PART A Strategic Overview 3

DRDLR has entered in the 5th year under the current Administration. It has set the vision of creating vibrant, equitable and sustainable rural communities. Positive strides have been made in addressing the triple challenges facing our country namely: poverty, unemployment and inequality through Comprehensive Rural Development Programme (CRDP) & Land Reform programmes. 4

Strategic Overview The strategic thrust underlying land reform is that it should be carried out with minimal or no disruption to food security. Government views the National Development Plan as its developmental framework and the New Growth Path as its strategy. The programmes of the department are aligned to the NDP through the Medium-Term Strategic Framework (MTSF). 5

PART B Pre-determined Objectives Performance Overview 6

Program 1: Administration Reduced funded vacancy rate to 10% Despite not achieving the target, critical positions in the following strategic positions were filled: 42 Senior Management posts Chief Land Claims commissioner Deputy Director General for Rural Infrastructure Development Deputy Director General for land Reform and Administration 7

Program 1: Administration Cont.. 68% of audit management action plans were implemented. Of the 50% organisational renewal plan targeted, 47% were implemented and the slight variance is attributed to removal of two deliverable under the renewal strategy, viz: communication Strategy & Supply chain policies 8

Program 1: Administration Cont.. Despite not achieving the target of 10 policies submitted to cabinet, the department has recorded the following milestones: Land Management Commission Policy was approved in Land March Policy on land Owned by Foreign Nationals (PLOF) was referred back for further consultation. Three policies were approved internally, these are: the Rural Development Policy Framework (RDPF), Land Tenure Security Policy for Commercial Farming Areas and the Restitution Policy. 9

Program 1: Administration Cont.. The variance on the submission of targeted policies to Cabinet is attributed to the prioritisation of participatory consultation processes and the necessary intensive research undertaken. 10

Program 1: Administration Cont.. 11 Strategic objective Performance indicator Baseline (Actual output) 2011/12 Actual performance against target Reasons for variance Target (2012/13) Actual (2012/13) Compliance with relevant policies and legislation governing the management of the public sector by 2014 % of budget spent 98.3%100%99.4% The variance is as a result of funded vacant posts that could not be filled. % of audit management action plans implemented New indicator 100%68% The variance is attributed to the fact that some of the activities related to some of the targeted action plans were only completed after the year end. % of funded vacant posts 11.47%10%16% The variance is attributed to the increase in the number of funded posts and is traced from the following business areas:  Programme 1: 18%  Programme 2: 5.5%  Programme 3: 41.5%  Programme 4: 13.4%  Programme 5: 13.6 %  Deeds: 11.21% % of the organisational renewal plan implemented New indicator 50%47% Two deliverables of the total targeted for the period under review, were removed and these two constitute the variance.

Program 1: Administration Cont.. 12 Strategic objective Performanc e indicator Baseline (Actual output) 2011/12 Actual performance against target Reasons for variance Target (2012/13) Actual (2012/13) Compliance with relevant policies and legislation governing the managemen t of the public sector by 2014 Number of pieces of legislation submitted to Parliament Of the seven pieces of legislation which constitute the variance:  Three Bills were taken out of the 2012 Legislation Programme through the permission of the Leader of Government Business. These included the: - Land Tenure Security Bill and the proposed legislative imperatives will be catered for in the amendment to the Extension of Security of Tenure Act (ESTA); - Spatial Data Infrastructure Amendment Bill because the department has identified a requirement for a more controlled framework for policy development within government. - Electronic Deeds Registration Bill because of the finalisation of the policy development.  Two Bills were approved by Cabinet for public consultation just after the year end. These are: - Property Valuations Bill and - Restitution of Land Rights Amendment Bill.  The drafting of the Land Protection Bill was stopped because of a process to solidify the policy position which is expressed in the Policy on Land Owned by Foreign Nationals (PLOF).  The Communal Property Association Amendment Bill, (CPA) is being finalised in tandem with the policy.

