1.6 ACCOUNTING OFFICER'S OVERVIEW

This Annual Report for 2012/13 gives an assessment of the performance of the Office of the Premier during the year under review. The Office has outlined its objectives and targets, within its constitutional mandate, of coordinating government programmes, integrated planning, monitoring and evaluation of the performance of the provincial administration in the 2012/13 Annual Performance Plan. The Annual Performance Plan was duly tabled and discussed with the oversight committees. This report covers achievements made in attaining the objectives and targets as outlined in the Annual Performance Plan 2012/13. The Province has resolved 96% of service delivery cases reported to the Presidential hotline. The Province has improved from 64% of resolved reported service delivery cases in the previous financial year which was placing it in the third place to 96% as at end of the 2012/13 financial year which places the Province in the second place amongst the nine Provinces. This performance has been confirmed by the report from National Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation. One of the critical pillars of public service transformation that the Office of the Premier is monitoring is equity in the workplace. The National Cabinet has directed that all departments must reach the 50% target in relation to employment equity of female employees at SMS by not later than end of March 2014 and 2% employment of employees with disability by not later than March 2015. The province has reached 50% employment equity target in relation to appointment of Heads of Departments in that out of the 12 departments (votes) we are having in the Province six of the posts are occupied by females. The Province has four level 16 posts. Level 16 is the highest level in the Public Service and it is worth mentioning that three of these four level 16 posts are occupied by females. The Office has managed to establish the performance monitoring and evaluation units in all the departments. This intervention has enabled most departments to produce Annual Performance Plans that are having informed and measurable targets. The 2011/12 audit outcomes on predetermined objectives states that there has been remarkable improvement in the conclusions expressed by the AG in that four of our departments have improved while there is only one regression. The Office will continue to live up to its mission of providing innovative and strategic leadership and management for service excellence in order to sustain the achievements made.

The Audit Committee reports that it has complied with its responsibilities arising from Section 38 (1) (a) (ii) of the Public Finance Management Act and Treasury Regulation 3.1 .13. The Audit Committee also reports that it has adopted appropriate formal terms of reference as its Audit Committee Charter, has regulated its affairs in compliance with this charter and has discharged all its responsibilities as contained therein, except that we have not reviewed changes in accounting policies and practices.

The Effectiveness of Internal Control

• Efficiency and effectiveness of the system of internal control applied by the Department In line with the PFMA and the King Ill Report on Corporate Governance requirements, Internal Audit provides the Audit Committee and management with assurance that the internal controls are appropriate and effective

This is achieved by means of the risk management process, as well as the identification of corrective actions and suggested enhancements to the controls and processes From the various reports of the Internal Auditors, the Audit Report on the Annual Financial Statements both any qualification and/or the emphasis of matter, and the management report of the Auditor-General, it was noted that the system of internal control was not entirely effective for the year under review. During the year under review, several deficiencies in the system of internal control and/or deviations were reported by the internal auditors and the Auditor-General South Africa. In certain instances, the matters reported previously have not been fully and satisfactorily addressed.

Our review of the findings of the Internal Audit work, which was based on the risk assessments conducted in the department revealed certain weaknesses, which were then raised with the Department.

The following internal audit work was completed during the year under review:

37 Limpopo Office of the Premier Annual Report 2012/13 • In-Year Monitoring • Interim Financial Reporting Pre-determined Objectives • Debt Management • Subsistence and Travelling Allowance • Leave Management • Supply Chain Management • PERSAL CAATs • eNatis and Asset Management • Addressing the AG IT findings • Fleet Management - claims • Transversal Human Resources Policies • Performance Management System The following were areas of concern: • The contract of the Audit Committee (AC) expired on the 31 st of December 2012 and the new AC was appointed for a period from the 1st of May 2013 to 31 st of August 2013. • The previous AC considered only the 1st and 2nd quarterly reports whereas the timing for the new AC allowed for the consideration of the 4th quarter reports, as a result of the delay in appointing the Audit Committee, the 3rd quarter reports were not considered by the Audit Committee. • The department's implementation of PIA's findings is not satisfactory.

• Risk Management

The system of internal control applied by the department over financial risk and risk management is effective, efficient and transparent.

• Annual Financial Statements We have reviewed the department's implementation plan for audit issues raised in the prior year and we are satisfied that the matters have been adequately resolved except for the following:

o Not all AG findings were resolved by the Department.

• The quality of in year management and monthly/quarterly reports submitted in terms of the PFMA and the Division of Revenue Act.

The Audit Committee is satisfied with the content and quality of monthly and quarterly reports prepared and issued by the Accounting Officer of the Department during the year under review.

