The report is in essence, an account by the Offices/Ministries/Agencies on the developmental outcomes realized through the utilization of national resources previously allocated and approved by Parliament, in this case 2019/20. The 2019/20 outturn on fiscal indicators, recorded a rate of 104% on total revenue collection and an execution rate of 99.2% of total budget expenditure, excluding statutory. The recorded budget execution rate has enabled for the achievement of major programme objectives and outcomes by the various Office/Ministries/Agencies (OMA`s) as reported under each Vote, in this document. During the period under review, the turnaround time for payments suppliers was improved on to be within a month from the date of submissions received by Treasury. However, more still need to be done at the level of each O/M/As to ensure that services rendered and goods delivered to O/M/As are paid within a period not exceeding a month from the date of receipt on the suppliers invoice. This Accountability Report is structured as follows: . Revenue outturn 2019/2020 . Operational Expenditure . Development Expenditure . Total Expenditure Outurn 2019/20 . Budget Deficit Funding and Debt Outturn 2019/20 . Mid-Term Budget Adjustment - 2019/20 . Preliminary Budget Outturn 2020/21 . the mandate of the vote . summary of estimate and actual expenditure per standard subdivision vs the budget per vote, . summary of actual expenditure on programmes vs the budget per vote, . programmes achievements as per the targets in the corresponding 2019/20 Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF), and . overall summary of performance in terms of revenue heads, expenditure outturn and overall fiscal indicators performance, . actual during the Mid-Year Budget Review for the Financial Year 2019/20, . Non-Tax Revenue collected against the budget per Vote. ii BUDGET OUTTURN 2019/2020 1. Revenue outtrun 2019/2020 The actual tax and non-tax revenue outturn for 2019/2020 amounts to N$58.3 billion, which is 4 percent higher the budget estimate of N$55.8 billion.

  • Namibia Crane News 11
    Namibia Crane News 11 July 2005 National B lue crane census proposed The Namibia Crane Working Group is investigating a national Blue Crane census, to obtain an update on numbers. This proposal corresponds with the recom- mended actions from the Red Data Book account for Blue Cranes (see Namibia Crane News No. 6). The last count in December 1994 provided a total estimate of 49 adults and 11 yearlings. It will be interesting to see whether the population is still declining after the recent good rains. Ideally the census would include an aerial survey of Etosha and the grassland areas to the north, together with ground surveys. We are still deciding on the best time of year for the census, bearing in mind that we would like to pick up as many juveniles as Enthusiastic Kasika and Impalila guides out birding possible. Any incidental observations of the other two (Photo: Sandra Slater-Jones) crane species would also be noted, but a full census of help bird enthusiasts find Rosy-throated Longclaw, the latter species would probably be more feasible after Black Coucal, Luapula Cisticola, Slaty egret, African the rainy season, when the non-resident Wattled Skimmer, Swamp Boubou, Western Banded Snake Cranes visit the Nyae Nyae pans.

  • EUS Report Ok.Indd
    1 1. Background In December 2006, the Government of Botswana was informed by the Namibian Government of fish disease outbreaks in the Chobe-Zambezi River. Infected fish were first observed at Impalila Island, Namibia, by the Namibians in October 2006. Similar cases of fish infection were further seen on the Zambian side of the Zambezi River. Subsequent to this, a fish sampling team was assembled by Botswana’s Department of Wildlife and National Parks (DWNP) in mid- December 2006 to undertake surveys in the area to determine if the infection had spread to the Botswana side of the Chobe River. The findings indeed confirmed that the fish infection had spread to the Chobe River. Clinical signs of infected fish included body lesions, skin ulceration and blood patches on the body. However, no dead fish were observed in the Botswana side although reports by Zambia indicated that dead fish were seen by fishers floating in the water, especially in the Kasaya River, a tributary of the Zambezi River. After the confirmation of the occurrence of the infection in the Chobe River, water, tissue, blood and soil samples were collected for further analysis at the National Veterinary Laboratory (NVL) in Sebele, Gaborone, Botswana. A ban on fishing and fish imports from the affected areas was also instituted with immediate effect until further notice. The Government of Namibia had also imposed a fishing moratorium starting from 21 December 2006 to 28 February 2007. The results from the NVL, which concur with those of Namibia, indicated that there was a lot of faecal bacteria in the Chobe River water rendering it unsuitable for drinking.

