  • Rents and Repurposing in the Local State Crispian Olver, Department of Political Science, University of the Witwatersrand August 2019
    Draft – for discussion purposes Page 1 Rents and repurposing in the local state Crispian Olver, Department of Political Science, University of the Witwatersrand August 2019 Abstract The systemic nature of corruption in local government needs to be understood it terms of the social and economic forces acting on the state, particularly the formation of new classes and elites within the dynamics of the South African political transition. Through case studies of Cape Town and Nelson Mandela Bay the paper explores the way in which the economic advantages at the disposal of local government, referred to as rents, are distributed according to the power relations in cities. Regimes in each city wield effective power through an informal coalition of political, institutional and entrepreneurial actors. The regimes are distinguished in terms of the way that power is structured, the nature of the rents that are allocated, and their developmental outcomes. Cape Town’s ‘growth machine’ model, founded on intimate relationships between developers and political leaders, exercises centralised control over land rights which are allocated to established property interests. The weaker ‘clientelist’ regime in Nelson Mandela Bay distributes an ever decreasing pool of procurement rents to sustain a decentralised patronage based model. The paper suggests that the two regimes constitute the opposing poles of a spectrum of local governance arrangements. Despite the better development outcomes of growth machines, neither regime specifically advantages the urban poor. The paper concludes by suggesting ways in which socially inclusive urban regimes can be constituted and rents directed to better serve public interest. The problem of corruption in local government In the post-apartheid era, few corruption cases have captured the public imagination as did the “The Great VBS Bank Heist”, in which an little-known mutual bank was turned into an enrichment scheme for some 53 ‘persons of interest’ who irregularly received approximately R1,9 billion between 2015 and 2017.

  • Patricia Kopane
    Motsoaledi should account for plans to kill private healthcare – Patricia Kopane - Politics Web – 19 November The DA is deeply concerned by reports that the Minister of Health, Dr Aaron Motsoaledi, is making major changes to National Health Insurance Bill, only four months after it was first made available for public comment. Even more concerning are reports that Motsoaledi has made substantive changes to the bill and presented a new version to Cabinet without consulting with National Treasury or senior members of his own department. Instead, reports suggest that the changes are the brainchild of Motsoaledi and Presidential Advisor Dr Olive Shisana. Some of the most dramatic and concerning amendments to the draft bill on NHI reportedly include restricting medical aid or other private health insurance schemes to providing only complementary cover, effectively making NHI the only game in town. The effect of this is nothing short of nationalising the private healthcare industry by making the State the sole purchaser of healthcare services. The DA raised the alarm when we were first presented with the bill in July, pointing out that the proposed National Health Insurance Fund would be little more than an enormous healthcare state-owned entity (SOE) that would force private healthcare providers to do business with it at predetermined rates. This NHI model would effectively capture the existing 8.8 million current medical scheme users and force them to bail out the public healthcare system which has all but collapsed under Motsoaledi’s long tenure. The proposal was also not properly costed with Motsoaledi admitting that he had no idea how much it would cost or where the money would come from.
