2 THE AFRICA INSTITUTE OF SOUTH AFRICA ANNUAL REPORT 2013/ 2014

Foreword by the Chairperson of Council

The year under review was unusually active for the Africa Institute of South Africa (AISA). Prompted by the 2010 institutional review of AISA, the former Minister of Science and Technology, Mrs Naledi Pandor requested the Department of Science and Technology (DST) to review the role and activities of AISA within the DST mandate. The outcome of this review culminated in a decision to incorporate AISA into the Human Sciences Research Council (HSRC), as an in-house institute within the HSRC, with the emphasis on strengthening the research capacity of AISA and to enhance the synergies between the two institutions. It is pleasing to note that AISA co-operated fully with the DST on the incorporation process which took effect on 1 April 2014.

The AISA Council and management put measures in place to ensure that AISA continued to fulfil its mandate during the period of incorporation and that it adhered to all legislative requirements. All stakeholder engagements and flagship projects such as the Ambassadorial Forum Series, AISA Young Graduate and Scholars, Scramble for Africa Conference, Africa Day EXPO and Archie Mafeje Memorial Lecture were held as planned in collaboration with AISA partners. AISA remained focused and continued to strengthen its mission as an indispensable voice on African affairs.

AISA succeeded in fulfilling its mandate of knowledge production and dissemination on African affairs. In this regard, I would like to share some of the highlights of the 2013/2014 financial year, where

I believe AISA performed well. The quality outputs (journal articles, policy briefs, occasional papers, monographs, book chapters and books, as well as proceedings, seminars and conferences) realised are a product of research conducted by AISA staff and external researchers, mostly African scholars, acting in concert and across all disciplines in line with the current research agenda.

The Publications Division worked extremely hard and published numerous books, policy briefs, monographs and journal articles. The publication of the Africa Yearbook and Africa A-Z books was of momentous importance as these publications are among AISA’s flagship projects that contribute in a meaningful way towards human capital development. The publication of the book on the Centenary of the ANC drew lots of attention among government officials and other stakeholders. The book is titled The future we chose: Emerging perspectives on the Centenary of the ANC and it was launched in January 2014.

In closing, I would like to take this opportunity to convey my sincere gratitude to fellow Council members, AISA management and staff for transforming AISA to a compliant, stable and envied institution. I also wish to thank the DST and the Portfolio Committee of Science and Technology for their unwavering commitment and support.

Interim Chief Executive Officer


Foreword by the Interim CEO

The period under review, 2013/14 is the last year in which the Africa Institute of South Africa (AISA) submits its Annual Report as a government constituted institution. The decision taken by the Department of Science and Technology (DST) to incorporate AISA into the Human Science Research Council (HSRC) takes effect on the 01 April 2014. The year 2013/14 has been extraordinary in that it presented both challenges and opportunities for AISA to be multi-skilled and innovative in order to deliver on its mandate and targets in a year of many obligations and uncertainties. Despite all the adjustments related to the changes, AISA continued to keep its focus in delivering and being the first port of call on African Affairs. AISA ranks 7th in the global Go-To Think Tanks study of the University of Pennsylvania. This report highlights AISA’s performance in the year 2013/14.

The strategic objectives of the AISA for 2013/14 financial year were to:

a) produce and encourage knowledge production and dissemination on African Affairs;

b) increase the reservoir and quality of researchers and develop and implement capacity building programmes;

c) build the AISA image and increase its visibility; d) develop a performance led culture within AISA;

ande) improve the control and governance environment

and compliance with legislation.

Knowledge Production and dissemination on African Affairs

The Africa Institute of South Africa’s Research Agenda 2011-2015 is Seeking Solutions for Africa’s developmental Challenges. In accordance with this agenda, AISA researchers undertook research in eight African countries, Ghana, Rwanda, Mauritius, Botswana, Namibia, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Zimbabwe and South Africa. Two researchers undertook research in Ghana, two in the DRC, four in South Africa and two staff from the research division participated, through the request of the Department of International Relations and Cooperation (DIRCO), as members of the SADC observers of the 2013 Zimbabwe’s General Elections. The research undertaken in this reporting year resulted in publications of peer-reviewed journal articles, policy briefs and monographs, peer-reviewed book chapters from AISA researchers and contracted African Scholars as well as published books written in collaboration with AISA Research Fellows. The Research Division succeeded in meeting its targets for the year and its research outputs resulted in a number of media appearances through radio, television, print and online media.

