  4. 2. BACKGROUND FOR ASSET REGISTER • Prior 1994, there was not comprehensive computer-based register of state-owned immovable assets. • In 1995 -1999 Dpw commenced with the compilation of a comprehensive computer-based inventory of immovable assets under the control of both National and Provincial Governments. The information that was gathered included: • Physical address of properties; • Cadastral description and extent of land parcels; • Utilisation and users of properties; • Zoning and potential use of properties 2

  5. BACKGROUND FOR ASSET REGISTER….cont • In March 2008, DPW completed the Asset Register Enhancement Programme (AREP) • The scope of the project focused on 33 555 immovable assets focusing on : • Linking of land parcels with improvements; • Measuring floor areas of buildings where it was not included • Establishing use and identity of occupants; • Capturing servitude rights over selected state properties; and • Capturing photographs, drawings and footprints of improvements • for the selected properties 3

  6. BACKGROUND FOR ASSET REGISTER….cont • The Immovable Asset Register is an accounting tool that serves as a database containing all the physical, financial and legal information regarding the properties and their tenants. • Additionally, AR informs Asset and Property Management decisions and records the resultant transactions within the various Public Works Departments. • The iE-Works initiative is aimed at providing a common electronic platform for the National and Provincial Governments’ property portfolios and engagements with Provincial Public Works departments is ongoing. 4

  7. 3. STATUS REPORT – ASSET REGISTER DPW reported 108 562 properties (land and buildings/structures) in the Annual Financial Statements for 2009/2010 instead of 239 594 properties reported in 1999. The variance between the numbers of properties is as a result of the following: • Devolution of properties to Provinces in 2008 as agreed with National Treasury; • Exclusion of land under the custodianship of the Department of Rural Development & Land Reform (DRDLR); • Alignment with accounting reporting requirements and the continuous update of data in the Asset Register; and • Information on State-owned buildings was until 2009/10 extracted at tenancy (unit) level, whereas the buildings information for the 2009/10 report was extracted at property level. 5

  13. Amnesty Call (Operation Bring Back) • Call Centre is operational, however there have been no calls received from the public as a result of lack of awareness campaign and intensified identification of State Immovable Assets that are presumed to be unaccounted for. • A engagement with SALGA took place on how municipalities can assist in spreading the message to promote public participation. • The Department will extend the duration of Amnesty initiative with another six months to ensure that the message is spread widely to promote public participation. 11

Determine the scope for achieving completeness, accuracy and compliance to GIAMA, PFMA and GRAP. Develop comprehensive terms of reference for the enhancement of the Immovable AR by the Secondary Service Provider (SSP) to be appointed by DPW. Oversee the Amnesty Initiative “Operation Bring Back” (OBB). The scope of work for the SSP must include the execution and implementation of OBB campaign. 12
