3. FOREWORD BY THE MINISTER OF TRANSPORT
I am pleased to present the Annual Report of the Department of Transport for the 2014/15
financial year. The financial year under review marked the end of administration of
Government for the Medium Term Strategic Framework (MTSF) 2009 – 2014. It is therefore
appropriate that we assess our achievements and remaining challenges as we plan for the
next MTSF.
Single Transport Economic Regulator
The development of Single Transport Economic Regulator (STER) Bill is at an advance
stage and will be brought to Cabinet for consideration and approval in the new financial year.
Once implemented, the STER will aim to provide, enhance and guarantee private sector
investments in areas that were exclusively State sectors. The STER will also manage the
relationship between infrastructure owners and operators in a transparent manner in how
tariffs are set, open up for competition in a regulated way and provide opportunities for
access and competition for both the market and in the market.
In terms of Rail Economic Regulation, I have entered into a Memorandum of Understanding
(MoU) with my colleague at the Department of Public Enterprises to establish an Inter-
Ministerial Task Team to develop an Interim Rail Economic Regulator (IRER) for the rail
sector. The IRER will develop a nucleus of skills and capacity in the area of economic
regulation in the rail sector and provide the necessary advice and recommendations to the
Ministers of Transport and Public Enterprises on issues including price-setting, access to the
network and dispute resolution.
Private Sector Participation (PSP) Framework
The sector is still faced with the challenge of ensuring that capital investment levels are
increased for infrastructure maintenance and expansion. In an effort to enhance and harness
private sector investments in the transport sector, the Department is on course to develop
and implement the PSP Framework, which will create space for private sector to invest and
help develop additional carrying capacity in the railway and maritime environments.
N3 De Beers Pass (Harrismith Hub)
The N3 corridor between Durban and Gauteng is South Africa’s principal freight and logistics
corridor. Durban is by far South Africa’s busiest port (over 40 % of imports and exports with
over 80% moving along this corridor by road) and Gauteng is South Africa’s economic
heartland (generating over 33 % of the country’s GDP). Hence, the N3 highway and
complimentary modes are vital for South Africa’s economy and economic growth.
The upgrading of the N3 corridor and the reduction in logistics costs have been identified as
national priorities by the Presidential Infrastructure Coordinating Committee (PICC). The
Strategic Infrastructure Programme (SIP) 2 deals with the Durban-Free State-Gauteng
Logistics and Industrial Corridor. The road network system into the port is indeed a critical
Annual Report for 2014/15 Financial Year Vote 37: Department of Transport
13
part of the logistics chain and vital to ensure the seamless flow of freight. The N3 route
forms the “backbone” of the logistics corridor between Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal via the
Free State. In support of the priorities set by the PICC, the route is integral to achieving
those goals.
The delivery of this project, in whatever form, will have a positive impact on the economy.
During the construction phase, over 669 jobs (direct, indirect and induced) will be created.
Once completed, logistics costs will be reduced, road safety will be enhanced and accidents
will be reduced drastically. Consumer surplus of R 4.310 billion will be created, there will be
a R4.415 billion increase in GDP, household earnings will increase by R2.880 billion per
annum and additional tax revenue of R1.537 billion per annum will be realised.
Mthatha Airport: Upgrade of airport, landing aids, fencing and roads
On the terminal building and related projects around Mthatha Airport, project work started in
January 2014. To date,
Terminal Building: Structural building and curtain walls, terminal plastering, plumbing
and electrical works were completed.
Perimeter Fence: Post planting, Mesh and rail installation and concrete ground beam
were almost completed.
Perimeter Road: Concrete road panels are complete.
Car Parking: Layer works, structural brickwork and wash bay (foundation excavations,
paving and plastering and the roof have been installed.
N2 Wild Coast Highway
The Presidential Infrastructure Coordinating Committee (PICC) expressed full support for the
project and also indicated that a monetary contribution could be available from the fiscus.
Nevertheless, the Greenfields portion of the highway will be implemented as a toll road using
a hybrid funding model. Funding in the form of fiscal transfers will need to be secured for the
N2 Wildcoast Highway. The greenfields portion of the highway includes the following
sections:
Construction of a new highway Ndwalane (approx 14 km outside Port St. John’s) to
Ntafufu River, a distance of about 17 km including interchanges at Ndwalane and at
Ntafufu and a large new bridge across the Mzimvubu River.
Upgrading of the existing R61 between Ntafufu River and Lusikisiki, a distance of about
17 km. including a new interchange at Lusikisiki.
Construction of a new highway between Lusikisiki and the Mtamvuna River at the
existing R61 Mitchell bridge crossing of the Mtamvuna River, including two very large
Annual Report for 2014/15 Financial Year Vote 37: Department of Transport
14
bridges across Msikaba and Mtentu gorges/rivers, and four large bridges to cross the
Mnyameni, Kulumbe, Mpahlane and Mzamba rivers/gorges.
The project scope and implementing parameters were presented to the PICC on a number
of occasions and Environmental Authorisation was obtained in 2010. The road, including
Msikaba and Mtentu Bridges, could be completed within 54 months.
Increase in the use of public transport
Public transport users of 2030 will require a transport system that is safe, secure, reliable,
flexible and easy to use. They would like to plan their journeys in the morning before they
leave home, taking into account information about delays, connections with other modes of
transport and alternatives available to them. They would require their journey to work to be
integrated with the places where they would want to shop and the places of education that
they sent their children to, be it day care or university. They would be sensitive and
cognisant of the impact that their travel decisions would have on the environment and would
require a public transport system that allows them to connect with the technology they are
using in their daily lives.
The Department aims to finalise the Public Transport Plan and its key feature will be how we
prioritise the investments into the right Public Transport areas. To date, public transport
network development, construction and operations are in progress in 13 cities. These
include Cape Town, Johannesburg, Tshwane, George, Rustenburg, Nelson Mandela Bay,
Ekurhuleni, eThekwini, Mangaung, Buffalo City, Msunduzi, Polokwane and Mbombela. Each
municipality will offer some different approaches to the development of the quality public
transport networks. Moving people more effectively and efficiently as they access social and
economic opportunities is the predominant reason for our investment in public transport.
The introduction of the first high-speed rapid rail link in South Africa, the Gautrain, has been
a success and has exceeded expectations in terms of the ridership, its contribution to the
Gauteng economy, transforming the way in which people live, get to places of work,
business, the airport and conducting their leisure activities.
Usage trends and uptake, between 1 April 2013 and 31 March 2014, an average of 42 456
passengers utilised the route between Pretoria and Johannesburg on business days. As a
result, the Gautrain effectively removed 24 200 would-be motorists from the Pretoria to
Johannesburg corridor every business day effectively reducing traffic congestion on this
stretch of highway by 7.5% during the week.
Given this success, the vision of the broader provision of integrated public transport
emerges, which entailed, at its core, a rapid rail link system that would multiply the current
benefits by connecting with the various other modes of transport in metropolitan areas. It
tells the story of how potential extensions to the current commuter rail networks could
connect more people, more businesses, and more parts of the country not currently being
serviced by public transport.