Researchers presented seminars to our stakeholders after they returned from fieldwork. Seminars presented by external researchers and scholars were also hosted. These seminars together with national and international conferences and workshops enabled us to interact with other scholars and Ambassadors from Africa, Asia, Europe and America. Researchers

Prof. Phindile Lukhele-Olorunju Interim CEO


received invitations to make presentations and give lectures at various institutions in Ethiopia, India, Portugal, America, China, Zimbabwe, and South Africa. These sponsored trips strengthened our partnerships with various institutions in these countries.

The Publications Division published 13 books, including the The Africa Yearbook and Africa A-Z, which are flagship publications of AISA. Four of the 12 book launches hosted this year were AISA books that were marketed through well attended book launches in Tshwane, Rivonia, Eastern Cape, Durban and Cape Town. In addition to the above, 4 Volumes of the accredited AISA journal, Africa Insight, 1 monograph, 2 occasional papers, 21 policy briefs from AISA researchers and partners and; 2 proceedings from our flagship projects were also published. AISA also published the BRICS Think Tank and Academic Forum proceedings as per DIRCO’s request.

Human Capital Development

AISA was able to bring on board six new researchers, three with Doctoral degrees and three with masters degrees. This raised the number of quality researchers to 15 compared to the ten we had last year. AISA researchers without doctorates and masters degrees are registered with tertiary institutions while other staff members were encouraged to pursue further studies through our performance management development programme. Fifteen interns were mentored in this financial year. Eight of the interns that have passed through the Research Division were capacitated in journal article and policy brief writing, conference paper writing and presentations as well as data collection, statistical analysis and project management. Others were mentored in our administration, finance, information technology, publications, library and human resource management departments. AISA interns participate in all AISA flagship projects which gives them practical training in project management and conference organization. One of our interns secured a job at AISA as a junior researcher; others are employed in government departments and the private sector. AISA researchers were encouraged to share their fieldwork experiences with students and academics in tertiary institutions through the AISA Campus Lecture Series. In the 2013/14 financial year lecture series also covered areas of project conceptualization, data

collection and analysis. Our Campus Lecture Series were in various tertiary institutions across the country. The universities visited have expressed appreciation of the lectures and some have requested to have stronger partnerships with AISA in terms of student supervision.

The AISA Young Graduates and Scholars (AYGS) Conference attracted over 200 students representing seven African countries. We also had students from Germany and Japan participating. A total of 48 papers were presented by young graduates and scholars. The quality of the papers by these young scholars has improved over the years and this makes it possible for AISA to publish a selected few in a peer-reviewed book. The conference combined the paper presentation sessions and an academic debate both of which carried prize tags for the overall best paper, best presenter, best debater and other small prizes linked to the different subthemes we had. The French Embassy, Erasmus Mundus Fellowship, DST/NRF, American Embassy, German Embassy and Earth Science made presentations on fellowship programmes that the AYGS participants could consider for building themselves up academically. This year’s conference was in partnership with the University of Johannesburg and we had eight South African universities participating.

The Third Scramble for Africa Conference, with the theme Fifty years after the founding of the OAU: Africa must unite or perish, took place in May 2013. It was hosted by AISA in partnership with the Tshwane University of Technology (TUT), Thabo Mbeki Leadership Institute (TMALI), Statistics South Africa (STATSA), National Research Foundation (NRF), Department of Arts and Culture (DAC), Department of International Relations and Cooperation (DIRCO), Ditsong Museum and the Centre for Black Arts and African Civilization (Nigeria). This conference brought together scholars from Africa and the Diaspora, Canada, USA, UK, Turkey and South America. Topics presented and debated covered areas such as the African Union and Pan-Africanism, trade and development; African Independence, and Afro-centricity vs coloniality. A 25 chapter book from this conference is currently in press. The conference always concludes with a Declaration and the celebration of Africa Day on the 25th May. The AU declared 2013 as a year of celebrating Africa and the OAU at 50. AISA in collaboration with the


Kara Heritage Institute celebrated Black Month on 2 February 2014. This offered an opportunity to Africans to return to their African roots as Sir Seretse Khama noted that, the achievement of the Pan African ideals of self-worth, self-reliance and independence are pillars of the African (i.e. 21st) Century. Africans cannot achieve these ideals without self-knowledge, mastery of African history and culture”.

The Archie Mafeje Memorial Lecture was held in partnership with the Archie Mafeje Memorial Research Institute (AMRI) and Kara Heritage Institute. The lecture was held at the Kara Heritage Institute. The Archie Mafeje Memorial day event began in the morning with a Keynote address by Dr Wally Serote titled “Reflection on Africa’s intellectuals who have shaped the developmental agenda of Africa: past and present”. Also on the panel were Professor Somadoda Fikeni and Mr Khwezi kaMpumulwana. The Archie Mafeje family was represented by Ms Boni Swana. The paper presentations will be published under AISA proceedings.