38 Limpopo Office of the Premier Annual Report 2012/13 Evaluation of Financial Statements The Audit Committee has: • reviewed and discussed the audited annual financial statements to be included in the annual report with the Auditor-General and the Accounting Officer; • reviewed the Auditor-General's management report and management's response thereto; • reviewed changes in accounting policies and practices; • reviewed the departments compliance with legal and regulatory provisions; • reviewed the information on predetermined objectives to be included in the annual report; • reviewed significant adjustments resulting from the audit; and • quality and timelines of the financial information availed information to the Audit Committee for oversight purposes during the year such as interim financial statements. The Audit Committee concurs and accepts the conclusions of the Auditor-General on the annual financial statements and is of the opinion that the audited annual financial statements be accepted and read together with the report of the Auditor-General. Internal audit

The Audit Committee is satisfied that the internal audit function is operating effectively given the current capacity constraints, and that further improvements need be made to address the risks pertinent to the Department. Auditor General South Africa

We have reviewed the department's implementation plan for audit issues raised in the prior year and we are satisfied that the matters have been resolved.

The Office of the Premier is entrusted by the constitution with the responsibility of ensuring that the decisions of the provincial administration are implemented. The office is committed to effective administration by developing and monitoring the implementation of legislation and policies which contribute to the improvement of service delivery.

The Office of the Premier could not spend an amount of R31, 531 million as at the end of the Financial Year mainly due to the implementation of the Provincial instruction on austerity measures.

1.1 Important policy decisions and strategic issues facing the department

The Office of the Premier has restructured and focus will be on the functions as mandated by the constitution, namely planning co-ordination, provincial monitoring and evaluation and the institutional support to provincial departments as provided for in the mandating legislation.

1.2 Spending trend

The original budget allocation appropriated to the Office of the Premier was R329, 288 million which was finally decreased to an amount of R306, 138 million. The budget decrease was mainly due to a saving made from the austerity measures put in place and implemented towards offsetting the unauthorised expenditure. An amount of R27 4, 607 million was spent against the final budget of R306 138 million which equates to 90%.The under­ spending is due to the implementation of the provincial instruction on austerity measures.

• Compensation of Employees An amount of R187,501 million (95%) was spent against the final budget of R196,699 million on compensation of employees in 2012/13 financial year as compared to the amount of R173,189 million (99%) spent against the budget of R174,711 million in 2011/12 financial year.

An amount of R79,009 million (84%) was spent against the final budget of R93,658 million on goods & services in 2012/13 financial year as compared to the amount of R94,329 million spent (88%) against the budget of R107,376 million in 2011/12 financial year.AIIICT projects were submitted to SIT A

40 Limpopo Office of the Premier Annual Report 2012/13 for implementation. Delays in procurement processes by SITA resulted in the under-expenditure as the projects were not implemented.( DRP, ICT Governance, and Thusong Centres)

Transfer Payments

An amount of R3,945 million(66%) was spent against the final budget of R5,935 million on transfer payments in 2012/13 financial year as compared to the amount of R7,704 million (93%) spent against the budget of R8,290 million in 2011/12 financial year. The budget amount for state claims of R0,6m was not claimed during the financial year. The Office envisaged to award bursaries to 175 students to the value of R3, 8m . However, 64 students who applied did not meet the requirements hence an under-spending of 34%.

• Capital Payments

An amount of R4,067 million(42%) was spent against the final budget of R9 ,696 million on Payments for Capital Assets in 2012/13 financial year as compared to the amount R5,342 million (44%) spent against the budget of R12 ,011 million.

DIRECTOR-GENERAL 47 Limpopo Office of the Premier Annual Report 2012/13 3.3 REPORT OF THE AUDITOR- GENERAL TO THE LIMPOPO PROVINCIAL LEGISLATURE ON VOTE NO. 1: LIMPOPO OFFICE OF THE PREMIER REPORT ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Introduction

1. I have audited the financial statements of the Office of the Premier set out on pages 53 to 104 wh ich comprise the appropriation statement, the statement of financial position as at 31 March 2013, the statement of financial performance, statement of changes in net assets and the cash flow statement for the year then ended, and the notes, comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Accounting officer's responsibility for the financial statements

2. The accounting officer is responsible for the preparation of these financial statements in accordance with the Departmental financial reporting framework prescribed by the National Treasury, the requirements of the Public Finance Management Act of South Africa, 1999 (Act No. 1 of 1999) (PFMA), Division of Revenue Act of South Africa , 2012 (Act No. 5 of 2012) (DoRA) and for such internal control as the accounting officer determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor-General's responsibility

3. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit. I conducted my audit in accordance with the Public Audit Act of South Africa, 2004 (Act No. 25 of 2004) (PAA), the General Notice issued in terms thereof and International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that I comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. 4. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the aud itor's judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

5. I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my audit opinion.

48 Limpopo Office of the Premier Annual Re port 2012/13 Opinion

6. In my opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Office of the Premier as at 31 March 2013, and its financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the Departmental financial reporting framework prescribed by the National Treasury and the requirements of the PFMA and DoRA.

EMPHASIS OF MATTER PARAGRAPHS

I draw attention to the matters below. My opinion is not modified in respect of these matters.

Significant uncertainties

7. With reference to note 29 to the financial statements, the department is a defendant in various lawsuits. The department is opposing these claims as it challenges the validity of the lawsuits. The ultimate outcome of these matters cannot presently be determined and no provision for any li ability that may result has been made in the financial statements. Material underspending of the budget

8. As disclosed in the appropriation statement, the Limpopo Office of the Premier has materially under spent the budget on administration, institutional development and policy and governance to the amount of R31 531 OOO .This was due to the implementation of austerity measures as per the provincial instruction.

