ANNUAL REPORT <strong>2010</strong>/11FOREWORD BY THE PREMIER1.2 Foreword by <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>The <strong>2010</strong>/2011 financial year has been characterisedby efforts to refine our ideas, solidify our plans andalign our budgets. The adoption <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> outcomesbasedapproach by Cabinet in <strong>2010</strong> providedGovernment at all levels with a new way to prioritiseand focus on what really matters.In <strong>Gauteng</strong>, <strong>the</strong> key outcome areas identified are:• quality basic education• a long and healthy life for all South Africans• all people in South Africa are and feel safe• decent employment through inclusive economicgrowth• vibrant, equitable and sustainable ruralcommunities contributing towards food security forall• sustainable human settlements and improvedquality <strong>of</strong> household life• a responsive, accountable, effective and efficientlocal government system• creating an efficient, effective and developmentorientedpublic service and an empowered, fairand inclusive citizenship.Over and above <strong>the</strong>se medium-term goals and<strong>the</strong> detailed plans that underpin <strong>the</strong>m, this year wehave also gone a step fur<strong>the</strong>r to placing <strong>Gauteng</strong> on<strong>the</strong> path <strong>of</strong> growth, development and job creation.Vision 2055, which is a proposed blueprint on <strong>the</strong>future <strong>of</strong> <strong>Gauteng</strong>, has been prepared and is readyfor public consultation in 2011/2012. It will serveas a practical guide during our medium and shorttermplanning to ensure that we are on <strong>the</strong> rightpath. This seminal document, toge<strong>the</strong>r with <strong>the</strong><strong>Gauteng</strong> Spatial Development Framework approvedthis year, will create a single platform for land useand o<strong>the</strong>r plans aimed at accelerating growth anddevelopment, while at <strong>the</strong> same time shaping <strong>the</strong>future <strong>of</strong> our Province.PREMIER NOMVULA MOKONYANEThe <strong>Gauteng</strong> City Region (GCR) remains a criticalpart <strong>of</strong> that vision, and this year we have createda partnership with <strong>the</strong> Organisation for EconomicCo-operation and Development (OECD) to conducta territorial review <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> GCR using <strong>the</strong>ir standardmethodology. By adopting this approach we willensure that <strong>the</strong> GCR can be benchmarked againsto<strong>the</strong>r city regions and we will also obtain key dataand insights to inform future policies and plans.This financial year has seen a renewed focus on<strong>the</strong> empowerment <strong>of</strong> women, youth and peoplewith disabilities. New policy frameworks for<strong>the</strong> empowerment <strong>of</strong> women and people withdisabilities have been created to give effect to ourdeep commitment to mainstreaming <strong>of</strong> this sector.These policies will not only improve <strong>the</strong> focus <strong>of</strong> ourinitiatives and streng<strong>the</strong>n <strong>the</strong> implementation processbut also enhance <strong>the</strong> monitoring and evaluation <strong>of</strong><strong>the</strong>se programmes.In our efforts to improve <strong>the</strong> quality <strong>of</strong> service deliveryin <strong>Gauteng</strong>, based on <strong>the</strong> principles <strong>of</strong> accountability,efficiency and effectiveness, we have reconfigured<strong>the</strong> institutional arrangements and structure <strong>of</strong><strong>the</strong> <strong>Gauteng</strong> Provincial Government. We are alsoconscious <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> fact that quality service deliverywill always be compromised if <strong>the</strong> fight againstcorruption is not intensified. In this regard, we hostedan anti-corruption summit to obtain <strong>the</strong> support <strong>of</strong>organised labour, business and civil society. Thisinitiative is in line with our view that corruption is asocietal scourge that can only be eradicated if anintersectoral approach is adopted which encourages<strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>9 9

The support that wehave received has been heartening and we will buildon this.As we work to improve <strong>the</strong> way we interact andcommunicate with <strong>the</strong> residents <strong>of</strong> <strong>Gauteng</strong>, wehave reorganised our Izimbizo such that <strong>the</strong>yallow for <strong>the</strong> meaningful exchange <strong>of</strong> informationbetween government and residents, thus enhancinggovernment’s work and operations and <strong>the</strong> wellbeing<strong>of</strong> our communities. To this end a number <strong>of</strong>Izimbizo have been held across <strong>the</strong> Province to createopportunities for direct engagement. In additionwe also organised road shows across <strong>the</strong> Provinceto highlight key economic opportunities and o<strong>the</strong>rservices for <strong>the</strong> people <strong>of</strong> <strong>Gauteng</strong>.In light <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> work done and <strong>the</strong> achievementsattained, we are convinced that <strong>the</strong> <strong>2010</strong>/2011period has yielded great results and that it is a trendthat will continue in 2011/2012.I would like to thank <strong>the</strong> Director-General, MsNosizwe Nokwe-Macamo for her leadership andenthusiasm, <strong>the</strong> former Chief Operating <strong>Office</strong>r,Ms Margaret-Ann Diedricks, for her contribution asActing Director-General and all staff in <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong><strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> for <strong>the</strong>ir dedication and hard work.NOMVULA MOKONYANEGAUTENG PREMIER10<strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>