Establishment and re-positioning of Public transport institutions
Cabinet, in 2014, approved the appointment of the Regulatory Committee of the National
Public Transport Regulator (NPTR). This Committee will be operationalized in the new
financial year to accredit tourist transport operators, regulate inter-provincial transport
services, oversee provincial and municipal regulatory entities, and also monitor public
transport countrywide.
As part of the land transport regulatory reforms, the previous Provincial Operating Licence
Boards (POLB) are being repositioned as Provincial Regulatory Entities (PRE’s) within the
Provincial Departments of Transport. This is done to enable better accountability and
efficient provision of services. To date, nine (8) Provincial Regulatory Entities have been
established. The PREs will regulate all road based intra-provincial public transport services.
The NPTR and PREs will also regulate and issue operating licences to enable the provision
of quality public transport services.
Regional Integration for African cooperation and development
The Department will work with the Presidency in implementing the work that continues under
the North-South Corridor, including the work on the Presidential Infrastructure Championing
Initiative (PICI) in integrating the SADC region and the Continent.
In the medium term, the DoT will develop the Regional Corridors Development Strategy for
South Africa that will guide the country in undertaking its regional corridors infrastructure
investment in the short, medium and long-term to improve regional trade following the
trajectory set by the National Development Plan.
National Transport Master Plan (NATMAP 2050)
As per Cabinet resolution of October 2013, the NATMAP alignment with the National
Development Plan is currently underway with the final NATMAP expected in the new
financial year. The NATMAP’s goal is to develop a multi-modal transportation-planning
framework, which is dynamic, long-term and sustainable in line with future transport
infrastructure supply facilities. Its proposed interventions, amongst others are:
High speed network expansion;
Laphalale-Mahalapye new rail line to link the Waterberg Coal Fields with the proposed
Trans-Kalahari corridor;
Moloto Rail Development Corridor as an intervention to deal with price, time and safety
measures, etc.
The plan seeks to respond to sector plans that rely on transport to be competitive in national
or international markets. In the mining sector, the plans seeks to enable movement from pit
to refinery for beneficiation and to port for export of processed and value-added products. In
helping agriculture, the plan seeks to move food/produce from the farmer’s gate to
Annual Report for 2014/15 Financial Year Vote 37: Department of Transport
16
household plates in the country and the world over. Doing this means we have to have a
system that is integrated and cost-efficient such that farmers become part of the global
community.
Improving and preserving national, provincial and local road infrastructure
The Department continues to implement the S’hamba Sonke Programme, which entails
rehabilitation of roads, re-sealing of surfaced roads, patching of blacktops, and blading and
re-gravelling of gravel roads. S’hamba Sonke programme will seek to achieve the following:
60% of employment and empowerment in road infrastructure;
40 % of the S`hamba Sonke Programme (Provincial Road Maintenance Grant) to be
allocated to Operation Tselantle (pothole patching) programme;
This budgetary provision is intended to support 50% of the EPWP Infrastructure Job
Creation Targets.
The DoT has committed to create six million work opportunities during phase 3, of which the
bulk of the work will be for women, youth and people with disabilities. The Department of
Public Works, which is the driver for EPWP programme, will prioritise work opportunities in
the four different sectors, namely infrastructure, environment and culture, social, and the
non-state sector. Government will continue to assist those people who are committed in the
programme through labour-intensive programmes and would want to see these SMMES
improving within their areas.
As I conclude, we also want to reflect on the achievements made by the Department on the
recommendations of the Budgetary Review Recommendations Report (BRRR) of the
Portfolio Committee on Transport of the 22nd October 2014. I am happy to report that as per
the recommendations:
Adequate reviews were performed to ensure that our targets are in line with the SMART
principle and that our performance indicators are clear and have been defined for easy
understanding. We are currently improving our controls to ensure validity, usefulness
and reliability of all sector reports.
As per the current management and audits reports by the Auditor-General (AG),
tremendous progress has been made to address findings made by the AG in previous
years. Implementation of action plans to address critical audit findings is monitored on a
continuous basis.
Compliance to supply chain management controls and processes is monitored
continuously and the process of ensuring a full asset count and verifications has been
prioritised with the due date set for November 2015.
Advertisement and filling of vacant posts has been prioritised by the Department. Formal
recruitment processes are followed at all times.
Key steps are being taken internally to ensure that the entity oversight function is
improved. The Department is currently assessing its structural options and is
benchmarking with sister Departments for best practices.

The DoT Strategic Plan 2015 – 2020 and Annual Performance Plan 2015/16 have been
assessed by the DPME, through the MPAT process, and found to be aligned with the
MTSF and NDP.
I wish to thank the Deputy Minister, the Director-General, the Portfolio Committee on
Transport, Select Committee of Business Development, and the dedicated staff of the
Department of Transport for the support and assistance they have provided to me over the
years. Our sincere gratitude is also extended to the Heads of Departments and staff at
Provincial Departments of Transport, Chairpersons of Boards, Chief Executive Officers and
staff at our State-Owned Entities for their cooperation and support. I am confident that this
support will continue over the term of the new administration. It has been my honour to work
with you to serve the people of South Africa.

