Purpose The purpose of this brief is to provide Members of Parliament (MPs), specifically the Finance and Appropriations Committees, with an assessment of the progress made with the implementation of the National Development Plan (NDP), 2030.

The brief provides an assessment of: • Progress made with the achievement of targets for the 2019-2024 Medium Term Strategic Framework (MTSF) • The alignment of National Departmental Annual Performance Plans (APPs) with the 2019- 2024 MTSF 2.
Introduction and Background As part of the Parliamentary Budget Office’s support to the oversight process, the Office provides analysis that specifically assist MPs to determine how the budget programmes have been supporting the implementation of the National Development Plan (NDP), 2030.

The 2019-2024 MTSF acknowledges that the NDP Vision 2030 is government’s blueprint to unite all South Africans to address the triple challenges of unemployment, poverty and inequality (UPI).
Although the NDP is government’s long-term plan, several medium-term interventions have been identified to reach the longer-term goals.

One of the pressing problems facing South Africa is the absence of faster and sustained inclusive growth.

South Africa needs to improve productive capacity, human capital and state capability mainly through broad- based investments to address unemployment and livelihood insecurities facing citizens.
The 2019-2024 Medium-Term Strategic Framework (MTSF) is South Africa’s second 5-year implementation plan for the NDP.

The MTSF consists of 7 priorities, 81 outcomes, 337 interventions and 561 indicators.
The 2019-2024 MTSF sets out the interventions per department or relevant government institution that will advance the seven priorities adopted by government: • • • • • • • Priority 1: Building a capable, ethical and developmental state Priority 2: Economic transformation and job creation Priority 3: Education, skills and health Priority 4: Consolidating the social wage through reliable and quality basic services Priority 5: Spatial integration, human settlements and local government Priority 6: Social cohesion and safe communities Priority 7: A better Africa and World This analysis only focuses on the progress within government programmes on the targets set for 2024 relating to the social cohesion outcomes of priority 6: Social Cohesion and Safer Communities, which includes programmes for: • • • • • Fostering constitutional values Equal opportunities, inclusion and redress Promoting social cohesion through increased interaction across space and class Promoting active citizenry and leadership Fostering social compacts According to the 2019-2024 MTSF, South Africa is plagued by key fault lines of gender, racism, inequality of opportunity and outcome, poverty, unemployment and structural exclusion.
Extreme inequality still has an extraordinarily negative impact on social cohesion and inter- 3 | P a g e group interaction.

Opportunity and privilege continue to be largely defined by race, gender, geographic location, class and linguistic background.

As a result, unemployment is particularly high among black African youth, especially young black African women.

In general, persons with disabilities are excluded, marginalised and discriminated against.
Women still suffer from discrimination in society, including in both the education system and labour market.

A socially cohesive and safe South Africa requires a democratic culture of participation and equality.

Such culture requires dedicated interventions to address actions that undermine these democratic values.
This report is based on an assessment of whether the performance indicators, developed to track performance on the 2019 -2024 MTSF are incorporated into the relevant departmental Annual Performance Plans (APPs).

This assessment aims to assist analysts with identifying the misalignment of national priorities with government plans and to ensure that funds are allocated towards the priorities to address UPI.

3.

Methodology Departmental APPs are used as the source of data to determine progress.
This preferred source for data is based on the assumption that if performance indicators are included in departmental APPs they are automatically linked to a budget programme.

This means that they will therefore be funded, monitored and audited through the standard government performance management system within the legal framework provided by the Public Finance Management Act (PFMA), 1999 (Act 1 of 1999).
The performance information from the implementation plans of the 2019-2024 MTSF have been arranged per lead department, including the indicators, baselines, targets and current estimated performance on the interventions identified to achieve the outcomes of the priorities for the 5-year period.

The estimated outcomes on targets set per indicator as per the 2022/23 APPs of the relevant national department, for 2021/22 have been compared with the targets set in the 2019-2024 MTSF (See annexure).
In several instances the actual outputs since 2019/20 have been included, specifically when the target for 2024 reflects an accumulative number over the 5-year period.

To be able to provide the most resent outcomes the quarterly performance reports as at the end of 2021/22 were also consulted.

It should be noted that the performance for 2021/22 is still estimates or preliminary outcomes, actual performance still needs to be verified by the Auditor General of South Africa (AGSA).

Contributions and findings per department To make an impact on moving towards a diverse socially cohesive society with a common national identity government plans to intervene by implementing activities discussed in the following sub-sections.

4.1.

Fostering constitutional values The following departments are responsible to build a new over-arching national identity through a common citizenship and equal rights.

4.1.1.
4.1.1.

Department of Justice (DoJ) To be able to foster constitutional values the Department planned to introduce a hate speech and hate crimes Bill before 2024.

This Bill is currently not amongst the Bills scheduled for introduction in Parliament, according to the list published by the department.

4.1.2.

Brand SA 4 | P a g e Brand SA is providing the constitutional awareness campaigns to promote the Constitution as planned.

4.1.3.
4.1.3.

Department of Sports Art and Culture (DSAC) The department increased public awareness of the national flag, provided flags to schools and supported moral regeneration projects as planned.

Due to a change in spending priorities the monumental flag project was postponed.

4.1.4.
4.1.4.

National School of Government (NSG) Training of senior managers in the public service on how to deal with all forms of discrimination did not happen despite continuous calls to human resource development (HRD) coordinators to launch session.

4.2.