These objectives underpin <strong>the</strong>Budget Vote and <strong>Annual</strong> Performance Plan (APP) <strong>of</strong><strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>, which provide <strong>the</strong> frameworkfor this report. Each division makes unique contributionto <strong>the</strong>se objectives through a range <strong>of</strong> plannedactivities, guided by specific targets and measuredby performance indicators that are established at <strong>the</strong>beginning <strong>of</strong> every year. These plans and targets areincorporated into <strong>the</strong> performance targets <strong>of</strong> all SeniorManagement Service (SMS) members and are regularlyreported on.The five-year objectives for <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>are as follows:• providing strategic support to <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> and<strong>the</strong> Executive Council to ensure effective strategicleadership <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> work <strong>of</strong> government and <strong>the</strong>realisation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> electoral mandate• driving a shared vision and <strong>the</strong> strategic priorities<strong>of</strong> government to ensure effective implementation<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> electoral mandate• facilitating <strong>the</strong> setting <strong>of</strong> clear priorities, enablinglegislation and improved governance to realisedesired policy outcomes• building a developmental state with capacity todrive change and transformation for <strong>the</strong> betterment<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> lives <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> people <strong>of</strong> <strong>Gauteng</strong>• driving short, medium and long-term provincewideplanning to ensure integrated and streamlinedplanning and development across departmentsand spheres <strong>of</strong> government• monitoring and evaluation <strong>of</strong> governmentperformance• forging social compacts with all stakeholders tostreng<strong>the</strong>n social partnerships for improved servicedelivery in <strong>Gauteng</strong>• ensuring that <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> is provided withappropriate support to effectively execute her roleand responsibilities in <strong>the</strong> Legislature• fostering strong intergovernmental andinternational relationships to advance <strong>Gauteng</strong>’sdevelopment agenda• driving <strong>the</strong> human resource policy and strategyto attract, develop and retain best possible skillsand to harness <strong>the</strong> productive energies <strong>of</strong> all GPGemployees• driving integrated and effective governmentcommunication to ensure that <strong>the</strong> people <strong>of</strong><strong>Gauteng</strong> are well informed and have access tocredible information about government servicesand programmes• promoting participatory democracy to ensureongoing interaction between government and civilsociety.A critical development with regard to <strong>the</strong> core mandate<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> was <strong>the</strong> adoption <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>outcomes-based approach to planning by Cabinetin February <strong>2010</strong>. As highlighted by <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> inher foreword to this report, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Gauteng</strong> Province,in aligning itself to this national framework and <strong>the</strong>prescribed outcomes <strong>the</strong>rein, adopted 8 key outcomesfor <strong>the</strong> period until <strong>the</strong> end <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> term in 2014 that<strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> will play a central role infacilitating.In addition to driving this process across all portfoliosin <strong>the</strong> GPG, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> has alsotaken <strong>the</strong> lead with regard to <strong>the</strong> implementation<strong>of</strong> Outcome 8A which aims to create an efficient,effective and development-oriented public serviceand plays a central role in <strong>the</strong> implementation <strong>of</strong>Outcome 8B which encompasses activities to createan empowered, fair and inclusive citizenship.The section below provides a brief overview <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>highlights <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>2010</strong>/2011 financial year, whichare discussed in more detail throughout this <strong>Annual</strong><strong>Report</strong>.1.3.2 Outputs and OutcomesThe work <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Gauteng</strong> Planning Commission (GPC)has been at <strong>the</strong> heart <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> in<strong>2010</strong>/2011. Tasked with centralised short, mediumand long-term planning for <strong>the</strong> Province, <strong>the</strong> GPC hasmade great strides in delivering on its