4. STATEMENT BY THE DEPUTY MINISTER OF TRANSPORT
As we present our Annual Report 2014/15, we take cognisance of the progress we have
made across different programmes of the Department. Notwithstanding all the achievements
made, we still need to do a lot to ensure that we provide access to a safe, secure, quality
and affordable transport system for passengers and freight users. Our country has made
significant strides in ensuring that quality and affordable transport is available to all South
Africans.
Given the more than three decades backlog of inadequate infrastructure maintenance and
expansion, a lot still needs to be done across the entire transport value chain. We have
endeavoured to develop strategic relations, both in the public and private sectors to ensure
that additional capacity is created for increased investment for all our infrastructure projects.
Operation Phakisa
In the Maritime Sector, we have moved in strides to intensify our input into Operation
Phakisa to ensure that the sector transforms and plays its optimal role within the Oceans
Economy. The Department, in the year under review, started the process of developing the
Green Paper on the Maritime Transport Policy, which aims to enhance the efficiency and
reliability of the Maritime Transport Sector. This is envisaged to be finalised in the 2015/16
financial year.
Moving road freight to rail (increase in container market share)
During the period under review, we have developed the draft Road Freight Strategy, to deal
with amongst others, the optimum split (what belongs to rail to be moved to rail and what
belongs to road remain) between road and rail cargo in order to lessen the burden on our
roads and increase the rail market share. This Strategy will ensure an increase of the rail
market share of 2% per annum (which is approximately 26 mtpa) over a period to 2019.
The Department has also initiated the amendment of the National Traffic Act Regulations to
effect the shift of rail-friendly cargo, particularly bulk non-time sensitive and dangerous
goods.
Strengthening road traffic management (reduction in accidents and fatalities)
Road fatalities remain a serious challenge facing the sector. In conjunction with the Road
Traffic Management Corporation (RTMC), the Department, during the period under review,
continued to strengthen initiatives to reduce road fatalities by half based on our 2010 figures,
as per the resolution (64/255) passed by the United Nation (UN) in 2010. Resolution 64/255
recognised road traffic injuries as a public health challenge threatening progress towards the
successful achievement of the Millenium Development Goals.
In line with the Decade of Action for Road Safety campaign, the country committed to
reducing the carnage by 50% from the 2010 baseline of 13 967 to 7 000 by 2020, with an
expected annual reduction of 700. The country has made an effort to focus on what has
Annual Report for 2014/15 Financial Year Vote 37: Department of Transport
19
come to be known as the 4Es, namely Education, Engineering, Enforcement and Evaluation.
These continue to be implemented in line with the safe system approach. This approach
focuses on ensuring safe travelling practices and places emphasis on the importance of
human behaviour, vehicle fitness and road infrastructure for safer journeys resulting in “five
star drivers, in five star cars, on five start roads.” We further emphasised rigorous
enforcement of key priorities as identified in the Decade of Action Pilllars.
These pillars are:
Road Safety Management: The implementation of an integrated management of road
traffic information by establishing data management systems for the traffic fraternity to
strengthen reporting structures and ensure on-going monitoring and evaluation. The
focus has been to collaborate with key stakeholders such as Department of Health,
Statistics SA, Provinces and municipalities in developing functional and sustainable
traffic information management systems.
Furthermore, we are also intensifying Research and Development to ensure that road
safety solutions are informed by research capability in addressing challenges related to
road safety. A multi-pronged approach will be taken, underpinned by partnerships with
private sector, academia and research bodies.
Safe Roads and Mobility: We are also strengthening spatial development planning in
the Sector to ensure that construction of our roads addresses the tendency of road
separating communities and exposing communities to dangers when using roads.
Priority is being given to road assessment programmes in hazardous locations.
SANRAL, CSIR and RTMC remain integral in ensuring that a multi-disciplinary approach
is taken in dealing with road infrastructure to address road safety.
Safe Road User: Educating our people about dangers of the irresponsible road usage
and the need to be conscious road users has been identified as a key intervention.in this
regard, we also intend prioritising awareness campaigns that will ultimately change the
behaviour and culture of road users. Critical to this is to ensure the following:
o Road Safety forms part of the curriculum by working closely with the Department of
Education;
o Investing in Early Childhood Development programmes to ensure kids are educated
at an early stage, the partnership between the RTMC and the Department of Social
Development will go a long way in making that possible;
o Introducing learner license programme in schools across the country, to equip
students whilst in the senior schooling phase with sound driving knowledge and to
inculcate a culture of safe road usage. The Department of Education in Gauteng has
made it compulsory for all Grade 11 and 12 students to be enrolled in the programme
from January 2015;
Annual Report for 2014/15 Financial Year Vote 37: Department of Transport
20
o Enhancing relations with Faith Based Organisations; and
o Collaborating with Department Sports and Recreation.
Furthermore, we have continued to strengthen our law enforcement efforts by increasing
capacity and visibility of our traffic police. Through the Road Traffic Management
Corporation (RTMC), we have planned to add more than 1000 traffic personnel on our
roads. These recruits will be the first intake to be trained on an improved traffic officer
curriculum aimed at developing a 21st century cadre who will hold the highest ethical and
professional conduct.
The Road Traffic Management Corporation (RTMC) continues to work closely with all
law enforcers across the country, namely SAPS, CBRTA, Home Affairs (Immigration),
SANDF to ensure an integrated approach in dealing with irresponsible behavior on our
roads.
Safe Speeds: Through regulation we are intensifying our efforts to deal with over
speeding on our roads and while at the same time determining the appropriate speed
limits given the conditions of the roads.
Safe Vehicles: We are strengthening our road worthiness mechanism to ensure the
safety of vehicles on our roads and compliance to vehicles safety standards.
Central to Road Safety is the alignment and integration of Road Safety and the Law
Enforcement mandate with the view of maximising the impact and coordination. The funding
model of the Road Traffic Management Corporation (RTMC) will be reviewed in order to
ensure promotion and execution of Road Safety initiatives.
Civil Aviation Safety and Security
In the year under review, the draft Amendment Bills for the ACSA Act and the ATNS Act
were gazetted for public comments. It is envisaged that the process will be finalised by
March 2017. In our concerted efforts to enhance civil aviation safety and security, we have
successfully investigated aircraft accidents and incidents and released quarterly reports with
safety recommendations.
The Aviation Industry Transformation Steering Committee was established in consultation
with the Aviation Industry stakeholders. A plan of action with priorities for the Aviation
Industry transformation was presented to the committee and culminated in a Ministerial
Roundtable on Aviation, which was convened in August 2014. The Department continues to
vigorously conduct awareness campaigns, career expos and exhibitions with the aim of
exposing our youth to Aviation-related career choices.
In conclusion, I wish to thank the Minister, Provincial Members of Executive Committees
(MECs) responsible for Transport, Chairpersons of Boards at our twelve Entities, local and

Administration spent R377.4 million against a budget of R390.9 million, an under
expenditure of R13.4 million. The programme under spent R9.3 million on goods and
services, mainly because the use of consultants were reduced to address audit and legal
issues, to improve the Programme Management Unit, to develop a performance
management system and to continue the restructuring of the Road Accident Fund. R3.3
million was not transferred to higher education institutions because a university discontinued
its administration of these funds, which was requested as a rollover. R0.8 million was under
spent on compensation of employees.
Road Transport over spent its budget by R392.8 million as follows: R313.2 million was over
spent because the cost of maintenance and operations of the Electronic National Traffic
Information System (eNaTIS) could not be recovered from transaction fees that belong to the
Road Traffic Management Corporation (RTMC). R83.4 million was over spent on transfers
that were not paid to the RTMC in 2013/14, which was paid in 2014/15. The programme also
under spent a transfer payment to the Road Traffic Infringements Agency (RTIA) of R3.8
million, which was claimed late. This amount was requested as a rollover.
The department plans to transfer the maintenance and operations of the eNaTIS to the
RTMC as soon as it is able to do so to prevent the over expenditure in future.
Maritime Transport under spent its goods and services by R1.3 million because a number of
projects were not undertaken in the year. R0.8 million was under spent on foreign
membership fees that was not claimed during the year.

The Road Traffic Management Corporation (RTMC) collects transaction fees that are levied
on the renewal of motor vehicle licenses, and, up to April 2012, paid the transaction fees
over to the department to fund the cost of maintaining and operating the Electronic National
Traffic Information System (eNaTIS). During the previous financial year the department and
the RTMC concluded that the transaction fees belong to the RTMC. The expenditure on the
eNaTIS that is incurred by the department is therefore not budgeted for and resulted in
unauthorized expenditure in the current and previous financial years.
To reduce the resulting unauthorized expenditure, funds were shifted across programmes to
augment the budget of the programme: Road Transport as much as possible. The details of
major virements are provided below:
Compensation of employees was under spent by R22.3 million across the department
because not all posts could be filled in the year. The under expenditure was shifted across
programmes to goods and services of the programme: Road Transport.
Administration under spent its budget for goods and services mainly because the use of
consultants were reduced to address audit and legal issues, to improve the Programme
Management Unit, to develop a performance management system and to continue the
restructuring of the Road Accident Fund. Funds were also under spent on transaction
advisors for fleet and accommodation services, and on information technology. A total of
R16.99 million could be shifted to other programmes.
Integrated Transport Planning under spent on goods and services mainly because of under
expenditure on the National Transport Planning Databank, and R3.4 million could be shifted
to the programme: Road Transport.
Annual Report for 2014/15 Financial Year Vote 37: Department of Transport
30
Rail Transport over spent its budget by R0.9 million because of excess expenditure on the
Moloto Development Corridor. Funds were shifted across programmes to cover the shortfall.
Road Transport over spent its budget by R 557.6 million as a result of the unfunded
expenditure on eNaTIS. A total of R164.7 million could be shifted to the programme to
reduce the unauthorized expenditure that was incurred.
Civil Aviation over spent its budget by R10.6 million because the cost of repatriating bodies
of South Africans who died in a building that collapsed in Nigeria was not funded. Funds
were shifted across programmes to cover the shortfall.
Maritime Transport under spent its budget for goods and services by R7.8 million because a
number of projects were not undertaken, mainly a feasibility study on tug boat services,
policy and legislation development, a business model for regional shipping and the
implementation of a Maritime BEE Charter. Expected expenditure on two Marine Courts of
Inquiry did not materialize. As a result, an amount of R6.5 million could be shifted to the
programme: Road Transport.
Public Transport under spent R123.4 million because less taxis were scrapped in the year
than budgeted for, which was shifted to the programme: Road Transport. The programme
also under spent R3.6 million on a range of projects, which enabled the programme to shift
that amount to the programme: Road Transport from goods and services.

