Statement on the Cabinet Meeting

Wednesday, 30 November 2022

A. ISSUES IN THE ENVIRONMENT

1. Quarterly Labour Force Survey (QLFS)
1.1. Cabinet welcomed the results of Statistics South Africa’s QLFS for the third quarter
of 2022, which indicated that 204 000 jobs were gained between the second and
third quarters of 2022.
1.2. The QLFS also revealed that the total number of persons employed in the third
quarter of 2022 was 15,8 million.
1.3. This means that the official unemployment rate decreased by 1,0 percentage point
from 33,9% in the second quarter to 32,9% in the third quarter of 2022. The
unemployment rate according to the expanded definition of unemployment also
decreased by 1,0 percentage point to 43,1% in the third quarter of 2022 compared to
the second quarter of 2022. While this increase may be viewed as a drop in the
ocean, it does show that the strategies to grow employment are starting to yield
positive results.
1.4. The largest jobs gain were recorded in manufacturing (123 000), followed by trade
(82 000), construction (46 000), transport (33 000), and community and social
services (27 000). Cabinet called on South Africans to continue to rally behind the

1
 country’s Economic Reconstruction and Recovery Plan (ERRP) to ensure that as a
country we keep the momentum of growing the economy and creating much-needed
jobs.
1.5. Cabinet acknowledges that the country has a long way to go and more work needs
to be done to address the challenge of unemployment in the country.

2. State Visit to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (UK)
2.1. Cabinet welcomed the historic Presidential State Visit to the UK that took place from
22 to 23 November 2022. His Excellency President Cyril Ramaphosa became the
first Head of State to be hosted by the British monarch, His Majesty King Charles III,
since his accession to the throne in September 2022.
2.2. A Royal State Visit is the highest honour bestowed on a country by the UK to further
promote bilateral relations and it also symbolises the importance the UK ascribes to
its relations with a particular country.
2.3. The Presidential State Visit, which marked a continuation of the strong bilateral ties
between South Africa and the UK, resulted in the launch of the next phase of the UK-
South Africa Infrastructure Partnership. The partnership supports South Africa’s
economic growth through major infrastructure developments and offers increased
access to UK companies in projects worth up to £5.37 billion over the next three
years.
2.4. The visit focused on upgrading trade and investment levels between the two
countries, and also on creating more opportunities in British markets for South
African goods and commodities. During the UK-SA Business Forum, numerous
business opportunities on offer were profiled to UK investors who pledged their
continued engagement with South Africa.
2.5. South Africa and the UK also signed Memorandums of Understanding on
Cooperation in Science and Innovation as well as Health Cooperation that would
focus on vaccine manufacturing, genome sequencing and climate change. 
2.6. Other outcomes from the visit included securing collaboration on infrastructure, clean
technology and renewable energy sources. These opportunities hold the potential to
unlock domestic trade, investment and boost job creation.

3. Tshwane Automotive Special Economic Zone (TASEZ)

2
3.1. Cabinet welcomed the production of the next generation Ford Ranger by Ford Motor
Company of South Africa (FMCSA), which saw a capital investment of R15.8 billion.
3.2. This resulted in all 10 auto component manufacturing companies located in the
TASEZ officially entering into full operation. The investment by the component
manufacturers amounted to R3.62 billion and created 1 259 permanent jobs
benefiting youth (76%) and women (32%).
3.3. TASEZ was established as a special-purpose vehicle production zone with a
mandate to create employment opportunities and promote economic participation for
small, medium and micro enterprises in the region. Its first phase of development
was aimed at creating additional infrastructure and capacity within the FMCSA
supply chain to support South Africa to be one of the only three hubs in the world to
produce the next-generation Ford Ranger.

4. National Digital and Future Skills Conference

4.1. Cabinet welcomed the outcomes of the National Digital and Future Skills Conference
held in Umhlanga, KwaZulu-Natal from 22 to 23 November 2022, to strengthen our
nation’s advances in the area of digital and future skills in South Africa.
4.2. Hosted by the Department of Communications and Digital Technologies (DCDT) in
partnership with the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ),
the conference aimed to, among others, strengthen partnerships in the area of digital
and future skills in South Africa, create and stimulate interest in digital and future
skills, and explore digital skills training opportunities available for youth presented by
the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
4.3. The conference forged partnerships between government, business, civil society,
international development organisations and youth organisations to take our nation
forward into the digital era.

