Whether, with reference to her replies to questions (a) 604 on 22 March 2019, (b) 605 on 22 March 2019, (c) 607 on 22 March 2019, (d) 32 on 5 July 2019 and (e) 129 on 5 July 2019, she will furnish Mr M Waters with copies of all (i) correspondence in which her department requested the said information and (ii) the responses from the City of Ekurhuleni; if not, why not? NW198E
The information used to respond to this question was provided by the Gauteng Department of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs.
Reply:
(i) Correspondence concerning PQ 129, PQ 604, PQ 605 and PQ 607 is attached.
(ii) Please see responses to PQ 129, PQ 503, PQ 504 and PQ 505 below.
The response to question PQ 129 is as follows:
(1) (a) There is no legal prescript to conduct an audit on the armoury. In terms of the Firearms Control Act 60 of 2000 an annual stock register must be provided to the Central Firearm Registrar at the end of each year.
The South African Police Service (SAPS), Division FLASH (Firearms, Liquor & 2nd Goods) & CFR (Central Firearm Registry) conduct annual random inspections to confirm full compliance to the Firearms Control Act 60 of 2000.
(b) Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Police Department conducted the current audit. However, the SAPS also conduct formal random inspections every year. The last SAPS Inspection took place during September 2019.
(2) (a) The audit was conducted over a lengthy period to cater for officers on shifts, leave, study- & sick leave. After the audit was completed there were no officers that did not report for the audit.
(b) No action was needed.
(3) (a) The National Police Commissioner has been informed and a national subcommittee to resolve Official Institution Firearm related issues has been established and is meeting on a regular basis. The meeting is chaired by Brig Bopape, SAPS CFR and co-chaired by Brig Spies (EMPD) on behalf of all Metro Police Depts.
(b) No action was needed against individuals as it is a National SAPS CFR Official Institution Firearm register that needs to be updated and corrected by SAPS.
(4) The EMPD is currently updating and modernising its firearm policy in order to align with various legislative prescripts.
The response to question PQ 503 is as follows:
(b) which areas were affected,
(c) what are the reasons for each transgression
(d) what steps is the municipality taking to ensure that it provides basic services to residents according to applicable legislation?
The response to question PQ 504 is as follows:
(1) Please see the attached document for more information on the vehicles that were budgeted for and purchased. The number of refuse collection trucks that were budgeted for corresponds to the number of trucks that were actually purchased.
(2) There were no variances between what was budgeted for and what was actually purchased.
The response to question PQ 505 is as follows:
(b) Where is each depot situated?