5.3. Unauthorised and fruitless and wasteful expenditure
Unauthorised expenditure:
During the previous year the department and the RTMC concluded that the transaction fees
that were utilized to fund the cost of eNaTIS maintenance and operations belong to the
RTMC. The cost of eNaTIS maintenance and operations resulted in further unauthorized
expenditure of R392.8 million during the year. Transfer payments to the RTMC that were
held back in the previous financial year to reduce the unauthorized expenditure were paid in
the current financial year, increasing the unauthorized expenditure in the current year. The
unauthorized expenditure on eNaTIS, including previous financial years, amounted to a total
of R1,161,197,000 at the end of the financial year.
A further R1.2 billion of unauthorized expenditure that was incurred during 2008/09 and
2009/10 as a result of over expenditure on bus subsidies remain unresolved (refer to note 8
to the annual financial statements). The decision of Parliament regarding the over
expenditure on bus subsidies must still be implemented by the National Treasury to allocate
funds to the department against which to write off this unauthorized expenditure via a
Finance Act.
Fruitless and wasteful expenditure:
Included in receivables (note 11 to the annual financial statements) is R470,000 relating to a
fraudulent swop of the procurement of print cartridges, which was reported to the South
African Police Services.
Fruitless and wasteful expenditure that was declared and not yet transferred to receivables,
amounting to a total of R1.365 million as detailed in note 27 to the annual financial
statements, include R547,000 for services paid for but not delivered and an overseas trip
that was undertaken that exceeded the authorization by R640,000, both of which are under
investigation. Other fruitless and wasteful expenditure under investigation amounts to
R88,400, to be written off R86,700 and to be recovered R3,000.
Irregular Expenditure
A total of R102.3 million was declared as irregular expenditure, of which R98.5 million
related to prior years because a contract was extended from 1 May 2010 for a period of five
years without following procurement procedures. The matter is still being investigated. A
further R3.8 million was declared as irregular expenditure in five cases: Services were
procured without obtaining competitive quotations, an employment contract did not exist for
an extension, Public Service Regulations were not complied with, and the supplier’s
database was not used in two cases. Disciplinary steps were taken in one of the new five
cases. Four of the cases were identified during the audit.

5.5. Public Private Partnerships
A Transport Fleet Services Public Private Partnership was entered into during November
2006 to render vehicle fleet services to six Government departments. Services that are
provided for in the contract include long-term vehicle rentals, short-term day-to-day vehicle
rentals, short medium term vehicle rentals, a 24-hour Call Centre, chauffeur and point-to-
point driven services, an internet based fleet management system with an electronic log
book, and a fuel management system.
5.6. Supply chain management
No unsolicited bid proposals were concluded for the year under review.
Supply Chain Management processes and systems are in place to prevent irregular
expenditure.
Measures that were put in place detected the incidents of irregular expenditure, and
are aimed at preventing irregular expenditure.
Measures that were put in place to prevent and / or detect irregular expenditure are as
follows:
Where appropriate, cases of irregular expenditure are referred to the department’s
legal services to determine whether any official can be held liable for the irregular
expenditure.
Cases of irregular expenditure are referred to the department’s Directorate:
Investigations and Forensics for investigation when an investigation is required.
Relevant managers are requested to take disciplinary steps against officials who
makes or permits irregular expenditure.
The Bid Adjudication Committee will not consider condoning irregular expenditure until
a legal opinion has been obtained where applicable and disciplinary steps were
considered.
The contract management system monitors all payments against orders that are
placed, and will detect payments that exceed the contract value.
The contract management system will detect any payments that are approved for
processing for which no order was placed.
Payments for all procurements must be processed via Supply Chain Management so
that any irregular procurement can be detected before payment.
To prevent the occurrence of not completing the internal order and requisition forms,
the Supply Chain Management component does not make any approval documents or
letters of acceptance available until the internal order and requisition forms are
completed.
Initiatives to train all officials who are involved in the approval of procurement matters
will continue.

fair market value of R3,412,542.34 were physically counted but could not be directly
matched to the asset registers. These assets are seen as “gains” and the department is in
the process of matching these assets to assets that could not be verified or directly matched.
If all the “gains” could be matched at their fair market values, the net book value of assets
that could not be verified would amount to R525,177.58
The department is investigating all the assets that could not be verified or directly matched.
Assets under investigation was declared in notes 33 and 33.4 in the financial statements.

1. AUDITOR GENERAL’S REPORT: PREDETERMINED OBJECTIVES
The AGSA currently performs certain audit procedures on the performance information to provide
reasonable assurance in the form of an audit conclusion. The audit conclusion on the performance
against predetermined objectives is included in the report to management, with material findings
being reported under the Predetermined Objectives heading in the Report on other legal and
regulatory requirements section of the auditor’s report.
Refer to page 179 of the Report of the Auditor General, published as Part E: Financial Information.
2. OVERVIEW OF DEPARTMENTAL PERFORMANCE
2.1 Service Delivery Environment
One of the key constraints identified by the sector, in the period under review, was low level of
investment to maintenance and the need for strategic expansion on transport infrastructure network.
In this regard, the department has started engaging the private sector to remove obstacles to
investment. Plans are apace to develop a Private Sector Participation (PSP) framework that will
inform how the sector enhances private sector investment for the medium and long term.
The key feature of the Public Transport Network Development is that construction has continued
apace in Cape Town, Johannesburg, Tshwane, George, Rustenburg and the Nelson Mandela Bay.
Four more municipalities, namely Ekurhuleni, eThekwini, Polokwane and Mbombela, have
commenced network construction. Each municipality will offer a different approach to the
development of quality of public transport networks. The predominent reason for this investment in
public transport networks is to move people more efficeintly and effectively as they access economic
opportunities.
The National Learner Transport Policy was finalised and submitted to Cabinet for approval in the
financial year. The implementation of this policy will be critical in enhancing a safe transportation
environment by ensuring that learner transport operators comply with the Road Traffic Act (Act No. 93
of 1996), as well as the provisions of the National Land Transport Act (Act No. 33 of 2009). Through
the Shova Kalula Programme, which is aimed at improving transport access and mobility for learners
in rural areas, 3 000 bicycles were distributed in rural district municipalities.
In its quest to improve and preserve South Africa’s road network, the department continued to
implement the S’hamba Sonke Programme, which entails road maintenance and rehabilitation. In the
period under review, 1142 lane-km of surfaced roads were rehabilitated, 2 258.58 lane-km of surfaced
roads were resealed, 4 068 km of gravel roads were re-gravelled, 1 929 757m2 of blacktops were
patched (including pothole repairs) and 326 175.2 km of gravel roads were bladed. In addition,
170 065 Work Opportunities and 55 456 Full Time Equivelent (FTE) jobs were created.
The department through the Road Traffic Management Corporation coordinated the implementation of
the 365 road safety programme, which seeks to reduce road fatalities. As part of the programme,
various law enforcement and road safety operations were conducted. Some of these operations
include speed operations, drunken driving operations, vehicles stop and checks and weighing of
heavy vehicles. Central to road safety, was the need to align and integrate road safety interventions
with the law enforcement mandate in order to maximise impact and coordination. This effort will be
enhanced to ensure achievement of the United Nation Decade of Action resolutions.

