configuration management guidelines for truck body builders in Africa that is free of charge, excluding the cost of an initial audit, and will benefit the entire road transport industry. All new trucks, regardless of make, will benefit from su u Truck South Africa taking the lead on this ambitious project that will improve trucking’s total cost of ownership and the value of used trucks on the market.

GENUINE ORIGINAL PARTS – A VITAL COMPONENT IN COST OF OWNERSHIP & PREVENTING DOWNTIME Trucks will use parts they are working machines with work outputs measured in ton/kilometres. It’s all part of the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and Isuzu Trucks has recognised this as an important factor in sustaining market leadership. In line with this, Isuzu Trucks has launched an aggressive parts marketing campaign to align prices that re ect real value with quality standards, ensuring that replacement parts deliver their full service life for the lowest TCO.

su u was the first truck manufacturer to introduce medium and heavy trucks, with outstanding success. Isuzu AMT transmissions launched the medium-range N-Series during 2008 and the heavy F-Series in 2011. This resulted in Isuzu AMT equipped models attaining 51.7% of Isuzu Truck South Africa’s total volume sales in 2014.

t s not ust about price, says ayne organ, su u Trucks ational ervice anager. e have examined technical competitiveness of cheaper parts on the market and find disturbing differences. Take an su u genuine clutch assembly for example the genuine su u truck part has differing components, while the ‘copy’ clutch consists of only 9 components, which reduces clutch performance, reliability and durability.”

By June 2015 (year-to-date) nearly one in three medium trucks sold in South Africa was an Isuzu N-Series and 70% of these are equipped with Isuzu AMT transmissions.

organ concludes, a or-wearing su u truck parts have been subjected to price alignments, which makes the choice of a genuine su u truck part a no-brainer it s worth investigating.

ISUZU TRUCK SOUTH AFRICA TAKES FULL CONTROL OF KANU & ACT

SUPERIOR SERVICE – THE KEY TO A SUSTAINABLE ‘ENTERPRISE’

In an integrated move to improve the logistics for complete trucks with cargo bodies, Isuzu Truck SA has taken the lead in becoming the first ma or brand-leading truck manufacturer in outh Africa to offer a complete solution. ays ren, e have now invested in a totally-owned truck body-builder subsidiary KA ommercial Body Construction (Pty) Ltd to focus on rear truck bodies.”

Service is a word that describes customer needs well beyond the gates of an . ervice is an aftermarket nterprise activity it’s all about how customers use a truck and achieve lowest total cost of ownership. Service is about monitoring truck applications from cradle to grave, and about warranties that Isuzu Truck South Africa is now introducing as a new and innovative value to operating an Isuzu truck.

ren goes on to add, n addition we have acquired 00 of Automotive Chassis Technologies (Pty) Ltd (ACT), which conducts o ine customising and chassis modifications as an extension of the su u Trucks production line. Both KA and A T are Port Elizabeth-based. This provides centralised control over design, quality and warranty, plus the ability to schedule the supply chain

Gauteng is the smallest of South Africa’s provinces, covering an area of 18 178km2 or approximately 1.4% of the total surface area of South Africa. It is bordered by the Free State, North West, Limpopo and Mpumalanga provinces. While being the smallest province, it is also the most populous, being home to 12 272 263 people. Gauteng lies on the highest part of the interior plateau on the rolling plains of South Africa’s Highveld. Its capital is Johannesburg and it also contains the city of Pretoria, as well as the East Rand, West Rand and Vaal areas. Gauteng continues to serve as the economic engine room of the country and the subcontinent, responsible for over 34.8% of the country’s GDP. Gauteng is the powerhouse of South Africa and the heart of its commercial business and industrial sectors. The most important sectors contributing to GDP are finance, real estate and business services; manufacturing; and general government services. Gauteng is also the financial services capital of Africa. More than 70 foreign banks have their head offices here, as do at least the same number of South African banks, stockbrokers and insurance giants. The major gold and diamond mining houses all have their headquarters in Johannesburg, the biggest being Anglo American and De Beers. Gold mining constitutes 80% of Gauteng’s mineral production output. Gauteng is divided into three metropolitan municipalities, the City of Ekurhuleni, City of Johannesburg and City of Tshwane Metropolitan Municipalities, as well as two district municipalities, which are further subdivided into seven local municipalities.

extensive area from Germiston in the west to Springs and Nigel in the east. The former administrations of the nine towns in the former East Rand were amalgamated into the metropolitan municipality, along with the Khayalami Metropolitan Council and the Eastern Gauteng Services Council. It is one of the most densely populated areas in the province, and the country. The economy in the region is larger and more diverse than that of many small countries in Africa. It accounts for nearly a quarter of Gauteng’s economy, which in turn contributes over a third of the national Gross Domestic Product. Many of the factories for production of goods and commodities are located in Ekurhuleni, often referred to as ‘Africa’s Workshop’. The network of roads, airports, rail lines, telephones, electricity grids and telecommunications found in Ekurhuleni rivals that of Europe and America. It can be regarded as the transportation hub of the country. It is home to OR Tambo International Airport; South Africa’s largest railway hub; a number of South Africa’s modern freeways and expressways; the Maputo Corridor Development; direct rail, road and air links connecting Ekurhuleni to Durban; the Blue IQ projects, with linkages to the City Deep Container terminal; the planned Gautrain rapid rail link to Johannesburg and Pretoria; and the OR Tambo International Airport Industrial Development Zone (IDZ).

GAUTENG

Area: 1 645km2 Description: City of Johannesburg Metropolitan Municipality is located in the Gauteng province. Johannesburg is the most advanced commercial city in Africa and the engine room of the South African and regional economy. It is a city with a unique, African character, world-class infrastructure in the fields of telecommunications, transportation, water and power, and with globally-competitive health care and educational facilities. However, the city is also one of contrasts – home to both wealthy and poor, residents and refugees, global corporations and emerging enterprises. The demographics of Johannesburg indicate a large and ethnically diverse metropolitan area. As the largest city in South Africa, its population is defined by a long history of local and international migration. Johannesburg is home to more than 4,4 million people, accounting for about 36% of Gauteng’s population and 8% of the national population. Over the last decade the city has been growing. A key contributor to this is that the city continues to attract people from other provinces, and internationally, who are looking for better economic opportunities and quality of life. The population pyramid indicates that the city’s population is predominantly young. This can be attributed to migration from other parts of the country as young people look for jobs. Johannesburg is considered the economic hub of South Africa and is often the first choice of destination by job seekers across the country.

the Gauteng province and Pretoria is the capital of South Africa. It has merged with the Metsweding District, which was a consequence of the Gauteng Global City Region Strategy to reduce the number of municipalities in Gauteng to at least four by 2016. The new City of Tshwane is now the single-largest metropolitan municipality in the country, comprising seven regions, 105 wards and 210 councillors. Pretoria has the second-largest number of embassies in the world after Washington DC. Many embassies thus call this city their home. The Union Buildings house the administrative hub of the country and have also been the setting for the presidential inaugurations of Nelson Mandela, Thabo Mbeki and the incumbent South African president, Jacob Zuma. These sandstone buildings offer beautiful views over the City. Its rich and colourful heritage is reflected in the City’s myriad of museums, monuments and historical buildings, and is punctuated by contemporary arts and crafts markets, bringing the City alive with a unique blend of new and old. The Science and Technology Museum offers a tactile experience of science at work. The South African mint has a minting press dating back to 1892 that is still in operation. The City also offers township sleepovers with a five-star stay. Church Square and the State Theatre often host international and national performances. There are also two nature reserves where visitors can view wildlife such as buffalo, antelope, cheetah, jackal, giraffe and sable. Cities/Towns: Akasia, Bronkhorstspruit, Centurion, Cullinan, Ekangala, Ga-Rankuwa, Hammanskraal, Kudube, Mabopane, Pretoria, Rayton, Refilwe, Roodeplaat, Soshanguve, Temba, Winterveldt Main Economic Sectors: Community services (34%), finance (25%), transport (12%), trade (10%), manufacturing (10%), construction (3%), mining (2%), electricity (2%), agriculture (1%)

VANDERBIJLPARK

comprising the Emfuleni, Lesedi and Midvaal Local Municipalities. It is situated on the southern tip of Gauteng province and strategically located on the border of three other provinces, namely Free State, North West and Mpumalanga. The municipality is the only area of the Gauteng province that is situated on the banks of the Vaal River and Vaal Dam in the southernmost part of the province, covering the area formerly known as the Vaal Triangle. It includes the towns of Vereeniging, Vanderbijlpark, Meyerton and Heidelberg, as well as the historic townships of Evaton, Sebokeng, Boipatong, Bophelong, Sharpeville and Ratanda, which have a rich political history and heritage. The municipality is a stones throw from Johannesburg along the scenic Vaal, Klip, and Suikerbos Rivers. The well-developed national road network that cuts across the district to all the provinces ensures that the region remains the industrial centre of the Gauteng province. The municipality is 40km away from Johannesburg and 80km away from Pretoria, without the high traffic volumes. Sedibeng is the fourth-largest contributor to the Gauteng economy. The municipal economy reached a high of 7.2% in 2006. The predominant economic sector in the district is the manufacturing of fabricated metal and chemicals. In the metal sector, the Arcelor-Mittal Steel plant, the Cape Gate Davsteel Wire and Steel plant, and the Ferromanganese plant of Samancor are the three main large baseline plants in the district, whilst DCDDorbyl Heavy Engineering is the biggest manufacturer of engineered products in Southern Africa. The municipality offers the best opportunity for growth and development as a result of availability of land for both residential and commercial development in a picturesque and tranquil setting. The Vaal University of Technology and the North-West University’s Vaal Campus offer a wide range of graduates that provide the bulwark of employees for business and industries that seek to set up operations in Sedibeng. It has a variety of attractions offering a vast cultural heritage and historical experience including, among others, the political breakthroughs that led to the country’s political turnabout. The Sedibeng region boasts several Heritage Sites related to the South African War of 1899-1902 and the two World Wars that followed. The Sharpeville Memorial Precinct stands as a reminder of the Sharpeville Massacre of 21 March 1960, when 69 people lost their lives while protesting the pass laws of the then apartheid South Africa.

RECYCLING

has numerous beneﬁts for entrepreneurs and communities Preserving the environment for future generations is everyone’s responsibility and when it comes to recycling, it takes a team e ort to achieve the best possible outcomes. South Africans from all walks of life can take their place on this team to make waste recycling a national success story and a viable business opportunity.

“In line with South Africa’s national waste management philosophy, we believe that the disposal of waste into landfills should be a last resort,” says John Hunt, managing director of Mpact Recycling, one of the leading paper recyclers in South Africa. “In our country’s environmental and economic history, it has never been more crucial for us to separate and correctly dispose of household and business recyclables.” Mpact Recycling collects approximately 450,000 tons of recovered paper per annum, and supplies this recovered fibre to the Group’s paper mills for processing into recycled-based cartonboard and containerboard for sale to South Africa’s packaging industry. Hunt says a culture of recycling has emerged in South Africa which is having a positive effect on poverty alleviation, enterprise development and economic growth. Sustainability is key to the business of Mpact Recycling and this includes sta member from the Mpact buy-back centre assists a trolleypreneur with o oading paper & cardboard onto the scale for weighing.

contributing to the economy of the country through job creation. Mpact Recycling takes a multi-faceted approach to enterprise development. For informal traders, trolley-preneurs, small businesses and buy-back centres – all of whom are important team players in the national recycling industry - Mpact Recycling provides a market for waste material salvaged from households, supermarkets, schools, offices and other sources. Buy-back centres are important enterprises for Mpact Recycling to focus its social investment and livelihood creation, whilst expanding the collection and recycling of paper and plastic. Predominantly based in rural areas or townships, suppliers to the buy-back centres often live in informal settlements and rely completely on this income to provide for their families. The buy-back centres therefore make a substantial contribution to developing entrepreneurs and also generating income in the surrounding communities. Mpact Recycling pays and collects from these centres on a regular basis, assisting with cash ow and this ensures these businesses further grow their profit margins. In outsourcing its transport and the onsite operations at each of its branches to small business owners, Mpact Recycling has provided further opportunities to develop an empowered workforce and a strong entrepreneurial spirit. These small companies have grown to become an important focal point of the company’s enterprise development. Several community focused initiatives strongly underpin Mpact Recycling’s activities. Its popular kerbside paper collection initiative in the form of the green Ronnie bag is active in more than

Also, Mpact’s schools’ paper pick-up programme allows schools to raise funds while educating learners on the importance of recycling and environmental awareness. The 2,000 green Ronnie paper banks located countrywide at these schools & communities make it easy for parents, teachers & consumers to drop off their paper for recycling anytime and the school or community benefits. or offices, Ronnie office recyclers are available for the easy separation and storage of paper while for larger commercial operations; Mpact Recycling deploys dedicated personnel at the premises to coordinate the sorting and collection of waste at the site in line with the required SHEQ standards and policies. “I invite all South Africans to step up and identify the roles they can play in this important industry. If you have never recycled before, make a start today,” concludes Hunt.

Kerbside collections taking place in designated areas within Johannesburg, Ekurhuleni and Tshwane every week.