Library Services

The library continued to expand its services and its holdings. The library boasts an estimated 99,768 holdings and an archival collection of 4,705. Subscriptions to various databases, journals, magazines and others assist researchers and the local community, which patronises our library, with vital information during their research. AISA was able to digitise some of its collections, especially maps, photographs and other AISA books.

Visibility

Significant interaction with the media through radio, TV, print and online media was established to increase our visibility and disseminate information to all levels of our stakeholders within and outside South Africa. AISA was able to keep its stakeholders positive and interested in partnering with us despite the announcement of AISA’s incorporation into HSRC. Discussions from the presentations of the diplomatic community in Pretoria were vibrant and informative to all participants who included a large number of diplomats and attaches from the Pretoria embassies. The South Africa–China Relations at 15 years conference was widely attended and proceedings thereof will be published. The proceedings on the

work done with Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) on Special Economic Zones was published as proceedings after a full day seminar was held. Our interactions with other stakeholders such as international partners remained vibrant. Lectures and presentations were given at the Departments of Defence and Peace and Security Commission of the African Union. AISA also participated in external events organised by our partners such as the China Institute of Research and Development/GIZ, ECAS and the Erasmus Mundus Association of the European Commission. We hosted international visitors from USA, China, Russia, Sri Lanka, India, Ethiopia, South Sudan and Sudan.

Governance environment and compliance with legislation

The Council and its Committees continued with their oversight functions to promote an environment conducive to openness and transparency. In January 2014 AISA and the HSRC submitted one strategic and annual performance plan to the DST. Our quarterly and annual reports were also submitted to the DST.

AISA continued to implement cost saving initiatives to ensure that public funding was spent appropriately with proper accounting thereof. About 95% of the expenditure budget was utilized during the year under review. The 5% variance in spending can be attributed to variances in relation to employee related costs and capacity building programme expenditure. The variances in terms of employee related costs derived from frozen posts in management and other positions.

AISA also invested in the upgrading of IT infrastructure to a virtual environment to contribute to a more effective and efficient business environment.

Internal controls were regularly monitored and areas of concerns were identified and addressed where possible. Finance and HR policies were reviewed and discussed at staff meetings. Management and staff meetings also discussed the internal and external auditor reports. A management workshop was held to discuss risk management and the internal auditor made a number of presentations at staff meetings to assist staff to understand the risks of non-compliance to policies and procedures.

RESEARCH DIVISIONThis report provides AISA’s achievements as per the performance agreement with the Department of Science and Technology. The agreement is based on a shareholder’s compact and annual performance plan.

In this report the following aspects of the agreement are discussed: • Research strategic objectives• Geographic spread of research conducted in

2013/2014 Financial Year• Research projects conducted under AISA’s research

programmes• AISA’s Research Capacity • AISA’s Research Outputs• AISA’s Special Projects• AISA Partners• Resource mobilisation

Research Strategic Objectives

The strategic objectives of AISA have been developed in line with its vision, mission and strategic thrusts as dictated by the legislative mandate. They provide a basis for the formulation of detailed programmes, projects and initiatives.

AISA’s research strategic objectives are:1. Produce and encourage knowledge production and

dissemination on African affairs; 2. Increase the reservoir and quality of researchers

and develop and implement capacity building programmes;

3. Build the AISA image and increase its visibility; 4. Develop a performance led culture within the

organisation; and5. Improve the control and governance environment and

compliance with legislation.

Drivers of AISA Research Agenda

The key drivers of AISA’s research agenda are: a) The South African government priorities (2009-2015)

on education, employment creation, health, rural development and safety and security;

b) the National Development Plan; c) vision of the African Union which seeks “the

actualisation of human dignity, development and

prosperity for the entire African people ...anchored on a vision of an integrated, prosperous and peaceful Africa …driven and managed by its own citizens… and representing a dynamic force in the international arena” and;

d) Department of Science and Technology’s research strategy, ten year innovation plan and human capital development plan for a knowledge based economy.

AISA’s research Agenda

AISA’s research agenda is based on Seeking Solutions for Africa’s Developmental Challenges. It has three broad thematic priorities, which address challenges common to African states:

1. Engendering developmental states in Africa: concentrating on the improvement of public services, health care, access to quality education, poverty reduction, governance and democracy issues as well as an analysis of the effectiveness and impact of African multilateral and global governance regimes.

2. Building cohesive and sustainable communities devoid of conflict, crime and corruption: focusing on fragile states and human security as well as examining the effectiveness of safety and security programmes across the continent.