The introduction of the first high speed rapid rail link in South Africa, the Gautrain, has been a
success and has exceeded expectations in terms of commutership and its contribution to the Gauteng
economy. This mode of transport has also succeeded in removing would be motorists, thus effectively
reducing traffic congestions between Pretoria and Johannesburg.
As part of the Rail Rolling Stock Acquisition Programme, a number of obsolete train coaches have
been brought back to service. A manufacturing factory will be established in Nigel to spearhead the
manufacturing of rolling stock locally. R123 billion has been budgeted over 20 years and the
programme is envisaged to create about 33 000 direct and indirect jobs in the next 10 years. The first
batch of test trains was delivered in January 2015.
The programme to modernise, upgrade and brand about 134 stations in preparation for the new
rolling stock, which includes signalling and telecommunication systems, stations, perway, speed
gates, asset protection as well as train control nerve centres, is under way. The successful
implementation of this programme will enhance sector performance and further improve rail transport
efficiency.
In the period under review, the DoT has reveiwed the National Freight Logistics Strategy to deal with,
amongst others, the optimum split between road and rail cargo in order to lessen the burden on our
roads. The strategy aims to increase rail market share by moving rail friendly cargo from road to rail.
The target for the medium term to 2019 is to increase rail market share by approximately 26 mtpa (2%
per annum).
Planning, designing and construction of a rapid rail project for the Moloto Development Corridor is
underway. A feasibility study has been completed into a transport solution to problems experienced
along the Moloto Corridor. The Moloto Development Corridor is now a registered Public Private
Partnership (PPP) and discussions are at an advanced stage between the DoT and National
Treasury. Interim measures of upgrading the R573 have been handed over to SANRAL. These
measures include intersection capacity and safety improvement, improvement of bus bays (position
and capacity), widening of structures (bridges), storm water and drainage structures, pedestrian and
non-motorised transport facilities, weigh bridges and vehicle testing centres.
The Single Transport Economic Regulator (STER) Bill was submitted to Cabinet for approval in the
period under review. The STER aims to provide, enhance and guarentee private sector investment in
areas that were exclusively State sectors. It will also manage the relationship between infrastructure
owners and operators in a transparent manner in which tariffs are set, enhance regulated competition
and provide opportunities for access to markets.

2.3 Organisational environment
In order to respond to its service delivery mandate, the department aligned and optimised its use of
resources. No structural modifications were made during the financial year and this ensured stability
and economic, effiecient and effective performance. The current DoT structure puts extensive
Annual Report for 2014/15 Financial Year Vote 37: Department of Transport
51
emphasis on the various modes of transport. Complementing this modal approach are two
programmes that seek to provide strategic support to the key programmes of the DoT, namely
Administration and Integrated Transport Planning.
Programme 1: Administration – This programme comprises the Ministry, Office of the Director-
General (ODG), Chief Operations Officer (COO), Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and Transport
Information Systems (TIS)
Programme 2: Integrated Transport Planning
Programme 3: Rail Transport
Programme 4: Road Transport
Programme 5: Civil Aviation
Programme 6: Maritime Transport
Programme 7: Public Transport
Within the period under review, the department has worked diligently to reduce the number of vacant
posts that exist. 134 vacant posts were filled through improvements in internal processes that allowed
for a better success rate in filling of posts in a timely manner. Crucial to the success of the department
was the appointment of a new Director-General during the last quarter of the financial year which
would bring stability and a consistent strategic trajectory. The department will continue to strive
towards reducing the vacancy rate from 23.34% to 10% in the 2015/16 financial year.
2.4 Key policy developments and legislative changes
The Draft Multi-Modal Transport Planning and Coordination Draft Bill was developed. The Bill will
assist in facilitating integrated Macro-Transport Systems Planning in view of guiding investments in
the sector.
The fourth draft Single Transport Economic Regulator (STER) Bill was developed and
submitted to the Minister for approval to proceed to Cabinet. Once approved, STER will
address current fragmentation and inconsistent economic regulation in the sector.
Institutional Gap Analysis was conducted on the White Paper on the National Transport Policy (1996).

3. STRATEGIC OUTCOME ORIENTED GOALS
The work of the department for the 2014/15 financial year was implemented under the following
strategic outcome oriented goals:
1. An efficient and integrated infrastructure network that serves as a catalyst for social and
economic development
To achieve this goal, the DoT developed policies and promulgated legislation that are set to drive
investments for the maintenance and strategic expansion of the transport infrastructure network; and
support the development of transport asset management systems in rural and provincial authorities.
The drive of these interventions was to improve the efficiency, capacity and competitiveness of all
modes of transport.
2. A transport sector that is safe and secure
The DoT continued to promote and ensure implementation of policy interventions and strategies that
sought to reduce accidents and incidents in the road, rail, aviation and maritime environments.
3. Improved rural access, infrastructure and mobility
Through the scholar transport and non-motorized transport interventions, the DoT aimed to increase
mobility and rural access in rural district municipalities.
4. Improved public transport systems
The DoT ensured an effective, efficient, affordable and accessible public transport system in urban
and rural areas through the development and implementation of integrated public transport networks,
establishment and strengthening of regulatory entities, refurbishment and acquisition of new rail

rolling stock and upgrading priority passenger rail corridors.
5. Increased contribution to job creation
Implementation of BBBEE and commissioning of labour-intensive projects by the DoT increased the
creation of jobs in the sector.
6. Increased contribution of transport to environmental protection
Reduction of greenhousegas emissions through the use of more energy efficient modes of freight and
passenger transport and promoting the use of cleaner fuels ensured that the impact of the sector on climate
change ws minimised.

STRATEGY TO OVERCOME UNDER-PERFORMANCE
As part of the Department’s continued endeavor to improve performance, measures will be put into place to ensure that best practices with regard to
performance information are incorporated into the processes of the Department. As a first step, the DoT Planning, Monitoring and Reporting Guidelines will
be reviewed and strengthened to address pertinent issues that lead to under-performance in various programmes. A number of performance standards have
been identified and will be discussed at various structures for approval to be incorporated into the Guidelines.
For the next planning period, improvements will be made to the Technical Indicator Descriptions, which will better assist the Department in ensuring that
performance is better managed; and that portfolios of evidence for all quarterly and annual targets are pre-determined and explicitly defined.
A separate plan will be developed to ensure that the annual targets, which were not achieved in the 2014/15 financial year, will be monitored and reported on.
Annual Report for 2014/15 Financial Year Vote 37: Department of Transport
62
Progress updates will be made to EXCO on a quarterly basis until all targets are achieved.
The Department will continue to proactively identify and address potential areas of non-performance through continuous monitoring and consultations with
respective programmes.
Capacity challenges, as a result of the Departmental high vacancy rate, will continue to receive attention to ensure that affected programmes have the
necessary resources to achieved predetermined targets.
Prolonged stakeholder consultations were the main reason for under-performance in the programme. Whilst these consultations are vital, the programme
needs to ensure that they are better planned and project managed. This will be taken into cognisance in planning for the 2015/16 financial year.
In addressing the underperformance experienced in Bid and Quotation processes, a new Bid Adjudication Committee (BAC) was appointed in the period
under review and will become operational after training is provided for new members.

5. TRANSFER PAYMENTS
5.1. Transfer payments to public entities
Public entities receive sizeable transfer payments from government and are often the front-line providers of
services on behalf of government. It is therefore important to understand the impact of these services on the
community. Departments are requested to provide information on the services provided by these public
entities, transfer payments to the public entities, the actual amount spent from the transfer received by the
public entities, strategic achievements of the public entity. Departments must also comment on monthly
monitoring systems or the lack thereof to monitor spending on such transfer payments. If such monitoring
did take place, departments must provide details of difficulties experienced and what steps (if any) were
taken to rectify such difficulties.