Programme 1: Administration Cont.. 13 Strategic objective Performan ce indicator Baseline (Actual output) 2011/12 Actual performance against target Reasons for variance Target (2012/13) Actual (2012/13) Rural Development and Land Reform policies and legislation developed by 2014 Number of policies submitted to Cabinet Draft Green Paper on Land Reform and a draft policy developed 101The variance on the submission of targeted policies to Cabinet is attributed to the prioritization of participatory consultation processes and the necessary intensive research undertake. However, although the target was not fully achieved, the progress is as follows: -Land Management Commission Policy was approved in March Policy on Land Owned by Foreign Nationals (PLOF) was referred back for further consultation. -Three policies were approved internally, these are: the Rural Development Policy Framework (RDPF), Land Tenure Security Policy for Commercial Farming Areas and the Restitution Policy. -Rural Cooperatives Financing Facility (RuCoFF) and Policy on Rural Development Agency have gone through initial research, conceptualisation and Ministerial approval. -Communal Tenure Policy (CTP) is at the last stages of consultation. -Policy on Free Hold Tenure with Limited Extent is undergoing extensive last stages of development.

Program 2 : Geospatial & Cadastral Services Under this program, one of the major achievements has been the verification of 99.5% of the State land register It has also recorded significant performance in the following areas: surveying of State land in the former homelands and skills development in the form of championing training in geomatics to mitigate against the scarcity of technical expertise in this area of service. 14

Program 2 : Geospatial & Cadastral Services Cont.. The department continued to service the backlog of 25 spatial plans which could not be delivered in the 2012/13 financial year and this led to 14 Spatial Plans formulated out of 37 targeted for. Furthermore, the limited human resources focused on supporting Parliament in the processing of the SPLUM Bill. 15

Therefore, the total delivered in the year under review is 39 (14 actual for 12/13 and 25 for 11/12). The focus on servicing the backlog of 25 SDFs accounted for the variance of 23 against the set target of 37. Furthermore, the limited human resources focused on supporting Parliament in the processing of the SPLUM Bill.

Program 2: Geospatial & Cadastral Services Cont.. 18 Strategic objective Performan ce indicator Baselin e (Actual output) 2011/1 2 Actual performance against target Reasons for variance Target (2012/13) Actual (2012/13) An integrated land planning, spatial information and administration system to promote an equitable, sustainable land use and allocation by 2014 Average number of working days taken to process registrable diagrams, sectional plans 21 days14 days21 daysVariance is attributed to limited skilled and experienced personnel and staff shortages. Other projects (such as State land audit, calculation of extent) kept the officials out of offices thus affecting the turnaround time on the processing of registrable diagrams and sectional plans. It must be noted that other offices such as the Surveyor General Western Cape and Bloemfontein met the target of 14 days.

Program 2: Geospatial & Cadastral Services Cont.. 19 Strategic objective Performanc e indicator Baseline (Actual output) 2011/12 Actual performance against target Reasons for variance Target (2012/13) Actual (2012/13) An integrated land planning, spatial information and administration system to promote an equitable, sustainable land use and allocation by 2014 % of the State land register verified 54%100%99.5%A slight variance in the verification of the State land is attributed to the fact that field workers were denied access to certain areas. Furthermore, some land parcels could not be located at all in some areas. A total of land parcels in KwaZulu-Natal, Gauteng and Free State mostly residential in nature could not be verified.