Providing equal opportunities, inclusion and redress The following departments are responsible to provide for equal opportunities, inclusion and redress: 4.2.1.
Department of Employment and Labour (DEL) To improve the enforcement of the Employment Equity Act (EEA) an Employment Equity Amendments Bill has been tabled in Parliament as planned.

The NCOP and the National Assembly have yet to vote on the Bill before it being assented by the President.
The Department did not include an indicator in the APP to determine progress on the number of designated employers or other specific targets set for the 5-year period, in order to improve representation of designated groups across occupational levels.

An annual EE report has, however, been published to track progress on the targets set.
Despite the target set, in the MTSF, to provide a tool for the collection of income differential data by the end of 2022, no target has been set for this output in the APP.

Progress on this intervention is therefore not known.

4.2.2.

Department of justice and Constitutional Development (DoJ&CD) Four of the five indicators identified by the DoJ&CD to provide for equal opportunities, inclusion and redress are included in the APP of the Department.
The Department coordinates the implementation of the National Action Plan to combat racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance and reports that they are on track with outreach initiatives to change behaviour in relation to xenophobia and gender matters.

The Department is also required to establish a rapid response mechanism to respond to incidents of racist and xenophobic offences/hate crimes.

An indicator to measure this output could not be found in the APP.
Such indicator could also be useful to track response times in future.

To be able to measure disaggregated statistical data on racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance, the Department identified datasets for the development of a virtual repository.

4.2.3.

Department of Sports Art and Culture All the indicators to measure performance on the MTSF are included in the APP of the Department, except for the upgrade of national archive infrastructure.
The Department, amongst others, supports projects in the creative industry, the production of documentaries and films to tell South African history and provides bursaries to for the development of qualified language practitioners.

5 | P a g e 4.2.4.

Department of Basic Education (DBE) The Department’s APP did not include any of the performance indicators of the MTSF required to revise the history curriculum in schools.
The Department also estimated that 2 584 schools would offer previously marginalised official African languages by 2024.

The performance indicator in the APP that could be linked to this output indicated that the department monitors schools, instead, for the implementation of the incremental introduction to African languages with targets of 18 over the remainder of the MTSF.

The inclusion of the MTSF indicator for reporting on the target set of 2 584 schools is recommended.

4.3.
4.3.

Promoting social cohesion through increased interaction across space and class The Department of Sport, Arts and Culture, the South African Broadcasting Corporation and Brand SA are responsible for enabling people across space and class to get to know each other and appreciate each other’s humanity as well as debunk stereotypes: 4.3.1.

Department of Sports Art and Culture All the indicators to measure performance on promoting social cohesion are included in the APP of the Department.
The Department is involved in interventions to ensure that at least 90 per cent of the population is aware of the Constitution by 2024.

These interventions, of which most targets have been achieved since 2019/20, include: • Advocacy amongst global South Africans • Access to cultural and art programmes • Providing platforms for community conversations • Promote and provide citizens access to opportunities in sport 4.4.
Promoting active citizenry and leadership The Electoral Commission (IEC), Departments of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs, Basic Education and Brand SA are responsible for promoting active citizenry and leadership.

4.4.1.

Department of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs One of the targets is that all provinces would have a GovChat programme in place for community engagement by 2024.

The first target is set for 2023; however, no progress has been reported to date.
Provinces are however supported to capacitate municipalities to maintain functional ward committees.

4.4.2.

Brand SA Brand SA committed to implement nine Play Your Part (PYP) activities in provinces to promote participation in community-based governance processes.

The new strategy is, however, to increase focus on international programmes and activities as directed by the executive authority.

4.4.3.
4.4.3.

Department of Basic Education To promote participation in community-based governance processes (Active citizenship bodies) the Department committed to survey and monitor the development and implementation of mandatory policies and codes of conduct of 1000 School Governing Bodies for racial integration.

The department, instead, reported that 86 per cent of SGBs met the minimum criteria in terms of effectiveness.

6 | P a g e 4.5.
6 | P a g e 4.5.

Fostering social compacts The Department of Sports, Arts and Culture is responsible for a social compact to promote a more democratic, equal and prosperous society.

4.5.1.

The Department of Sports, Arts and Culture A social compact on social cohesion and nation building has not been developed.

5.

In Summary The PBO provides ongoing assistance to Members of Parliament through identifying constraints with the implementation of budgets and plans.
Despite the achievement of most of the outputs reported on between 2019/20 and 2021/22, unity in diversity has not been achieved.

Although it is not the purpose of this analysis to determine the relevance of the outputs, it might be one of the reasons for not making an impact on the creation of a diverse socially cohesive society with a common national identity.
Another reason might be linked to the non-implementation of a social compact, which includes an implicit agreement among the members of society to cooperate for social benefits and to change behaviour.

This implementation is one of the main targets that still has to be achieved within the 2019-2024 MTSF.

One can only hope that such social compact will find a way to develop a more inclusive society, that will be understood in the national context of a broader social consensus.
The Department of justice and Constitutional Development (DoJ&CD) indicated that they are on track with outreach initiatives to change behaviour in relation to xenophobia and gender matters.

This feedback does not indicate whether any progress has been made.

However, to be able to measure disaggregated statistical data on racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance, the Department identified datasets for the development of a virtual repository.
The Department is further required to establish a rapid response mechanism to respond to incidents of racist and xenophobic offences/hate crimes.

An indicator to measure this output could not be found in the APP.

Such indicator could also be useful to track response times in future.

On a technical level, several interventions identified by departments and other institutions relates to awareness campaigns, which creates a perception of duplication.