3. Sustainable resource management and use, rural development, food security and land reform: AISA will intensify studies on food security strategies across the continent and investigate natural resource management in Africa that positively impact on economic growth and sustainable livelihoods.

Each year AISA researchers, through approved research projects strive to cover a combination of the above thematic areas in varying degrees at the national, sub-regional and continental levels. The shareholder’s compact agreed to annually between the Minister and Chair of AISA council incorporates the targets AISA is expected to meet in the annual performance plan and what the Auditor General and Parliament amongst others judge AISA by.

Research is undertaken through three programmes, namely, 1. Governance and Security; 2. Sustainable Development; and 3. Science and Technology.


In addition, AISA collects, collates and analyses data on Africa’s development through its Geo-information systems. Data analysed is presented as maps and as special publications (i.e. Africa at a Glance and Africa A-Z) produced by AISA’s Cartography unit. Both GIS and Cartography service research programmes and external clients.

Model through which AISA executes its mandate:

Research conducted in the 2013/2014 addressed the strategic objectives outlined in the 2013/2014 Annual Performance Plan. These are:

implementing the AISA Research Agenda on “Seeking solutions to Africa’s developmental challenges”;promoting knowledge and understanding of African affairs through leading experts in the Social Sciences, Humanities, Natural Sciences and Technology;

In the year 2013/2014, research was conducted in nine African countries. These are Botswana, Mauritius, Kenya, Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda, Ghana, Namibia, Zimbabwe and South Africa. Through partnerships with the embassies of China and Azerbaijan, AISA was able to extend its research to China and the South Caucasus region. Research outside South Africa was mainly conducted by Research Specialists and Chief Research Specialists. Junior researchers focussed their research within South Africa.

Outputs from conducted research, journal articles, policy briefs, books and book chapters, were based on three broad thematic areas of the research agenda. These are:- a) Engendering developmental states in Africa;b) Building cohesive and sustainable communities

devoid of conflict, crime and corruption; andc) Sustainable resource management and use, rural

development, food security and land reform.

The fieldwork undertaken by researchers was aimed at collecting empirical and primary data from studied countries and the focus this financial year was on: i. From waste to energy: a study on innovations in

municipal solid waste management in two African cities, Nairobi and eThekwini.

ii. Review of the governance and socio-economic impact of Ghana’s Petroleum Revenue Management Act 815 of 2011.

iii. Ecotourism and its impact on gender relations in rural Botswana.

AISA 2013/2014 Research projects

Governance and Security Programme

The Governance and Security programme carries out research and promote policy dialogue on governance, democracy, peace, security and development processes, issues and developments in Africa. In 2013/2014 Governance and Security Programme focused on four main research projects. They are:

“Key Issues in Zimbabwe’s 31 July 2013 Harmonised Elections” was conducted by Sehlare Makgetlaneng who is the first Africa Institute of South Africa (AISA) scholar to be rated by the National Research Foundation. This research provided an in-depth analysis of Zimbabwe’s harmonised or presidential, parliamentary and local government elections. It examined Zimbabwe’s elections in the context of fairness, preparedness and regional impact. It analysed how the representatives of the state, public institutions, capital, civil society organisations, scholars, political analysts, media and intellectuals of Zimbabwe viewed Zimbabwe’s elections. Given the fact that the researcher was a member of the Southern African Development Community Observer Mission to Zimbabwe’s 2013 elections, the research study also examined how some individuals who are not Zimbabwean nationals and citizens viewed Zimbabwe’s 2013 elections during his observations of elections. Issues of interest were the election date, reforms and their implementation, lack of forward movement in the implementation of reforms and the performance of the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) in its efforts to secure the implementation of reforms during its negotiations with the Zimbabwe African National Union – Patriotic Front (ZANU-PF), ZANU-PF’s status as the ruling party without any interruption since 1980 and its consequences in its competition with the MDC. Also of interest was whether the government of national unity was structurally in favour of ZANU-PF or the MDC, whether sanctions were for ZANU-PF or the MDC and whether the United States was a liability or an asset to the MDC. The research generated two journal articles submitted for publication and a seminar presentation. Five policy briefs have been published. The researcher presented his findings at the North-West University, Potchefstroom


Campus. He served as a leader of the AISA delegation, which consisted of Ms. Ithuteng Nkhereanye, Projects Manager, and Mr, Ntshembo Mathye, Governance and Security Programme research intern, to the South African component of the SADC Observer Mission to Zimbabwe’s elections.

“An Assessment of China’s Mineral Industrial Approach to the DRC” was conducted by Funeka Yazini April.