5. New Thuthuzela Care Centre in Limpopo

5.1. Cabinet welcomed the opening of the Thuthuzela Care Centre in the Dilokong
Hospital at Dilokong Village in Driekop, Limpopo on Tuesday, 22 November 2022.
The one-stop facility offers services in support of victims of gender-based violence
and femicide (GBVF) and sexual crimes.

3
5.2. The centre is the 62nd to be opened across the country and fulfils the commitment
government made at the 2018 Presidential Summit Against GBVF to build more of
such centres.
6. Auditor-General’s (AG) 2021/22 Consolidated General Report
6.1. Cabinet welcomed the 2021/22 Public Finance Management Act audit outcomes of
the national and provincial government, which were released by AG Tsakani
Maluleke on Wednesday, 23 November 2022 under the theme: “A culture of
accountability will improve service delivery”.
6.2. Cabinet noted the gradual upward trend in the audit outcomes of national and
provincial government but expressed concern that key service delivery portfolios
continued to receive poor outcomes.
6.3. Based on the completed audits of 160 departments, 47 departments had improved
and 12 had regressed. Similarly, of the 238 public entities with completed audits, 67
had improved and 34 had regressed.
6.4. Cabinet affirmed government’s commitment to taking corrective measures to
address the root causes that lead to poor audit outcomes and remove weaknesses
to achieve clean audits.

7. Safer Festive Season campaign

7.1. Government recently launched the 2022 Safer Festive Season campaign under the
theme: “More boots on the ground towards enhanced police visibility.”
7.2. To ensure the well-being and safety of all residents and tourists in our country during
the festive season and beyond, heightened police visibility will include intensified and
integrated crime-prevention and crime-combating operations by the South African
Police Service and other law-enforcement agencies. Cabinet calls on all people to
work with law-enforcement authorities to keep our communities safe.
7.3. As traffic volumes on our national roads increase, all road users are urged to be
vigilant, and to obey traffic rules and regulations such as speed limits. Do not drive
while under the influence of alcohol, always wear your seatbelt, keep a safe following
distance and stop at a safe place to rest after at least every three hours of driving.
Be courteous to other road users so that we can all reach our destinations safely.
7.4. Cabinet urges everyone to take extra care this festive season to ensure their own
safety and that of others, especially children, who must be supervised at all times. By

4
 exercising extreme care and responsible behaviour, we can guarantee an enjoyable
time of celebration with family and friends.

8. South Africa Green Hydrogen Summit (SAGHS)

8.1. Cabinet welcomed the successful conclusion of the country’s inaugural SAGHS 2022
held in Cape Town from 28 to 30 November 2022, which showcased our nation’s
offerings as a world-class green hydrogen production hub.
8.2. In creating the environment for the green hydrogen sector to flourish, government
has developed a Hydrogen SA Strategy that taps into our nation’s endowment of
renewable energy and platinum, a catalyst in the hydrogen electrolysis process,
to position South Africa as a global leader in this new market.
8.3. The green hydrogen economy is part of our work under the ERRP to explore new
sources of economic growth that have the potential to revolutionise our economy and
create new jobs.

9. Launch of the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Institute of South Africa

9.1. Cabinet welcomed the collaboration between the DCDT, Tshwane University of
Technology and the University of Johannesburg that resulted in the launch of the AI
Institute of South at the Johannesburg Business School on Wednesday, 30
November 2022.
9.2. The first-of-its-kind institute ushers a new era in South Africa’s digital transformation
efforts. It will stimulate economic growth, address unemployment and create a
positive social impact. The AI Institute will expand the teaching of robotics and
coding currently being offered in public schools.
9.3. The institute is designed to ensure that government academia and industry work
together in a unique partnership to apply their collective knowledge, expertise and
experience to implement coordinated solutions to some of South Africa and Africa’s
most critical and long-standing challenges, and to take the continent forward.
9.4. Government’s focus on digital skills includes creating platforms to support and
promote the ability of youth, and small and medium enterprises, in particular start-
ups, to develop digital content.