objectives in<strong>2010</strong>/2011. Detailed outcome plans, which give effectto <strong>the</strong> agreed provincial outcomes through concreteactivities and targets and specific performancemeasures were drafted and approved. This process hasbeen critical in embedding <strong>the</strong> outcomes approach inall departments, as well as creating a shared platformfor coordinated and integrated planning. In addition,municipal plans have been aligned to this frameworkto ensure that both provincial and local governmentplans are coherent and consistent. Vision 2055, whichrepresents a significant step in providing a longtermvision for <strong>the</strong> development <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Province, wasdrafted in <strong>the</strong> year under review and complementedby a Spatial Development Framework that will be<strong>the</strong> foundation <strong>of</strong> a coordinated approach to spatialplanning in <strong>the</strong> Province.With plans in place to guide implementation, <strong>the</strong>priority has also been to monitor <strong>the</strong>se plans. The<strong>Gauteng</strong>-Wide Monitoring and Evaluation Framework12<strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>


ANNUAL REPORT <strong>2010</strong>/11approved in 2009/<strong>2010</strong> has been implementedand maintained. The plans <strong>of</strong> all departments arecombined into an Intergovernmental Programme <strong>of</strong>Action (POA) that forms <strong>the</strong> framework for monitoringand evaluation. Monthly and quarterly reports havebeen submitted regularly to <strong>the</strong> Executive Council(EXCO) and an annual report, documenting <strong>the</strong>consolidated overview <strong>of</strong> performance against <strong>the</strong>POA has been finalised. An impact study on <strong>the</strong> EarlyChildhood Development (ECD) programme was alsocompleted in <strong>the</strong> year under review to gain insightsfor planning and implementation purposes into <strong>the</strong>outcome that this core educational initiative has hadon children in <strong>Gauteng</strong>.Good planning is informed by good research. Incollaboration with <strong>the</strong> Organisation for Economic Cooperationand Development (OECD), <strong>the</strong> <strong>Gauteng</strong>Province has initiated a Territorial Review <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><strong>Gauteng</strong> City Region which will provide a range <strong>of</strong>data, comparable with o<strong>the</strong>r city-regions across <strong>the</strong>world, to inform policy, programmes and projects.<strong>Gauteng</strong> has maintained cordial and effective relationswith international partners and intergovernmentalstakeholders in <strong>the</strong> delivery <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Programme <strong>of</strong>Action for many years. The focus <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>se activities in<strong>the</strong> <strong>2010</strong>/2011 financial year was <strong>the</strong> implementation<strong>of</strong> newly approved frameworks to guide and informall activities in this regard. The Province has renewedits relationship with <strong>the</strong> Free State <strong>of</strong> Bavaria inGermany through a new cooperation agreement andreviewed <strong>the</strong> existing agreement with Ille-de-Franceto form a new partnership. Local government is acritical partner in service delivery, and in recognition<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> importance <strong>of</strong> “joined up” government,<strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> has facilitated regularengagements with local government through <strong>the</strong><strong>Premier</strong>’s Co-ordinating Forum (PCF) at both politicaland operational levels, and also initiated a review <strong>of</strong>all existing intergovernmental relations structures tostreamline and focus <strong>the</strong>se engagements.Locating <strong>the</strong> Executive Council at <strong>the</strong> heart <strong>of</strong>governance in <strong>the</strong> Province emerged as a criticalpriority in <strong>the</strong> new term. Consolidating on <strong>the</strong>foundations laid in 2009/<strong>2010</strong>, cabinet supportservices such as policy analysis, policy advice, agendasetting and logistical support has continued to be acritical function. The e-Cabinet project, also initiatedin 2009/<strong>2010</strong>, saw <strong>the</strong> focus shift from facilitiesto systems, and <strong>the</strong> development and piloting <strong>of</strong>an electronic management system to improve <strong>the</strong>efficiency and effectiveness <strong>of</strong> cabinet services andprocesses.Service delivery renewal has been a significant focusacross <strong>the</strong> GPG since 2009. This year, in support<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> broader efforts to improve service delivery,<strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> has continued to facilitateand coordinate <strong>the</strong> reconfiguration <strong>of</strong> governmentdepartments and also to provide <strong>the</strong> frameworks forimproved functioning. The <strong>Gauteng</strong> Anti-CorruptionStrategic Framework was approved by EXCO, and avery successful Anti-Corruption Summit was held withstakeholders from government, organised labour, <strong>the</strong>private sector and civil society to ensure that <strong>the</strong>re isbroad commitment to anti-corruption efforts in <strong>the</strong>Province. In addition, to