Over the past decades the governance of natural resources has remained a challenge because African governments have been mortgaging their mineral resources at significant costs of zero job creation, zero mineral beneficiation, increased debt, increased de-industrialization, and increased poverty. However, China through its model of infrastructure development in exchange for minerals has begun to change the landscape of resource governance and industrial development. Given the impact of China on mineral industrialization on the continent which is set to increase as African governments have now embraced China for industrial growth, it is critical to assess China’s approach towards the Africa resource infrastructure model. The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and China mineral-infrastructure agreement was proposed as a case study of this research project. The DRC-China agreement is one of the most well-known embodiments of the increasing Chinese mineral-infrastructure agreements on the African continent. This research, whose objectives were to determine whether the China-DRC model could be implemented to promote industrial growth and whether the China-DRC model can be utilized in the MPRDA legislative Act for implementations in provinces like Limpopo and Northwest in South Africa, was conducted in Katanga province, DRC, February 13 -27, 2014.

Through the assistance of the Department of International Relations and Cooperation (DIRCO) the research was expanded by comparing China’s mineral industrial model with the American mining industrial model in the DRC. The researcher was therefore able to visit both Chinese and American mining institutions. The American industrial model is more conducive in addressing socio-economic factors which have contributed to challenges such as Marikana, while the Chinese model is more effective for large scale growth such as roads and infrastructure development.

The findings of this research will be published in accredited journals and a report will be submitted to DIRCO.

“Two decades of mitigating re-representation: An analysis of post-conflict reconstruction in Rwanda and South Africa”, was conducted by Nicasius Achu Check. Two decades ago, the African continent witnessed two dramatic and opposing events: first, was the Rwandan genocide of 1994 and secondly, was the peaceful transition from an apartheid government to democracy in South Africa. The two scenarios, though episodic from 1990 with the release of Nelson Mandela from jail in South Africa and the invasion of Rwanda by the RPF from Uganda, culminated in what many have termed the remaking of modern Africa.

The principal objective for this research was to investigate the level of redress in post-genocide Rwanda and post-conflict South Africa and how other African countries can benefit from the Rwandan and South African model. The study is important in understanding post-conflict nation building dynamics in Africa and how other countries on the globe can benefit from such experiences. The field trip was undertaken in Kigali, Rwanda and surrounding towns. It focused principally on respondents with a deep understanding of the Rwandan post-genocide reconstruction initiatives with a bit of bias towards the ordinary Rwandans and how they perceived reconciliation. The methodological approach was case study in nature and based primarily on interviews and reports pertaining to Rwanda’s mitigation of reconciliation in the post-genocide epoch. Though the trip coincided with the re-occurrence of armed conflict between the M23 and the government of Congo in eastern DR Congo, it did not in any way affect the planned interviews which had been arranged by the research assistant. The South African scenario was based on the review of relevant literature and policy documents pertaining to reconciliation and redress in the country. Lessons learnt from the research were that though major strides have been achieved in both South Africa and Rwanda in terms of redress, a lot still needs to be done to heal the wounds inflicted by centuries of segregation and the alienation of particular ethnic groups in the developmental agenda of both countries. Firstly, the government of both countries need to recognize the ethnic, racial and cultural differences as areas of cooperation not issues that should divide the people. Secondly, there is need for redress to mitigate the challenges caused by centuries of segregation and exclusion.

The findings of the research have been accepted for publication as a journal article in the India Journal of African Studies.


“Peace Missions and Community Security: Peace, Security and Cooperation Framework for the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the Region” was conducted by Sylvester Maphosa. The research was conducted in the Eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (Bukavu and Goma).

Despite many efforts at building peace, the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) continue to suffer from recurring cycles of conflict and persistent violence by armed groups. The sources of insecurity are multifarious contingent with the notion of security which itself connotes different things to different people. Largely, the sources include widespread militarization of social life, politics and economy in the region. Community life and relationships remain torn by intractable violence which generates mistrust and fear, alcohol and drug abuse, depression, internalized cruelty and trauma, interpersonal and household violence, rape, collapsed ties and meeting opportunities between families and ethnic groups and tribes living in the same villages or quarters, resource predation, and inactive community members to address local matters. At the political level, continuing violence undermines countrywide fledgling democratic hard work and dilutes peace initiatives that should be indispensable pillars for reconciliation and development. Fragile conditions also promote authoritarian tendencies at local governance level which reduce accountability and distort representation in policy-making that exacerbate physical hardships like poverty and under-development. The guarantee for national reconciliation and capabilities to foster enduring peace therefore locate within constructive social, political and economic conditions the promotion of human development and the protection of human rights.