OVERVIEW Area: 4 087km2 Description: West Rand District Municipality is located in the west of the

RANDFONTEIN

Gauteng province. The Cradle of Humankind falls under the jurisdiction of Mogale City and Merafong City, and forms part of the World Heritage Site. The West Rand extends from Randfontein (the seat of the district) in the west to Roodepoort in the east, and includes the town of Krugersdorp. It is bordered by Bojanala Platinum to the north-west, City of Tshwane to the north-east, City of Johannesburg to the east, Sedibeng to the south-east and Dr Kenneth Kaunda to the south-west. The municipality is situated relatively closely to the hub of economic activity in Gauteng, and is transversed by major national roads, namely the N12 and N14. Its main contribution lies primarily within the mining sector, however, areas such as Krugersdorp fulfil a residential function for many people working in Johannesburg. The West Rand remains the poorest region contributing to Gauteng’s GDP. The leadership of West Rand District Municipality has a new vision that entails dissolving the four local municipalities in the district into a single municipality by 2016. Vision 2016 includes a holistic approach to environmental concerns. There are opportunities for developing economies to benefit from climate change mitigation strategies and the West Rand will be making a strong case for private investors to assist in the growth of green and sustainable industries. Main Economic Sectors: Manufacturing (22%), mining (19%), community services (19%), finance (16%), trade (10%), transport (6%), construction (4%)

West Rand District Municipality in Gauteng. Its boundaries enclose some of the richest gold mines in the world. It is situated about 65km from Johannesburg and is serviced by a number of major roads, including the N12 from Johannesburg to Cape Town and the N14, which is the main road between Gauteng and Mahikeng (previously Mafikeng) via Ventersdorp. Formerly a cross-border municipality, the entire municipality was transferred to the North West province following the abolition of cross-border municipalities by an amendment to the South African Constitution in 2005. The municipality was part of the North West province from 2005 to 2009, when it was reincorporated into the Gauteng province by another amendment to the Constitution, following often violent protests in the township of Khutsong. Merafong’s historical development is closely knit with the discovery of rich gold deposits in the early 1930s. Fochville is the oldest town in the region, and was declared a town in 1951. The town Carletonville was named after Guy Carleton Jones, an engineer from the Gold Fields Ltd mining company, who played a prominent role in the discovery of the West Wits gold field, of which Carletonville forms a part. The mining company decided, in November 1946, to establish the town. Carletonville was proclaimed in 1948 and attained Town Council Status on 1 July 1959. Wedela is situated between Western Deep Levels and Elandsrand mine. The town’s name is derived from the prefixes of the two mines: the ‘Wed-’ from Western Deep Levels and the ‘-ela’ from Elandsrand. Wedela was established as a mining village in December 1978 by Harry Oppenheimer, and municipal status was granted to the town on 1 January 1990. Cities/Towns: Carletonville, Fochville, Wedela Main Economic Sectors: Mining (50.7%), trade (9.7%), finance and business services (9.9%), community services (9.2%), general government (9.1%)

To the north, west and south it borders onto the Madibeng, Rustenburg and Randfontein Local Municipalities respectively. The northern part of Mogale City comprises the bulk of the Cradle of Humankind World Heritage Site. Mogale City’s strongest functional urban linkage is with the City of Johannesburg. Krugersdorp and the greater Kagiso area, Mogale City’s primary urban complex, forms part of a band of development stretching from the Johannesburg Inner City westwards along the mining belt up to Krugersdorp. The strongest eastwest transport linkages between Mogale City and Johannesburg are along the R512, as well as the east-west railway line. Mogale City is linked to the City of Tshwane via the R28/N14 highway. The largest part of Mogale City is rural, with a specific urban concentration in the south-eastern part of the municipality where it interfaces with the Gauteng urban complex. The rural environment is characterised by prominent features: the Magaliesburg and Witwatersberg Ranges in the north-west. Rural towns in Mogale City are Tarlton, Magaliesburg and Hekpoort, located in the west. An urban concentration is found in the south-eastern part around Krugersdorp and Kagiso. The Krugersdorp CBD is the main business, social and administration centre and fulfils a regional function. The areas around Krugersdorp are established middle-to-high income residential areas with the full range of urban amenities, services and facilities. The areas to the south of Krugersdorp, namely Kagiso, Azaadville and Rietvallel (referred to as the Kagiso complex), are predominantly disadvantaged settlements with more limited access to service and facilities. The Kagiso complex is physically separated from Krugersdorp’s urban areas by an extensive mining belt that runs roughly in an eastwest direction through the area.

CITY OF TSHWANE

CASE STUDY

PATIENT REGISTRATION OCTOBER 2015

background The City of Tshwane provides a total of 25 public primary health facilities within its municipal boundary. These facilities range from large clinics in the city, to smaller clinics in the suburbs and community health care centres in rural areas. The purpose of these facilities is to provide primary health care offered free by the state to people who need it and cannot afford private medical care. The Department of Health holds overall responsibility for health care, with a specific responsibility for the public sector. One of the main functions of the clinics is the dispensing of chronic medication to patients through the pharmacies and consulting rooms at the clinics. Medication is dispensed for conditions such as HIV, TB and Diabetes.

thechallenge Pharmacies within the public primary health facilities are impacted negatively because some patients collect chronic medication at more than one government (provincial and local) site per month, thus resulting in overdispensing, a significant increase in costs to health care and increased waiting times for patients. There is currently no way to identify a patient effectively, allowing a patient to register more than once under different identities, and at different facilities. This increases the problem of overdispensing. It had been discovered that a single patient who visited more than one site per month had been prescribed different chronic medication at different sites.

A further challenge is the dispensing of certain classes of chronic medication, which end up in the hands of criminal elements who use this medication for the manufacture of illegal substances.

thesolution The City of Tshwane installed the GreenBox biometric enrolment device at registration points within the 25 public primary health facilities. Their current patient administration system was seamlessly integrated with the GreenBox using the GreenForm SDK. This enabled them to use the enrolment and verification features from within their current application. As part of the registration process each patient’s identity is first verified against their ID documentation, a picture of the patient is taken and their fingerprints are scanned using the GreenBox and GreenForm SDK. These biometric templates are stored centrally in the GreenStore EDRMS for verification purposes later. Biometric verification devices were installed in the consulting rooms and pharmacies to ensure the patient being treated and dispensed to was in fact the patient enrolled. The solution enabled the City of Tshwane to eliminate duplication dispensing of chronic medication to patients throughout the 25 public primary health facilities within the municipal boundary, and create a centralised patient database giving medical professionals and pharmacy staff a single view of a patient. Senior management have access to a dashboard that shows daily statistics of patient enrolments and patient verifications.

LABOUR FORCE KwaZulu-Natal is located in the south-east of South Africa bordering the Indian Ocean. It also borders on the Eastern Cape, Free State and Mpumalanga provinces, as well as Lesotho, Swaziland and Mozambique. The ‘Garden Province’ of South Africa stretches from the lush subtropical east coast washed by the warm Indian Ocean, to the sweeping savanna in the east and the majestic Drakensberg Mountain Range in the west. It covers an area of 94 361km2, the third-smallest in the country, and has a population of 10 267 300, making it the second most populous province in South Africa. The capital is Pietermaritzburg. The largest city is Durban. Other major cities and towns include Richards Bay, Port Shepstone, Newcastle, Estcourt, Ladysmith and Richmond. The province’s manufacturing sector is the largest in terms of contribution to GDP. Richards Bay is the centre of operations for South Africa’s aluminium industry. The Richards Bay Coal Terminal is instrumental in securing the country’s position as the second-largest exporter of steam coal in the world. The province has undergone rapid industrialisation owing to its abundant water supply and labour resources. Agriculture is also central to the economy. The sugar cane plantations along the coastal belt are the mainstay of KwaZulu-Natal’s agriculture. The coastal belt is also a large producer of subtropical fruit, while the farmers inland concentrate on vegetable, dairy and stock farming. Another source of income is forestry in the areas around Vryheid, Eshowe, Richmond, Harding and Ngome. KwaZulu-Natal is divided into one metropolitan municipality (eThekwini Metropolitan Municipality) and 10 district municipalities, which are further subdivided into 50 local municipalities.

OVERVIEW Area: 1 516km2 Description: Dannhauser Local Municipality is named after an old farming family that lived in the area. Dannhauser is one of three local municipalities within the Amajuba District Municipality. It is the smallest municipality within the district. The town of Dannhauser is located midway between Durban and Johannesburg on the main railway line, about 8km off the national road

METRO MUNICIPALITY

between the two cities. It is surrounded by some of the largest coalproducing mines in KwaZulu-Natal. Numerous rivers flow through the municipal area, the most important being the Ngagane and uMzinyathi Rivers, and there are scenic landscapes in the western portion of the municipality. Dannhauser functions as a small rural service centre (providing commercial and service facilities, and agricultural industries and services). It is therefore not a large employment generator. Residents of the municipal area rely on the larger urban centres of Dundee and Newcastle for employment opportunities and higher order goods and services. Investment in commerce has growth prospects. Cities/Towns: Dannhauser, Hattingspruit Main Economic Sectors: Agriculture, mining (30%), manufacturing (13.8%), services (Continued on page 150)

ADVERTORIAL

Industrial Symbiosis Programme innovates waste management Implementation of resource efficiency and cleaner production (RECP) projects over the past 10 years has shown that industry is increasingly concerned by not only energy and water usage, but also by the amount of waste generated by businesses. Industrial Symbiosis is one approach to waste minimisation that makes both environmental and business sense.

The NCPC-SA was established by the dti and is hosted by the CSIR Ndivhuho Raphulu, Director at the National Cleaner Production Centre (NCPC-SA), explains, “Waste is an unused resource. The subsidised Industrial Symbiosis Programme (ISP) connects companies so that they can identify potential synergies for ‘waste swapping’. Industrial Symbiosis reduces carbon dioxide emissions, landfill costs, use of virgin resources, industrial water usage, hazardous waste, pollution, transport, risks and costs. It also connects industries that might never have engaged in the natural course of business.” The NCPC-SA ran a pilot ISP in 2010 and after rigorous refining and consultation, which included a scoping analysis to ensure that the South African legislative environment was conducive to a national ISP, it presented its first workshop in 2013.

HOW IT WORKS

“The response was very encouraging and has been growing with each workshop. In fact, in the third workshop held in September 2015, we had double the number of scheduled participants with 68 industries represented and 124 participants! We are currently tracking the progress of 41 out of 62 companies that committed to the programme,” Henry Nuwarinda, Project Manager for Green Industries and Waste Management at the NCPC-SA adds.

Nuwarinda relates, “These workshops bring companies together through a process of careful facilitation that protects business-sensitive information, companies share what waste or under-utilised resources they have. The latter could vary from a boardroom that is only used once a week to a truck that returns empty after a delivery.

ISP’s are currently run in Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal, both managed by the NCPC-SA and in the Western Cape by GreenCape. All three programmes collaborate and share information to connect the businesses that have waste to businesses that can use that waste.

Industrial Symbiosis Programme workshops in numbers Gauteng (two workshops) 108 companies 553 resources discussed 1308 potential synergies captured KwaZulu-Natal (one workshop) 26 companies 130 resources discussed 228 potential synergies captured

NCPC.indd 2

DIRECTOR NDIVHUHO RAPHULU.

A workshop, involving companies of various sizes and from different sectors, is the first step towards benefiting from the Industrial Symbiosis Programme.

The information gathered at the workshop is collated by the NCPC-SA and each participant is supplied with a customised list of those companies that showed an interest in its waste offering as well as those companies that indicated they can respond to its waste needs. During the second phase the participating companies follow up with their ‘matches’ to get the ball rolling prior to negotiating the terms of their waste exchange. In phase three, the waste starts moving away from landfill and to the ‘matched’ ISP participant. The concluding step involves the signing of a formal agreement.

MONITORING RESULTS The NCPC-SA’s involvement does not end there. “We are currently calculating the waste diverted from landfill as well as savings accrued by participants, environmental impact, production improvements, effects on employment opportunities – a range of indicators to substantiate the positive anecdotal feedback we have received so far,” relates Nuwarinda. The NCPC-SA hopes to release its first ISP results during the first quarter of 2016.

Gwala District Municipality (previously Sisonke District Municipality). The main administrative centre of the municipality is the town of Ixopo, which is located approximately 85km south-east of Pietermaritzburg, the capital of KwaZulu-Natal. It is strategically located at the intersection of four major provincial routes leading to Pietermaritzburg, the Drakensberg, the Eastern Cape and the South Coast. The town of Ixopo forms the primary development node of the municipality and has also been selected as the seat of the Harry Gwala District Council. The importance of Ixopo cannot be underestimated in the socio-economic development of the area as a whole. Ixopo plays an important role in terms of the possible location for industry, commerce and other economic activity. It is a major education and health centre, and assists in the diffusion of new ideas and technologies to the rural areas. It is also the primary base for the operation of many departments and service providers. In line with the KwaZulu-Natal Integrated Rural Development Policy, a number of secondary development nodes have been identified. The intention of secondary development nodes is to identify welllocated settlements where government and municipal services, administrative functions, and commercial and residential development will be encouraged to locate in the future. The secondary and tertiary development nodes identified are: Highflats, Hlutankungu (previously Stuartsville), Jolivet, KwaBhidla, Emgodi and Hlokozi.

UPSIZING PVC-0 PIPING MOLECOR, a Spanish company specialising in developing and manufacturing pipes in Oriented PVC (PVC-0) for the conveyance of water under pressure, has achieved a new milestone with the production and presentation of the only Oriented PVC (PVC-0) pipe of 800 mm in diameter - thus becoming the ﬁrst manufacturer - worldwide - to overcome this size barrier. This adds to the company’s previous achievement of producing PVC-0 pipes of nominal diameters of 500 and 630 mm. Management credits this latest achievement to the company commitment to becoming a world leader in the development of technology for pipelines. In this pursuit, Molecor has focused on innovation, research and development, in order to provide solutions to the challenges presented by the water supply market.

The TOM PVC-0 pipe has always offered a reliable solution for water transport under pressure and now, thanks to the new diameter available, offers even greater versatility of use in the management of water utilisation and energy cost reduction, with a low environmental footprint. The range is available locally through Sizabantu Piping Systems, a marketing and sales group which supplies a comprehensive range of quality pipe & drainage solutions to the Agricultural, Civil, Mining, Industrial & Builders Merchants Markets in Southern Africa. SPS Manufacturing is in a joint venture with Molecor, investing R300 million in the construction of the Sizabantu Piping System (SPS) Manufacturing Plant, which has been ofﬁcially opened. They will be manufacturing a new technology Bi-Axle Orientated PVC pressure pipe.

By using a molecular orientation process, it has been possible to also improve the mechanical properties of the pipe. They thus weight less, making them easier to handle and install. Among other distinguishing features of the TOM Pipes, are their exceptional physical and mechanical properties, which offer high impact resistance, greater hydraulic capacity, improved water hammer performance, high chemical resistance, are completely watertight, lower load losses and are easy to install.