9,052 , 000 was spent by provinces 97%
Reasons for the funds
unspent by the entity
Delayed procurement of services
Monitoring mechanism by the
transferring department
PMU unit was utilised for monthly and quarterly monitoring of activities in the province. Site visits are arranged with all provinces where a selection of provinces in the provinces was attended.
The main reason for deviation of set target are :
Target setting – Quarterly Performance Report targets are set on incremental basis not on project
type selection. This leads to unrealistic target setting. Processes must be aligned with the
budgeting process and project lists are only finalised after budgets are confirmed during
February/March
The delay in procurement of services leads to non-achievement of set targets
More pothole defects found leading in focus on paved roads
Outputs of multi-year projects only realised in the outer years
There are no clear guidelines to review targets as there can be factors influencing performance
but target remains the same though conditions change especially on work opportunities and Full
Time Equivalents (FTE).

PART C: GOVERNANCE
Annual Report for 2014/15 Financial Year Vote 37: Department of Transport
131
1. INTRODUCTION
The Department of Transport is committed to maintaining the highest standards of governance to
ensure that public finances and resources are managed economically, effectively and efficiently.
Good governance structures have been put in place to utilise state resources in a responsible way.
Assessments have been conducted in areas where control measures are lacking or still need to be
established, or improved. Where a lack of capacity has been identified to improve services, new posts
have been created on the department’s establishment in the specific units.
2. RISK MANAGEMENT
A departmental risk register for strategic and operational risks was compiled for the financial year
2014/15. The register highlighted a number of risk areas within the various branches in the
department. A risk management plan, which identified key controls and mitigation strategies, was also
developed and implemented.
Risks assessments were conducted on a quarterly basis to ascertain the effectiveness of mitigation
plans and to identify the emergence of new or secondary risks. The Risk Management and Security
Committee held its meetings on a quarterly basis accordingly and risk management was incorporated
into the performance management practices of the Department. Risk management was a standing
item in Executive Committee meetings and the department reported quarterly to the Audit Committee
on risk management issues.
3. FRAUD AND CORRUPTION
The Department’s Fraud Prevention Plan and Strategy is premised on the following four (4)
conventional pillars, namely:
Fraud Prevention. This is in recognition of the fundamental reality that “Prevention is better
than cure”. In addition to actively promoting an anti-fraud environment through hosting “Fraud
Awareness” workshops and promoting a “whistleblowing” culture, the Department also relies on
Internal Controls, Risk Management, screening and vetting of prospective employees and
Consultants etc. in this regard. The right “Tone at the Top” is still evolving;
Fraud Detection. In recognition that irrespective of attempts geared at creating an anti-fraud
environment as referred to above, the Department recognises that fraud and corruption might still
manifest and hence the need to detect these once they occur. Our primary detection “tool” are the
employees in our Department as they more often than not witness these crimes when committed.
In other instances, Internal Audit serves as a detection tool in that they cover suspicious
fraudulent transactions, which they refer to Forensic Investigation. The focus is therefore placed
on training employees on both the common law crimes of fraud as well as on the Prevention and
Combating of Corrupt Activities Act etc.
In addition, the Department has acquired Audit Command Language (ACL) software so as to
proactively conduct data interrogation and analysis.
Fraud Response. The Department has made strides during this Financial Year and flowing
from investigations into different acts of misconduct, an Executive Manager tendered his/her
Annual Report for 2014/15 Financial Year Vote 37: Department of Transport
132
resignation. Several other investigations have also been conducted. A qualitative transition made
during this Financial Year has been to treat offences in terms of the PFMA with the seriousness
that they deserve and not merely as “childishness”.
Remediation. This function resides in the office of the Chief Operations Officer. It is handled in
terms of the Department’s Disciplinary Code and Procedures. Cases are also reported to law
enforcement agencies and currently, there are cases being investigated by the Directorate:
Priority Crimes and also, the Special Investigations Unit is seized with the process of seeking a
Presidential Proclamation in respect of other cases.
Mechanisms in place to report fraud and corruption and how these operate.eg: Whistle blowing - The
need for officials to make confidential disclosure about suspect fraud and corruption
In addition to reporting directly to the Public Service Commission via the National Anti-
Corruption Hotline (NACH), employees report directly to the Directorate: Forensic Investigations.
There are also employees who report especially conscientious Deputy Directors General and
these (DDGs) in turn channel such reports to the Directorate: Forensic Investigations. Employees
and other stakeholders are permitted to report anonymously.
How these cases are reported and what action is taken
Employees and other stakeholders have the latitude to either report anonymously or, to report
in person. They can either report internally within the Department and also, externally. Besides
reporting to the Public Service Commission, some stakeholders have also used the avenue of the
Public Protector’s Office.
4. MINIMISING CONFLICT OF INTEREST
The Department has implemented a number of measures to minimise conflict of interest. In supply
chain management (SCM) specifically:
The implementation of Standard Bidding Documents, including the SBD 4 Form – Declaration of
interest for all procurement as a measure to minimise conflict of interest in SCM; and the SBD 9
Form – Suppliers’ previous performance with government. SBD Forms are required for all
procurements above R500 000.00. Prospective suppliers or service providers are required to
declare any interest and previous performance and this considered in evaluation and adjudication
processes.
Members of Bid Evaluation and Adjudication Committees are also required to sign necessary
declaration of interest forms prior to participating in evaluation and adjudication processes. Where
interest is declared, respective members are requested to recuse themselves from participating in
SCM processes.
The Financial Disclosure Framework is guided by key principles in the Code of Conduct, Chapter
2 of the Public Service Regulations, 2001. In accordance with Chapter 3 of the Public Service
Regulations, 2001, all members of the SMS were sensitised to disclose their financial interests.
The objective was to identify any conflict of interest in order to promote just and fair administrative
actions of officials in senior positions and thereby to protect the public service from actions that
may be detrimental to its functioning and that may constitute unlawful administrative actions as a
result of ulterior motives. Any SMS member who fails to disclose a financial interest or who wilfully
provides incorrect or misleading details will be found guilty of misconduct.
Annual Report for 2014/15 Financial Year Vote 37: Department of Transport
133
5. CODE OF CONDUCT
The Code of Conduct serves as a guideline to employees as to what is expected of them from an
ethical point of view, both in their individual conduct and in their relations with others. Compliance with
the Code is expected to enhance professionalism and to help ensure confidence in the public service.
New appointees are inducted on the Code of Conduct and SMS members are also trained on
disciplinary matters related to violation of the Code of Conduct.
6. HEALTH SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES
The workplace should be maintained and protected as far as is reasonably practicable against
health hazards attached to the activities.
The quality of the work environment should be such that, employees and those who may be
affected by their activities be free from health hazards
There should be provision of first aid personnel to render first aid services to any injured person
whilst at work
OHS policy should be developed and enforced to ensure compliance
Legal appointments (Health and safety representatives; first aiders; evacuation wardens; fire
fighters) should be done to ensure compliance
Health hazards should be identified (unsafe acts/ condition) and control measures be applied to
mitigate hazards and risks in the workplace
A Health and safety committee should be formalize to discharge its duties (making
recommendations to management on health and safety related matters)
Ensure the provision and maintenance of fire-fighting equipment (required to fight fire in case of
fire eruption)
Emergency plan and procedure should be developed to address any emergency situations
(provision of emergency equipment such as evacuation-chair for people who are physically
challenged)
Effects it may have on the department
Unsafe acts might result in injuries if not addressed
Lack of training or information on health hazards that might be attached to the work activities
might results in unnecessary injuries
Poor participation on emergency evacuation exercises/ drills might cause chaos during
emergency situation
Contravention of the OHS Act if legal appoints not done; policy not enforced; committees not
discharging its duties (non-compliance risk)
Non-compliance risk if no first aid personnel appointed to render or administer prompt first aid
treatment.
7. PORTFOLIO COMMITTEES
The prime mandate of the Portfolio Committee on Transport (PCOT) is governed by the Constitution
of the Republic in respect of its legislative and oversight responsibilities as public representatives. It is
required to consider legislation referred to it and consider all matters referred to it in terms of the
Annual Report for 2014/15 Financial Year Vote 37: Department of Transport
134
Constitution, the Rules of the National Assembly or resolutions of the House. It is also required to
respond to matters referred to it by Government within its mandate. In addition, the Committee is
entrusted with considering the budgets, Stategic and Annual Performance Plans of the Department
and entities that fall within the transport portfolio.
The Portfolio Committee on Transport, having considered performance of the Department of
Transport (DoT) and its Entities for the 2012/13 and 2013/14 financial years, as reported in respective
Annual Reports for the period under review, produced the Budgetary Review Recommendations
Report, dated 22 October 2014. The review sought to establsh whether the Department of Transport
and its Entities were achieving their aims and objectives; and also whether they were fulfilling their
constitutional mandates.
The Committee recommended that the mInister ensure the following:
That adequate reviews are performed to ensure that targets are in line with the SMART principle.
Performance indicators should be clear and easy to understand and controls should be put in
place to ensure that information reported by public entities is valid, adequate and complete.
The Committee was concerned that recommendations on findings that had been made by the
Auditor-General in previous financial years had not been implemented and therefore recommends
that all recommendations made by the Auditor-General be implemented. Action plans and their
implementation by the Department and entities are to address the critical audit findings. The
Committee reiterated during its deliberations that audit committees in the Department and public
entities should monitor risks and quarterly progress. The finance departments of the Department
and entities should further be capacitated with the appropriate skills to prepare credible financial
statements.
That established controls and processes are adhered to at all times in the Department and
entities when procuring goods and services. The contract management system should be
implemented to allow for a full asset count. Officials in the SCM units should be adequately
trained on the latest applicable prescripts. Adequate corrective measures should be put in place
to address transgression of the applicable prescripts.
That the eNaTIS system transfer progress plan be monitored. The Committee will request regular
feedback on the progress made to take over the system ftrom the service provider.
The advertising and filling of the vacant posts, especially key vacant posts, be prioritised in the
Department and that the prescribed recruitment processes be followed at all times. The Portfolio
Committee will monitor the progress of the Department in filling key vacancies.
The Committee further recommennds that the Minister monitors the process with regard to
oversight over the public entities and would request regular feedback on key concerns at these
entities.
That the financial sustainability of entities be prioritiesd. The Minister has to ensure that entities
have adequate human and financial resources available to achieve predetermined objectives. The
Committee will engage with National Treasury on this matter.
That the Strategic Plans and Annual Performance Plans of the Departmant and entities are
aligned to the NDP.
Legislative delays should be addressed as a matter of urgency. The Committee will regularly
request updates from the Departmnet on outstanding legislation.
The Committee commends the unqualified and clean audits received by the Department and its
entities, but recommends an increased focus on the servive delivery.