On 24 February 2013 eleven countries of Africa signed a Peace, Security and Cooperation Framework for the Democratic Republic of the Congo and region (the PSC Framework), under the auspices of four guarantors, namely, the Secretary-General of the UN, the Chairperson of the AU Commission, the Chairperson of the SADC and the Chairperson of ICGLR (11+4 Framework). Seen as a “framework of hope” the 11+4 epitomizes an avenue of hope for the people of the region to “do more than just attend to the consequences of conflict, or to manage crises of the kind seen … [t]here is a chance to resolve its underlying causes and to stop it for good.” The objective of this study therefore was to explore the normative architecture on the protection of civilians, women and children in eastern DRC and examine how the 11+4 Mechanism and affected communities are operationalizing this concept. The purpose for this was to overcome important knowledge

gaps through in-depth case study analysis of the impact of the 11+4 Mechanism in stimulating community security in the eastern DRC. Despite a fragile buffer created by reinvigorated MONUSCO with FIB presence, many civilians, women and children live under extreme insecurity. The resumption of and intensification of fighting in several pockets of Goma and surrounding Nyiragongo territory in Kivu, put thousands of people in conditions of extreme vulnerability and severely restricted humanitarian access. Largely, the PSC Framework outlines national, regional and international actions to end violence. The operationalization of the mandate is a continuing process of different events and actors, albeit under grim conditions.

Sustainable Development

The sustainable development programme focuses on socio-economic and environmental development issues within the African continent. Its thematic areas include urban planning and development, food security, sustainable production and consumption, land and water resources management, tourism; gender, and methods of improving health systems in Africa. The programme provides policy advice, professional and technical support as well as capacity building. In 2013/2014, the following projects were undertaken:-.

“From waste to energy: a study on innovations in municipal solid waste management in two African cities, Nairobi and eThekwini” was conducted by Dr Trynos Gumbo. Influenced by AISA’s research niche and theme of renewable energy generation this comparative study investigated innovation trends in the management and treatment of municipal solid waste in Africa by drawing comparison between the city of Nairobi and the eThekwini municipality. What the study has unearthed is that for almost a decade now, the eThekwini municipality has demonstrated to the continent that it is possible for African cities to achieve the twin objectives of generating clean renewable energy sources that contributes to economic development while at the same time reducing urban social and environmental problems associated with improper disposal of waste, a common blot on the African city-landscape. The municipality of eThekwini was the first city council not only in South Africa but also in the continent as a whole to initiate and implement a landfill gas to electricity project. Although there are currently no landfill gas to electricity projects in Nairobi, the Kenya Power previously made proposals to determine the levels of methane gas being released at Dandora; the country’s only designated and officially recognised dumpsite. There was also a


team that attempted to study the elements of gases such as carbon dioxide, sulphites and nitrates and methane at the dumpsite. Efforts have also been made by the Kenyan Government to improve municipal solid waste management through the enacting of a wide range of policy, institutional and legislative frameworks. In both cities there have been great efforts to promote the participation of a wide range of stakeholders such as the private sector, communities, youth groups and non-governmental organisations in the quest to ensure sustainable municipal solid waste management. The study produced a policy brief and a journal article. Research findings were presented at various seminars and conferences.

“Review of the governance and socio-economic impact of Ghana’s Petroleum Revenue Management Act 815 of 2011” was conducted by Dr Olivia Lwabukuna. The study was carried out in Tema and Accra, Ghana. The crux of the study was to explore the socio-economic and governance related impact and issues pertaining to the Petroleum Revenue Management Act which was promulgated in 2011 as well as its institutional implementation mechanisms. The Act and related institutions represent a central theme as far as extractive governance in Ghana is concerned. It is a symbol and indication by Ghana of an attempt to circumvent the resource curse that has plagued most resource rich African countries. The findings of the research included a better understanding and interpretation of Ghana’s Petroleum Revenue Management Act. They provided a better view of Ghana’s overall extractive governance architecture. What transpired is that there are numerous other significant institutional players in Ghana. These include monitoring and oversight mechanisms, as well as supporting statutory mechanisms that need to come into effect before the whole system can be effective. The results also included recognition that in as much as governance initiatives were set up in Ghana, and some were working well, small, yet key challenges remained including capacity, funding as well as dissemination issues. It was realised that it is still too early to notice any meaningful socio-economic impacts in Ghana, considering that the system is relatively new and extraction, especially within oil and gas sectors is yet to pick up at optimal levels. Compared to most resources rich African countries it emerged that Ghana is still one of Africa’s stable economies, and the initiatives at hand proved the existence of a mature democracy where the tri-sectoral partnership between government, civil society and private extractors are well respected and functioning. The study further revealed that good lessons can be obtained from the extractive governance system of Ghana,

as far as revenue management is concerned. The study produced one journal article and a policy brief. Findings were presented at a seminar and campus lecture at the University of KwaZulu-Natal.