POLITICAL & ADMINISTRATIVE MANAGEMENT

Local Municipality) covers the area from the Amatikulu River to a line just south of Mtunzini in the north, and to a line south of the uThukela River just north of Darnall. The uThukela River is the largest river in KwaZulu-Natal, and was the historical border between Zululand and Natal. Mandeni Local Municipality is strategically located midway between Durban and Richards Bay, and lies on the development corridor on the north coast between these two major port cities in KwaZulu-Natal. It is located on the major railway and road transportation routes which link these two economic hubs. This strategic location is also acknowledged in the Provincial Spatial Framework, which has identified Mandeni as the growth node in the north coast corridor. The construction of the new Dube Trade Port and King Shaka International Airport has much economic, social and employment implications for the municipality because of its location. Mandeni is the only urban settlement of substance and functions as the service centre for a substantial hinterland. Mandeni consists of fragmented pockets of intensive urban settlement separated by areas of little or no development. Four rural settlements, Hlomendlini, Macambini, Mathonsi and Ndulinde, are each under an Inkosi. All are underdeveloped and have major backlogs in service provision. The municipality has no capacity to supply the whole area with electricity. Transport infrastructure is well developed, with a high standard of road and rail services into the area.

in the iLembe District of KwaZulu-Natal. Maphumulo is an isiZulu name meaning ‘place of rest’. The municipality is predominantly rural, mostly comprising tribal land, which is administered by the Ingonyama Trust on behalf of local communities. Sugar cane cultivation is the predominant economic activity and land use in the municipality. Subsistence agricultural activities in the form of small cropping areas attached to traditional family units dominate land usage. The R74 Main Road provides access from KwaDukuza to the hinterland and then leads on to Kranskop and Greytown. The linkage to the N2 is vital as it provides for migrant labour transport, and access to commercial and employment markets in the Durban Metro and to the Tongaat/ Maidstone, the Dolphin Coast, KwaDukuza, Darnall and Isithebe areas.

by a coastline of 112km. The district is made up of six local municipalities: Vulamehlo, Umdoni, uMzumbe, Hibiscus Coast, Ezinqoleni and Umuziwabantu, all of which have played a critical role in the cultivation of the district’s economy. The Hibiscus Coast Municipality is the ultimate economy booster due to its location. Commercial agriculture in the district produces one-fifth of all bananas consumed in South Africa, with numerous companies successfully exporting these and other products to some of the most exclusive packers in the United Kingdom. The Ugu District also prides itself as one of the leading district municipalities in the KwaZulu-Natal province for winning two major technical excellence awards. The municipality won the 2011 South African Institute of Civil Engineers Pietermaritzburg Branch Award for Technical Excellence in the design and construction of the uMzimkhulu Off-Channel Storage Dam, and came third as the Provincial Best Performer in KwaZuluNatal in terms of Blue Drop municipal scores, thereby earning four Blue Drop Excellence Awards for the municipality’s Water Treatment Works. The district and its communities are the proud owners of Blue Flag Status beaches, which have marked tourism as a major economic cultivator. The municipality has become a destination of note for tourists through its warm ambiance and the expansion of its economy and infrastructure. The improvement of its infrastructure, education, health and recreational facilities contributes immensely to its adventurous lifestyle. The nurturing of the local economy highly features tourism and agriculture, and includes the district’s very own Ugu Jazz Festival. It also includes other renowned annual activities, such as the Africa Bike Week, which have gained momentum worldwide. Main Economic Sectors: Manufacturing (19%), finance, insurance, real estate and business services (17%), wholesale and retail trade, catering and accommodation (17%), transport, storage and communication (11%), agriculture, forestry and fishing (8%), community, social and personal services (7%), construction (4%)

Natal Joint Municipal Pension/KwaZulu-Natal Joint Municipal Provident Funds

Natal Joint Municipal Pension Fund acknowledged for excellence At the Natal Joint Municipal Pension/KwaZulu-Natal Joint Municipal Provident Funds (NJMPF), we strive to help our members reach their retirement goals. We do this through prudent investment strategies that have resulted in strong investment performance in recent years. The good investment performance has resulted in improved benefits for our members and pensioners over the past 5 years, for example: • Our Superannuation Fund benefits have improved by 78%. This means we have been able to provide pension increases of 36.59% plus bonuses/13th cheques of 41.65%. • Our Retirement Fund benefits have improved by 65% and we have been able to give pension increases of 39.97% and bonuses/13th cheques of 24.99%. • The NJMPF in 2015 provided benefits totalling 22.73% to pensioners, which consisted of a 14.40% increase as well as a 13th cheque of 8.33%. • Our Provident Fund is consistently ranked in the top quartile because of the good investment performance. This makes our Provident Fund one of the country’s top investment managers. In the Provident Fund, if you had invested an amount of R1 million in the year 2000, your investment earnings would have increased significantly by eightfold, to be worth more than R 8.5 million in the year 2015 (after costs). We want to better the lives of our members and provide them with dignity during their retirement years. Our mission is to serve the best interests of members by ensuring a high standard of retirement funding services and to provide financial security. Our AAA score with the Institute of Directors and clean audit reports from the Auditor-General for more than a decade is testimony to our dedication to sound financial and administration systems. The NJMPF’s good governance and clean audits build trust and confidence. The Fund also invests resources into educating members on financial literacy. Over the years we have been able to collaborate with a variety of institutions, including the Financial Services Board, with the idea of enhancing the level of financial knowledge for our stakeholders. We aim to promote education regarding financial literacy as part of the national campaign.

•

Merit certificate for Excellence in Alignment of Previously Disadvantaged Fund to the Previously Advantaged Fund in 2015; and Legal and Technical Compliance awards from the IRFA in 2013 and 2014.

In 2015 we also received awards from the Council of Retirement Funds for South Africa (Batseta) in the following categories: • Trophy/Industry winner for Financial Control; and • Trophy/Industry winner for Financial Knowledge and Understanding. In September 2015, the Fund was presented with an international award in New York by Africa Investor, in the category of African Pension Fund Initiative of the Year. The Fund has been in existence for more than 70 years; such experience and knowledge has put the Fund a step ahead in delivering good service to its members. Although the awards are a good indicator of the NJMPF’s good performance, it is rewarding when this performance is translated into real benefits for our members. The NJMPF will continue to strive for best practices in the retirement industry as we acknowledge that a pension fund has the responsibility to safeguard members’ futures.

Due to these sound financial practices, the Fund has received multiple recognitions from retirement fund institutions, such as the Institute of Retirement Funds Africa (IRFA), in the following areas: • Communications awards in 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015; • Trophy/Industry winner for Investment Performance and Merit Certificate for SRI and ESG in 2014; • Trophy/Industry winner for excellence in Trustee Development from the IRFA in 2015; • Merit certificate for Trustee Training at nomination stage from the IRFA in 2015; • Merit certificate for Treating Customers Fairly: Internal Training from IRFA in 2015; Pictured right: Cheryl Ward (COO), Sam Camilleri (CEO), Bongi Mkhize (CFO)

OVERVIEW This municipality will be disestablished and its municipal area merged into the eThekwini Metropolitan Municipality and the Umdoni Local Municipality after the 2016 local government elections. Area: 960km2 Description: Vulamehlo Local Municipality forms part of the Ugu District Municipality. It is located south of the eThekwini Municipality and is bordered by Umdoni to the east, Mkhambathini and Richmond to the north, and Ubuhlebezwe to the west. The municipal area is predominantly tribal, with common tribal land patterns. There are, however, also a few scattered pockets of privately owned land throughout the municipal area. The dispersed, low-density settlement pattern makes the provision of physical and social infrastructure (roads, water, electricity, clinics, schools, and police stations) and the costs of installing, maintaining and operating the infrastructure very high. The Vulamehlo Municipality is one of the localities within the Ugu District that is hardest hit by high unemployment levels, poverty and negative economic growth rate. Main Economic Sectors: Agriculture, manufacturing, tourism, services

The Impendle area is extremely diverse in its topography, climate and soil, and has a rich and complex natural environment. Its location at the foot of the Drakensberg makes Impendle a highland area and an important source of water within the KwaZulu-Natal province. It is in the catchment area of the Mkhomazi River in the south and the Mngeni River in the north-east. High-density settlements occur around Impendle Town, in villages such as Gomane, KwaNovuka, Similobha and Kamensi. A second layer of relatively dense settlements occurs on the eastern side of the Impendle Mountain, while density decreases sharply towards the west, with a ribbon of small villages running along the Lotheni River.

OVERVIEW Area: 1 820km2 Description: Mpofana Local Municipality is located approximately 40km west of Pietermaritzburg. It is bounded by three municipalities: uMngeni in the south, uMshwathi in the east, and Impendle in the west. The municipality benefits from its strategic position as it has easy access to rail, KZN provincial roads and the N3 National Road. Almost 50% of the land in Mpofana has the potential for rural farming, with products set for the international market. Mooi River is a small town that germinated from a small farm and then, later, became the principal node of the Mpofana Municipality when a railway line linking Durban with Johannesburg, as well as the Drakensberg Mountains, was established in order to cater for the needs of the farmers in the area. This suggests that Mpofana has great potential for development through tourism. Cities/Towns: Mooi River Main Economic Sectors: Agriculture, tourism

OVERVIEW Area: 1 818km2 Description: uMshwathi Local Municipality is ideally situated within the uMgungundlovu District Municipality immediately adjacent to Pietermaritzburg. The municipality is located in an area that was largely under the control of tribal authorities until very recently. However, in the remaining portion there are towns built by German immigrants some 150 years ago. In the 1850s, 13 cotton planter families from Osnabruck unter Bergthell left Germany and settled in the area. They were followed by missionaries and other colonists, mostly from Hanover, who also settled in the region, founded New Hanover and Wartburg, and brought with them not only the Lutheran faith but the German language and culture. Wartburg itself is named after the castle in Eisenach, where Dr Martin Luther translated the bible into German. The village crest also depicts the immigrants’ arrival by sailing ship, the Luther Rose, and the call to ‘pray and work’. The land is mostly agricultural, although urban development is to be found in the main towns. The communities living in the underdeveloped areas have extremely limited access to basic physical and social requirements and very few economic opportunities. The present authority structures are, as yet, unable to provide for the improvement of basic living conditions urgently required by the rural inhabitants.

OVERVIEW AUDIT OUTCOME

KWAZULU-NATAL

Area: 3 442km2 Description: Jozini Local Municipality is located in northern KwaZuluNatal and borders Swaziland and Mozambique. The Lebombo Mountains and Makhatini Flats provide a diverse and beautiful terrain rich in local resources, including water features and fossil sites. Both Ndumu and Mkuzi Game Reserves can be found straddling the borders of the Jozini Municipality. Significant portions of Jozini have been neglected in terms of economic development. There is a great disparity between the level of service and infrastructure provision between settlement nodes such as the towns of Mkuze and Jozini, and the surrounding rural areas. Most of the rural area is associated with a lack of development, poverty and poor service provision.

OVERVIEW

FINANCIAL INFORMATION*

district. Msinga is largely located in deep gorges of the Tugela and Buffalo Rivers. This effectively isolates the area from the immediate surrounding municipal areas. Msinga is accessible via the R33, linking it with Dundee, Ladysmith, Pietermaritzburg, Kranskop and Weenen. It is a largely rural area, with 70% of its area being traditional authority land held in trust by the Ingonyama Trust. The remaining 30% of land is commercial farmland, all of which is located to the north of Pomeroy. Due to the rural nature of the municipality, approximately 99% of the population lives in traditional areas. The population dynamics result in a growing rural area and a declining urban area in Msinga. This can be attributed to the fact that the urban areas of Msinga are very small and are unable to provide the normal range of goods and services provided in urban areas. As a result, the population utilises the neighbouring areas of Emnambithi and Umvoti for urban services.

OVERVIEW

T Mazibuko (Director: Social and Economic Development Services)

Area: 3 971km2 Description: Okhahlamba Local Municipality is situated in the

LED ACTIVITIES

mountainous region of KwaZulu-Natal between Lesotho, the Free State, Emnambithi/Ladysmith and uMtshezi. Okhahlamba is made up of privately owned commercial farmland; smallholder settlements; the urban areas of Bergville, Winterton, Cathkin Park and Geluksberg; and two tribal authority areas. The area is relatively well linked through the network of existing provincial roads that run through the municipality. The municipality is largely reliant on Ladysmith for facilities such as shopping, medical services and education, among others. Large capital expenditure is needed to meet service backlogs in the area. Bergville is a small town and is known as the gateway to the Northern Drakensberg. Approximately half a million tourists are attracted to the Drakensberg annually. Bergville hosts an office of the Drakensberg Publicity Association. The ideally-situated agricultural and trading centre of Bergville, less than 50km from the towering Amphitheatre of Royal Natal, was laid out by a retired sea captain in 1897. Two years later, at the onset of the Anglo-Boer War, British forces built a blockhouse in the settlement. The building is now a monument and museum within the grounds of the Bergville Courthouse. The council manages a caravan park and holiday huts on the bank of the uThukela River. A playground and facilities for sports, including swimming, tennis, bowls, cricket, golf, rugby and badminton, are available. A modern community hall serves as a town hall. Cities/Towns: Bergville, Cathkin Park, Winterton Main Economic Sectors: Manufacturing (29%), wholesale and retail trade (12%), finance, insurance, real estate and business services

Key Projects: Assist cooperatives in marketing their craft through exhibitions; give start-up loans to SMMEs.

Key Investment Opportunities: Development of Okhahlamba Development Agency – focuses on attracting investors.

coastal region of KwaZulu-Natal, and is part of the uThungulu District Municipality. It is approximately 170km north of Durban. The picturesque town of Melmoth was founded in 1888 as a ‘gold-rush’ town on a portion of the farm Golden Reef, when the British government annexed Zululand in 1887 and established several magisterial districts. It was decided to administer Mthonjaneni from a town named after the resident commissioner – Sir Melmoth Osborn. The former Melmoth Traditional Local Council area is the only town that was incorporated by the Mthonjaneni Municipality. In the past, the town performed the function of a dormitory town (and still does to some extent) for those who worked in the neighbouring town of Ulundi. Mthonjaneni is one of the smallest municipalities in South Africa, but it has the distinction of being regarded as one of the healthiest places to live in this country. It is close to the Hluhluwe-Umfolozi and Opathe Game Reserves. Cities/Towns: Melmoth Main Economic Sectors: Agriculture (33.5%), community services (20.9%), manufacturing (14%), finance (10.9%)

OVERVIEW POLITICAL & ADMINISTRATIVE MANAGEMENT

Area: 2 300km2 Description: uMlalazi Local Municipality is one of six local municipalities

Composition of Council: ANC 25, IFP 17, NFP 9, DA 1 Mayor: Mr T B Zulu Other Members of Council: M M M Ntuli (Deputy Mayor), E N Mtshali

located within the area of the uThungulu District Municipality. It is characterised by an undulating topography, causing difficulties with respect to the delivery of engineering services. The municipality is one of the largest local authority areas in South Africa. It borders on the Indian Ocean and has a coastline of approximately 17km. The municipal area consists of commercial farming areas in a broad, continuous band from the west of Eshowe to KwaGingindlovu (previously Gingindlovu) and to the north of Mtunzini. The rest of the area consists of tribal authority land, where land management has been poor. The uMlalazi Municipality is crossed by a number of important transportation routes, such as the N2 motorway between Durban and Richards Bay, the R34 between Richards Bay/Empangeni and Nkwaleni Valley to the north of Eshowe, and the R66 from the N2 motorway to KwaGingindlovu, Eshowe, Melmoth, Ulundi and Vryheid. The population distribution in the municipal area is characterised by relatively high population densities within urban nodes and low densities in rural areas. The municipal area is dominated by tribal areas, and 14 tribal authorities exist within the area. The town of Eshowe is of great historical significance in that it is the birthplace of Cetshwayo, who was king of the Zulus during the Anglo-Zulu War of 1879. Eshowe Town is also considered the administrative and service centre of the uMlalazi Municipality. The coastal town of Mtunzini is situated on the north coast of KwaZuluNatal on the banks of the uMlalazi River, and borders on the uMlalazi Nature Reserve. Mtunzini is the number one residential and ecotourist destination in South Africa.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION*

Zululand District Municipality. It lies adjacent to the Swaziland Border and the Mpumalanga Province Border. It has the third-biggest area in the district after the AbaQulusi and Ulundi Municipalities. It is also a gateway to Swaziland and Mpumalanga. Main access to the municipality is via the N2 from Gauteng in the north-west and Durban in the south. The municipality provides regional access to a wide range of tourist activities outside its own boundaries. Main rivers in the municipality are the Mkuze River in the south and the Pongola River in the north, the latter feeding the Pongolapoort Dam located on the eastern boundary of the municipality. Together with the fragmented and sometimes dramatic topography of the area, the municipality contains, in overall terms, very low settlement densities, while on the other hand containing substantial recreational and tourism opportunities. The overall aim in terms of integrated development planning and land use management is to provide a secure environment for investment within the uPhongolo Municipality. The focus is on the investment in social and economic infrastructure and services, which will enable all the people of uPhongolo to make a contribution to the future sustainable development of the area.