    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2018 Ruling nature, controlling people: nature conservation, development and war in North-Eastern Namibia since the 1920s Lenggenhager, Luregn Abstract: Recent nature conservation initiatives in Southern Africa such as communal conservancies and peace parks are often embedded in narratives of economic development and ecological research. They are also increasingly marked by militarisation and violence. In Ruling Nature, Controlling People, Luregn Lenggenhager shows that these features were also characteristic of South African rule over the Caprivi Strip region in North-Eastern Namibia, especially in the fields of forestry, fisheries and, ulti- mately, wildlife conservation. In the process, the increasingly internationalised war in the region from the late 1960s until Namibia’s independence in 1990 became intricately interlinked with contemporary nature conservation, ecology and economic development projects. By retracing such interdependencies, Lenggenhager provides a novel perspective from which to examine the history of a region which has until now barely entered the focus of historical research. He thereby highlights the enduring relevance of the supposedly peripheral Caprivi and its military, scientific and environmental histories for efforts to develop a deeper understanding of the ways in which apartheid South Africa exerted state power.

Publisher: Riël Hauman ____________________________________________________________________ EDITORIAL Don’t run too fast down “Chappies”! Marco Mambo, going for a historic fourth win on a beautiful autumn day in Cape Town on Saturday, seemed to have forgotten this Two Oceans Marathon dictum as he charged down the steep descent into Hout Bay from 34 km and faltered after the second big hill, Constantia Nek. A mere 2 km from the finish his dream was shattered by a virtually unknown Kenyan, John Wachira, who went on to win in 3:10:06. The 40 th edition of South Africa’s second biggest ultra was run in almost ideal conditions, yet produced one of the slowest races in recent years as the last gold medal was won in 3:17:11 and only the top four women ran under 4 hours. There was no surprise in the women’s race: the Nurgalieva twins finished first and second. In fact, they crossed the finish line hand-in-hand after having run the whole 56 km together, with the officials giving the win to Elena over Olesya. Their time was 3:40:43 – almost 6 minutes slower than Olesya recorded for her victory in 2008.

  • Supplementary Registration of Voters of Registration Supplementary
    Electoral Commission of Namibia For free, fair and credible elections SUPPLEMENTARY REGISTRATION OF VOTERS 08 – 20 SEPTEMBER 2014 Toll free no: 081 9362 2 Message of ECN Director Register and Let Your Voice be Heard am greatly honored to inform the Namibian Electorate that the Electoral Commission of I Namibia will be conducting Supplementary Registration of Voters in all constituencies of the country from 8 – 20 September 2014. The Registration of Voters will take place at various registration points nationwide and starts from 08H00 in the morning to 19H00 in the evening, Monday to Saturday. No registration shall be done on any Sunday. The Supplementary registration of voters will be conducted for the Presidential and National Assembly Elections. This is to ensure that all eligible persons are registered and are in possession of voters’ cards in order to partake in the upcoming Presidential and National Assembly elections. An efficient voter registration system requires the population to be active in reporting changes of residency and other relevant aspects of their civil status. The Supplementary registration will thus give an opportunity to all citizens that were not able to register during the General Registration of Voters , as well as eligible voters that just turned 18 years to register to vote. The Supplementary registration will also record changes in residency and correct any errors on the electorates’ current registration cards. The Supplementary Registration of Voters is intended to ensure that all eligible citizens can exercise their right to vote during upcoming elections. Registration of voters outside Namibia Amendments made to the Electoral Act in 2009 permits the Electoral Commission of Professor Paul John Isaak Namibia to establish temporary registration points outside Namibia.
