OUR POLICY FRAMEWORKS

• Our overall policy framework continues to be as determined by the White paper on a new housing policy and strategy for South Africa, 1994

STRATEGIC OVERVIEW

Comprehensive Plan for Housing Development

• To find a new focus for housing policy for the next decade of government, the Department embarked on a comprehensive policy consultation process, which culminated in the National Housing Summit in November 2003.

• The comprehensive Plan adopted by Cabinet in September 2004 builds on the 1994 White Paper for housing and envisages expanding the mandate of the Department to encompass the entire housing market.

• The Plan focuses on moving from housing to sustainable human settlements.

STRATEGIC OVERVIEW

• The nature of demand for government-assisted housing in South Africa has changed significantly over the last five years: – A 30% increase in the absolute number of households over the

period 1996 - 2001, where only a 10% increase was expected and household size has also decline.

– One fifth of urban residents are relative newcomers to urban areas (i.e. first generation residents) and urban areas are expected to continue to grow at a rate of 2.7% per annum.

– Population growth trends however reveal significant regional differences and increasing spatial concentration in metros & secondary cities.

STRATEGIC OVERVIEW– Unemployment, on the official definition, leapt from 16% in 1995

to 30% in 2002, placing pressure on household incomes.

– Housing and service provision has not kept pace with household formation, and a range of other factors have had negative impact on social coherence and crime, particularly contact crimes (comprising 40% of all crimes).

– The size of the backlog has increased. There are over 1.8 million dwellings which can be classified as inadequate housing. The number of households living in shacks in informal settlements and backyards increased by 26%, which is far greater than the 11% increase in population over the same period.

STRATEGIC OVERVIEW• Key Challenges and Trends.

– Over the last 10 years, state-assisted housing investment of some R29.5bn has provided 1.6 million housing opportunities, often on the urban periphery and achieving limited integration.

– Transforming the extremely complicated bureaucratic, administrative, financial and institutional framework inherited from the previous government and building capacity of all spheres of government.

– The 1.6 million subsidy-houses that have been built have not in most cases become “valuable assets” in the hands of the poor.

– Housing subsidy grants increased from R2,692bn in 1996/97 to some R4,5bn in 2004/2005 and will increase to R5,3bn in 2006/07. These increases in housing development funding have largely gone towards funding the increases in the quantum of the housing subsidy, which is now adjusted annually for inflation.

STRATEGIC POLICY SHIFTS• The key policy developments embedded in the

Comprehensive Plan include:– A policy to upgrade informal settlements progressively based on

an integrated community development approach and involving the community as a whole.

– A housing land policy will serve to prioritise the release of public land and the acquisition of private land for low cost housing projects.

– A social housing and medium density policy and programme aims to establish social housing institutions that will develop and manage quality, well located, largely rental housing stock on a sustainable basis.

– A policy and programme to provide primary social and economic infrastructure in low income housing developments will contribute towards enhancing the quality of the living environments by providing for community needs.

STRATEGIC POLICY SHIFTS

• Improving international cooperation on human settlement development:– Lead Ministry for UN Habitat (Habitat Agenda) – World

Urban Forum, WSSD;– Cities Alliance – “cities without slums” initiative;– Supporting NEPAD regarding sustainable human

settlement development in the African region is concerned;

– Bi-lateral and multi-lateral cooperation programmes with donor countries.

LINKAGES TO GOVERNMENT PRIORITIES

• The following objectives have been defined by the national Department of Housing:– Accelerating the delivery of housing as a key strategy for poverty

alleviation– Utilizing provision of housing as a major job creation strategy– Ensuring property can be accessed by all as an asset for wealth

creation and empowerment.– Leveraging growth in the economy– Promoting social cohesion and improving quality of life for the

poor.– Support the functioning of the entire single residential property

market to reduce duality within the sector by breaking the barriers between the first economy residential property boom and the second economy slump.

– Utilizing housing as an instrument for the development of sustainable human settlements in support to spatial re-structuring.

LINKAGES TO CLUSTER PRIORITIES

• The National Department and the Provincial Departments of Housing have integrated their activities with the following Cluster priorities:– Job Creation and Expanded Public Works Programme.– Integrated Sustainable Rural Development and Urban

Renewal– Entrepreneur Development Programme and BEE– Promotion of Women Entrepreneurs– Internships– The employment of Community Development Workers

(CDW) and their interface within Multipurpose Community Centres (MPCC’s).