Report of the auditor-general to the Parliament on
vote no. 37: Department of Transport
Report on the financial statements
Introduction
1. I have audited the financial statements of the Department of Transport set out on pages 185 to 325, which comprise the appropriation statement, the statement of financial position as at 31 March 2015, the statement of financial performance, statement of changes in net asset and cash flow statement for the year then ended, as well as the notes, comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Accounting Officer’s responsibility for the financial statements
2. The accounting officer is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with the Modified Cash Standard and the requirements of the Public Finance Management Act of South Africa (Act no.1 of 1999)(PFMA ) and the Division of Revenue Act of South Africa( Act no. 2 of 2013)(DoRA) and for such internal control as the accounting officer determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor-general’s responsibility
3. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit. I conducted my audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that I comply with ethical requirements, and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
4. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
5. I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my audit opinion.
Annual Report for 2014/15 Financial Year Vote 37: Department of Transport
181
Opinion
6. In my opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Department of Transport as at 31 March 2015 and its financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with the Modified Cash Standard and the requirements of the Public Finance Management Act of South Africa. ( Act no .1 of 1999) and the Division of Revenue Act of South Africa.( Act no. 2 of 2013)
Emphasis of matter
7. I draw attention to the matters below. My opinion is not modified in respect of these
matters.
8. Note 33 to the financial statements indicate that the total of the movable capital assets per
the assets register include assets that are under investigation. The reason why assets are
under investigation is that during a physical asset count, the assets under investigation could
not be directly matched or verified to the asset register. The department is investigating all
the assets that could not be verified or directly matched.
9. The supplementary information set out on pages 326 to 348 does not form part of the
financial statements and is presented as additional information. I have not audited these
schedules and, accordingly, I do not express an opinion thereon.
Report on other legal and regulatory requirements
10. In accordance with the Public Audit Act of South Africa, 2004 (Act no. 25 of 2004)(PAA)
and the general notice issued in terms thereof, I have a responsibility to report findings on
the reported performance information against predetermined objectives for selected
programmes presented in the annual performance report, non-compliance with legislation
and internal control. The objective of my tests was to identify reportable findings as
described under each subheading but not to gather evidence to express assurance on these
matters. Accordingly, I do not express an opinion or conclusion on these matters.
Predetermined objectives
11. I performed procedures to obtain evidence about the usefulness and reliability of the
reported performance information for the following selected programmes presented in the
annual performance report of the department for the year ended 31 March 2015:
Programme 3: Rail Transport on pages 72 to 76
Programme 4: Road Transport on pages 77 to 82
Programme 7: Public Transport on pages 97 to 104
Annual Report for 2014/15 Financial Year Vote 37: Department of Transport
182
12. I evaluated the reported performance information against the overall criteria of usefulness and reliability.
13. I evaluated the usefulness of the reported performance information to determine whether
it was presented in accordance with the National Treasury’s annual reporting principles and
whether the reported performance was consistent with the planned programmes. I further
performed tests to determine whether indicators and targets were well defined, verifiable,
specific, measurable, time bound and relevant, as required by the National Treasury’s
Framework for managing programme performance information (FMPPI).
14. I assessed the reliability of the reported performance information to determine whether it
was valid, accurate and complete.
15. The material findings in respect of the selected programmes are as follows:
Reliability of reported performance information
Programme 4: Road Transport
16. The FMPPI requires auditees to have appropriate systems to collect, collate, verify and
store performance information to ensure valid, accurate and complete reporting of actual
achievements against planned objectives, indicators and targets. Significantly important
targets were not reliable when compared to the source information or evidence provided.
This was due to a lack of frequent review of the validity of reported achievements against
source documentation.
17. I did not identify any material findings on the usefulness of the reported performance
information for programme 4: Road Transport.
18. I did not identify any material findings on the usefulness and reliability of the reported
performance information for the following programmes:
Programme 3: Rail Transport.
Programme 7: Public Transport.
Additional matter
19. I draw attention to the following matter:
Annual Report for 2014/15 Financial Year Vote 37: Department of Transport
183
Achievement of planned targets
20. Refer to the annual performance report on pages 54 to 104 and 105 to 127 for
information on the achievement of the planned targets for the year. This information should
be considered in the context of the material findings on the reliability of the reported
performance information for the selected programmes reported in paragraphs 11 to 18 of