5
 B. CABINET DECISIONS
1. Research Report on the economic costs of disability for children with
disabilities and persons with physical disabilities in South Africa
1.1. Cabinet considered and approved the Research Report that was commissioned by
the Department for Women, Youth and Persons with Disabilities (DWYPD), in
partnership with the United Nations (UN) Development Programme (UNDP). The
research provides information on disability-related costs on households with children
with disabilities and adults with physical disabilities.
1.2. The research insights provide evidence of cost estimates for, among others, the
determination of social-security benefits subsidisation of services for persons with
disabilities. This report complements the study also done by the UNDP between
2013 and 2015 on elements of the financial and economic costs of disability
households in South Africa. The report will be published after it has been gazetted.

2. Rapid Evaluation of the implementation of government policy on preferential

public procurement towards women, youth and persons with disabilities
2.1. Cabinet received an evaluation report that assessed the compliance rate by national
and provincial departments on the preferential procurement application on
businesses owned by women, youth and persons with disabilities. The evaluation
covered the period from 2018 to 2021.
2.2. Data was collected from National Treasury’s Central Supplier Database (CSD) and
respondents from departments to the questionnaires sent to them. The data did not,
however, capture information from all the departments, but was sufficient enough to
guide Cabinet on areas that need strengthening to ensure full compliance.
2.3. Cabinet approved all the intervention recommendations that will ensure government
complies with the 40% procurement to women in particular. Some of the
recommendations include the enhancement of the CSD software, and the training
and awareness raising of accounting officers and Supply Chain Management
practitioners in departments. The full report will be posted on the DWYPD’s website:
www.dwypd.gov.za.

6
 3. Science, Technology and Innovation (STI) Decadal Plan 2022
3.1. Cabinet approved the 2022 STI Decadal Plan, which serves as an implementation
guide of the 2019 White Paper on STI. Cabinet approved the draft plan in March
2021 and has since been enriched through further consultation with relevant
stakeholders.
3.2. The plan has five thematic focus areas: (1) modernisation of agricultural,
manufacturing and mining sectors; (2) exploitation of new sources of growth,
particularly the digital and circular economy; (3) large research and innovation
programmes in the areas of health and energy; (4) utilising STI to support a capable
state and (5) addressing three societal grand challenges, namely climate change and
environmental sustainability, the future of education, skills development and work,
and the future of society.
3.3. The first Decadal Plan for 2008-2018, together with the 2002 National Research and
Development Strategy, served as the basis of the current Decadal Plan. These plans
advance the government’s approach to innovation in South Africa. The document will
be made public through the Department of Science and Innovation’s (DSI) website:
www.dst.gov.za.

4. National Strategy and Risk Assessment on Anti-Money Laundering, Counter

Financing of Terrorism and Counter Financing of Proliferation (AML/CFT/CPF)
4.1. Cabinet approved the country’s National Strategy on AML/CFT/CPF, together with
the National Risk Assessment. The strategy was developed as a response to the risk
assessment prepared by all the relevant security and finance agencies.
4.2. The operationalisation of this strategy – which provides three high-level goals with 13
strategic objectives – will involve law-enforcement agencies, intelligence agencies,
financial and non-financial institutions, and private-sector representatives, among
others.
4.3. The implementation of the strategy will ensure the country strengthens its financial
systems to support economic growth interventions by reducing levels of finance-
related crimes. The strategy also responds to some of the 40 recommendations

7
 made after South Africa was assessed by the Financial Action Task Force, an
intergovernmental policymaking body that strives to combat terrorist financing and
money laundering globally. The summarised two reports will be published on
National Treasury’s website: www.treasury.gov.za.

5. Green Hydrogen Commercialisation Strategy (GHCS)

5.1. Cabinet approved the publication of the GHCS for public comments. The strategy is
aimed at ensuring that the country takes full advantage of the opportunities provided
by green industrialisation.
5.2. The GHCS will ensure South Africa becomes a major producer and exporter of
green hydrogen. It contributes towards economic growth and supports the country’s
just transition interventions towards the reduction of carbon emissions.
5.3. South Africa already has the Hydrogen Strategy and the Hydrogen Society Roadmap
adopted by Cabinet in 2021. The rapidly growing green hydrogen market presents
huge opportunities for South Africa.

