Macford W. Sibandze) 03/2023 To move that the Honourable Minister for Finance consider transferring all Factory Shells to the Eswatini Investment Promotion Authority (EIPA) for the following reasons, inter alia: (1) Government have built up a healthy stock of shells which are currently operated and maintained by EIPA i.e., rent collection, servicing and personnel etc.
even though their ownership remains with the Ministry of Finance; (2) Currently, they cannot sue rental defaulters or even get judgement against those owing them because they lack ownership of the Factory Shells; (3) EIPA will be self-funding and will have the financial muscle through this stock of Factory Shells and would be able to borrow funds from financial institutions, internally or externally, at concessional rates to further develop new factory shells and rehabilitate the existing ones without government subvention; (4) Investment promotion agencies in the Southern Africa Region (Mpumalanga Economic Growth Agency) own factories and properties in their own name and allowing EIPA to own assets places them at par with the counterparts and ensure they can compete in the chase to secure investors.
The Honourable Minister for Finance should appraise the House on progress that would have been made within twenty one (21) days of passing of this motion.