Compliance with legislation
21. I performed procedures to obtain evidence that the department had complied with
applicable legislation regarding financial matters, financial management and other related
matters. My findings on material non-compliance with specific matters in key legislation, as
set out in the general notice issued in terms of the PAA, are as follows:
Strategic planning and performance management
22. A five year strategic plan that covers current financial year was not prepared by the
Accounting Officer as required by Treasury Regulation 5.1.1.
Annual financial statements
23. The financial statements submitted for auditing were not supported by full and proper
records as required by section 40(1) (b) of the Public Finance Management Act. Material
misstatements of non-current assets and disclosure items identified by the auditors in the
submitted financial statements were subsequently corrected and the supporting records
were provided subsequently, resulting in the financial statements receiving an unqualified
audit opinion.
Expenditure management
24. Effective steps were not taken to prevent unauthorised, irregular, fruitless and wasteful
expenditure, as required by section 38(1) (c) (ii) of the Public Finance Management Act and
Treasury Regulation 9.1.1. The irregular expenditure incurred was as a result of the contract
that was extended without following prescribed procurement process. It was a matter
identified during the prior year audit.
25. Funded vacant posts were not filled within 12 months as required by Public Service
Regulation 1/VII/C.1A.2.

Internal control
26. I considered internal control relevant to my audit of the financial statements, annual
performance report and compliance with legislation. The matters reported below are limited
to the significant internal control deficiencies that resulted in the findings on the annual
performance report and the findings on non-compliance with legislation included in this
report.
Leadership
27. Inadequate reviews performed on the financial and performance information and
inadequate monitoring over compliance with laws and regulations.
Financial and performance management
28. Inadequate systems were in place to support the information disclosed in the annual
financial statements.
29. Inadequate controls to ensure that accurate and reliable information was maintained to
support the reported information.
Other reports
Investigations
30. Investigations are being performed on the matters related to contract management. The
investigation covers the period 1 April 2014 to 31 March 2015. These investigations are still
in progress.

Biological assets are subsequently carried at fair value. [Add this sentence on biological assets if the department has elected to revalue its biological assets at reporting date]
Subsequent expenditure that is of a capital nature is added to the cost of the asset at
the end of the capital project unless the movable asset is recorded by another
department/entity in which case the completed project costs are transferred to that
department.
16.3 Intangible assets
Intangible assets are initially recorded in the notes to the financial statements at cost. Intangible assets acquired through a non-exchange transaction are measured at fair value as at the date of acquisition.
Internally generated intangible assets are recorded in the notes to the financial statements when the department commences the development phase of the project.
Where the cost of intangible assets cannot be determined accurately, the intangible capital assets are measured at fair value and where fair value cannot be determined; the intangible assets are measured at R1.
All assets acquired prior to 1 April 2002 (or a later date as approved by the OAG) may be recorded at R1.
Intangible assets are subsequently carried at cost and are not subject to depreciation or impairment.
Subsequent expenditure that is of a capital nature is added to the cost of the asset at
the end of the capital project unless the intangible asset is recorded by another
department/entity in which case the completed project costs are transferred to that
department.
17 Provisions and Contingents
17.1 Provisions
Provisions are recorded in the notes to the financial statements when there is a present
legal or constructive obligation to forfeit economic benefits as a result of events in the
past and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits or
service potential will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the
obligation can be made. The provision is measured as the best estimate of the funds
required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date.

17.2 Contingent liabilities
Contingent liabilities are recorded in the notes to the financial statements when there is
a possible obligation that arises from past events, and whose existence will be
confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future
events not within the control of the department or when there is a present obligation
that is not recognised because it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be
required to settle the obligation or the amount of the obligation cannot be measured
reliably
17.3 Contingent assets
Contingent assets are recorded in the notes to the financial statements when a possible
asset arises from past events, and whose existence will be confirmed by the
occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not within the
control of the department
17.4 Commitments
Commitments are recorded at cost in the notes to the financial statements when there
is a contractual arrangement or an approval by management in a manner that raises a
valid expectation that the department will discharge its responsibilities thereby incurring
future expenditure that will result in the outflow of cash
18 Unauthorised expenditure
Unauthorised expenditure is recognised in the statement of financial position until such time as the expenditure is either:
approved by Parliament with funding and the related funds are received; or
approved by Parliament without funding and is written off against the appropriation in the statement of financial performance; or
transferred to receivables for recovery.
Unauthorised expenditure is measured at the amount of the confirmed unauthorised
expenditure.
19 Fruitless and wasteful expenditure
Fruitless and wasteful expenditure is recorded in the notes to the financial statements when confirmed. The amount recorded is equal to the total value of the fruitless and or wasteful expenditure incurred.
Fruitless and wasteful expenditure is removed from the notes to the financial statements when it is resolved or transferred to receivables for recovery.
Fruitless and wasteful expenditure receivables are measured at the amount that is
expected to be recoverable and are de-recognised when settled or subsequently
written-off as irrecoverable.
DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORT VOTE 37
ACCOUNTING POLICIES for the year ended 31 March 2015

20 Irregular expenditure
Irregular expenditure is recorded in the notes to the financial statements when
confirmed. The amount recorded is equal to the value of the irregular expenditure
incurred unless it is impracticable to determine, in which case reasons thereof are
provided in the note.
Irregular expenditure is removed from the note when it is either condoned by the
relevant authority, transferred to receivables for recovery or not condoned and is not
recoverable.
Irregular expenditure receivables are measured at the amount that is expected to be
recoverable and are de-recognised when settled or subsequently written-off as
irrecoverable.
21 Changes in accounting policies, accounting estimates and errors
Changes in accounting policies that are effected by management have been applied
retrospectively in accordance with MCS requirements, except to the extent that it is
impracticable to determine the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the
change in policy. In such instances the department shall restate the opening balances
of assets, liabilities and net assets for the earliest period for which retrospective
restatement is practicable.
Changes in accounting estimates are applied prospectively in accordance with MCS
requirements.
Correction of errors is applied retrospectively in the period in which the error has
occurred in accordance with MCS requirements, except to the extent that it is
impracticable to determine the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the
error. In such cases the department shall restate the opening balances of assets,
liabilities and net assets for the earliest period for which retrospective restatement is
practicable.
22 Events after the reporting date
Events after the reporting date that are classified as adjusting events have been
accounted for in the financial statements. The events after the reporting date that are
classified as non-adjusting events after the reporting date have been disclosed in the
notes to the financial statements.

23 Capitalisation reserve
The capitalisation reserve comprises of financial assets originating in a prior reporting
period but which are recognised in the statement of financial position. Amounts are
recognised in the capitalisation reserves when identified in the current period and are
transferred to the National Revenue Fund when the underlying asset is disposed and
the related funds are received.
26 Recoverable revenue
Amounts are recognised as recoverable revenue when a payment made in a previous
financial year becomes recoverable from a debtor in the current financial year.
Amounts are either transferred to the National Revenue Fund when recovered or are
transferred to the statement of financial performance when written-off.
27 Related party transactions
A related party transaction is a transfer of resources, services or obligations between
the reporting entity and a related party. Related party transactions are recorded in the
notes to the financial statements when the transaction is not at arm’s length.
