Since 2001, DMA’s have been part of South African District Municipalities and are directly run by the district municipality which manages their geographic area. Most areas of South Africa are either managed by a local or metropolitan municipality. District Municipalities provide support to groups of Local Municipalities. This unhappiness became evident during a meeting held between the Cacadu District Municipality, the Demarcation Board and the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) with residents in the DMA recently. The meeting was meant to prepare and register residents for the upcoming local government elections. This important meeting was also meant to inform residents of their new wards and voting stations as well as the things they need to have in order to make that important cross at the polls on 18 May 2011. “We were at pains trying to explain to them that this year, there will be no more DMA that people within those areas will be split to form part of the local municipalities around them – based on Nelson Mandela Bay in a joint effort with the Cacadu District Municipality delivered what has been described as an their proximity,” said Cacadu District overwhelmingly successful stage of The Cell C Tour of South Africa, which saw Kristian House retain the gold Lion Council Speaker, Deon De Vos. jersey.

    Media Statement on the Public Announcement of Members of the Eastern Cape Planning Commission by Premier Noxolo Kiviet

    Media statement on the public announcement of members of the Eastern Cape Planning Commission by Premier Noxolo Kiviet Programme Director Members of the Executive Council The Director-General Special guests and partners Head of Departments Media Representatives Welcome to this very important day, when we are launching our Provincial Planning Commission assigned to spearhead the development of our 2030 vision in collaboration with all our people in the province. The Executive Council of the Eastern Cape took a decision to link the planning function to the Provincial Treasury resulting in creation of the provincial Ministry of Planning and Finance under MEC Phumulo Masualle. Subsequent to that announcement, the MEC presented in November 2011 a comprehensive report on the institutional structure for the planning commission. The report recommended amongst others the need to set up the planning infrastructure include the following aspects: The commission comprising 8 part-time members drawn from eminent persons that are familiar with the development challenges of the province; Given the part-time nature of the commissioners, it was further recommended that administrative secretariat be appointed to support the operational requirements of the commission; Technical support staff be appointed to enhance the research capacity within the planning commission; The commission share its corporate services function with the Provincial Treasury to ensure the efficient use of the personnel resources; Resources be set aside from the budget to resource the functioning of the commission. The MEC for Planning and Finance further recommended that the mandate of the Eastern Cape Planning Commission be: 1 The drawing up of the long-term plan of the Province- Vision 2030.

    International Women's Day Speech Addressed by Premier Noxolo Kiviet

    INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY Address by: Eastern Cape Premier, Ms Noxolo Kiviet 01 March 2011 Honourable Speaker and Deputy Speaker Members of the Executive Council Director-General and senior members of our administration Members of the Media Honoured guests Ladies and gentlemen As part of the womenfolk, I am quite honoured to have this opportunity to join in solidarity our worldwide community in launching a month-long programme commemorating the International Women’s Day, observed globally on 08 March each year since 1911. The centenary of this day comes as we continue to battle in our respective societies with economic, political and social challenges that in 1908 compelled women to raise their voices and speak up demanding shorter working hours, better pay and voting rights. The 1910 international conference of women decision, recognised by the United Nations, to set aside a day to put pressure for women's demands remains pungently relevant even today as we have not yet reached a stage where we can say that social equity, justice, peace and development is accessible to all. | Page 2 of 10 It is also worth remembering that this year in South Africa; we will be celebrating the 55th year anniversary of the 1956 women’s march to the Union Building. Women from all over South Africa, representing all racial groups and classes descended on Pretoria in defiance of the apartheid regime oppression brought about by the extension of pass laws. On 09 August we shall honour them recognising their boldness in demonstrating their resentment of such laws. Our current state reflects triumph over adversity as true freedom, as expressed by our first democratically elected President, Nelson Mandela, “cannot be achieved unless women have been emancipated from all forms of oppression”.

