  1. SELECT COMMITTEE PRESENTATION ON THE REVITALIZATION OF DISTRESSED MINING TOWNS PROGRAMME ACTING DIRECTOR-GENERAL: MR M TSHANAGANA 09 JUNE 2015 CONFIDENTIAL

  2. Presentation Outline • INTRODUCTION • BACKGROUND • INTER MINISTERIAL COMMITTEE – MANDATE • INTER MINISTERIAL COMMITTEE – DEPARTMENTS • SCOPE OF WORK • PROGRESS TO DATE • FUNDING ARRANGEMENTS • PROJECTS LISTED IN THE 2015/16 PROVINCIAL BUSINESS PLANS • RECOMMENDATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS

  3. Introduction - Context • Mining towns are characterised by wide-scale informal settlements • Informal settlements are often located on tribal or privately owned land • Miners do not qualify for government’s housing subsidy programmes • Many mining companies have reached agreements with unions to pay a living out allowance – largely not used for decent housing and has led to many miners living in terrible conditions in backyards/informal settlements • High levels of indebtedness exist amongst miners

  4. Introduction - Context • Informal Settlement Upgrading projects are typically multi-year projects • There is a need to accommodate a diverse range of residents in the mining townsrequiring a diverse range of housing options/solutions (upgrading of informal settlements, hostel upgrade, private rental/ownership, social housing, partially and fully subsidised housing) • Overall objective of the intervention = “Transformation of mining towns through creation of sustainable human settlements”

  5. Background • SOCIAL ACCORD: In October 2012 the President led the signing of a Social Accord (not confined to the mining industry) with Government, Business and Labour, referred to as the Special Presidential Package (SPP) which made a number of commitments : • Part 1: Restoring confidence in labour market institutions, addressing income inequalities and building social cohesion • Part 2:Action to combat violence and lawlessness • Part 3:Addressing socio-economic challenges • FRAMEWORK AGREEMENT: In July 2013 the Deputy President facilitated development of the Framework Agreement for a Sustainable Mining Industry, as mandated by the President. The Stakeholders are: • Government • Labour • Business: Chamber of Mines and South African Mining Development Association

  6. Background • An action plan was developed and consists of the following 5 objectives : • Ensuring the rule of law, peace and stability (SAPS; Justice & Corrections supported by the Department of Security Services) • Strengthening labour relations (Department of Labour, supported by the Department of Mineral Resources) • Improving living and working conditions of mineworkers (Department of Labour supported by the Departments of: Human Settlements, Health, Social Development, Economic Development, Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs) • Providing short to medium term measures to support growth and stability (Department of Mineral Resources) • Identifying long-term measures to support growth and stability (Department of Mineral Resources supported by Department of Trade and Industry and National Treasury) • As per the June 2014 SONA, the Framework Agreement is now led by the President

  7. IMC: Revitalization Of Distressed Mining Communities • In 2012, an Inter Ministerial Committee for the Revitalisation of Distressed Mining Communities was established to address Part 3 of the Social Accord (SPP): Addressing socio-economic challenges in mining districts and their labour sending areas. The IMC has focused on: • Integrated and sustainable human settlements, led by the Department of Human Settlements (supported by its agencies, e.g. NHFC, HDA, SHRA, NURCHA) • Improved socio-economic conditions, led by Departments of: Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs, Rural Development and Land Reform (supported by Departments of: Trade and Industry, Economic Development, National Treasury, and DBSA, SALGA, IDC and MISA) • Improved working conditions of mine workers led by Department of Labour • Decent living conditions for mine workers and meaningful contribution to the development trajectory of mining towns and labour sending areas, led by DMR

  8. IMC: Revitalization Of Distressed Mining Communities

  9. Scope: 15 Towns for the revitalisation of distressed mining communities Fifteen mining areas in five provinces and their associated labour sending areas have been prioritised for the revitalisation of distressed mining communities

  10. Scope: Twelve priority labour sending areas for the revitalisation of distressed mining communities • Twelve labour sending areas in two provinces have been prioritised for the revitalisation of distressed mining communities

  11. PROGRESS: PLANNING FOR INFORMAL SETTLEMENT UPGRADING (SPP)

  12. Progress: Planning for Informal Settlement Upgrading (SPP) Based on the rapid assessment informal settlements are categorised as follows: A: Full Upgrading = Rapid Formalisation, full services. B 1: Interim basic services = Provision of interim services leading to eventual formalisation B 2: Emergency basic services = Provision of emergency basic services BUT leading to eventual relocation C: Rapid relocation to a site which is already available or imminently available 104 informal settlements will require re-location and cannot be upgraded in-situ

  13. Progress: Planning For Informal Settlement Upgrading (SPP) There is a strong correlation between the no. of households living in informal settlements & the no. of employees on LOA in the SPP municipalities.