MAYOR CLLR B N MTHETHWA

MESSAGE FROM THE MAYOR

KWAZULU-NATAL

It is a remarkable achievement that South Africa celebrates 20 years of freedom and democracy. However, the people of Jozini had not been experiencing the full benefits of this until the current leadership took over during 2011. Thus far, we have been able to increase provisions for housing as well as electricity for the community. All municipal infrastructure, including roads and halls, has been renovated and maintained. Refuse removal is one of our priorities, as well as the development and implementation of a public participation framework. Complaint management systems have been set up, our ward committees are functioning effectively, and our community development workers (CDWs) programme is flourishing. Revenue enhancement, credit control, and a cashflow management framework are taken care of, even though we are still challenged by not having our own land as a municipality. We have reached a very crucial milestone by receiving an unqualified audit opinion, 2012/13, for the first time, and we have so far managed to mobilise funding to implement LED projects and attract external investors.

VISION A municipality that provides sustainable service delivery, socioeconomic development and a better life for all.

MISSION To be a professional, effective, efficient and result-orientated municipality that, through integrated effort, continually promotes the social welfare and economic prosperity of all its residents, investors and tourists.

DEPUTY MAYOR CLLR T S MDLULI

SPEAKER CLLR M Z NYAWO

1. Active participation in operation Sukuma Sakhe, whereby the Mayor mobilised social partners to: - build houses for orphans - distribute food parcels - supply school uniforms and equipment.

2. Job Expansion Initiative In this programme, we recruited 200 more contract workers from each ward in addition to the 98 that we rotate annually, with a budget of R2 million funded from operating revenue. Women’s empowerment has also been taken care of, with about 21 Women’s Cooperatives having received a number of job opportunities, including the renovation of community halls, crèches, community toilets and sports fields.

COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES OF THE MUNICIPALITY Tourism is the Key Economic Sector Lake Jozini, as the dam is now called, has become popular as a tiger fishing destination, and because the dam borders with the Pongola Nature and Game Reserve, you can view wildlife from your boat while fireflies light up the early evening shoreline, transforming the water into an incandescent glow of fairy lights. The main attraction in this area is the return of the elephant, though there are also a vast number of other game to be viewed, including: buffalo, wildebeest, giraffe, zebra, kudu, bushbuck, duiker, steenbok, hyena, cheetah, wild dog, cerval cat, warthog, and even the occasional sighting of leopard that roam the Lebombo Mountains.

Good Climate

COMMITMENT We have turned the tide against most public servants’ sins by taking action to overcome, among other things: • Underspending • Culture of impunity • Sense of urgency • Theft • Substandard performance This has resulted in, among other things, Interim Distress Relief Initiatives. The Municipality, recognising the distress of poor families, embarked on the following initiatives as interim relief measures:

Jozini Municipality has one of the best climatic conditions in KwaZulu-Natal, and South Africa. This includes the best sunshine (which is conducive for renewable energy generation); weather conditions for good agricultural activity. It is one of a few areas where you can grow crops year round. It also provides leverage for tourism development. The area provides agriculture, drinking water for animals, and is a catalyst for urban development and economic growth. It is also a source of renewable energy for sustainable energy supply to uMkhanyakude District’s economy.

Magnificent Jozini Bridge and Dam Jozini Dam is the third-largest dam in South Africa. The Jozini Dam was originally built to irrigate over 80 000ha of farmland on the Makatini flats, supporting products such as sugar cane, cotton, maize and various subtropical fruits. It is the best tiger fishing destination in South Africa, with tiger fish of 5-10kg being caught regularly these days now that the fish population in the Jozini Dam is well established.

Strategic Location as a Border Post Jozini Municipality borders two countries that are important to its economic growth: Swaziland and Mozambique. This location is important in terms of major infrastructure and economic development projects and programmes the two countries have embarked upon, in close proximity to our border. The Mozambique government and other SADC countries (Botswana, Swaziland, Zimbabwe and South Africa) have agreed to build one of the largest ports 30km from Kosi Bay, including an urban expansion. This border area is dominated by strategic natural heritage projects such as the Ndumo Game Reserve and Tembe Elephant Park, Kosi Bay, and other similar natural resources.

Above from left: Jozini Bridge – this is one of the most beautiful curved bridges in the country. One can be proud walking over it, as it crosses Jozini Dam for about 650m and stands 60m above the water; Ghost Mountain – this is a great and strange mountain. On top of it is a grey peak shaped like the head of an old woman. Looking east from Mkuze, two very pronounced features rise out of the Lebombo Range. On the left, Gaza, and on the right, Tshaneni. At irregular intervals over the years, strange lights and flickering fires have been seen amongst the cracks and cliffs of the summit. Weird noises and strange calls have also been heard. Eventually it was thought to be haunted but, of course, it wasn’t.

Agriculture Potential

Lebombo Mountain Range The Lebombo Mountain Range is an important natural heritage feature of the Municipality. Historians have recently confirmed that the geological formation starts somewhere around Hluhluwe and ends somewhere in Turkey (Europe). This mountain range is contrasted by uMhlabuyalingana (meaning ‘a widespread, flat area’), starting at the foot of the Lebombo Mountain Range and extending into the ocean. This terrain provides for diverse agricultural practice, given the different weather patterns found within short distances.

Above: Accommodation facilities – Jozini has a wide range of lodges, hotels, and bed and breakfast accommodation.

KWAZULU-NATAL

Jozini Municipality has all the necessary ingredients for massive and diverse agricultural practice, given the climate, soil types and conditions, water availability, and stable weather throughout the year. It is the only area in the whole district in which two to three crop cycles can be harvested.

Lavumisa and Ponta do Ouro Border Posts (and, possibly, Cecil Mack Pass) Lavumisa and Ponta do Ouro border posts are the most strategic borders of Swaziland and Mozambique. It is through these two border posts that millions of people and millions of tonnes of cargo move between the three countries. They link these countries to South Africa’s premier ports at Richards Bay and Durban Harbours.

Cultural Heritage Jozini is one of the richest areas in KwaZulu-Natal in terms of cultural heritage. Key cultural heritage features include: • Hlathikulu indigenous forest in Jozini (Kwa-Nyawo Traditional Council) • Late Inkosi Dingane’s grave in Hlathikulu Forest • His Majesty, King Goodwill Zwelithini’s Palace in Emachobeni, Ingwavuma.

Above from left: Usuthu Gorge – the river rises near Amsterdam, Mpumalanga, South Africa, and flows through Swaziland in an easterly direction, where it enters the Lebombo Mountains. The 13km gorge forms the boundary between Swaziland and South Africa. For about 20km, it forms the border between South Africa (province of KwaZulu-Natal) and Mozambique. There, in the Ndumo Game Reserve, it absorbs its largest tributary, the Pongola River. It then meanders through the Mozambiçan coastal plain and empties into southern Maputo Bay, some 85km downstream; Red Cliff – this cliff is situated next to KuMahemane and is located in the Ndumo Game Reserve, with a relaxed resting area for tourists. It is an original clay cliff.

N2, R22 and R66 National Roads These three national roads are important infrastructures for public transport and movement of goods between the three countries.

Jozini Dam Jozini Dam is one of the Municipality’s competitive advantages. The dam is a major source of drinking water for people, irrigation for farmers, and has assisted in completing a massive mall recently opened in Jozini.

Above: Mozi Pan is well known for the abundance of waterbird species found there. Surrounded by rural villages and woodland, the pans are situated on the Mkhuze River floodplain between Mkhuze Game Reserve and Lake St Lucia. The density and diversity of birds heightens during summer and more than 100 species can be seen on a summer’s day. Nile crocodiles and large numbers of hippos are present in the pan system.

MAYOR CLLR CHRIS NDLELA

MUNICIPAL MANAGER MR MXOLISI NKOSI

VISION Living in the city of choice second to none 2030, where we aim to be a safe, vibrant city in which to live, learn, raise a family, work, play and do business.

OVERVIEW Situated on the corridor between eThekwini and Gauteng, Msunduzi has great opportunities to build its residents and businesses so that they truly live the vision of being a city of choice. A large part of that vision is focusing on a few strategic choices to ensure that Msunduzi not only has more equitable economic growth, but that it reduces poverty and improves governance. Over the past few years, its efforts as a city have been inwardlooking. It has spent a lot of energy putting the city back on the path of good governance, with new management now employed to assist the staff as a whole in improving governance. Collectively, the city must get back to basics and make its residents proud by ensuring it provides them with basic services and amenities. It has heard too, the challenges experienced by businesses, which require better services at the right price, and which also expect a city that is responsive to its needs. Msunduzi must also assist the educational sector to ensure it continues to deliver excellence not only to its residents, but to southern Africa. It must, of course, also address the terrible scourge of poverty and unemployment.

circumstances. Importantly, the strategy would be reflected in the city budgets and activities. It would define the path needed to get there. In developing the CDS, Msunduzi needed to take stock of where it currently was. It needed to collectively decide on key strategic focus areas and ensure that it institutionalised these strategies into the functioning of the municipality. The city launched the first part of that process, with the release of a draft discussion document. It was made available for comment and consideration by all interested parties. Over the following few months the information provided continued to be refined so that the document became the foundation on which the Msunduzi CDS was built. More importantly, though, the city embarked on a process of developing its strategic options going forward. In this regard it invited all interested and affected stakeholders to provide their views on the strategies and action plans to define a long-term perspective. The consultants who assisted the Municipal Manager in this campaign were City Insight (Pty) Ltd. During October, after these initial discussions, the city led a set of sectoral and general workshops to further refine what emanated from the stakeholder consultations. At its last Council meeting Msunduzi approved the City Development Strategy. The strategy is aligned with the city’s National Development Plan, the Provincial Growth and Development Plan, and the IDPs of its municipality and the Umgungundlovu District. The CDS suggests eight strategies that will transform the way the Municipality delivers on its mandate and that focus directly on key needs:

1. BUILDING A CAPABLE AND DEVELOPMENTAL MUNICIPALITY: Ensuring that all senior management are skilled, able and progressive in their approach to actively contributing toward reaching the Municipality’s goals.

2. BACK TO BASICS – CLEANING, REPAIRING, ENFORCING AND RESPONDING: Rapidly addressing dysfunctional or problematic areas of service delivery, with a dedicated focus on high population and commuter areas, and a sustained and fair enforcement of by-laws. The emphasis will also be on addressing the needs of underserviced parts of the city.

3. IMPROVED INFRASTRUCTURAL EFFICIENCY: Planning, budgeting, implementing and maintaining its infrastructure so that it is functional and efficient. This will include a review of its municipal infrastructure and the development of a municipal infrastructure plan, asset management system, and a realistic funding strategy. 4. FINANCIAL SUSTAINABILITY: Ensuring the city is in a far stronger financial position by finding ways to increase revenues, address billing and collection issues, have a tougher stance around illegal connections, and take active measures against nonpayment.

MSUNDUZI CITY DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY In 2014, the city began to clearly articulate its longer term vision through the development of an Msunduzi City Development Strategy (CDS). UN Habitat captured the goals of such strategies in saying that ‘the goals of a CDS process include a collective city vision and strategy, improved urban governance and management, increased investment, and systematic and sustained reductions in urban poverty’. But what did this mean, what was the detail and, most importantly, what were the few key measurable elements it wished to place at the forefront of this vision? These were questions that the CDS aimed to answer. The CDS would be a strategy that was focused and realistic, but challenging. It would be clearly defined, but flexible enough to adapt to changing

5. GROWING THE REGIONAL ECONOMY: Through retaining and growing local businesses. The focus will be on responding to and engaging local businesses, aligning planning and other controls to the broader strategy, ensuring availability of suitable land for development, as well as ensuring that infrastructure repairs are dealt with timeously. 6. SERVING AS A PROVINCIAL CAPITAL: Playing a greater role in accommodating Provincial Government and ensuring the Municipality derives greater benefits from being the capital city. This will include establishing a task team to work with the Provincial Government and ensuring that city and provincial plans are aligned.

7. CREATE A LEARNING CITY AND A CITY OF LEARNING: Working together with the MIDI initiative to ensure that the city improves its position as a university town and supports and leverages existing educational initiatives. The range of educational institutions within and around the city provides a unique opportunity for Msunduzi.

8. SPATIAL EFFECTIVENESS AND JUSTICE: Increasing densities and improving mobility to address Msunduzi’s spatial inequalities, through anticipating and planning for growth, managing sprawl, and improving public transport along key corridors in the city. In each of these areas, the city has developed specific actions to be taken and over the next few months it will institutionalise these strategies and action plans, ensuring that every quarter it reports back to Council and its people on what the city is doing to achieve these strategies. It is not by coincidence that the city chose to launch the City Development Strategy at the same platform as the announcement of the State of the City Address (SOCA) 2015. Only the second of its kind in the history of the Municipality, the SOCA was held on Friday 31 July 2015 at the Royal Showgrounds. With the theme being ‘Building a Better City for Our Future’, the SOCA promised not to be a rehash of political rhetoric and nuance but, rather, a practical reflection on the strides which the Municipality has made over the past five years towards fulfilling its core mandate in terms of Section 152 of the Constitution of South Africa. In addition, the SOCA included a factual account of progress made towards targets that were set since the time when all gathered at the inaugural SOCA, which was held last year around about the same time. The focus of the address to the citizens of this city included, among others: 1. Infrastructure provision, upgrade, accessibility, maintenance and repairs 2. Economic development, investment attraction and retention, and the steps that the Municipality has taken to ensure that both local labour and local entrepreneurs benefit from the local economic development value chain

3. Service delivery matters, and ensuring that all citizens have access to equitable provision of services through mechanisms such as the recently updated indigent policy 4. Transformation of the public transport sector as we know it, as the Municipality makes steady progress towards the provision of a high quality and affordable bus rapid transit system within its municipal jurisdiction 5 Institutional transformation and revenue generation 6. Youth development programmes and interventions targeted at vulnerable groups.

