Risks and Mitigation Actions
Actual
Achievement
Two policies No policies. Due to the
priority of work and
insufficient staff, the target
was not met. The Subdivision
Counter-Intelligence has
started a restructuring process
to ensure that it is structured
correctly and to improve
its efficiency and service
delivery. It is expected that the
structures will be completed
with Project MOSOLA in
the next financial year (FY
2008/09).
310 learners on 18 courses 192 learners on seven
courses. The lack of qualified
instructors resulted in
fewer courses that could be
presented.
Details of the Defence Intelligence Programme’s risks and mitigation actions are reflected in Table 8.2.
Table 8.2 Defence Intelligence: Risks and Mitigation Actions for FY 2007/08
Risk Mitigation Action Actual Achievement
Loss of skilled personnel and the staffing
of posts with intelligence-qualified
personnel
The collection environment is challenged
by technological advances that require
expensive solutions
The poor and deteriorating condition of
the Defence Intelligence Headquarters
building will remain a challenge until
Defence Intelligence is relocated
In order to retain skills, a workgroup
has been appointed by Chief HR to
investigate the viability of an intelligence
dispensation as well as to investigate the
salary disparities between the different
intelligence organisations, as instructed
by National Treasury
Funds were made available by the
National Treasury to alleviate the
problem
Defence Intelligence was involved in the
preparation for a PPP process to work
towards a new headquarters building
The planned new dispensation was not
achieved in the current financial year
and the work will continue in the new
financial year.
The project was stalled on the instruction
of MOD.
The current PPP process was halted
and the process for a new headquarters
building will start over.