Workshops completed E-cadastre not yet operational. E- cadastre developed The develop- ment processes has in the year under review delivered on the following: -Planning documents -Design documents -Content management -User access management -The portal The non achievement of targets on the development of the E-cadastre is attributed to the fact that the project fell behind schedule due to a number of reasons including disagreement between the department and the service provider. However, all disputes were resolved. The department subsequently developed a “catch-up” plan however delivery deadlines within the plan may not be realised, hence the department is developing a detailed plan for all deliverables to be achieved within realistic timeframes. The development processes has in the year under review delivered on the following: Certain planning documents, certain design documents and development verification to the Gijima system development and test environment in respect of:  Content management  User access management  The portal

Program 2: Geospatial & Cadastral Services Cont.. 21 Strategic objective Performance indicator Baseline (Actual output) 2011/12 Actual performance against target Reasons for variance Target (2012/13) Actual (2012/13) Skills development and sustainable economic opportunities created by 2014 Number of people trained in geomatics 1 programme initiated. The examinations for pupil Cadastral officers were set. 6057*The training programme takes two years to complete. The variance is as a result of trainees who have not graduated.

Program 3 : Rural Development In pursuit of promoting vibrant, sustainable and equitable rural communities, the department performed significantly well in the following service areas: Assisting rural communities with agricultural infrastructure and services, Providing households with access to socio-economic infrastructure using the CRDP model, Skills development (especially targeting rural youth) in order to improve rural livelihoods and creating Jobs through rural development initiatives. 22

Program 3 : Rural Development Cont.. In these performance areas, the department did not just meet its commitments for the year under review; it exceeded its set targets. This is viewed as a positive indication towards the realisation of the CRDP objectives households access food security interventions. More than 4500 people assisted to access skills to improve rural livelihoods A total of 5881 youth were trained through the NARYSEC programme during the year under review. 23

Program 4 : Restitution The Commission on Restitution of Land Rights finalised a total of 602 land claims between 1 April 2012 and 31 March The variance is attributed to the fact that most of the senior and executive management positions were filled which contributed to the improvement on the capacity of the Commission to deliver. The Commission settled more financial compensation claims where research work had already been completed and fewer cases which warranted referral to court resulting in an administrative settlement. 27

Programme 4 : Restitution A total of 376 land rights restored or awards of alternative equitable redress were finalised out of 380 targeted for. Disputes between the family members and the delays in the conveyancing processes were among the other challenges that contributed to the slight variance. 28

Program 4 : Restitution 29

Programme 5 : Land Reform Land reform remains a critical priority of the department and one of the central pillars of the CRDP. The program acquired and allocated a total of hectares of land to beneficiaries. Improving the productivity of the acquired farms, forms part of the department’s support provided to emerging farmers, in this regard then a total of 200 farms were placed under the Recapitalisation and Development program over the financial year under review. 30

Programme 5 : Land Reform Cont.. Department performed significantly well in creating 1059 jobs through the land reform program. Job creation and training of farmers aimed at improving productivity of the land reform farms play a significant role in promoting sustained rural livelihoods in line with the objectives of the CRDP. 31

Programme 5 : Land Reform Cont…. Changes were made on the indicator “number of irrigation schemes under revitalisation” and its targets were moved from the Land Reform Program to the Rural Development Program. This was informed by the fact that revitalization of irrigation schemes has a lot to do with infrastructure development which is the competence of the Rural Infrastructure Development Branch. As a result of this, both the indicator and its targets were moved to the Rural Infrastructure Development Branch. 32

Programme 5 : Land Reform Cont…. Programme 5: Land Reform Strategic objectivePerformance indicator Baseline (Actual output) 2011/12 Actual performance against target Reasons for variance Target (2012/13)Actual (2012/13) Strategically located land acquired and allocated by 2014 Number of hectares acquired ha ha The department changed from a hectare- driven approach to acquisition of going- concerns (existing agricultural business concerns). Furthermore, 25% of the land acquisition budget was shifted to fund the Recapitalisation and Development Programme. Recapitalisation and development support provided to land reform beneficiaries and rural communities by 2014 Number of new farms under recapitalisation Farms under recapitalisation and development require intensive investment. Therefore, as a result of limited financial resources, the projected targets could not be realised as planned. Skills development and sustainable economic opportunities created by 2014 Number of jobs in land reform projects New indicator The strategic partners responded positively to the call for job creation and as such, jobs created exceeded the target set. Number of farmers trained Challenges were experienced with the administration and collection of data on training. 33