KWAZULU-NATAL

Above: The City Hall, which is the largest red-brick building in the Southern Hemisphere, was destroyed by fire in 1895, but was rebuilt in 1901. It was declared a national monument in 1969.

SOCA and its related theme of ‘Building a Better City for Our Future’, was underpinned by the overall theme as outlined by His Excellency President Jacob Zuma on the day of the January 8th Statement 2015 that this is indeed ‘The Year of the Freedom Charter and Unity in Action’.

OVERVIEW

KWAZULU-NATAL

Ingwe Local Municipality is a Category B municipality located in the north-west of the Harry Gwala District Municipality. The main settlements are Creighton, Bulwer, Donnybrook, and traditional rural council areas. Ingwe Local Municipality is 1 976km2 in extent, which equates to 16.4% of the Harry Gwala District. It is bounded by the Richmond Local Municipality in the north, Kwa Sani Local Municipality in the west, Ubuhlebezwe Local Municipality in the east and uMzimkhulu Local Municipality in the south.

DEPUTY MAYOR CLLR S V ZULU

SPEAKER CLLR M W MTOLO

CHIEF WHIP CLLR S T DLAMINI

LOCAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT Biofuel Project In an initiative to create jobs, the Ingwe Municipality has facilitated a business, owned by a community trust, using forest residue and sawdust in the manufacturing of wood chips. The traditional communities of Amacala-Gwala, Memela and Vezokuhle, living in the vicinity of the plantations, were selected as the beneficiaries of the project. Over the past two years, 138 jobs have been created.

VISION

Tourism

Ingwe Municipality will provide basic, quality and affordable services to all its communities in a transparent manner and promote socioeconomic development, while protecting the environment.

Ingwe will achieve its vision and strategic development goals by strengthening its working relationship with its communities, and other municipalities, sector departments, funders of development and investors, and by promoting good governance and adhering to legislation, while encouraging innovation and creativity.

2014 marked the 10th anniversary of the Aloe Festival, which has become an iconic event in southern KwaZulu-Natal. A record number of 2 008 passengers were attracted to Creighton over the three weekends in July, with almost 1 000 on the Aloe Festival weekend. Over 400 bed nights were generated as a result of the event. The restored museum and gallery celebrates the memory of Gerard Bhengu, a son of Ingwe Municipality, who is honoured for the contribution he made to society in the form of his art. The fact that Centocow is accessible on tar roads from the R617 means that many visitors, both local and foreign, staying in Underberg visit the gallery.

SERVICE DELIVERY

SMME Support

The performance highlights of the Municipality have revolved around:

The Municipality was involved in support of community SMME projects identified via the IDP consultative process. These include cooperatives aimed at supporting agricultural production, sewing projects, candle making and leather products.

MISSION

Community Support and Development Programmes There are many community support and development programmes, including the HIV/Aids campaign; Operation Sukuma Sakhe; War Rooms; campaigns for women, the youth, disabled people, senior citizens and learners; crime and drug awareness; men’s sector; education; sport development initiatives; poverty alleviation initiatives; support for SMMEs; responses to disasters; cultural events and performing arts competitions; and development of ward committees and community-based plans. This work is carried out by the Municipality’s Special Programmes Officer and Community Development Officer and their staff.

Basic Service Delivery and Infrastructure Projects The provision of electricity connections to households and schools is one of the Municipality’s main priorities, with an installation of a total of 1 087 new connections during the 2014/15 financial year. Seven access roads were completed during the year. The Memela and Nkompolo access roads were brought up to standard by maintenance work carried out during the year. The community hall at Mpumulwane and the sportsfields at Ngwangwane and Woodhurst were completed during the year. A new, registered landfill site was established outside of the town of Creighton, and the Municipality continues to render a twice-weekly refuse removal service to the towns of Creighton, Bulwer and Donnybrook.

Mentorship Programme for Farm Workers This involves the allocation of people with a passion for agriculture to established farmers so that they can gain the skills and knowledge required to become independent and sustainable farmers.

Public Participation and Communication The year saw the inclusion of actions towards better communication, increased public awareness, and improved engagement with the public in decision-making and accountability to communities. In an effort to enhance ward participatory democracy, the Municipality is continuing to upskill the Ward Committee structures through training and involving ward committees more in municipal affairs. Through the Public Participation and IDP/PMS Unit, Ward Councillors are supported in interacting with their communities through IDP/Budget Road Shows and report back meetings.

FUTURE ACTIONS The Municipality has continued the roll-out of wall-to-wall planning schemes in order for informed decisions to be taken with regards to development and investment, through which the provision of community facilities, infrastructure and services, community development, economic development, and human settlement can happen in a sustainable manner.

Limpopo, South Africa’s northernmost province, borders onto Mozambique, Zimbabwe and Botswana. It also borders the Mpumalanga, Gauteng and North West provinces. Named after the Limpopo River, which fl ows along its northern border, it is a region of contrasts, from true Bushveld country to majestic mountains, primeval indigenous forests, unspoiled wilderness and patchworks of farmland. In the eastern region lies the northern half of the magnificent Kruger National Park. Limpopo ranks fifth in South Africa in both surface area and population, covering an area of 125 754km2 and being home to a population of 5 404 868. The capital is Polokwane (previously Pietersburg). Other major cities and towns include BelaBela (Warmbad), Lephalale (Ellisras), Makhado (Louis Trichardt), Musina (Messina), Thabazimbi and Tzaneen. Mining is the primary driver of economic activity. Limpopo is rich in mineral deposits, including platinum-group metals, iron ore, chromium, high and middlegrade coking coal, diamonds, antimony, phosphate and copper, as well as mineral reserves such as gold, emeralds, scheelite, magnetite, vermiculite, silicon and mica. The province is a typical developing area, exporting primary products and importing manufactured goods and services. The climatic conditions in the province allow for double harvesting seasons, which results in it being the largest producer of various crops in the agricultural market. Sunflowers, cotton, maize and peanuts are cultivated in the Bela-Bela—Modimolle area. Bananas, litchis, pineapples, mangoes and pawpaws, as well as a variety of nuts, are grown in the Tzaneen and Makhado areas. Extensive tea and coffee plantations create many employment opportunities in the Tzaneen area. The Bushveld is cattle country, where controlled hunting is often combined with ranching. Limpopo is divided into five district municipalities, which are further subdivided into 25 local municipalities.

AUDIT OUTCOME

province, in the northern part of South Africa, bordering Zimbabwe and Botswana. It takes its name from the Blouberg (blue mountains), a mountain range located to the west of the western end of the Soutpansberg Mountain Range, north-west of the town of Vivo. Blouberg is home to some of the most spectacular rock climbing in South Africa. It is famous for its big-wall natural climbing, with route lengths up to 350m. The vegetation ranges from subtropical savanna at the base, to alpine near the summit. Blouberg is a hot area with annual rainfall varying between 380 and 550mm. Most rainfall is experienced during the summer months. Evapotranspiration during the rainy season is very high. The area is prone to frequent drought, which has an adverse effect on the local economy. The only perennial river is the Mogalakwena River, which feeds the Glen Alpine Dam, the only source of pipeline water in the area.

OVERVIEW Area: 3 766km2 Description: Polokwane Local Municipality is located within the Capricorn District in the Limpopo province. It shares its name with the city of Polokwane (previously Pietersburg). In February 2002, the city was renamed Polokwane – a northern Sesotho word that means ‘place of safety’. It is a city with more than a century of phenomenal growth and prosperity. Polokwane Municipality accounts for 3% of the total surface area of Limpopo, however, over 10% of the population of Limpopo resides within its boundaries. The municipality serves as the economic hub of Limpopo, and has the highest population density in the Capricorn District. The municipal spatial pattern reflects that of the historic apartheid city model, characterised by segregated settlement. At the centre of the area is the Polokwane economic hub, which comprises the central business district, industrial area, and a range of social services and well-established formal urban areas servicing the more affluent residents of Polokwane. Situated on the outskirts in several clusters are less formal settlement areas, which are experiencing enormous influx from rural urban migration trends. These areas are in dire need of upgraded services and infrastructure, both social and engineering, and are struggling to cope with the informal influx of more and more people who want access to an improved quality and standard of living. Cities/Towns: Polokwane Main Economic Sectors: Community services (32.1%), finance (21.5%), wholesale and retail trade (18.3%), transport (11.7%), manufacturing (4.8%), mining (4.2%)

OVERVIEW POLITICAL & ADMINISTRATIVE MANAGEMENT

Area: 8 300km2 Description: Makhado Local Municipality is one of four local municipalities in the Vhembe District. It borders with Musina in the north, Thulamela in the east, Molemole in the west (Capricorn District) and Greater Giyani in the south (Mopani District). It was first established on 31 October 1934 as the Louis Trichardt Town Council. With the new municipal demarcation, a number of municipalities were established in 1997. However, following the Municipal Structures Act of 1998, the municipalities were merged into an NP344 Municipality that is now known as the Makhado Municipality. It is divided into four regions: Makhado (previously Louis Trichardt), Vuwani, Dzanani and Waterval.

OVERVIEW Area: 13 784km2 Description: Lephalale Local Municipality is located in the north-western part of the Waterberg District in the Limpopo province. It borders with four local municipalities: Blouberg, Modimolle, Mogalakwena and Thabazimbi. Its north-western border is also part of the international border between South Africa and Botswana. The Lephalale Municipality is the biggest municipality in the Limpopo province. The town of Lephalale (previously Ellisras) is located a mere 280km from Pretoria, and is a recognised gateway to Botswana and other Southern African countries. Lephalale Municipality is named after the local river, a tributary of the Limpopo River, which has been the source of life to the people of this area from time immemorial. Before the new dispensation, this municipality was called Ellisras; derived from the combination of surnames of two Afrikaners, Patric Ellis and Piet Erasmus, who settled in this area in the 1930s. Nestled at the spur of the Waterberg Mountains, Lephalale is a place of peace and breathtaking beauty. Highlights like the awe-inspiring D’Nyala Nature Reserve, Marakele National Park, and the spectacular Mokolo Dam and Nature Reserve underscore why Lephalale is called ‘the heartbeat of the Waterberg Bushveld’. As part of the Waterberg biosphere, the Lephalale area is richly blessed with pristine natural beauty and an abundance of fauna and flora.

Area: 11 190km2 Description: Thabazimbi Local Municipality is located within the Waterberg District Municipality in the south-western part of the Limpopo province, has Botswana as its international neighbour, and is a mere two-hour drive from Pretoria. Thabazimbi is known as ‘mountain of iron’, which is a Setswana name referring to the highly lucrative iron ore reef first discovered in the municipality in 1919. The municipality has Marakele National Park, which is a subsidiary of the National Parks Board, and in the same standard as the Kruger National Park and Mapungube. It has been mined since the 1930s, when iron and steel production started. Today, Iscor Steelworks in Pretoria still draw much of their raw material from Thabazimbi Kumba Resources (iron ore mine). Apart from iron ore, the Thabazimbi Municipality is surrounded by platinumproducing areas. Other minerals produced in the area include andalusite. Agriculture has also proven to be a strong economic sector in the municipality. Agricultural commodities produced are wheat, beans and maize. The municipality’s goals are aligned with those of the Provincial Growth and Development Strategy in Limpopo. This will ensure that the growth trajectory also addresses the objective of poverty eradication through job creation and business opportunity stimulation. With regard to public participation, Thabazimbi Municipality has made significant progress in terms of the development of the organs of participatory democracy, such as Ward Committees and IDP forums. Another positive aspect is the increasing representation of women in various structures, e.g. 50% of councillors are female.

MUNICIPAL MANAGER MS E M TUKAKGOMO

OUR VISION To build a vibrant city and be the energy hub of Africa.

OVERVIEW

LIMPOPO

Lephalale Local Municipality (LLM) is one of the fastest-growing municipalities in the country and governs a town that has the potential of becoming the future hub of power generation in South Africa. The Waterberg coalfields, which boast more than 40% of the total coal reserves of South Africa, surround Lephalale and have brought an influx of mining companies to the area. The construction of the Medupi Power Station is at an advanced stage and, with Matimba Power Station, is adding electricity to the national grid.

THE HEARTBEAT OF THE WATERBERG Nestled at the spur of the Waterberg Mountains, Lephalale is a place of peace and breathtaking beauty. Highlights like the awe-inspiring D’Nyala Nature Reserve, Marakele National Park and the spectacular Mokolo Dam and Nature Reserve underscore why Lephalale is called ‘the heartbeat of the Waterberg bushveld’. As part of the Waterberg biosphere, the Lephalale area is richly blessed with pristine natural beauty and an abundance of fauna and flora. Geological sites and rock art are a strong drawcard for the region, suggesting its links to many previous generations.

FINANCIALLY VIABLE Lephalale Municipality received an unqualified audit opinion and a SALGA award for an improved audit outcome for the 2013/2014 financial year, and is committed to working towards a clean audit. The Municipality’s cash reserves are strong enough to ensure a current ratio of 3:1, higher than the norm of 2:1.