6. State Litigation Strategy for 2021 – 2026

6.1. Cabinet approved the State Litigation Strategy for 2021 – 2026. The strategy seeks
to drive the transformation of the legal profession in a systematic manner. It guides
on how the State will distribute legal work to legal practitioners; manage the costs of
the litigation; guides the management of stakeholders; provides for the maximisation
of the use of technology and systems.
6.2. The strategy also addresses the development of human capacity management and
development. It will be applicable to litigation services of the State from all spheres of
government.
6.3. Cabinet also approved the two additional policies to support the implementation of
this strategy. The Briefing and Outsourcing of State Legal work Policy will introduce
an element of fairness and drive the transformational allocation of litigation services
that cannot be performed internally. The Initiating, Defending and Opposing of
Matters Policy will provide clarity on processes to be followed by client departments
and the Office of Solicitor-General.
6.4. The two policies – together with the other policies that were approved by Cabinet in
November 2021 and the Legal Sector Code – will support the implementation of this

8
 strategy. These documents will ensure a meaningful transformational intervention in
the legal sector and also ensure the economies of scale in litigation matters that
involve the State.

7. Management of State Litigation Contingent Liability Policy

7.1. Cabinet approved the State Litigation Contingent Liability Policy, which provides
mechanisms to manage state litigation contingent liability. It provides for the creation
of a central database and the reporting mechanism on the following-up of the cases
in this database.
7.2. The policy provides for the mechanism to close dormant case files that were
resulting in unreliable contingent liability figures in respect of accountability.

C. BILLS
1. National Sport and Recreation Amendment Bill of 2022
1.1. Cabinet approved the submission of the National Sport and Recreation Amendment
Bill of 2022 to Parliament for further processing. The Bill amends the National Sport
and Recreation Act, of 1998 (Act 110 of 1998). The Bill has already been published
for public consultation.
1.2. The Bill also amends certain definitions and amongst other interventions, it proposes
the establishment of the Sports Arbitration Tribunal to resolve disputes between
sport or recreation bodies. It outlines procedures to be followed for bidding for
international events. The proposed amendments also empower the Minister of Sport,
Arts and Culture to make regulations for vulnerable groups to participate in sport and
be protected from any form of sexual abuse or exploitation.

2. South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) Bill of 2022

2.1. Cabinet approved the submission to Parliament of the SABC Bill of 2022 for
processing. The Bill was published for public comment in June 2021. Once the Bill is
passed into law by Parliament, the current Broadcasting Act, 1999 (Act 4 of 1999)
will be repealed.
2.2. The Bill amongst others proposes reducing the size of non-executive Board
members from 12 to 11 and the executive members from three to two. It revised the
governance structure and funding model of the SABC.

9
3. Repeal of the Transkeian Penal Code Bill of 2022
3.1. Cabinet approved the submission to Parliament of the Repeal of the Transkeian
Penal Code Bill of 2022 for further processing. The Bill repeals the Transkeian Penal
Code, 1983 (Act 9 of 1983) which codified criminal law in the former Transkei (now
Eastern Cape).
3.2. The proposed Bill extends the current application of common laws to the former
Republic of Transkei in line with our unitary system of the country’s judicial system.
3.3. The Transkeian Penal Code is in conflict with the current common criminal law that
regulates the same subject matter in different parts of the country. This repeal will
remove the continued existence of apartheid-era legislation in the areas that were
formerly known as the Republic of Transkei and provide the transitional
arrangements on matters dealt with by this code.

4. Constitution Eighteenth Amendment Bill of 2022

4.1. Cabinet approved the submission of the Constitution Eighteenth Amendment Bill of
2022 to Parliament for further processing. The Bill amends Section 6 of the
Constitution of the Republic of South Africa of 1996 to recognise South African Sign
Language as one of the official languages.
4.2. In May 2022, Cabinet approved the publication and giving of notice to this Bill, which
together with the notice were subsequently gazetted in July 2022.