Key priorities for the forthcoming financial year The National Development Plan (NDP) identifies the following policy imperatives, which will be the focus of the coming MTSF period: 1) Improved land administration and spatial planning for integrated development with a bias towards rural areas 2) Up-scaled rural development as a result of coordinated and integrated planning, resource allocation and implementation by all stakeholders 3)Sustainable land reform (agrarian transformation) 4)Improved food security 5)Smallholder farmer development and support (technical, financial, infrastructure) for agrarian transformation 6)Increased access to quality basic infrastructure and services, particularly in education, healthcare and public transport in rural areas 7)Growth of sustainable rural enterprises and industries characterised by strong rural-urban linkages, increased investment in agro-processing, trade development and access to markets and financial services– resulting in rural job creation 34

PART B 2012/1213 Financial Performance 35

/13 Financial Performance Summary In the year under review, the department focused on developing policies and legislation with a view to strengthen the realisation of its mandate. As a result, extensive public consultations on key policies were held. This proved to be a significant cost driver in the year under review Details on the various policies and legislation implemented by the department are outlined in the Predetermined Objectives part of the Annual Report. The implications of the new policies and legislation will require the department to increase internal capacity to adequately support implementation. The year 2013 marks the centenary of the 1913 Natives Land Act. In this regard, the last quarter of the financial year focused on activities geared towards marking the centenary and reversing the legacy of the past. The project to identify state-owned land parcels from the ownership register managed by the Deeds Registries was completed. The construction of the Nkosi Dalibhunga Mandela Legacy Bridge, and access road between Mvezo Village and the N2 turn-off in the King Sabata Dalindyebo Local Municipality in the Eastern Cape was also completed. Funding of this project was in collaboration with the Eastern Cape Provincial Government. Expenditure for the year amounted to R8.9 billion representing 99.4% of the final appropriation (2011/12: R7.9 billion and 98.3%). This reflects an increased spending of 1.1% or R922 million. Unspent funds of R55 million (0.6%) remained attributable to delays in filling vacant funded posts. The variances per programme are detailed in the notes to the appropriation statements. As disclosed in the Appropriation Statement, virements were effected to accommodate excess expenditure in the relevant programmes. The shifting of funds within a programme was also effected in accordance with the Public Finance Management Act.

/13 Financial Performance Summary cont…. The Deeds Registries are established in terms of the Deeds Registries Act, 1937 (Act 47 of 1937). The main source of funding is fees charged on the registration of deeds and on the sale of deeds information. The entity keeps full records of the financial affairs separately from that of the department. Shortfalls in the account, if any, are appropriated from savings in the budget of the department under Programme 2. The entity’s audited annual financial statements are included in this Annual Report. The Agricultural Land Holding Account was established in terms of the Land Reform: Provision of Land and Assistance Act, 1993 (Act No. 126 of 1993). The entity receives its funding from the department’s appropriated funds. It keeps full records of its financial affairs separately from that of the department. The entity’s audited annual financial statements are included in this Annual Report. The Ingonyama Trust Board is established in terms of the provisions of the Kwazulu-Natal IngonyamaTrust Act, 1994 (Act No 3 of 1994). Its core business is to manage land for the material benefit and social wellbeing of the individual members of the tribes. The entity’s audited annual financial statements are disclosed in its own Annual Report. The department did not have conditional grants transferred to other spheres of government; it had partnership agreements with entities of government as implementing agents to implement various projects on its behalf. It had transferred over R195, 9 million to these entities during the period under review. Funds that were not utilised at year-end are disclosed as receivables. On Public Private Partnership the relocation of the department’s Tshwane staff into one office campus has not progressed as anticipated. This is mainly due to the negotiations that are still taking place with the preferred bidder and National Treasury taking into account the risks associated with the review that was instituted by the reserve bidder. The department has established governance committees to assist the Accounting Officer in discharging his duties and responsibilities for the effective administration of the department.