Mpumalanga, the second-smallest province in South Africa after Gauteng, is located in the north-eastern part of the country, bordering Swaziland and Mozambique to the east. It also borders Limpopo, Gauteng, Free State and KwaZulu-Natal within South Africa. It covers an area of 76 495km2 and has a population of 4 039 939, making it the sixth most populous in the country. It is situated mainly on the high plateau grasslands of the Middleveld, which roll eastwards for hundreds of kilometres. In the north-east, it rises towards mountain peaks and terminates in an immense escarpment. In some places, this escarpment plunges hundreds of metres down to the low-lying area known as the Lowveld. Mbombela (previously Nelspruit) is the capital of the province and the administrative and business centre of the Lowveld. Other major cities and towns include eMalahleni (previously Witbank), Standerton, eMkhondo (previously Piet Retief), Malalane, Ermelo, Barberton and Sabie. The best-performing sectors in the province include mining, manufacturing and services. Tourism and agro-processing are potential growth sectors. Agriculture in Mpumalanga is characterised by a combination of commercialised farming, subsistence and livestock farming, and emerging crop farming. Crops such as subtropical fruits, nuts, citrus, cotton, tobacco, wheat, vegetables, potatoes, sunflowers and maize are produced in the region. Mpumalanga is rich in coal reserves and home to South Africa’s major coal-fired power stations. eMalahleni is the biggest coal producer in Africa and is also the site of the country’s second oil-from-coal plant after Sasolburg. Most of the manufacturing production in Mpumalanga occurs in the southern Highveld region. In the Lowveld sub-region, industries are concentrated around the manufacturing of products from agricultural and raw forestry material. Mpumalanga is divided into three district municipalities, which are further subdivided into 18 local municipalities.

municipalities that form part of the Mpumalanga province. It is comprised of five local municipalities: Mbombela, Umjindi, Bushbuckridge, Nkomazi and Thaba Chweu. Mbombela (previously Nelspruit) is the capital of Mpumalanga, situated in the Mbombela Local Municipality, which is also the home of the Mpumalanga Provincial Government and, as a result, is the most concentrated economic hub within the province. It features three border gates to both Swaziland and Mozambique (Matsamo, Komatipoort and Mananga border gates) and, therefore, movement of people from neighbouring countries to the district, and from Gauteng to either Swaziland or Mozambique, creates a catalyst for the economic life of the area. Main Economic Sectors: Community services (44.5%), trade (44%), financial and real estate (43.1%), construction (41%), transport (37.5%), agriculture (35.5%), manufacturing (19.6%), mining (6%), utilities (2.8%), electricity (2%)

OVERVIEW This municipality will be amalgamated with the Umjindi Local Municipality after the 2016 local government elections. Area: 5 394km2 Description: Mbombela Local Municipality is situated in the Mpumalanga province. The municipality came about through the amalgamation of previous local councils in December 2000. The local councils were Nelspruit Transitional Rural Council (TRC), White River TRC, White River Transitional Local Council (TLC), Hazyview TLC, and the Greater Nelspruit Area. Mbombela (previously Nelspruit) is the capital of the Mpumalanga province. Mbombela is the Siswati word for ‘a lot of people together in a small space’. The city serves as a gateway to some of the best ecoand adventure activities in Southern Africa and, with its moderate climate, becomes the preferred tourist destination all year round. Its subtropical fruits (like mangoes, avocados, oranges, lemons, litchis and bananas) are a huge drawcard for visitors, and during springtime the blossoms of orange trees can be smelt kilometres away. For shopping enthusiasts, the city offers world-class shopping malls, casinos and entertainment venues with air-conditioning systems. This creates excellent opportunities for prospective investors and businesses to establish themselves in the area. Cities/Towns: Emoyeni, Entokozweni, Hazyview, Kaapschehoop, Kabokweni, Kanyamazane, Luphisi, Matsulu, Mbombela, Mpakeni, Msogwaba, Ngodwana, Skukuza, Tekwane, White River Main Economic Sectors: Finance and business services (21.7%), manufacturing (17.8%), government services (16.4%), trade (13.4%), transport and communications (10.2%), community services (9.2%), agriculture (3.6%), construction (3.2%), mining (2.5%)

OVERVIEW

MPUMALANGA

Area: 4 882km2 Description: Mkhondo Local Municipality is a gateway to the province of Mpumalanga from KwaZulu-Natal and Swaziland. It is ideally situated halfway between the Gauteng metropolis (Johannesburg and Pretoria) and the Natal coast (Richards Bay and Durban). It forms part of the Gert Sibande District Municipality, and is the main link for both industrial and commercial transport from Gauteng to the import/export harbour at Richards Bay. It is bordered by the following local municipalities: Dr Pixley Ka Isaka Seme to the west, eDumbe to the south, and Msukaligwa and Chief Albert Luthuli to the north. Swaziland is situated to the east of the Mkhondo Local Municipality. The municipality amalgamated two former Transitional Local Councils and two Transitional Rural Councils – the historic towns of Piet Retief and Amsterdam. Piet Retief, now known as eMkhondo, is surrounded by forestry and plantations. Much of its economy originates from these sources. Three major sawmills, Mondi, Tafibra and PG Bison, are located just outside of eMkhondo. These play a crucial role in boosting a well-diversified economy, and the other components of manufacturing, personal services, real estate and tourism. Amsterdam/KwaThandeka and its rural nodes in the Mkhondo municipal area are fundamentally agricultural and have forestry support. Mondi, Sappi, TWK and Komati Land Forests are the major companies that lead the forestry industry in the area. Several scattered pockets of mining are found in the municipal area of jurisdiction. Natural conservation and tourist activities also contribute towards the socio-economic conditions of the municipality. A number of South African Heritage Sites are found within the municipality. These include the Entombe Battlefield, Rooikraal, Confidence, Kalkoenvlakte and Heyshope Dam. The Morgestond and Athole Nature Reserves and Amsterdam Conservation are two sites managed by the Mpumalanga Parks Board. Cities/Towns: Amsterdam, eMkhondo (previously Piet Retief) Main Economic Sectors: Forestry and agriculture

facilitating the establishment of cooperatives dealing with various projects like water bottling, brickmaking and welding, baking and agro-tourism. Key Investment Opportunities: Tourist and sporting activities – Entombe Battlefield (Heritage Site); Heyshop Dam, Westoe Dam, Morgenstond Dam and Jericho Dam.

ADVERTORIAL

NOTICE TO ALL THOSE WHO ARE INVOLVED IN UNLICENSED GAMBLING OPERATIONS OR PARTICIPATE IN UNLICENSED GAMBLING ACTIVITIES IN THE NORTH WEST PROVINCE The Hon. Wendy Joy Nelson, Member of the Executive Council for Finance, Economy and Enterprise Development (MEC for FEED), who is the Responsible Member for the North West Gambling Board “the Board”, which regulates the gambling industry in the North West Province, MEC WENDY JOY NELSON is concerned about the proliferation of unlicensed gambling operations and participation in illegal gambling activities in the Province. These illegal activities cause immeasurable damage to both the image of the Province, the provincial economy and society. The unlicensed gambling operations are increasing in number and continue to hoard wealth in total disregard of the laws of this country and the negative consequences of their illicit trade. Illegal gambling activities are also a foundation upon which most other types of criminal and illicit activities such as drug trafficking, prostitution, human trafficking and murder are supported, and can be a key source of funding and working capital for the criminals to fund other organized crime activities. Members of the public are encouraged to gamble only at legal sites as they would enjoy protection in terms of the law. A person taking part in unlicensed gambling operations is exposed to risks in relation to unverified integrity

and fairness of gambling games and non-adherence to responsible gambling requirements. Unlicensed gambling operations are estimated to be collecting over R500m in revenue per annum, taking away business from legitimate and law-abiding entrepreneurs and gambling operators who pay taxes and contribute to government services and infrastructure. Illegal gambling operations cost the provincial economy over R40m a year in lost gambling revenue. The MEC and the North West Gambling Board resolved to combat these illegal gambling activities, which are confirmed to be operating mostly in the areas of Rustenburg, Brits, Klerksdorp, Potchefstroom and Vryburg. To give effect to this, the Board will invoke the provisions of section 31 of the National Gambling Act, 2004 (Act No.7 of 2004), as amended “the National Gambling Act” which mandates the Board to ensure that unlicensed gambling is detected and prosecuted. Unlicensed gambling operators and those participating in these illegal gambling activities are therefore warned that, in terms of section 82 of the North West Gambling Act, 2001 (Act No. 2 of 2001), as amended, it is an offence to provide any form of gambling and/or possess any gambling equipment and/or devices without the authority of a license, as well as partaking in such activities. The North West Gambling Board in collaboration with the South African Police Service, and other stakeholders will ensure that those found participating in this illegal activity in the Province face the full might of the Law.

Members of the public who may have information regarding unlicensed gambling operations are encouraged to participate in combatting this scourge by reporting to the Board on Tel- 018 384 3215 (08h00 to 17h00) or Hotline- 0860 545 545 (anytime). Furthermore, members of the public and those interested in being licensed as gambling operators are advised to direct enquiries regarding various gambling modes available and the application process to the Chief Executive Officer, Mr Fortune Sekgaphane, by facsimile, email, hand delivery or post: Facsimile 018 384 2290, Email: ceo@nwgb.co.za, Hand delivery: North West Gambling Board, 131 University Drive, Mmabatho, or post to Private Bag X34, Mmabatho, 2735, Tel.

North West lies in the north of South Africa on the Botswana border, fringed by the Kalahari Desert in the west, Gauteng province to the east and the Free State to the south. It covers an area of 104 882km2 and has a population of 3 509 953. Much of the province consists of flat areas of scattered trees and grassland. The Vaal River flows along the southern border of the province. Mahikeng (previously Mafikeng) is the capital. The city lies near the Botswana border and forms a single urban area with its neighbouring town, Mmabatho. Potchefstroom and Klerksdorp are the biggest cities in the province. Other main towns are Brits, Rustenburg, Klerksdorp and Lichtenburg. Most economic activity is concentrated in the southern region between Potchefstroom and Klerksdorp, as well as Rustenburg and the eastern region. Mining is the major contributor to the North West economy and represents almost a quarter of South Africa’s mining industry as a whole. The Rustenburg and Brits districts produce more platinum than any other single area in the world. North West also produces a quarter of South Africa’s gold, as well as granite, marble, fluorspar and diamonds. North West has a number of major tourist attractions, including the internationally famous Sun City, the Pilanesberg National Park, the Madikwe Game Reserve and the Rustenburg Nature Reserve. North West is well known for cattle farming, while the areas around Rustenburg and Brits are fertile, mixed-crop farming land. Maize and sunflowers are the most important crops, and the province is the major producer of white maize in the country. North West is divided into four district municipalities, which are further subdivided into 19 local municipalities.

Mayor: Mr Kgotso Khumalo Other Members of Council: Barei Segotso (Speaker), Thabo Mosiane

OVERVIEW This municipality will be amalgamated with the Ventersdorp Local Municipality after the 2016 local government elections. Area: 2 674km2 Description: Tlokwe City Council Local Municipality is situated on the N12 route that connects Johannesburg and Cape Town via the city of Kimberley. The main railway route from Gauteng to the Northern and Western Cape also runs through the municipality’s main city, Potchefstroom. The City is 145km south-east of OR Tambo International Airport but has its own airfield, which can accommodate bigger aircraft and was formerly a military air base. Potchefstroom is thus a very accessible city that welcomes business, trade and manufacturing. With the well-developed infrastructure of Potchefstroom, it has been able to sustain a positive economic growth rate throughout the transition period in South Africa and, together with its abundance of water and electricity, holds great opportunities for future growth. Potchefstroom is situated in the North West province and is one of the four municipalities of the Dr Kenneth Kaunda District Municipality. Gold mining is the dominant economic activity in the district, with Potchefstroom and Ventersdorp being the only exceptions. While Ventersdorp to the north-west of Potchefstroom focuses on agricultural activity, Potchefstroom’s economic activity is driven by services and manufacturing. A big role-player in the provision of services in Potchefstroom is the world-class North-West University, which has its main campus in Potchefstroom. Regarding manufacturing, Potchefstroom’s industrial zone has many companies, focusing mainly on the industries of steel, food and chemicals, with big entities such as King Korn, Kynoch, Naschem and the Soya Protein Process (SPP) company. This makes Potchefstroom a very important role-player in the economy of the North West province as provision here is made for local, national and international markets. Within the city centre, the infrastructure of Potchefstroom supports roughly 600 businesses. The addition of the newly built Mooirivier Mall has expanded commercial options for many businesses. Furthermore, a wide range of medical practices, together with other service-related businesses, are readily available all around the city. Cities/Towns: Potchefstroom Main Economic Sectors: Community (43%), trade (13%), finance (13%), agriculture (10%), manufacturing (7%), transport (6%), mining (5%)

municipality in the Dr Ruth Segomotsi Mompati District Municipality (previously Bophirima District Municipality) in the North West province. The municipality is one of six local municipalities in the district, and is a Category B municipality with a collective system. The municipal area is predominantly rural and contains 106 widely scattered villages. Greater Taung has a rich heritage that visitors can explore. The area also has strong agricultural significance in the South African economy. The Taung Skull Heritage Route is a fascinating journey of discovery. The route follows an area in which early man once lived, and it has many sites that show us the existence and evolution of our ancient ancestors. Spanning more than 45km, the route includes several natural wonders, such as Thomeng (an unusual limestone waterfall) and Blue Pools (a collection of rock pools, streams and caves in a valley). It was at the limestone diggings on this route, at the old Buxton quarry, that the lime-encrusted skull of a child was found in 1924. The site is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and a monument has been put in place to mark the discovery. Cities/Towns: Pudimoe, Reivilo, Taung

Municipality) is located in Mahikeng (previously Mafikeng), the capital city of the North West province, and is the seat of the Provincial Legislature and the majority of the National State Departments regional offices. Mahikeng Local Municipality was brought about by the new Local Government transformation in South Africa. It is a Category B municipality established in terms of section 12 of the Municipal Structures Act (MSA). Nestled next to the Botswana border, Mahikeng is just a threehour drive from Johannesburg and about 294km from Pretoria. Its rich and diverse history dates back to 1852, when the town was founded, and 1899 to 1902 during the Anglo-Boer War, the Mafikeng Siege. Its town is home to the Mahikeng Museum, with its antique steel ceiling, old town clock, Sol Plaatje’s history, and display of rock species. The municipality is considerably bigger than the other four local municipalities located within the area of jurisdiction of the Ngaka Modiri Molema District Municipality. The neighbouring local municipalities that border the Mahikeng Local Municipality are: Ramotsere Moiloa Local Municipality (previously Zeerust Local Municipality), Tswaing Local Municipality, Ditsobotla Local Municipality and Ratlou Local Municipality (previously Setla-Kgobi Local Municipality). The Mahikeng Airport, situated 5km west of the Mmabatho CBD, boasts a landing strip of 4.6km, one of the longest runways in the world.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION*

situated in the Ngaka Modiri Molema Distrct Municipality in the North West province. It is one of the five local municipalities in this district. Tswaing Local Municipality provides all the basic services in its area of jurisdiction except water and sanitation, which are provided by the Ngaka Modiri Molema Distrct Municipality. The data from Global Insight Regional Explorer 593 indicates that there has been tremendous improvement in the allocation of services to the communities in the Tswaing Local Municipality, especially housing, water, electricity and sanitation. Despite these positive results, the municipality still faces challenges with regards to backlogs in the provision of water, electricity, sanitation, roads and street lighting. The main reason for this is the increase in population in the past 10 years, partly due to evictions of people in the surrounding farms and partly because of the natural growth of the population.