“Exploration of attitudes towards multiculturalism in the schools of the Kunene Region in Namibia” was conducted by Dr Olga Bialostocka attempts to respond to the question: Does primary education in Namibia cater for a multicultural society? Informed by the concept of peace education, an element of which is multicultural education, the research entails studying attitudes of pupils and school personnel towards multiculturalism. It aims at exploring the awareness of and respect for the country’s cultural diversity in the school setting, understood as a condition for creating a learning environment that would be conducive for children of all cultural groups. The project, which has been designed as a pilot study, was conducted in the chosen primary schools in the Kunene Region of Namibia. The research will yield a policy brief, a journal article and a book chapter. The results were presented at an AISA seminar and some findings were discussed during a Peace Education panel session at the 4th Africa Unity for Renaissance conference 2014.

“Ecotourism and its impact on gender relations in rural Botswana” was conducted by Claudia Forster –Towne. The research was undertaken at an ecotourism camp in Botswana, Meno A Kwena, and its neighbouring community Moreomaoto. This research aimed to understand the total social organisation of labour (using Gluckmann’s theory) and how different labour, both in the home and out, interact and influence one another. The research was critical in its design and sought to understand not only what ‘opportunities’ are available to women (as identified in Botswana’s National Ecotourism Strategy) but to also identify how these ‘opportunities’ are viewed and what they mean in terms of other labour obligations. Further, the research sought to disrupt the binary construction of tourism labour being beneficial for women but troublesome for men by undertaking highly localised and in-depth research which avoided such Cartesian splits. Botswana has a National Ecotourism Strategy which highlights both the positive and negative familial impacts tourism may have. This research used a gendered lens to link the reproductive and productive lives of those working at the camp as well as to consider some of the social impacts the camp has on a rural community in Botswana. In-depth interviews informed by a life history approach were conducted. This research is important not only in its theoretical and methodological contributions but also because gender in


tourism, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, has been a neglected field of inquiry. A paper on the research topic was accepted for presentation at the Gender, Work and Organisation Conference at Keele University in June 2014. Research findings will also be shared with students at the University of Botswana. A journal article and 1 policy brief will be published from this work and this research also forms the genesis of an MA in Tourism currently being undertaken at the University of Johannesburg.

“A sustainable food system for the urban poor in Mamelodi East: A case study of household food consumption” was conducted by Charl van der Merwe. Urban population growth provides new and changing sets of developmental challenges. One of these challenges that particularly seem to be on the rise is urban food insecurity. The main argument is that because of an apparent rural bias towards food security concerns in international, regional and national policy agendas the plight of urban poor, including their vulnerability to food insecurity, is left unattended and thus under researched. Directly linked to this apparent rural bias towards food security issues is the perception that food insecurity in cities can be solved by simply increasing the levels of production of small farmers and agricultural production in rural areas. Furthermore general opinion seems to view food security mainly as a problem of availability of food. This however continues to enforce the view that food security is a rural agricultural issue and an issue of producing sufficient amounts of food, and does not account for the daily struggles of urban dwellers to gain access to that food. This research study therefore sought to increase the understanding of the depth of food insecurity in South African cities and the sustainability of current food systems in South African cities by using food supply and distribution and food consumption patterns of poor urban households as a lens through which urban food insecurity can be assessed. The study shows that financial resources coupled with unemployment or a lack of stable permanent employment is still one of the biggest hindrances in ensuring sustainable household food security and that social grants are still the biggest financial resource for the survival of poorer households in South Africa. In terms of access to food the study highlights the importance of ‘spaza’ shops for the food security of poor urban households. Urban agriculture in the form of vegetable gardens, ranging from very small to very big, was in some study sites a very critical source of food for households and the larger community. The research findings were already presented on two occasions – at the researcher’s post-fieldwork seminar as well as during a Campus Lecture at the University of Venda. Furthermore the research will have

three written research outputs – a policy brief, a journal article and the researcher’s Masters Dissertation.

Science and Technology Programme

The programme seeks to provide evidence based guidance on policy developments in areas of urban dynamics, green economy, energy systems, and human induced hazards. The programme strives to establish, participate in and maintain networks across Africa that will contribute to the successful development and prosperity of the continent. Factors and the environment that enable the Science and technology programme to conduct its research in Africa are:a) The increasing role of Science innovation in guiding

government policies and development strategies. b) The need to analyse public understanding of science

so as to provide governments with insight into society’s attitudes, understanding, aspirations and opinions regarding Science.

