How do we place a value on the information produced through the undertaking of a population census? The price tag of the last two recent censuses conducted, i.e. the cost to South African tax payers, we know to have been R419 million and R987 million respectively. It is obvious – particularly with the information and communication technologies we have at our fingertips today – that while it is extremely costly to produce information, it is extremely cheap to reproduce information. While information economists might put forward different approaches to how we can quantify the value of information in general, there cannot be much argument against the point that the value of information is derived from it being utilised. Through publishing this book, which is demonstrating how others have used census data, together with the provision of information on how the data were collected, we hope to broaden and deepen the use of census data. Due to funding constraints, the flagship Census ’96 data product, SuperCross, which enabled users to tabulate and cross-tabulate census data for the whole or parts of the country, and get this into the format of their choice; could not be given free of charge. We had to charge users R8 000 (for the single-user license / one per province) and up to R400 000 (for the multi-user license, including the complete dataset). This tool provided users with census data, from enumeration to provincial level, including the metadata. The SuperCross software had a built-in charting and mapping functionality. We sold 219 copies of the 1996 SuperCross package and gave away free copies after 1999. With better funding in 2003, the equivalent Census 2001 product was made available free of charge to the public sector and educational institutions – and we supported the installation and training on the use of the product on computers in over 1 400 organisations. And six years on after Census 2001– and particularly in the last 12 months ending 1 July 2007 – over 900 users have downloaded Census in Brief 2001 from our website. So the utilisation of census data has no doubt increased - but there could still be more who could potentially benefit from using this data. More use means 4 deriving more value from the information collected through the costly exercise of census taking. And so, this is why I am proud to introduce the census users’ handbook, which itself is a product resulting from collaboration between the producers and key users of census data. I trust that this will encourage the further exploitation of census data – not only as an independent information source, but also to enrich the interpretation and understanding of information from other sources. Pali Lehohla Statistician-General (Stats SA) 5 Preface The importance of census data in addressing societal needs, developing policy, implementing development strategies and monitoring the progress of government programmes is well documented. In fact, it is the opinion of many international researchers and scholars that census data or the socio-economic information that can be extracted from such data is one of the most important data sets that a country needs in addressing the basic needs of its people and focusing its attention on achieving the objectives stipulated within national policies. From policies such as the Reconstruction and Development Programme (RDP) that was implemented in 1994 by the newly-elected democratic government to improve the quality of life and standard of living of all people in South Africa, through to the New Partnership for African Development (NEPAD), which is an integrated strategy to bring about the holistic socio-economic development of the African continent to Agenda 21, which is a global strategy to achieve sustainable development; the need for socio-economic data emanating from national censuses is seen as being core to the achievement of these policy’s goals and objectives. The intention of this publication is, therefore, to provide a better understanding of what variables are incorporated into census questionnaires, such as the 1996 and 2001 censuses conducted in South Africa; what information can be derived from such data when used to populate various indicators and for what applications the census data can be used. By providing such a reference manual it is hoped that policy and decision-makers, officials at all three tiers of government, planners, non-government organisations, research institutions, private businesses and the communities of South Africa will be better informed about the value of census data and that they will be greatly encouraged to use it in their decision-making. Although the publication focuses mainly on the 2001 census, the chapters on the different thematic components are equally applicable census conducted in the past and future. The approach that has been taken to provide this information was to request the assistance of researchers at the Human Sciences Research Council (HSRC) and Statistics South Africa to provide their specialist insight into the different chapters contained in this manual. This publication is seen as a foundation upon which the knowledge of using census data will be built upon and that in years to come will see an update to reflect on the progress that has been made in the analysis and use of this information for decision- making purposes. South Africa remains one of the few countries in Africa that has not only conducted regular censuses but has progressed to incorporate the enumerator area boundaries and census attributes into Geographical Information Systems (GIS) for the planning of its future censuses and to disseminate the results. This progressive approach has seen the production of many different products from both the 1996 and 2001 6 censuses. Furthermore, access to information from the censuses has been dramatically improved by Statistics South Africa (Stats SA) adopting a policy of making the data freely available in relatively easy-to-use cross tabulation software that enables users to analyse and extract a wealth of information. It is hoped that this first census users’ manual will do justice to what has been achieved with censuses in South Africa and that a new wave of users will spring up from the insights that are contained in the different chapters. The manual has 12 chapters that provide insights into how censuses are conducted and what products have emanated from the 1996 and 2001 censuses. Emphasis is also placed on the need to be able to integrate the census data with other layers of information to enable a more holistic perspective of South Africa for better decision- making purposes. One of the mechanisms by which these layers of information can be effectively integrated is by the use of GIS technology. Chapter 4 gives a detailed account of how the geography of the census is established. The next chapter examines the use of GIS as a tool for visualising census data and provides several examples of how best to accomplish this.

  • Annexure E: Public‐Private Partnerships
    E Public‐private partnerships Introduction To revitalise the economy and meet the goals of the National Development Plan, South Africa needs to establish a more competitive infrastructure base. However, government capital budgets have come under significant pressure in recent years due to weak economic growth and competing priorities, such as funding for higher education and compensation of employees. Greater use of well‐managed public‐ private partnerships (PPPs) can improve planning and feasibility studies, resulting in more rigorous project assessment and accountability, and draw in private financing for public infrastructure projects. The Infrastructure Fund, first announced in 2018, creates an opportunity for more partnerships between government and the private sector through the use of blended finance. A pipeline of economic and social projects, most of which are expected to be PPPs, is being developed with the private sector. The fund is discussed in more detail in Annexure D. The difference between PPPs and traditional government infrastructure projects A PPP is defined as a contract between a public‐sector institution and a private party, where the private party performs a function that is usually provided by the public sector and/or uses state property in terms of the PPP agreement. Most of the project risk (technical, financial and operational) is transferred to the private party. The public sector pays for a full set of services, including new infrastructure, maintenance and facilities management, through monthly or annual payments. In a traditional government project, the public sector pays for the capital and operating costs, and carries the risks of cost overruns and late delivery.

    OFFICIAL GUIDE TO South Africa 2018/19 Communications 53 Official Guide to South Africa 2018/19 Communications 54 Department of Communications (DoC) and Digital Technologies (DCDT) Following the reconfiguration of government departments in June 2019, the DoC was merged with the Department of Telecommunications and Postal Services (DTPS) to form the new DCDT. The then DoC was spearheading the process of migrating broadcasting signals from analogue to digital. South Africa’s national digital network coverage comprises DTT transmission coverage of 84% of the population with the remaining 16% to be covered by satellite network. DTT is a reliable and cost-efficient means to distribute linear TV content and has many advantages over the analogue broadcasting system. One of its major advantages for communities is that it clears the analogue spectrum for the delivery of broadband mobile Internet and Wi-fi services. To view digital TV signals on an ordinary analogue TV set, consumers will need a set-top box (STB). Government will provide about five million poor TV-owning households with free STBs. Once the migration is complete, high definition TV telecast facilities would be available, along with expanded community, FM and satellite radio services to the entire population. During the 2017/18 financial year, the then DoC developed the White Paper on Audio-Visual and Digital Content Policy for South Africa, which provides enabling mechanisms to facilitate ownership of the new audio-visual digital content value chain by previously disadvantaged communities and small, medium and micro enterprises. Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) In 2018, Communications (and Digital Technologies) Minister Stella Ndabeni-Abrahams announced the “Building a Capable 4IR Army” capacity development programme to ensure that communities are equipped to take advantage of new digital technologies, unlock future jobs and drive competitiveness.