    1 Address by the Honorable Premier, Ms Noxolo Kiviet, at the 2Nd

    Address by the Honorable Premier, Ms Noxolo Kiviet, at the 2nd Session of the Anti-Corruption Learning Network, 30-31 July 2009. Summerstrand Inn Port Elizabeth 30 July 2009 Greetings Honorable Minister of the Department of Public Service & Administration Members of the Provincial Anti-Corruption Forum & Council Directors General and Heads of Department Representatives of the Anti-Corruption Coordinating Committee Distinguished ladies and gentlemen On this occasion of the Second Session of the Anti-Corruption Learning Network, I wish to express my pleasure of being part of a public service that is caring towards the citizens that we serve. On behalf of the Eastern Cape Provincial Government I further wish to express our unwavering commitment to uprooting corruption in all structures and systems of government. I am indeed honored to be part of this momentous occasion and to co-host this brilliant initiative, the Anti- Corruption Learning Network. Today in South Africa, we hardly open a newspaper without being confronted by reports relating to a wide range of unethical activities, from lowest levels of municipal service delivery to the highest echelons of government and public enterprises. However, South Africans have not met this challenge with apathy. There is a growing realization that if we do not stem out the tide of corruption, then the dream of a free and prosperous South Africa will not materialize and the entire 1 hope of a better life for all will be difficult to realize. Most fundamentally, our young democracy will be at stake In order to give effect to our resolve to uproot corruption in all its forms and manifestations government passed various pieces of legislations that are aimed at curbing corruption and crime, for example: • Public Finance Management Act (PFMA) No.

The research explored two core questions: how politics and background institutions influence educational bureaucracies; and the relative merits of hierarchical and horizontal governance. South Africa’s institutional arrangements provide a ‘natural experiment’ for analysing these questions. While policymaking, the regulatory framework and resourcing are uniform nationally, responsibility for implementation is delegated to the country’s nine provinces, which differ substantially from one another, both politically and institutionally. The Western Cape emerges as a strong performer relative to other South African provinces. However, econometric analysis confirms that, notwithstanding strong bureaucracy and abundant resources, its outcomes were below those achieved in Kenya.

    An Open Letter to the Vice President of ANC, an Open Letter to the Vice President of ANC, Cyril Ramaphosa Cyril Ramaphosa

    An open letter to The Vice President of ANC, Cyril Ramaphosa Dear Sir, Having recently personally purchased for R18 million a buffal o bull, I know you are someone who cares about our wildlife and heritage. My problem is this, in September 2011, I implored the President, Jacob Zuma to treat the invasion of Mozambicans who are killing our rhino as an invasion of our country. I feel the President, like President Ian Khama of Botswana, should be at the forefront of this rhino crisis. As from my attached letter, you will see that the war is intensifying into the private game reserves. In desperation, I have written a letter to the Minister of Defense, but I have had no response. I find the ANC Government aloof and non-communicative with its citizens. Can you urge the Minister of Defense to commit troops to crush this poaching once and for all. Could you as Vice President of ANC, take this crisis into your own hands and play the role that President Ian Khama is playing. This involves appearing on TV, motivating and inspiring us who are trying to combat the poaching. We desperately need leadership! The fire that you displayed when you were leading the unions against the big mining companies during apartheid, is needed now!

    Speech by Cyril Ramaphosa Adoption Day 8 May 1996 The CHAIRPERSON OF THE CONSTITUTIONAL ASSEMBLY: Deputy Chairperson of the Constitutional Assembly, Comrade President, Deputy Presidents Thabo Mbeki and F W de Klerk, leaders of all political parties represented here, your majesties, your excellencies, Speaker of the National Assembly, Deputy Speaker, President of the Senate, Deputy President of the Senate, members of the National Assembly and the Senate, I would like to welcome you all as the Deputy Chairperson of the Constitutional Assembly has. I would also like to say today is a day of joy. It is a day of celebration. They have just brought me some water here, and I would like to do what the hon the President often does as he addresses us, because it is a day to say cheers! It is indeed a historic day. It is the birthday of the South African rainbow nation. This is the day when South Africa is truly born. As we begin this joyous and solemn occasion, I would like to reveal a part of myself and to dedicate my address to three great South Africans who would have been here with us today if time and tide had been kinder: Oliver Reginald Tambo, Chris Hani and Joe Slovo. There are many others one could have cited, but these are the three leaders whom I personally sorely missed during the process of constitution-making. I missed them, because I related to all of them in different ways. All of them were there when we started the negotiation process, and they contributed a great deal to me personally, in enabling me and many others to negotiate the transition process and emerge with an interim Constitution.