ensure greater economyand efficiency in government services and to giveeffect to <strong>the</strong> Batho Pele principles, a Value for MoneyFramework was drafted.Empowering women, people with disabilities and <strong>the</strong>youth remained critical in <strong>the</strong> year under review. Toimprove planning, implementation and reporting,<strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> drafted new policies for <strong>the</strong>mainstreaming <strong>of</strong> women and people with disabilitiesthat will ensure new energy and attention on <strong>the</strong> issuein all government departments. Partnerships in thisregard remain critical, and through intergovernmentaland civil society structures, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> hasmaintained regular engagements with all stakeholdersto facilitate and coordinate implementation and tomonitor progress.As outlined in <strong>the</strong> mandate above, communicationservices are a fundamental function <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong><strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>. Using a variety <strong>of</strong> media platforms suchas <strong>the</strong> service delivery expos, Economic opportunitiesroad shows open day, <strong>Gauteng</strong> Provincial GovernmentPortal, publications such as <strong>Gauteng</strong> News and faceto-faceengagements with communities, critical EXCOdecisions, <strong>the</strong> POA and progress in <strong>the</strong> implementation<strong>of</strong> this plan have been regularly communicated to <strong>the</strong>citizens <strong>of</strong> <strong>Gauteng</strong>. Informed by an <strong>Annual</strong> PerceptionSurvey, <strong>the</strong>se communication efforts are coordinatedthrough an <strong>Annual</strong> Communication Strategy andIntergovernmental Communication Forum that ishosted by <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>. The system alsoensures regular engagements with <strong>the</strong> media as wellas <strong>the</strong> production <strong>of</strong> media releases and opinionpieces that convey important information to <strong>the</strong> publicthrough print and broadcast media. Through <strong>the</strong> rollout <strong>of</strong> Brand <strong>Gauteng</strong> in <strong>2010</strong>/2011 a range <strong>of</strong> newand exciting partnerships were created such as <strong>the</strong>CAF Women’s Championship in support <strong>of</strong> BanyanaBanyana’s participation in <strong>the</strong> tournament and with<strong>the</strong> 1860 Indian Settler’s Foundation to host an eventas part <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> 150 year celebrations.<strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>13


ANNUAL REPORT <strong>2010</strong>/11The hosting <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>2010</strong> FIFA World Cup in June andJuly <strong>2010</strong> was a focal point for a range <strong>of</strong> activities in<strong>the</strong> Province, and <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> made surethrough targeted media campaigns that citizens wereencouraged to participate and fly <strong>the</strong> flag in support<strong>of</strong> Bafana Bafana and <strong>the</strong> soccer show piece.1.3.3 Expenditure ReviewAs detailed in <strong>the</strong> Accounting <strong>Office</strong>r’s <strong>Report</strong> and <strong>the</strong><strong>Annual</strong> Financial Statements, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>received a final appropriation <strong>of</strong> R217,284 million. .Consistent with its mandate, <strong>the</strong> bulk <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong><strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>’s budget is committed to <strong>the</strong> compensation<strong>of</strong> staff, with <strong>the</strong> remainder primarily comprising <strong>of</strong>goods and services. The capital expenditure budgetedfor primarily pertains to information technologyhardware procurement, and key projects which wereimplemented in <strong>the</strong> year under review, namely, anupgrade <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Local Area Network (LAN) for <strong>the</strong><strong>Office</strong> to improve connectivity and <strong>the</strong> implementation<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> second phase <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> e-Cabinet project.1.3.4 organisational Transformation andDevelopmentThe <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> finalised an organisationalreview process and submitted a new organisationalstructure to <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> for approval in <strong>2010</strong>/2011.The structure was also submitted to <strong>the</strong> Minister<strong>of</strong> Public Service and Administration for commentas required by <strong>the</strong> legislation governing <strong>the</strong> publicservice. Unfortunately substantial delays have beenexperienced in <strong>the</strong> finalisation <strong>of</strong> this process, primarilydue to <strong>the</strong> initiation <strong>of</strong> a project by <strong>the</strong> Department <strong>of</strong>Public Service and Administration (DPSA) late in <strong>2010</strong>to develop a generic structure for all <strong>the</strong> provincial<strong>Office</strong>s <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>.1.3.5 ChallengesThe primary challenge for <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>in <strong>the</strong> period