43 Audit outcome for 2012/13 Financial 1.The departmental Audit was completed by the Auditor-General of South Africa (AGSA) within the legislated deadline of 31 July The audit report was issued by AGSA on 31 of July 2013 and the department has obtained an unqualified audit opinion for the first time after receiving qualified opinions in prior years. 3.The audit report contains emphasis of matter regarding significant uncertainties. These matters were not as a result of audit findings but as disclosed upfront by the department in the notes to the AFS. The AG deemed it necessary to bring these matters to the attention of the users of the AFS. The emphasis was on: 3.1 Claims instituted against the department amounting to R3 602 million. These claims are subject to the outcome of legal proceeding. As a result, no provision for any liability (interest and legal costs) has been made in the financial statement of the department. 3.2 The department has a possible liability towards the claimants in terms of the Restitution of Lands Rights Act, 1994 (Act No. 22 of 1994). The total amount of claims verified and on route for approval in terms of section 42D of this Act amounts to approximately R205 million, for which once approved by the Minister it will increase the commitment amount disclosed in Note 21 to the AFS. 3.3 The department has a possible obligation to pay municipal rates on properties of the department. The municipalities may levy rates on properties within their areas in accordance with their rates policies for current and prior years. The ultimate outcome cannot be presently determined and no provision for any liability in respect of municipal rates that may result has been made in the AFS.

44 Audit outcome for 2012/13 Financial cont… 4.Other important matters were reported by the AG and the department has already developed Management Action Plans in order to address these matters. The action plans are monitored monthly by management and progress is reported to the Audit Committee for oversight. 5.As at 30 September 2013, the department has fully implemented 51% of the totals findings raised, 35% were partially implemented, 7% not yet implemented due future implementation dates and 6% are no longer applicable. This was discussed with AGSA. 6.The department remains committed to maintaining the unqualified audit opinion that it received and will continue to implement measures to attain this ideal.

54 Requested Adjustment Estimates for 2013/2014

/14 AENE Summary 1.The department’s expenditure as at 30 September 2013 amounted to R5.0 billion, thus leaving an available budget of billion. 2.The approach to the AENE is the same as that to the MTEF, whereby departments must fund all additional needs towards the achievement of their identified outcomes from within their existing baseline given the Governments constrained fiscal space. The approach was then to fund all existing commitments 3.The department conducted a CRDP service delivery implementation review which resulted in reprioritising funds from Restitution and Land Reform amounting to R471 million and R629 million respectively. The purpose of this process review was to ensure alignment of the department’s budget structure to the CRDP and MTEF period and MTSF.

2014/2015 to 2016/17 MTEF reprioritisation and additional funding requirements 58 58

/2015 MTEF Summary During 2009, the South African Government conceptualized the Comprehensive Rural Development Programme (CRDP)Comprehensive Rural Development Programme of which the key thrust of the CRDP framework is an integrated programme of rural development, land reform and agrarian change, with a strategic focus on social cohesion and development. The NDP states that since 1994, the main challenge for rural development has been marginalisation of the poor, with many rural areas and households trapped in a vicious cycle of poverty. Rural areas and communities require greater social, economic and political opportunities to overcome the legacy of marginalization and poverty. Led by the Department of Rural Development and Land Reform (DRDLR), and in collaboration with other sector specific stakeholders, the Department drafted the Priorities for the 2014 – 2019 Medium Term Strategic Framework (MTSF). In preparing for the 2014 medium term expenditure framework (MTEF) the department was therefore guided by the above Frameworks and the resources available to meet the demand of the tasks. The outcome of the baseline assessment is that the current baseline is not aligned to the CRDP process flow that will assist the department in implementing the priorities effectively. For this purpose reprioritisation of programmes within the current baseline is recommended. The department has further noted that after reprioritizing the budget within the current baseline there are still gaps,due to new policies introduced after following the green paper remain unfunded, these include the new bills that are at the final consultation processes. Over and above that structural deficiencies were identified in the budget which necessitate further funding requests. The department is therefore recommending additional funding to the amount of R6.8 billion over the MTEF period.