MAYOR CLLR BOITUMELO PINKY MOLOI

SPEAKER CLLR M ZEPHE

MUNICIPAL MANAGER MS MATLAKALA MATTHEWS

INTRODUCTION

NORTH WEST

The Dr Kenneth Kaunda District Municipality (DRKKDM) consists of four local municipalities, namely City of Matlosana, Tlokwe City Council, Maquassi Hills and Ventersdorp. The statistical information is the combination of the Census 2011, the 2007 Community Survey by Statistics South Africa, the Quantec Research of 2008, the Dr Kenneth Kaunda District Municipality Spatial Development Framework of 2011, and other analyses described hereunder. The analyses are based upon demarcation boundaries as at 2010, provided by StatsSA.

DRKKDM TOTAL POPULATION The population of the Dr Kenneth Kaunda District is 695 933, increased from 599 670 in 2001. The population is unevenly distributed among the four local municipalities (LMs) and the average annual growth rate of the District is 1.49%. The majority of the population resides within the City of Matlosana LM (57.29%) and the Tlokwe City Council LM (23.39%), followed by Maquassi Hills (11.18%) and Ventersdorp (8.15%). The number of wards per local municipality is City of Matlosana (35), Tlokwe City Council (26), Maquassi Hills (11) and Ventersdorp (6), with a total of 78 in the District as at 2 September 2010. The number of households within the District was estimated at 208 047 during 2011.

STRATEGIC GOALS AND OBJECTIVES The following goals are in support of the 5-year strategic agenda for local government and in cognisance of the strategic imperatives facing the District: • promote physical infrastructure development and services • promote socio-economic development • provide environmental health services • ensure disaster risk management • promote integrated transport services • promote community safety • ensure internal municipal excellence.

ACCESS TO BASIC SERVICES The majority of households in the District (98.65%) have access to piped water either inside the dwelling, inside the yard or from an access point outside the yard. More than 75% have access to refuse removal at least once a week, while almost 85% have sanitation that is connected to a formal sewage system. Almost 80% of the population stay in formal dwellings and more than 80% have access to one or another form of electricity access, with lighting in dwellings at about 90%.

2014/15 HIGHLIGHTS Mayoral Student Assistance Fund The Office of the Executive Mayor has spent over R6,7 million towards the Mayoral Student Assistance Fund for the 2014/15

financial year. The amount covers 565 deserving applicants, who are unable to afford tertiary education due to their socioeconomic statuses.

Environmental Health Services Ongoing environmental awareness campaigns focus on areas including food and water safety, environmental surveys assisting in the control of waste management, and enforcement of municipal health by-laws. This has seen the department embarking on a large-scale programme aimed at eradicating illegal dumping. Identified problematic hotspots include portions of Maquassi Hills (20), City of Matlosana (74), Tlokwe City Council (43) and Ventersdorp (16). The department has set aside funds to provide roll-on and compactor dump trucks for waste collection and transportation in the smaller local municipalities of Ventersdorp and Maquassi Hills respectively.

Infrastructure Development The department has given priority to maintenance and provision of sanitation, roads and electricity for farmsteads, and rural and semi-urban areas. This includes the upgrade of an outfall sewer in Kgakala and sewer lines in Lebaleng, as well as the construction of a new pump station in Kgakala. Completion is at 85%, owing to the outstanding work in household connections to the pump station. The District has also constructed over 95 VIP toilets in the City of Matlosana and Ventersdorp Municipalities. City of Matlosana accounts for 25 units, in Dominionville, and Ventersdorp accounts for 70 units, shared between Boikhutsong (35) and Welgevonden (35). Ventersdorp has also benefitted, with the construction of a solid waste landfill site that is 90% complete. Matlwang Village in Tlokwe City Council now has a paved access road from the N12 National Road, which is 95% complete. Electricity projects completed include the maintenance of 31 high-mast lights in townships. Kanana Township in City of Matlosana accounts for 14 repairs, while both Tswelelang and Lebaleng Townships in Maquassi Hills account for 17 repairs.

Disaster Risk Management The department continues to empower both the Maquassi Hills and Ventersdorp Local Municipalities on matters related to disaster management. This is notable owing to support through provision of advanced technology equipment, community disaster surveys and awareness programmes. Veldfire protection associations have also benefitted, following the provision of 110 fire skid units. In addition, three state-of-the-art firefighting trucks have been acquired. The District has launched its 24-hour operational call centre at the District Disaster Management Centre in Klerksdorp. Communities are encouraged to call the toll-free number: 0800 000 462.

NATIONAL GRANT EXPENDITURE: INCENTIVE BONUSES AND AWARDS The National Treasury is a key partner in service delivery without which it would be impossible for Naledi Local Municipality to carry out the massive infrastructure development it has implemented. In fact, 60% of the Municipality’s source of revenue comes from the National Treasury. Key among these grants are the Municipal Infrastructure Grant (MIG) and Integrated National Electrification Programme (INEP). The MIG allocation is not nearly enough to build the infrastructure needed for basic services. With this in mind, the Municipality has ensured over the last couple of years that this grant is used to derive maximum impact, with the focus on priorities identified in the needs analysis phase of the IDP, wherein communities were consulted extensively. To this end, the Municipality has achieved 100% expenditure of the MIG. In recognition of this achievement, the National Department of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs, and National Treasury gave the Municipality an incentive bonus by allocating an additional R7m, which was used to build seven streets in Huhudi. This feat was repeated again in the 2014/15 financial year and this time the incentive bonus was increased to R14m. This grant will be used to build 11 more streets in Huhudi. The provincial government awarded Naledi positions 1 and 2 in the expenditure of the Project Management Unit (PMU) and efficiency of the PMU respectively. The Extended Public Works Programme, funded by the Department of Public Works and Naledi Local Municipality, and the Community Work Programme, funded by the Department of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs, are the pillars of the service delivery workforce. Without these workers, there would be a huge crisis in terms of the shortage of staff to deliver services such as road maintenance repairs; maintenance of parks; cleaning of the

environment; refuse removal; digging of graves and maintenance of cemeteries, and cleaning of offices and public amenities. There are 404 Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP) beneficiaries and 714 Community Work Programme (CWP) beneficiaries in the Municipality who deliver these essential services. Due to their commitment and hard work, some EPWP beneficiaries have graduated from being EPWP to being contract workers, the socalled capital workers. This group of temporary workers is the reason things have improved and we count on them to strive for and maintain the high standard of service. They do this without the job security and benefits that come with being employed permanently. After years of battling to revive the project, which was to revamp Hayes Park, the Municipality managed to get the Department of Public Works and the Independent Development Trust (IDT) to honour their commitment to implement this project. New public toilets have been constructed, old toilets revamped, pathways paved, braai facilities built, lights installed, and grass and flowers planted. As a safety measure against vandalism, theft and illegal use of the park, a fence has been constructed and security has been appointed for access control. Part of the Municipality’s function is to develop sports and recreation facilities. To this end, the Municipality embarked on a project to revamp both the Huhudi and Colridge sports facilities. The project has been completed, transforming both facilities with new surfaced athletic tracks, artificial turfs for soccer pitches, revamped dressing rooms, new caretakers’ houses, and covering walls. The hope is that these facilities will have the youth engaged in different sporting codes ranging from athletics to football, netball, bodybuilding, boxing, basketball and so on. Ultimately, the Municipality must be able to produce professional sports stars in the class and calibre of Fabian McCarthy, Edwin Setae, Naeem Johnson, Thapelo Yawa, Rhee Mereekae, Blessing Mothusi and General Sibidla. The Municipality hopes to involve these legends in order to motivate the youth to take part in sports and emulate their success.

The vast and arid Northern Cape is the largest province in South Africa, taking up nearly a third of the country’s land area. It covers an area of 372 889km2 and has a population of 1 145 861, the least populous of South Africa’s provinces. It is bordered by Namibia and Botswana to the north, and also by the North West, Free State, Eastern Cape and Western Cape provinces. The cold Atlantic Ocean forms the province’s western boundary. The capital city is Kimberley. Other important towns are Upington, centre of the karakul sheep and dried-fruit industries, and the most northerly winemaking region of South Africa; Springbok, which is in the heart of the Namaqualand spring-flower country; and Kuruman and De Aar, the location of the second most important junction of South Africa’s railway network. Sutherland is host to the southern hemisphere’s largest astronomical observatory, the multinational sponsored Southern African Large Telescope. The Northern Cape is rich in minerals. Alluvial diamonds are extracted from the beaches and the sea between Alexander Bay and Port Nolloth. The Sishen Mine near Kathu is the biggest source of iron ore in South Africa, while the copper mine at Okiep is one of the oldest mines in the country. Copper is also mined at Springbok and Aggeneys. The province is rich in asbestos, manganese, fluorspar, semi-precious stones and marble. The province has fertile agricultural land in the Orange River Valley, especially at Upington, Kakamas and Keimoes, where grapes and fruit are intensively cultivated. The interior Karoo relies on sheep farming, while the karakul-pelt industry is one of the most important in the Gordonia district of Upington. Wheat, fruit, peanuts, maize and cotton are produced at the Vaalharts Irrigation Scheme near Warrenton. The Northern Cape is divided into five district municipalities and further subdivided into 27 local municipalities.

established in 2001 in accordance with the demarcation process. The municipality spans three topographic zones. The area stretches from the sandy coastal lowlands (Sandveld) to the mountainous central Kamiesberg escarpment (Hardveld), and to the eastern plateau of Bushmanland. There are no perennial rivers in the area. Water is obtained from subterranean sources. Some of the water is pumped up by windmills, but most of the water to the communal areas comes from natural springs. Many of these springs are semi-perennial and the salt content of the water can vary from year to year, causing problems. Four main types of vegetation are found in the area: Mountain Renosterveld, Succulent Karoo, False Succulent Karoo and Namaqualand Broken Veld. However, overall plant life is in a deteriorating state and non-edible, undesirable and poisonous vegetation is taking over.

AUDIT OUTCOME

OVERVIEW Area: 5 527km Description: Renosterberg Local Municipality is located in the Pixley 2

CAPITAL EXPENDITURE

Ka Seme District of the Northern Cape, known as the Karoo region. It is regarded as one of the most beautiful regions in the province. It enjoys warm winter days, cool evening temperatures and rainfall during the winter season. The summers are hot to very hot and dry. Petrusville is a typical upper Karoo semi-desert suburb with flat hilltops. The region is also rich with history and culture. The Dutch Reformed Church Museum exhibits century-old clothing and a horsedrawn hooded cart. The Pillar Fountain was erected to honour King Edward VII. Most of the original town dwellings are simple structures with a prominent, covered veranda as protection against the sun. The more elaborate homes have traces of Victorian style, but still maintain a Karoo-like integrity. In the Karoo Battlefields, the bitter conflict brought about by the Anglo-Boer War (1899-1902) has left its mark in world history. The best-marked and most accessible sights form part of the N12 Battlefields Route, which links the Karoo to the Diamond Fields. National Monuments include the old prison museum, the magistrate’s offices, the Reformed Church, and Teichhouse. Vanderkloof Dam attracts tourists for angling and water-related sports. Cities/Towns: Petrusville, Philipstown, Van der Kloof

OVERVIEW Area: 14 725km2 Description: Siyathemba Local Municipality is situated within the Pixley Ka Seme District Municipality of the Northern Cape province. The municipality was established as a result of the Local Government Municipal Structures Act of 1998 on 22 September 2000. Initially it was established as ‘Primanday’, which was a combination of the names Prieska, Marydale and Niekerkshoop. However, this was not an acceptable solution and on the 25th June 2001, as a result of a Council decision and Provincial Government notice 22/2001, became Siyathemba. The meaning of Siyathemba is ‘we hope’. Prieska was originally named Prieschap, a Koranna word meaning ‘place of the lost she-goat’, and used to be a fording place for travellers over the Orange River. Known to the locals as ‘the gem of the Northern Cape’, Prieska is the seat of the municipality and is located on the hills of the Doring Mountains on the southern banks of the Orange River. Prieska’s infrastructure is impressive – it has Eskom power; an abundant water supply from the Orange River, with the Gariep and the Vanderkloof Dams on the upstream side of the river; easy access to the main railway line to Namibia; good tarred road linkage with Kimberley,

FINANCIAL INFORMATION*

Ka Seme District Municipality in the Northern Cape province. Colesberg is a town located on the main road from Cape Town to Johannesburg. In a sheep-farming area spread over 500 000 hectares, greater Colesberg breeds many of the country’s top merinos. It is also renowned for producing high-quality racehorses and many stud farms, including one owned by legendary golfer, Gary Player. Towerberg or Coleskop is a prominent hill near the town and a landmark easily seen from a distance by travellers. Colesberg saw a large number of battles and skirmishes during the second Anglo-Boer War and the Colesberg Garden of Remembrance is located just outside the town. The town boasts many buildings that were built in a blend of Cape Dutch and Georgian architecture, with ceilings of reed and yellowwood timbers, and others that display a range of designs reflecting the changes of 19th century building. Originally, plots were pegged out and sold on the site of the town to fund the building of the Dutch Reformed Church. Noupoort is a town in the eastern Karoo region that principally revolved around the railways and is still used as a traction changeover facility from diesel to electric locomotives on the NoupoortBloemfontein line. It links up with the electric line to De Aar, part of the main artery for iron ore and manganese exports from the Northern Cape through Port Elizabeth Harbour on the south coast.

METRO MUNICIPALITY

Khoisan people, who were also the first permanent inhabitants of South Africa. The San, who lived a nomadic life, migrated through the area. !Kheis Municipality was established from the former Groblershoop Municipality, from settlements that were previously part of the ZF Mgcawu and Karoo District Municipalities. These municipalities administrated these settlements and provided them with services up until the demarcation in November 2000. From December 2000, !Kheis Municipality took over services and personnel, and total service provision took place from 1 July 2001. The existing roads in the !Kheis municipal area are mainly gravel. The main road (N10) from Upington to Groblershoop is a tar road. Groblershoop is also connected by the N8 to Griekwastad and by the N10 to Marydale.