under review has been <strong>the</strong> delay <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>finalisation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> new organisational structure ashighlighted above. This delay has resulted in capacityconstraints in key areas, most specifically <strong>the</strong> <strong>Gauteng</strong>Planning Commission and <strong>the</strong> Strategic Partnershipsfunctions. In <strong>the</strong> main <strong>the</strong>se were overcome through<strong>the</strong> implementation <strong>of</strong> good systems and <strong>the</strong> skill andefficiency <strong>of</strong> <strong>of</strong>ficials working in <strong>the</strong>se programmes.More broadly, <strong>the</strong> ongoing challenges that havecharacterised this term <strong>of</strong> <strong>of</strong>fice continued to informcost-cutting and prioritisation exercises to ensuremaximum results within <strong>the</strong> allocation received by <strong>the</strong><strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>.1.3.6 ConclusionThe <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> has carried on in <strong>2010</strong>/2011where it left <strong>of</strong>f in 2009/<strong>2010</strong>, providing leadership,guidance and coordination to <strong>the</strong> functioning <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>GPG and for <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> in her role as head <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>Province. The gains that we have made this year willbe carried forward into <strong>the</strong> Medium-Term ExpenditureFramework (MTEF) and <strong>the</strong> outer years to ensure <strong>the</strong>implementation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> electoral mandate.The leadership <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> in providing a clearand consistent vision to guide and inspire <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong><strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> has been invaluable and I would liketo thank her for <strong>the</strong> opportunity to join her and herteam in <strong>the</strong>ir efforts to develop <strong>the</strong> <strong>Gauteng</strong> Province.I would also like to thank all staff in <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><strong>Premier</strong> for <strong>the</strong>ir warm welcome and support thisyear. This report is an overview <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> work <strong>of</strong> eachand every one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>m, and it could not have beenachieved without <strong>the</strong>ir wholehearted commitment toour common purpose.NOSIZWE NOKWE-MACAMODIRECTOR GENERALOFFICE OF THE PREMIERGAUTENG14<strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>

General review <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> state <strong>of</strong> financial affairsIn keeping with <strong>the</strong> new mandate <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Gauteng</strong> Provincial Government that was adopted in 2009, <strong>the</strong> mandate<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> continues to be:• Centralised strategic and spatial planning to achieve <strong>the</strong> objectives <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> new mandate.• Monitoring and evaluation to ensure improved service delivery and improved governance.• Streng<strong>the</strong>ning <strong>the</strong> cabinet system to assert <strong>the</strong> political authority <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> and <strong>the</strong> Executive Council at<strong>the</strong> centre <strong>of</strong> government.• Improved policy research and advisory services to support governance and monitoring and evaluation.• Facilitation <strong>of</strong> intergovernmental relations to ensure greater collaboration and alignment across all spheres <strong>of</strong>government.• Co-ordinating service delivery in support <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> new mandate.• Leading and facilitation efforts to prevent corruption and ensure state accountability and transparency.• Improving relations between government and its stakeholders at all levels and <strong>the</strong> development <strong>of</strong> partnershipsin line with strategic priorities.In implementing this mandate, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> has made significant progress in <strong>the</strong> year under review.This is in spite <strong>of</strong> some severe capacity challenges as a result <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> ongoing process to review <strong>the</strong> organisationalstructure <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong>. Begun in 2009, <strong>the</strong> process resulted in a new organisational structure which was approvedby <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>, however due to national processes to establish generic organisational structures for all <strong>Office</strong>s <strong>of</strong><strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>, <strong>the</strong> approval <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> structure has been delayed.The implementation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Outcomes-Based Approach, approved by Cabinet in <strong>2010</strong>, was a significant focus<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>2010</strong>/2011 financial year. Based on <strong>the</strong> eight adopted outcomes <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Gauteng</strong> Provincial Government(GPG), <strong>the</strong> development <strong>of</strong> integrated outcomes plans was facilitated and based on <strong>the</strong>se, an IntergovernmentalProgramme <strong>of</strong> Action (POA) for government was drafted and approved by <strong>the</strong> Executive Council (EXCO). ThisPOA is <strong>the</strong> foundation <strong>of</strong> government service delivery, focusing resources into priority areas and provides <strong>the</strong>framework for monitoring and evaluating service delivery. Monthly and quarterly reports on performance against<strong>the</strong> POA were drafted and submitted to EXCO. Two impact studies, an investigation into <strong>the</strong> impact <strong>of</strong> EarlyChildhood Education (ECD) programmes and a baseline study <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> 50 Poorest Wards were also conducted in<strong>the</strong> period under review. These studies, in conjunction with o<strong>the</strong>r research projects as such as <strong>the</strong> Organisationfor Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Territorial Review initiated in <strong>2010</strong> will inform futurepolicy decisions and programmes.The facilitation and management <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> GPG cabinet system, under <strong>the</strong> leadership <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>, is one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>core functions <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>. In addition to providing secretariat services to system, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> setsEXCO agendas based on <strong>the</strong> POA, analyses and provides commentary on documentation submitted to EXOand provides legal advisory services to EXCO. The e-Cabinet boardroom project, <strong>the</strong> first phase <strong>of</strong> which wascompleted in 2009/10, saw its second phase being initiated in <strong>2010</strong>/2011. This project, which has a multi-yearhorizon, will see <strong>the</strong> cabinet system fully automated. Fundamental to this has been <strong>the</strong> creation <strong>of</strong> a policy andlegislation database and also <strong>the</strong> development <strong>of</strong> electronic systems for document archiving and access.The Intergovernmental Relations (IGR) Framework approved by EXCO has been printed and circulated widely toensure that <strong>the</strong>re is broad understanding <strong>of</strong> how intergovernmental relations functions in <strong>the</strong> <strong>Gauteng</strong> Province.To give effect to this framework, regular <strong>Premier</strong>’s Co-ordinating Council (PCF) meetings have been held and<strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>71

REPORT OF THE AUDITOR - GENERALANNUAL REPORT <strong>2010</strong>/11TO THE GAUTENG PROVINCIAL LEGISLATURE ON VOTE NO. 1: THE OFFICE OF THEPREMIERREPORT ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSIntroduction1. I have audited <strong>the</strong> accompanying financial statements <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>, which comprise <strong>the</strong> appropriationstatement, <strong>the</strong> statement <strong>of</strong> financial position as at 31 March 2011, <strong>the</strong> statement <strong>of</strong> financial performance,statement <strong>of</strong> changes in net assets and cash flow statement for <strong>the</strong> year <strong>the</strong>n ended and a summary <strong>of</strong> significantaccounting policies and o<strong>the</strong>r explanatory information, as set out on pages 84 to 123Accounting <strong>of</strong>ficer’s responsibility for <strong>the</strong> financial statements2. The accounting <strong>of</strong>ficer is responsible for <strong>the</strong> preparation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>se financial statements in accordance with <strong>the</strong>Departmental Financial <strong>Report</strong>ing Framework prescribed by <strong>the</strong> National Treasury and <strong>the</strong> requirements <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>Public Finance Management Act, 1999 (Act No.1 <strong>of</strong> 1999) (PFMA) and for such internal control as managementdetermines necessary to enable <strong>the</strong> preparation <strong>of</strong> financial statements that are free from material misstatement,whe<strong>the</strong>r due to fraud or error.Auditor-General’s responsibility3. As required by section 188 <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Constitution <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Republic <strong>of</strong> South Africa, 1996, section 4 <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Public AuditAct, 2004 (Act No. 25 <strong>of</strong> 2004) (PAA) and section 40(2) <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Public Finance Management Act, 1999 (Act No.1<strong>of</strong> 1999), my responsibility is to express an opinion on <strong>the</strong>se financial statements based on my audit.4. I conducted my audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and General Notice 1111 <strong>of</strong> <strong>2010</strong>issued in Government Gazette 33872 <strong>of</strong> 15 December <strong>2010</strong>. Those standards require that I comply with ethicalrequirements and plan and perform <strong>the</strong> audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whe<strong>the</strong>r <strong>the</strong> financialstatements are free from material misstatement.5. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about <strong>the</strong> amounts and disclosures in <strong>the</strong>financial statements. The procedures selected depend on <strong>the</strong> auditor’s judgement, including <strong>the</strong> assessment <strong>of</strong><strong>the</strong> risks <strong>of</strong> material misstatement <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> financial statements, whe<strong>the</strong>r due to fraud or error. In making those riskassessments, <strong>the</strong> auditor considers internal control relevant to <strong>the</strong> entity’s preparation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> financial statements inorder to design audit procedures that are appropriate in <strong>the</strong> circumstances, but not for <strong>the</strong> purpose <strong>of</strong> expressingan opinion on <strong>the</strong> effectiveness <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating <strong>the</strong> appropriateness<strong>of</strong> accounting policies used and <strong>the</strong> reasonableness <strong>of</strong> accounting estimates made by management, as well asevaluating <strong>the</strong> overall presentation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> financial statements.6. I believe that <strong>the</strong> audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my auditopinion.Opinion7. In my opinion, <strong>the</strong> financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, <strong>the</strong> financial position <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>department <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> as at 31 March 2011, and its financial performance and cash flows for<strong>the</strong> year <strong>the</strong>n ended in accordance with <strong>the</strong> Departmental Financial <strong>Report</strong>ing Framework prescribed by NationalTreasury and <strong>the</strong> requirements <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Public Finance Management Act, 1999 (Act No. 1 <strong>of</strong> 1999).Emphasis <strong>of</strong> matter8.

My opinion is not modified in respect <strong>of</strong> this matter:80<strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>


ANNUAL REPORT <strong>2010</strong>/11Material underspending <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> budget9. As disclosed in <strong>the</strong> appropriation statement, <strong>the</strong> department has materially under spent <strong>the</strong> budget onAdministration, Institutional Support and Policy and Governance for an amount <strong>of</strong> R12 675 000, R5 871 000 andR5 744 000 respectively. As a consequence, <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> has not achieved its objectives as per <strong>the</strong>three programmes.Additional matters10. I draw attention to <strong>the</strong> matters below. My opinion is not modified in respect <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>se matters:Financial reporting framework11. The financial reporting framework prescribed by <strong>the</strong> National Treasury and applied by <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> isa compliance framework. Thus my opinion would have reflected that <strong>the</strong> financial statements had been properlyprepared instead <strong>of</strong> fairly presented as required by section 20(2)(a) <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> PAA, which requires me to express anopinion on <strong>the</strong> fair presentation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> financial statements <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>.Unaudited supplementary schedules12. The supplementary information set out on pages XX to XX does not form part <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> financial statements and ispresented as additional information. I have not audited <strong>the</strong>se schedules and, accordingly, I do not express anopinion <strong>the</strong>reon.REPORT ON OTHER LEGAL AND REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS13. In accordance with <strong>the</strong> PAA and in terms <strong>of</strong> General Notice 1111 <strong>of</strong> <strong>2010</strong>, issued in Government Gazette 33872<strong>of</strong> 15 December <strong>2010</strong>, I include below my findings on <strong>the</strong> annual performance report as set out on pages 29 to66 and material non-compliance with laws and regulations applicable to <strong>the</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong> .Predetermined objectives14. There were no material findings on <strong>the</strong> annual performance report.Compliance with laws and regulations15.

In accordance with <strong>the</strong> PAA and in terms <strong>of</strong> General Notice 1111 <strong>of</strong> <strong>2010</strong>, issued in Government Gazette 33872<strong>of</strong> 15 December <strong>2010</strong>, I considered internal control relevant to my audit, but not for <strong>the</strong> purpose <strong>of</strong> expressingan opinion on <strong>the</strong> effectiveness <strong>of</strong> internal control. There were no significant deficiencies in internal control thatresulted in a qualification <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> auditor’s opinion on <strong>the</strong> financial statements and findings on predeterminedobjectives and material non-compliance with laws and regulations.Johannesburg30 July 2011<strong>Office</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Premier</strong>81