Additional matters

10. 1 draw attention to the matters below. My opinion is not modified in respect of these matters:

Unaudited supplementary schedules

11 . The supplementary information set out on pages 80 to 104 does not form part of the financial statements and is presented as additional information. I have not audited this schedule and , accordingly, I do not express an opinion thereon. Financial reporting framework

12. The financial reporting framework prescribed by the National Treasury and applied by the department is a compliance framework. The wording of my opinion on a compliance framework should reflect that the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with this framework and not that they

49 Limpopo Office of the Premier Annua l Report 2012/13 "present fairly". Section 20(2) (a) of the PAA, however, requires me to express an opinion on the fair presentation of the financial statements. The wording of my opinion therefore reflects this requirement.

REPORT ON OTHER LEGAL AND REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS

13. In accordance with the PAA and the General Notice issued in terms thereof, I report the following findings relevant to performance against predetermined objectives, compliance with laws and regulations and internal control, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion.

Predetermined objectives

14. I performed procedures to obtain evidence about the usefulness and reliability of the information in the annual performance report as set out on pages 19 to 35 of the annual report.

15. The reported performance against predetermined objectives was evaluated against the overall criteria of usefulness and reliability. The usefulness of information in the annual performance report relates to whether it is presented in accordance with the National Treasury's annual reporting principles and whether the reported performance is consistent with the planned objectives. The usefulness of information further relates to whether indicators and targets are measurable (i.e. well defined, verifiable, specific, measurable and time bound) and relevant as required by the National Treasury Framework for managing programme performance information.

16. The reliability of the information in respect of the selected programmes is assessed to determine whether it adequately reflects the facts (i.e. whether it is valid, accurate and complete).

17. There were no material findings on the annual performance report concerning the usefulness and reliability of the information.

Additional matter 18. Although no material findings concerning the usefulness and reliability of the performance information were identified in the annual performance report, I draw attention to the following matter below. Achievement of planned targets 19. Of the total number of 28 targets planned for the year, 11 of targets were not achieved during the year under review. This represents 39% of total planned targets that were not achieved during the year under review. This was mainly due to the fact that austerity measures were implemented to reduce spending on, among others, personnel expenditure.

Compliance with laws and regulations

20. I performed procedures to obtain evidence that the entity has complied with applicable laws and regulations regarding financial matters, financial so Limpopo Office of the Premier Annual Report 2012/13 management and other related matters. My findings on material non-compliance with specific matters in key applicable laws and regulations as set out in the General Notice issued in terms of the PAA are as follows

Audit committees

21. An audit committee was not in place from 1 January 2013 to 31 March 2013. This is in contravention to the requirements of sections 38(1 )(a)(ii) and 77 of the PFMA and Treasury Regulation (TR) 3.1.1 22. The audit committee did not have approved written terms of reference in place from 1 April 2012 to 29 October 2012. The terms of reference was approved by the Executive Authority on 29 October 2012. This is in contravention to the requirements of TR 3.1.8. Expenditure Management

23. The accounting officer did not take effective steps to prevent irregular and fruitless and wasteful expenditure, as required by section 38(1 )(c)(ii) of the PFMA and TR 9.1 .1. Human resource management 24. Funded vacant posts were not filled within 12 months as required by Public Service Regulation 1/VII/C.1A.2. Procurement and contract management

25. Persons in service of other state institutions who had a private or business interest in contracts awarded by the department participated in the process relating to that contract in contravention of TR 16A8.4. Strategic planning and performance

26. The department did not provide provincial legislature with the plan at least 10 days prior to the discussion of the department's budget vote as required by TR 5.2.2.

Internal control

27. 1 considered internal control relevant to my audit of the financial statements, annual performance report and compliance with laws and regulations. The matters reported below under the fundamentals of internal control are limited to the significant deficiencies that resulted in the findings on compliance with laws and regulations included in this report.

Leadership 28. The accounting officer did not exercise adequate oversight responsibility regarding actions taken to address the requirements of legislations.

51 Limpopo Office of the Premier Annual Report 2012/13 Financial and performance management

29. Adequate actions were not taken on the IT internal controls deficiencies identified during the audit. Furthermore, the department does not have an IT Policy.

Governance 29. The audit committee's term came to an end prior to year end and consequently the audit committee did not exercise oversight on the implementation of matters reported by the internal audit function for the third and fourth quarter.

4.4 Job evaluation

The Public Service Regulations, 1999 introduced job evaluation as a way of ensuring that work of equal value is remunerated equally. Within a nationally determined framework, executing authorities may evaluate or re-evaluate any job in his or her organisation. In terms of the Regulations all vacancies on salary levels 9 and higher must be evaluated before they are filled. Th is was complemented by a decision by the Minister for the Public Service and Administration that all SMS jobs must be evaluated before 31 December 2002.

The following table (Table 4.1) summarises the number of jobs that were evaluated during the year under review. The table also provides statistics on the number of posts that were upgraded or downgraded. TABLE 4.1- Job Evaluation, 1 Apri/2012 to 31 March 2013
