15. CLARIFYING RESPONSIBILITIES DPW is the owners and custodians of 100% infrastructure for all state departments in relation to state assets In 90 % DPW is responsible for property management of assets we occupy By special arrangement they allowed us to manage 10% that is devolved to the SAPS Challenges with devolvement – since 2007 Ownership lies with DPW Rules were relaxed in relation to maintenance to the facility and Utilisation of the facility Devolvement is only limited to police stations Out of the total number 1130 a total number of 282 is devolved DPW remains responsible for the management of the projects on behalf of the client departments. However the financial allocations for capital works and acquisitions of land have been provided in departmental budgets. High dependency of delivery on ability and capability 14