Due to the climate of the area, there is huge potential to utilise solar energy more widely, especially in the remote areas of the district. The Orange River stretches through the area, from the south-east to the north-west. The presence of perennial river water contributes to the establishment of table grapes, which are marketed and exported to Western Europe.

north-eastern part of the Northern Cape province, and falls within the boundaries of the ZF Mgcawu District (previously Siyanda District). The nearest business centre is Kimberley, which is about 200km away. Three main traffic routes provide access to other cities, namely Johannesburg via Kuruman, and the Kalahari and Cape Town via Kimberley. The rest of the Tsantsabane Municipality area comprises Boichoko, Postdene, New Town, Stasie, Groen Water, Skyfontein, Jean Heaven, Marenane (the newly established settlement brought about by the land redistribution), and the well-known Lohatlha Army Battle School. Economically, Tsantsabane is known for being rich in minerals, and for its mining, agriculture, manufacturing and farming sectors. Tsantsabane has reinvented itself over the years as one of the leading investment hot spots in the Northern Cape. The construction of the Anglo American Kumba Iron Ore’s Kolomela Mine has brought an implosion of development to the area. Cities/Towns: Beeshoek, Postmasburg Main Economic Sectors: Mining

The Western Cape is located on the southern tip of the African continent between the Indian and Atlantic Oceans. It is bordered by the Northern Cape and Eastern Cape provinces. The Western Cape’s natural beauty makes the province one of the world’s greatest tourist attractions. The region is topographically and climatically diverse. It has a temperate southern coastline fringed with mountains. To the north, it stretches deep into the Karoo plateau, while the west coast is extremely dry. It covers an area of 129 462km2 and has a population of approximately 5 822 734. It is the fourth-largest province in South Africa by surface area and also ranks fourth largest in population. The capital is Cape Town. Other major cities and towns include George, Knysna, Paarl, Swellendam, Oudtshoorn, Stellenbosch, Worcester, Mossel Bay and Strand. The Western Cape is rich in agriculture and fisheries. The climate of the peninsula and the mountainous region beyond it is ideal for grape cultivation, with a number of vineyards producing excellent wines. Other fruit and vegetables are also grown here, and wheat is an important crop to the north and east of Cape Town. Fishing is the most important industry along the west coast and sheep farming is the mainstay of the Karoo. The province has a well-established industrial and business base, and the lowest unemployment rate in the country. Sectors such as finance, real estate, ICT, retail and tourism have shown substantial growth and are the main contributors to the regional economy. Many of South Africa’s major insurance companies and banks are based in the Western Cape. The majority of the country’s petroleum companies and the largest segment of the printing and publishing industry are located in Cape Town. The Western Cape is divided into one metropolitan municipality (City of Cape Town Metropolitan Municipality) and five district municipalities, which are further subdivided into 24 local municipalities.

Province. The Cape Winelands District Municipality (CWDM) is situated next to the Cape Metropolitan area and was formerly known as ‘Boland District Municipality’. CWDM is a landlocked area inbetween the West Coast and Overberg coastal districts. The District includes five local municipalities, namely: Drakenstein, Stellenbosch, Witzenberg, Breede Valley and Langeberg (formerly known as Breede River/Winelands). The area is one of the ‘pearls’ of South Africa’s rural and smalltown subregions, but disparate with a relatively high and diverse level of development. It’s a superb wine-producing area, and indeed the best known in South Africa. The magnificent mountain ranges around Stellenbosch and Franschhoek provide ideal microclimates for the vines. Main Economic Sectors: Finance and business services (23.9%), manufacturing (19.6%), wholesale and retail trade (15.2%), agriculture, forestry and fishing (13.1%), transport and communication (9%), construction (4.5%)

MANAGING TECHNOLOGY-BASED ASSET RISK The continuously changing technological environment, converging technologies and the increasing business requirements for information availability create financial demands in terms of the acquisition process and supply chain management. Outright purchases may require a substantial outlay of valuable capital reserves, which could be selectively utilised for non-changing assets that appreciate the balance sheet. Standard finance lease and asset purchase facilities are recorded in the balance sheet as financial debt, which may unncecessarily affect existing credit facility limits that may be optimally utilised

for business growth or investment purposes. The Sizwe Rental Solution, on the other hand, can be positioned as an operating expense, allowing predictable operating payments. We offer the Sizwe Rental solution for our clients’ benefit without the inherent costs and risks associated with ownership. As opposed to credit providers, who are primarily concerned with the assessment and management of a client’s credit risk, the Sizwe Rental Solution is a true rental service with the core competency of managing technology-based asset risk through the full rental with Sizwe.

ADVANTAGES OF THE SIZWE FINANCE OPTION ▲

▲

▲ ▲▲

▲

▲ ▲ Sizwe.indd 2

The risk of technology obsolescence is minimised and/or eliminated. The cost of ownership and disposal is avoided. Regular, fixed payments for all assets are made. Your assets are billed off balance sheet as an operating expense. Your contract details are available 24 hours a day via the Internet. Cost centres can be billed separately for “pay-for-use.”

At the end of the agreement, you have the option of returning the item to us, replacing it, or extending the agreement further. Easy upgrade options are available to add additional equipment to the contract (as a schedule to the Master Rental Agreement). Single accountability includes the hardware, associated software and services (OEM support fees and service execution).

Beaufort West is the oldest municipality in South Africa. The new district was proclaimed on 27 November 1818. The then governor of the Cape, Lord Charles Somerset, named the town and district ‘Beaufort’ in honour of his father, the 5th Duke of Beaufort. To avoid confusion with Fort Beaufort and Port Beaufort, the name ‘Beaufort’ was changed to Beaufort West in the 1860s. In December 1994, the former black township Kwa-Mandlenkosi was amalgamated with Beaufort West Municipality. In December 2000, the rural towns of Merweville and Nelspoort were also incorporated as part of the Beaufort West Municipality.

Many early officials and explorers, such as Barrow, Lichtenstein, De Mist and Swellengrebel, wrote of the people they met in what was later to become the district of Laingsburg.

town, only 280km from Cape Town. The town lies in a geologically fascinating area, steeped in history and tradition. It is a worthwhile and hospitable stop on the busy N1 highway through the Great Karoo. It dates back to the mid-1700s. In those years, farmers along the banks of the Buffels River offered hospitality to adventurers brave enough to cross the mountains and venture out onto the arid plains of the Great Karoo. In exchange for news of Cape Town and the civilized world, as well as gossip garnered from other farms along the way, these isolated farmers of the interior offered accommodation, sustenance and fodder.

Langeberg Mountains, with its boundaries stretching along the southern Cape coast from the Breede River in the west to Gouritsmond in the east. The N2 National Road forms the main transportation conduit across the municipality. Hessequa has a moderate climate. Rainfall occurs predominantly in winter and reaches totals of 300mm inland to 1 000mm on the coast. The Little Karoo in the rain shadow of the Langeberg is the driest region. Agricultural activities are largely determined by the local rainfall pattern. Most of the basal geology in Hessequa has been influenced by the Cape Fold Belt, which has caused the east-west heading mountains generally comprising hard quartzite sandstone and thin shale bands of the Table Mountain Group. Hessequa’s vegetation falls within the Cape Floral Kingdom, which is characterised by its exceptional richness in plant species. More than 8 700 species are known to occur, of which two thirds are endemic. About 75% of all plants in the South African Red Data Book are found in the Cape Floral Kingdom. Of these species, about 1 700 are threatened with extinction. The major biomes occurring within Hessequa may be divided into nine major vegetation groups.

OVERVIEW

WESTERN CAPE

Area: 4 758km2 Description: Kannaland Local Municipality is classified as a Category B municipality and is responsible for basic service provision to the towns of Calitzdorp, Ladismith, Vanwyksdorp and Zoar, as well as the surrounding farming communities. Kannaland is situated about 340km north-east of Cape Town along the famous tourism Route 62. It is linked by tarred main roads to all other major centres, such as Oudtshoorn (100km), Montagu (139km), George (160km), Mossel Bay (185km) and Port Elizabeth (420km). Both the administrative and legislative seats of Kannaland Municipality are located in Ladismith, with satellite offices in Calitzdorp, Vanwyksdorp and Zoar. The Kannaland municipal area lies huddled between two mountain ranges, the Swartberge and Anysberg. An impressive mountain peak called Towerkop (2 198m) looms above Ladismith. Another impressive site is Elandsberg (2 128m). Halfway up Elandsberg is a famous landmark, sometimes referred to as Ladismith’s extra star in the galaxy: Stanley’s Light (1 500m). The municipality has the smallest population in the Eden District, and also has the smallest economy in the region. Kannaland’s climate is ideal for the production of apricots, peaches, plums, nectarines and grapes. The well-known Parmalat and Ladismith dairy products come from the area. The quaint little haven of Calitzdorp is known as the port-wine capitol of South Africa by virtue of the top quality wines, produced mainly by Boplaas, De Krans, Axehill and Calitzdorp wine cellars. A wide variety of scenic routes criss-cross the area. Kannaland has its own individual building style, which makes it unique. For example, the so-called Ladismith Style is a simplified Georgian design and dates from the 1830s. Kannaland is an integral part of the Eden District, along with six other municipalities, namely Hessequa, Mossel Bay, George, Oudtshoorn, Knysna and Bitou. The Kannaland municipal area shares its borders with the Central Karoo District Municipality to the north and Cape Winelands District in the east. Cities/Towns: Calitzdorp, Ladismith, Vanwyksdorp, Zoar Main Economic Sectors: Agriculture (26.8%), manufacturing (20.4%), community and personal services (18.4%), finance and business (11%), wholesale, retail and trade (9.4%), construction (6.20%), electricity and water (4.70%), transport and communication (3%)

OVERVIEW Area: 3 537km2 Description: Oudtshoorn Local Municipality lies within the boundaries of the Eden District Municipality in the Western Cape province. Since 5 December 2000, the Oudtshoorn municipal area has included the larger settlements of Oudtshoorn, Dysselsdorp and De Rust, and the smaller rural settlements of Volmoed, Schoemanshoek, Spieskamp, Vlakteplaas, Grootkraal, De Hoop and Matjiesrivier. The Greater Oudtshoorn area is nestled at the foot of the Swartberg Mountains in the heart of the Little Karoo region in the Western Cape. It is defined as a semi-desert area with a unique and sensitive natural environment. It was once the indigenous home of the Khoisan people, and so there are many rock paintings to be found. The municipality’s development potential recognises the impact of being home to the world’s largest ostrich population, which is a key component of their agricultural industry. The discovery of the Cango Caves and continual allure of unique natural heritage has drawn people to this region. Oudtshoorn serves as a regional centre for the surrounding agricultural area. The natural environment of the area creates a natural hospitality towards the tourism industry, and a related boom in accommodation. Oudtshoorn is a centre of regional cultural, sport and art activities, and has, since 1994, been host to the nationally famous Klein Karoo Nasionale Kuntefees (KKNK), an arts festival held in March/April every year. A total of 411 temporary job opportunities were created directly by the ABSA KKNK, of which 76% were filled by black employees. The total economic impact of the ABSA KKNK is estimated at about R110 million, which makes the festival a major contributor to the economy in Oudtshoorn. A joint strategy was developed through the Greater Oudtshoorn Vision 2030 process to ensure both the broader benefaction of local communities and the sustainability of the festival. Oudtshoorn’s relatively higher ‘development potential’ is directly linked to its geographic location on main transport routes, natural resource base, human resources, institutional centre function, and commercial services. Recent studies of Oudtshoorn growth potential identified it as one of 14 important ‘leader towns’ in the Western Cape province. Cities/Towns: De Rust, Dysselsdorp, Oudtshoorn Main Economic Sectors: Agriculture, forestry and fishing (17.3%), manufacturing (12.4%), insurance (11.7%), finance (11.7%), construction (3%)

remain a challenge. Strategic partnerships have become increasingly important, as illustrated by council’s 100% expenditure on MIG projects and active participation in EPWP projects. Environmental issues have become an important factor for the municipality to consider, especially with the effects of global warming and climate change. The Cape Agulhas Municipality is endeavouring to integrate the effects and consequences of global warming and climate change into the general planning of service delivery, as can be seen in the municipality’s awarding of a waste to energy bioproject to Ark Industries. The municipality has created adequate capacity to deliver in critical departments such as economic development, human settlements and human development. Good governance has always been a priority for the council and the establishment of a Risk Management Unit, an Internal Audit Unit, a Municipal Public Accounts Committee, as well as more than 13 years of unqualified audit reports, is a testimony to this.

OVERVIEW Area: 3 467km2 Description: Cape Agulhas Local Municipality consists of five wards. A large percentage of the population falls within the economically active population (aged 15-65), but the unemployment rate in Cape Agulhas is still relatively high. Though regarded as one of the best-performing local governments when it comes to housing delivery, the housing backlogs remain a challenge. The municipality strives to improve basic services with limited resources, however, the upgrading and maintenance of basic services

Theewaterskloof Municipality is the gateway to the Overberg and is surrounded by unique natural assets such as the Theewaterskloof Dam, Kogelberg Biosphere, illustrious vineyards, crop and fruit fields, fynbos, wild flowers and blue cranes. With its Local Economic Development Strategy (LED strategy), the municipality is constantly driving local economic development in primary economic sectors such as agriculture, tourism, agricultural product processing, and industries. Despite a relatively poor community and a narrow capacity for tax and income generation, the municipality is constantly improving infrastructures for service and product delivery. The municipality’s Integrated Development Programme was developed in partnership with local business, communities and individuals. The municipality was the first to implement Service Level Agreements in all its towns to narrow the gap between community services needs and municipal service delivery abilities. The municipality created capacities for holistic and quality developments, i.e. sewerage removal, quality water, housing, communication, waste removal and infrastructural maintenance. In addition, the municipality participated in processes that led to a peaceful and safe environment where the welfare of everyone, and especially that of women and children, is highly valued and pursued. The municipality has a successful town management model that ensures that local government and democracy are extended to the people. Cities/Towns: Bot River, Caledon/Myddleton, Genadendal, Grabouw, Greyton, Riviersonderend, Theewaterskloof, Villiersdorp Main Economic Sectors: Finance, insurance, real estate and business services (30.1%), agriculture, forestry and fishing (21.3%), manufacturing (15.4%), wholesale and retail trade, catering and accommodation (8.8%), general government (7.7%), construction (6%), transport, storage and communication (5.8%), community, social and personal services (3.4%)

OVERVIEW Area: 8 007km2 Description: Cederberg Local Municipality is located along the upper west coast of the Western Cape province, approximately 200km from Cape Town. The municipal area is bordered by the spectacular Cederberg Mountains in the east and the Atlantic Ocean in the west. The main access road, the N7, is a vital economic corridor linking the economies of the Western Cape, Northern Cape and Namibia. Due to its scenic natural beauty, ecotourism is considered a major future economic growth sector. Politically, it is the only municipality in the west coast region that is controlled by the African National Congress. It is also strategically located on the Cape-Namibia Corridor, and the N7 National Road links it with the Northern Cape province. If this corridor was identified for future infrastructure upgrades and investments, it would be of paramount importance to ensure that the very basic infrastructure is in place to facilitate future development, whilst simultaneously planning for future growth.

The Handbook provides a comprehensive directory of all municipalities, including contact details and office bearers, geographic, demographic and economic overviews, as well as financial, employment, service delivery and other performance-related information.
