Introduced an Interim Organisational Structure in which the regulatory programmes report directly to Council as opposed to the Chief Executive Officer.

  12. Other Council interventions The 8 Strategic Goals of 2012/13 have been re-clustered into 5 Goals for 2013/14 reducing the number of Strategic Targets from 43 to 26; and A Consultant to facilitate the organisational realignment process has commenced in the new financial year.

  27. Linking Performance with Budget (2) • On Projects and CAPEX actual expenditure was 71% less than budget • this under expenditure is attributed to unspent funds earmarked for the relocation of the Head Office and procurement challenges relating to the broadcasting and postal services equipment • Other contributing factors for the slow spending relates to the procurement of the spectrum management software

  28. Report of the Auditor-General (1) Expenditure management • the identification of fruitless and wasteful expenditure R3 671 279 has increased compared to the previous year’s restated amount of R189 292 • This can be attributed to fruitless and wasteful expenditure of R2 789 906 relating to prior years which was only identified in the current year. • The process of taking corrective measures for these amounts has been embarked upon. • Similarly, irregular expenditure of R4 153 874 has increased compared to the previous year’s amount of R538 433. • Of this irregular expenditure of R1 304 108 relates to prior periods identified in the current year. • The details of fruitless, wasteful and irregular expenditure are contained in the notes to the annual financial statements.

  29. Report of the Auditor-General (2) Internal audit • The internal audit did not evaluate and develop recommendations on the effectiveness and efficiency of controls throughout the year. • The institution did not ensure that there was an adequately functioning internal audit unit that identified internal control deficiencies and recommended corrective action effectively throughout the year

  30. Report of the Auditor-General (3) Investigations • The investigation was initiated based on allegations of possible fraudulent activities by the supply chain manager. • The supply chain manager was suspended and subsequently charged with alleged misconduct and disciplinary proceedings were instituted. • The employee tendered his resignation with immediate effect during the disciplinary hearing and the disciplinary process was therefore terminated. • ICASA had an obligation, due to the seriousness of the charges and in terms of ICASA’s Fraud and Prevention Policy, to formally report the internal investigation to the Hawks in terms of section 34(3)(a) of the Prevention and Combating of Corrupt Activities Act, 2004 (Act No 12 of 2004). • The Hawks are currently investigating a number of cases within the Supply Chain Management Unit.

Legal Matters Litigations • 1 settlement agreement was reached on Capital Debt; ICASA has not concluded on the interest due on the debt; • 4 allocations for a trial date is still to be issued; • 1 awaiting withdrawal; and • 1 matter for re-instatement for hearing. • CCC Matters • 11 cases; 1 pending, 2 postponed, 3 settled, 3 warnings issued and 2 for ICASA to review its process.
