An Assessment of Regional Integrated Development Planning in Eswatini An Assessment of Regional Integrated Development Planning in Eswatini by Nonqaba Tebogo Keatimilwe Thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Masters in Public Administration in the faculty of Economic and Management Science at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Prof. Zwelinzima Ndevu March 2021 i Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za DECLARATION By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the sole author thereof (save to the extent explicitly otherwise stated), that reproduction and publication thereof by Stellenbosch University will not infringe any third-party rights and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Date: March 2021 Copyright © 2021 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved ii Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za ABSTRACT Regional integrated development planning was incorporated into policy to equally distribute development among administrative regions and rural and urban areas in Eswatini. While the goal was to reduce poverty, rural poverty has reduced at a slow pace for the population. This research was undertaken to evaluate the implementation of regional integrated development planning and to gain knowledge of the operational aspects. Research on integrated development planning in Eswatini largely focuses on implementation by urban subnational government. This investigation provides an overview of development planning by the Regional Government, which oversees Tinkhundla areas in rural Eswatini. For this reason, the entire decentralisation system was studied to understand government administration via the Tinkhundla System. The investigation included an analysis of the intergovernmental relations of all levels of government and the application of Eswatini Law and Custom in conjunction with Roman-Dutch Common Law. An exploratory, qualitative research approach was adopted. Primary data were collected from key informants through unstructured expert interviews. Secondary data from legislation, government reports and publications, as well as published and unpublished work on the topic were also collected for a comprehensive examination. Findings from this research pointed to a weak legislative framework, which has had adverse implications for integrated development planning at the Regional Level, subnational government reform, decentralisation management and policy coordination. Consequently, the major recommendations arising from the research are connected to the codification of Eswatini Law and Custom and the establishment of an enabling legislative framework, particularly the enactment of the Tinkhundla and Regional Administration Bill of 2014. Legislation is crucial for the creation of a legal basis to merge urban and rural subnational government, institutional reform of the decentralised system in Eswatini and elimination of operational ambiguity caused by Chieftaincy-related issues in the development process. iii Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za OPSOMMING Streekgeïntegreerde ontwikkelingsbeplanning is in beleid opgeneem om ontwikkeling eweredig onder administratiewe streke en landelike en stedelike gebiede in Eswatini te versprei. Terwyl die bedoeling was om armoede te verminder, is armoede in die landelike bevolking teen 'n uiters stadige tempo verlaag. Hierdie navorsing is onderneem om die implementering van streeks-geïntegreerde ontwikkelingsbeplanning te evalueer om kennis oor die operasionele aspekte op te doen. Navorsing oor geïntegreerde ontwikkelingsbeplanning in Eswatini is grootliks op implementering deur stedelike subnasionale regering gerig. Hierdie ondersoek bied 'n oorsig van ontwikkelingsbeplanning deur die plaaslike regering, wat toesig hou oor Tinkhundla- gebiede in landelike Eswatini. Om hierdie rede is die hele desentralisasiestelsel bestudeer om regeringsadministrasie via die Tinkhundla-stelsel te verstaan. Dit omsluit 'n ontleding van die interregeringsverhoudinge van alle regeringsvlakke en die tweeledige toepassing van Swati Wetgewing en Gewoonte in samehang met die Romeins-Hollandse gemenereg. ’n Ondersoekende, kwalitatiewe navorsingsbenadering is toegepas. Primêre gegewens is met behulp van ongestruktureerde kundige onderhoude met belangrike informante versamel. Sekondêre gegewens uit wetgewing, regeringsverslae en publikasies, sowel as gepubliseerde en ongepubliseerde werk oor die onderwerp, is ook vir uitgebreide ondersoek ingesamel. Bevindinge uit hierdie navorsing dui op 'n swak wetgewende raamwerk wat nadelige gevolge gehad het vir geïntegreerde ontwikkelingsbeplanning op streeksvlak en vir subnasionale regeringshervorming, desentralisasiebestuur en beleidskoördinering. Die belangrikste aanbevelings wat uit die navorsing voortspruit is gevolglik aan die kodifisering van Swati Wetgewing en Gewoonte en die daarstelling van wetgewende raamwerke gekoppel, veral die instelling van die Tinkhundla Wetsontwerp op Plaaslike Ontwikkeling en Administrasie van 2014. Wetgewing is van kardinale belang vir die skepping van 'n wetlike grondslag om stedelike en landelike subnasionale regering saam te smelt, vir die institusionele hervorming van die gedesentraliseerde stelsel in Eswatini en die opheffing van die bedryfsdubbelsinnigheid wat deur hoofmanskapverwante probleme in die ontwikkelingsproses ontstaan. iv Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank the Lord Almighty for continuing to propel me.

  • The Relationship Between MNE Tax Haven Use and FDI Into Developing Economies Characterized by Capital Flight
    1 The relationship between MNE tax haven use and FDI into developing economies characterized by capital flight By Ali Ahmed, Chris Jones and Yama Temouri* The use of tax havens by multinationals is a pervasive activity in international business. However, we know little about the complementary relationship between tax haven use and foreign direct investment (FDI) in the developing world. Drawing on internalization theory, we develop a conceptual framework that explores this relationship and allows us to contribute to the literature on the determinants of tax haven use by developed-country multinationals. Using a large, firm-level data set, we test the model and find a strong positive association between tax haven use and FDI into countries characterized by low economic development and extreme levels of capital flight. This paper contributes to the literature by adding an important dimension to our understanding of the motives for which MNEs invest in tax havens and has important policy implications at both the domestic and the international level. Keywords: capital flight, economic development, institutions, tax havens, wealth extraction 1. Introduction Multinational enterprises (MNEs) from the developed world own different types of subsidiaries in increasingly complex networks across the globe. Some of the foreign host locations are characterized by light-touch regulation and secrecy, as well as low tax rates on financial capital. These so-called tax havens have received widespread media attention in recent years. In this paper, we explore the relationship between tax haven use and foreign direct investment (FDI) in developing countries, which are often characterized by weak institutions, market imperfections and a propensity for significant capital flight.

The purpose of the PPA was to complement the National Household Income and Expenditure Survey carried out by the Central Statistical Office by providing qualitative information, from the perspectives of the poor themselves, concerning: * the nature of poverty, vulnerability and wellbeing; * changes over time which have affected people's wellbeing; * how people cope with poverty and vulnerability; * the constraints and opportunities for improving wellbeing. The assessment is described as "participatory" because it involved direct participation by the poor in analysing their own conditions. In each of 63 selected communities throughout Swaziland, discussions were held in large and small focus groups, followed by conversational interviews with individual households. Instead of using structured questionnaires, researchers used an interview guide to conduct semi-structured, conversational interviews. Research teams were assigned to each of the four agro-ecological regions of Swaziland-- Highveld, Middleveld, Lowveld and Lubombo- and to selected peri-urban sites.
