News24.com | Public hearings into political party funding to kick off next month

You Need Posted on by

The Electoral Commission of South Africa (IEC) will next month begin with public hearings into the draft regulations for the Political Party Funding Act in Cape Town, the commission said on Monday. 

The process had been postponed earlier this year to allow the IEC to process “the large number of written submissions”, the commission said in a statement.

The hearings will take place over two days on August 1 and 2.

“Following the successful conclusion of the elections and a high-level analysis of the thousands of written submissions received, the Electoral Commission is now in a position to proceed with the finalisation of the regulations and the implementation of the Act in a phased approach,” said Chief Electoral Officer Sy Mamabolo.

Further, the IEC said it has written to key stakeholders “including all represented political parties, a number of civil society organisations, business associations and those persons who made substantive written submissions inviting them to attend the hearings”.

In terms of the Bill, a donation of less than R100 000 doesn’t need to be declared and there is a cap of R15m that one person can donate to a party per year.

The Bill also states that a party may not accept a donation “that it knows or ought reasonably to have known, or suspected, originates from the proceeds of crime and must report that knowledge or suspicion to the [Electoral] Commission”.

Section 10 of the Party Funding Bill states that “no person or entity may deliver a donation to a member of a political party other than for party political purposes” and a member of a political party may only receive such a donation “on behalf of the party”.

Anyone wishing to make an oral submission at the hearings is requested to advise the commission of their intent via email at RanyaneB@elections.org.za by no later than July 24.

News24.com | Maimane on the DA’s complicated relationship with Mkhwebane: ‘It’s not your office, it’s you’

You Need Posted on by

While DA leader Mmusi Maimane is pleased with Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane’s finding regarding President Cyril Ramaphosa’s campaign funding, he still thinks she should go.

Speaking on the sidelines of a safety event in Bonteheuwel, Cape Town, on Monday, Maimane said he was the one who had laid a complaint about Ramaphosa’s campaign funding with the Office of the Public Protector. 

He noted this was after he had first asked the question in Parliament, and Ramaphosa said it was “his son’s contribution”, but then changed his statement. 

ALSO READ: Public Protector finds Ramaphosa ‘deliberately misled’ Parliament over R500 000 Bosasa payment

“Now, the Executive Members’ Ethics Act makes it specific that when there is an allegation of a breach [of the act], that can only be reported to the Public Protector.

“It cannot be reported to any other sphere of the government.”

The DA has made it clear that it does not regard Mkhwebane as a suitable candidate for the position of Public Protector, and Maimane said the Absa-related judgment supported this. 

On Monday, the Constitutional Court upheld a costs order against Mkhwebane alleging she had put forward a “number of falsehoods” over the Absa/Bankorp investigation. Mkhwebane has since denied this.

“I have been very clear from the beginning with the party that we do not support this particular Public Protector and therefore in light of the judgment that was handed down today, I think it strengthens our case to have her removed,” said Maimane.

“But just because I did not vote for her, just because I don’t support her, does not mean the office ceases to exist,” he said. 

“I did not vote for President Ramaphosa in the election, yet, because he’s a president of the republic, he becomes the president of all citizens. His office exists. We have to hold everybody accountable, regardless of who they are.” 

Maimane said he welcomed Ramaphosa’s announcement on Sunday night that he would take Mkhwebane’s report on review, because it is Ramaphosa’s right to do that.

However, the party still wants to get to the bottom of whether or not the president had misled Parliament. 

“The president made a statement and proceeded to change it, can that be allowed?” asked Maimane.

Health24.com | WATCH: Some plant-based burgers may not be as healthy as they seem, say nutritionists

You Need Posted on by

Better for the environment? Yes. Better for your health? Maybe not.

Nutritionists have cast doubt on some vegan patties, saying that the burgers may be less healthy than beef burgers due to being processed and high in salt.

Dietitian Rachel Fine says, “The problem with a lot of additives is that we just don’t know the long-term effects of them, whereas a beef burger could be just one ingredient: beef.”

Sport24.co.za | Dobson slams Province for lack of passion

You Need Posted on by

Cape Town – Western Province coach John Dobson hit out at his side for not respecting the blue and white jersey after the 32-27 defeat to the Sharks on Saturday.

Province got their Currie Cup campaign off to a winning start with a 20-5 victory over the Blue Bulls at Newlands the week before, but Dobson was at a loss as to why his team ‘were so flat’ at Kings Park this weekend past.

“I don’t know why we were so flat‚” Dobson said.

“Our body language from the start was not good and we were well beaten in the kicking game. Curwin Bosch and Rhyno Smith were exceptional in pinning us back.

“We missed a lot of touch kicks and our exit game was poor. There were some positives such as our set pieces and breakdown work‚ but as Western Province we pride ourselves on our passion of playing for the blue and white hoops‚ and today we didn’t have that,” he said.

