  16. Sector Specific Guide – requirements for 2013/14 • Un-surveyed land to be disclosed by Department of Rural Development and Land Reform (DRDLR) • From 1/4/2013 onwards, once the custodian has confirmed that the registered land parcel is theirs the custodian will be required to reflect these in their IAR and AFS (vested or not vested) • From 1/4/2013, once the custodian has received SG diagram from DRDLR (Chief Surveyor General -CSG), the custodian will be required to reflect these surveyed not registered land parcels in their IAR and AFS • Where it is not clear or where SG diagram is received after 30 September each year, the land parcel will be disclosed by DRDLR in their IAR and AFS • National: SDF’s All facilities used by the national government located on un-surveyed land or surveyed but unregistered land incl former TBVC States and Self Governing Territories and state land in the former RSA (pre April1994); or governed by KZN Ingonyama Trust Act; should now be disclosed by the National Department of Public Works. • Provinces: SDF’s All facilities used by the provincial government located on un-surveyed land or land governed by the KwaZulu-Natal Ingonyama Trust Amendment Act (pre 24 April 1994) • All properties where agreement of custodianship had been reached and a transfer in compliance with Section 42 (PFMA) had been received must be disclosed by the respective custodian. • The Sector Specific Guide is in the process of being reviewed in conjunction with the provinces.

  21. Provincial reporting template – sample extract

  22. 6. Allocation of Custodianship

  23. Letters to all provinces to confirm custodianship have been sent out. All the Provinces have responded Custodian summary Confirmed Outstanding National custodians Provincial DPW – Cabinet resolution dated 13/06/2007 Provincial Housing – Act 4 of 2001, Housing Amendment Act ** There is a need to define and confirm the accounting treatment (control) in each province given the current legislative environment

  24. 7. Extension Principles of GIAMA to Local Government

  25. Fundamentals of GIAMA: National/Provincial vs. Local Government • GIAMA provides a framework of basic principles in accordance with which national and provincial departments must manage the immovable assets that they utilise or control in executing their mandates. • GIAMA is structured around the following building blocks – A) Role-players involved in the acquisition, operation and disposal (custodians) and the utilisation (users) of the State’s immovable assets; and B) Management processes within government. • Whilst the management of all spheres of government stem from the same fundamental principles, the role-players involved in immovable asset management and the strategic management processes of local government differ significantly from national and provincial government.

  26. National/Provincial vs. Local Government A) Role-players: National & Provincial Government • Users: Departments who utilise immovable assets in the performance of their functions. Required to compile annual user asset management plan (U-AMP). • Custodians: Departments who perform “caretaker” functions in relation to immovable assets. Required to (1) provide information on immovable assets allocated to users, to inform compilation of U-AMPs; and (2) compile annual custodian asset management plan (C-AMP). A) Role-players: Local Government • No standard institutional delineation between users and custodians of immovable assets. • No separate accounting officers in various departments within a Municipality.

  27. National/Provincial vs. Local Government (Contd…) B) Management Processes: National & Provincial Government • National / Provincial Departments (both users and custodians) are obliged to compile annual immovable asset management plans as part of their annual strategic planning process. • User and Custodian Asset Management Plans must be submitted to relevant Treasury to inform annual budget allocations. B) Management Processes: Local Government • In terms of Municipal Systems Act, 2000 a Municipality is obliged to develop an Integrated Development Plan (IDP) at least every 5 years, which serves as its principal “strategic management planning instrument”. • Municipalities are required to annually review their IDP and this should inform their annual budget.

  28. National/Provincial vs. Local Government (Contd…) • Municipalities are governed by specific body of legislation, of which the Local Government: Municipal Systems Act, 2000 (MSA) and the Municipal Finance Management Act, 2003 (MFMA) are most relevant to immovable asset management - • The principal strategic planning document of a Municipality is its Integrated Development Plan (IDP). • The MSA prescribes a specific process for the compilation of IDPs, which must also be aligned with provincial development plans and national priorities. • The MSA also prescribes comprehensive consultation requirements in relation to the compilation of IDPs.

  29. National/Provincial vs Local Government (Contd…) • An IDP is an inclusive strategic plan guiding all development within a Municipality. In terms of the existing regulatory framework, an IDP may, as part of its financial strategy, contain an asset management strategy. • The shortcomings in the existing IDP process, however, are that – • it does not detail a specific immovable asset management planning process; and • it does not make immovable asset management mandatory, as is the case in GIAMA.

  30. Current position: Extension of structured Immovable Asset Management to Municipalities • Due to key differences in the legal framework and organisational structure of local government compared to national and provincial government, it would be problematic to incorporate Local Government into the existing legislation (GIAMA) rendering it very convoluted. • DPW therefore holds the view that a different approach would be advisable to extend the principles of GIAMA to local government - Alternative 1: The requirements for immovable asset management could be incorporated in (a) separate set of regulations issued in terms of the Municipal Systems Act; or (b) amendment to the existing Local Government: Municipal Planning and Performance Management Regulations, 2001 issued in terms of that Act.

  31. Current position: Extension of structured Immovable Asset Management to Municipalities (Contd…) Alternative 2: Specific legislation could be developed, based on the requirements, organisational structure and existing legal framework governing municipalities. • DPW has renewed discussions with the Department of Cooperative Governance regarding the optimal approach and timeline to extend the principles of GIAMA to local government. The objective is to reach agreement on specific objectives commencing in 2014/15.

  32. 8. Auditor General Response on National DPW IAR submission for the year ending 2012/2013

  33. AG Opinion on DPW IAR 2012/2013 Unqualified Qualified

  34. AG Opinion on DPW IAR 2012/2013…cont • " The immovable asset disclosure note is not accurately valued to the effect that an amount of R664 million has been included – relating to renovation and refurbishment costs. The department was unable to establish which portion of the amount in question should have been capitalized and failed to allocate the R664 million to specific individual assets, thus resulting in the inability to verify the fair presentation with regards to valuation of immovable assets." AG • DPW IAR has been qualified on work-in-progress (valuation).

  35. AG Opinion on DPW IAR 2012/2013…cont • In order to address the valuation assertion in the DPW IAR for 2013/2014 the following will take place with the effect from 1 April 2014; • Fair Value model will be applied to all properties and components (as required by GRAP) • Capitalization policy will be applied to all work- in- progress amounts