5. Criminal Law (Sexual Offences and Related Matters) Amendment Bill of 2022
5.1. Cabinet approved the publishing of this Bill for public comments. It repeals the
Sexual Offences Act (previously Immorality Act), 1957 (Act 23 of 1957). It also
repeals Section 11 of the Criminal Law (Sexual Offenses and Related Matters)
Amendment Act, 2007 (Act 32 of 2007) to decriminalise the sale and purchase of
adult sexual services.
5.2. The proposals of this Bill respond to the list of interventions proposed in Pillar 3
(Protection, Safety and Justice) of the National Strategic Plan on GBVF, which
enjoins the criminal justice system to provide protection, safety and justice for
survivors of GBVF, and to effectively hold perpetrators accountable for their actions.
Once passed into law, it will amongst others protect sex workers against abuse and
exploitation.
10
6. South African Post Office (SAPO) Amendment Bill
6.1. Cabinet approved the submission of the SAPO Amendment Bill to Parliament for
further processing. The Bill, which was approved for public consultation early this
year, amends the SAPO Act, 2011 (Act 22 of 2011).
6.2. The proposed amendments seek to enable the SAPO to adapt to the technological
developments in the courier-service space and expand its mandate. The changes
are in line with the National Integrated Information and Communications Technology
Policy White Paper of 2016.

D. UPCOMING EVENTS
1. 2022 World Science Forum (WSF)
1.1. South Africa will, through the DSI, host the WSF at the Cape Town International
Convention Centre Cape from 6 to 9 December 2022 under the theme: “Science for
Social Justice”.
1.2. The forum is one of the leading global platforms that encourage dialogue on the role
science should play in society. It is an initiative of global science organisations that
also include the UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation.
1.3. Renowned thought leaders will be debating various topics that include science for
human dignity; science for climate justice, science diplomacy for multilateralism, and
science for Africa and the world.

2. World AIDS Day

2.1. South Africa will join the world in observing and participating in activities to mark the
annual World AIDS Day on 1 December 2022 under the theme: “Equalise and
Integrate to End AIDS”. The national commemoration event that will be held at the
Dr Petrus Molemela Stadium in Bloemfontein in the Free State will be used to remind
everyone to be responsible by getting to know their health status so as to make
informed life decisions.

11
2.2. The commemoration comes as South Africa prepares to begin piloting the injectable
pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) early next year, which is recommended by the
World Health Organisation. The PrEP injection, to be taken every other month, could
prevent as many as 52 000 new HIV infections.

3. Reconciliation Day
3.1. On Friday, 16 December 2022, the nation will celebrate Reconciliation Day to
reaffirm our commitment to unity and nation-building. Each year we have an
opportunity to reach out to one another to deal with our past, reconcile and build a
new nation going forward.
3.2. Our journey since the advent of freedom and democracy in 1994 has decisively
shown that we are stronger as a nation when we are united. Our goal as South
Africans should be to promote inclusive nation-building and social cohesion.
3.3. Together we can build a better tomorrow for all by striving to ensure a nation that
encourages dialogue, fosters social cohesion, embraces nation-building and
celebrates its diverse culture.
3.4. Cabinet calls on everyone to work together as a nation, and harness our collective
strengths to build a united and prosperous South Africa.

4. National Active Ageing Programme

4.1. The Department of Social Development will host the National Active Ageing
Programme in Germiston, Gauteng from 5 to 7 December 2022. The programme
brings all nine provinces together and is aimed at promoting the independent and
healthy lifestyle of older persons to ensure that they actively participate in their
communities.
4.2. The National Active Ageing Programme will open with a national dialogue to allow
older persons to engage on pertinent matters affecting them. This will be followed by
the Golden Games where older persons will showcase their athletic abilities.
4.3. The Older Persons Act, 2006 (Act 13 of 2006) emphasises the importance of the
protection and promotion of the rights, dignity, status, integrity, safety, security and
well-being of older persons. In this regard, Cabinet calls upon all communities to
care, respect and support older persons, especially against abuse, ill-treatment,
neglect and GBV.