/2015 MTEF Summary Summary cont…. Following engagements with National Treasury, the Department was advised to review its reprioritisation to realise savings amounting to R2 billion over the 2014 MTEF baseline. The following principles were followed in realising the savings: 1.Fund all the existing commitments as far as possible, for Restitution, Land Reform and in Administration. These include, Compensation of employees, goods and services contracts, Restitution Claims that will possibly be concluded over the medium term, Recap and development Commitments as well as land acquisition. 2.This assumed that NARYSEC commitments will be funded through the competitive bidding process 3.It was assumed that Rural Development will upscale its coordination role over the 2014 MTEF years and transfer the implementation role to the relevant sector departments with specific competencies As a result, the department’s baseline was reduced as follows over the MTEF years. 2014/15 – R500 million 2015/16 – R550 million 2016/17 – R950 million

The approach focused on allocating funding to funded filled posts, followed by contractual commitments. As outlined in the table the process led to a shortfall of R138.1 million in year one, without including other operational costs and policy priorities. We therefore concluded that relying only on the baseline assessment will still leave most Programmes unfunded for the strategic objectives to be achieved by the Department.

63 Analysis of Reprioritisation Programme 1. Administration: Current indicative allocation amounts to R892.9 million an amount of R316.7 million was reprioritized to administration which increased budget allocation to R1.209 billion whereby the main contributor is for committed costs for IT, which constitutes 12% of the total departments’ budget. Under administration programme there are costs that relates to the provincial support services (R324.5 million) and office accommodation (R141.7 million), in real terms when you deduct the mentioned allocation which amounts to R466 million. The total allocation for administration then amounts to R743.5 million which constitutes 7.5% of the total department’s budget of R9.905 billion. Programme 2. National Geomatics Management Services Current indicative allocation amounts to R542.5 million an amount of million was reprioritized for National Geomatics Management Services which increased budget allocation to R804.8 million whereby the main contributors are Ecadastre, SPLUM and State Domestic Facility. The programme still remained with a budget shortfall of R258, 3 million for the implementation of SPLUM and the development and implementation of the E – Cadastre. Programme 3. Rural Development Current indicative allocation amounts to R1.278 billion an amount of R832.8 million was reprioritized to Rural Development which increased budget allocation to R2.211 billion whereby the main contributors are RID and REID. The programme still remained with a budget shortfall of to R872.5 million (REID) for the implementation of the CRDP concept. Additional funding for NARYSEC will be requested through economic competitive bid. Programme 4. Restitution Current indicative allocation amounts to R3.717 billion an amount of (756.6 million) was reprioritized through CRDP process which decreased budget allocation to R2.961 billion. The programme still remained with a budget shortfall of R686 million for Restitution re opening and will be submitted to NT. Programme 5. Land Reform Current indicative allocation amounts to R3.474 billion an amount of (655.4 million) was reprioritized through CRDP process which decreased budget allocation to R2.818 billion. The programme still remained with a budget shortfall of R570, 5 million for recapitalization to support small holder farmers and the establishment of the Office of the Valuer General.

IMPLICATIONS OF THE BASELINE REDUCTION Land acquisition will be affected by funds reprioritized out of Land Reform and Restitution Grants (lesser claims will be settled) As Rural Development (REID and RID) will be receiving lesser funding from the reprioritisation. This implies that current commitments that will be running over the MTEF year will remain unfunded. It is therefore, assumed that the relevant sector will inherit those existing commitments. The Policy Options as submitted still remain a necessity. However, the Rural Development funding if secured will have to be allocated to the sector departments (EARMARKED FOR THE PURPOSE ORIGINALLY INTENDED FOR BY THE DRDLR) 67