“We knew the Sharks would bounce back after last week – they are too good not to. We knew we were in for a tough game. I didn’t expect us to roll over quite like that.

“Unions like ours want to host play-off games so we can’t afford another loss in this shorter campaign.”

Western Province will be up against the Golden Lions at Newlands on Saturday.

Kick-off is at 17:15.

22 July 2019 – R3.5 billion in refunds already paid; taxpayers urged to beat queues and submit online

You Need Posted on by

Pretoria, 22 July 2019 – SARS has already paid out R3.5 billion worth in refunds during Tax Season for eFilers and users of the SARS MobiApp between 01 July to date. During the first week of July, R1.5 billion in refunds were validated and released.

With two weeks left before branch filing opens, taxpayers are encouraged to beat the queues, file their returns on the SARS MobiApp and eFiling, and their claim will be attended to and resolved swiftly, if it is not flagged for audit. Even after the Opening of Branch Filing Season on 1 August 2019, SARS encourages taxpayers to use MobiApp and eFiling for a faster and efficient service. 

Tax filing season opened earlier for users of eFiling and the MobiApp allowing a speedier and convenient filing experience without the need to queue at a branch, offering digital support and services such as Help-You-eFilers that connects the taxpayer to a SARS tax agent for further guidance on eFiling, the call-back functionality on MobiApp and our Chat-Bot that provide real-time answers to Income Tax specific questions.

Once a tax return is assessed and a refund is due, it will take an average of seven days to be paid out, provided that no debt is due, all obligations have been met, and no verification or audit is required. 

To avoid delays, taxpayers are urged to respond to requests for supporting documents and confirmation of banking details.  These are validations that SARS must adhere to.

Taxpayers are also requested to ensure that third-party data from their service providers is correct and where such information is incorrect, it be raised with their service provider for re-submission.

Taxpayers may refer to the SARS Service Charter for service turnaround times.

#BHF2019Conference: Minister outlines private sector’s role in NHI

You Need Posted on by

National Health Insurance (NHI) is not merely a consumption expenditure, but a social investment that is a basis for sustainable and inclusive growth, the recently appointed Minister of Health, Zweli Mkhize told delegates at the Board of Healthcare Funders of Southern African (BHF) conference in Cape Town.

“Inclusive growth will be achieved through a healthy workforce and thus will contribute to poverty reduction, job creation as employment creators are assured of a healthy workforce. Job creation will increase the tax-base of the country and this will result in fiscal sustainability,” he said.

Cabinet recently approved the NHI Bill for tabling in Parliament for public consultation, and the National Department of Health will in the interim be reorganised to support the implementation of NHI. In addition, the NHI Implementation Unit will be established while the legislative processes are underway. This unit will form the embryo of the NHI Fund.

NHI will also require that a digital health information platform that will support the operations of the NHI Fund is established. The Health Patient Registration System will form the backbone of an electronic health patient record on this digital platform.

“We are building the capacity of managers to implement NHI with the support of our international partners. Over 30 managers will leave within the next four weeks to get exposure and learn about NHI in different countries whilst we continue with other initiatives aimed at preparing for NHI implementation,” Mkhize explained.

The role of the private sector

“We view collaboration between the public and private sector role players as crucial, guided by conditions in our country. This is in line with the commitment that we made during the Joint Session of Ministers of Health and Finance during the G20 Summit.

“As an example of this convergence, we envisage greater collaboration between the public and private sectors to revamp our ailing public health infrastructure. We intend to revitalise our infrastructure over a period of 5-7 years and this will be undertaken concurrently as we implement NHI. This will require that we employ creative strategies on financing mechanisms and alternative models of delivering the health infrastructure to ensure that we meet these timelines,” he said.

“Practitioners and providers in the private sector will benefit from improved referral systems, increased pool of empowered users, reduced costs for goods required to provide services, and predictable payment mechanisms.

“The requirement of accreditation will ensure that multi-disciplinary health teams are introduced resulting in the reduction of the workload and more time to dedicate to the patients served,” Mkhize said.

Reimbursement

Alternative reimbursement strategies such as capitation for services delivered at primary healthcare level and diagnosis-related groupers for in-hospital services presents a strong incentive for cost-containment and managing quality and will contribute to the sustainability of healthcare financing.

Regulatory reforms that are envisaged for the private sector

The role of medical schemes will change as NHI will cover the entire population, the minister said. Medical schemes will be required to provide top-up, complementary cover for services not covered under NHI.

“Amendments to the Medical Schemes Act through the Medical Schemes Amendment Bill (MSAB) focus on improving the efficiency in regulating the private medical scheme industry. The comments received after the publication of the Draft Bill in 2018 are still under review.

“The outcomes of the Health Market Inquiry (HMI) into Private Health Sector Costs are also being considered and once these have been finalised, they will assesssed to ensure that they are supporting NHI implementation,” Mkhize said.