In 2013/2014 the Science and Technology programme focused on global environmental change, an overarching challenge facing the world today. The programme embarked on field based “analysis of effective energy mix for developing economies”, a research conducted by Shingirirai Mutanga. The fieldwork based research showed that emerging economies’ development priorities are shaping energy markets. Emerging economies are expected to make up the bulk of growth in demand for energy in the coming decades, with countries outside the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) accounting for 83 percent of expected growth in energy demand between 2008 and 2035. As the global centers of expansion, these countries will increasingly influence how new energy markets evolve–commercial frameworks, technology sharing and development, regulations, and preferences for fuels and technologies that meet their societies’ needs. In addition like most small islands, developing states with no indigenous reserves of fossil fuels, and no electricity interconnection, the case of Mauritius demonstrates its vulnerability to the risk of being without power and transport in the event of geo-political, economic or natural crisis. Policy development to ensure energy security thus will involve diversification of energy resources.

AISA Research Capacity

During the reporting financial year Research Division was operating at 100% capacity. We had 15 researchers.


Sixty percent of AISA researchers have PhDs, 10% have Masters Qualifications and 30% are registered for their PhDs. This is a huge improvement compared to previous years. The full research capacity contributed significantly towards AISA meeting its targets and in some instances exceeding them.

AISA Internship programme

In line with South Africa’s human capital development strategy, AISA’s internship programme provides an opportunity to young South African graduates to gain work exposure and experience in research. A total of six interns were hosted by the AISA research division in the current reporting year. These made significant contribution to AISA’s publication outputs in the form of policy briefs and media comments (Appendix table C). AISA’s interns participate in all AISA flagship projects which gives them practical training in project management and conference organization. One of our interns secured a job at AISA as a junior researcher; others are employed in government departments and the private sector.

Research Outputs

The research output for AISA continued to grow, with footprints of research and publication being extended to the South Caucasus region, China and Africa at large. Twenty two journal articles (16 of which were published in accredited journals); 40 policy briefs, 3 books, 51 book chapters, and 2 occasional papers and 1 seminar proceedings were published in the 2013/2014 Financial Year. In addition presentations were made, nationally and internationally, at 68 conferences/seminars and workshops (Appendices A, B and C).

Expert opinions and Media visibility

The influence of AISA as the first point of contact for social and political developments in the continent has increased significantly over the years. AISA researchers are constantly invited by the media to comment on events and developments as they happen in Africa. Invitations increased from 90 to 104 in this reporting year. The issues researchers are requested to comment on include:• Political climate in Africa • Conflict and conflict resolution in Africa• The African Union• Environment• Climate change• Science and Technology• Investment trends and environment in Africa• Food security in Africa• Facts and some statistical data on Africa• Elections in Africa• Future predictions of Africa• Country Profiles

The inputs of AISA researchers on these issues has been impressive, with demand for AISA opinions on African affairs being on its highest levels (Appendix C).

Geo-information services and Cartography

The AISA Geo-information services and Cartography prides itself with a state of the art Web based portal (AISA geo-portal) which is a data gateway to Africa, with spatial data sets and spatial data services on socio-economic, demographic and geographical data for the continent. The portal contains a collection of historical maps on Africa estimated at 5 000.

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Cartography unit continue to serve as an integral arm for AISA’s research programmes. It plays a pivotal role in knowledge creation and understanding of African affairs. The unit serves as research laboratory and provide a kit of tools for data collection, collation and analysis in implementing AISA’s

Research Agenda. The unit retained its strategic vision of becoming an innovative geospatial hub for promoting excellence in the production and dissemination of spatial information on Africa.

Specific products are:• Geo-portal: www.ai-geoportal.org.za• Africa Fast Facts• Africa Focus.• Thematic Maps on Africa• Africa at a Glance• Africa A-Z Continental and Country Profiles• Historical Photo Collection

During this reporting period the unit has ensured maintenance and upgrading of AISA Geo-portal. This has seen the release of a new aesthetic look of the portal. Essentially the portal remains as a platform for accessing spatial datasets and data services in particular socio-economic, demographic and geographical; data for the continent.

The unit continues to provide a wide range of services to its clients. During this Financial Year the unit has witnessed a rising demand for its services from its researchers and external clients. The production of AISA’s unique Maps on Africa has risen from 50 to 55. Such maps include land

use change patterns, maps on epidemics, humanitarian crisis, IDPs and mapping of human induced hazards such as floods. Other maps produced were specific flagship products such as Africa in Focus, Africa at a glance and Africa A-Z.

Capacity Building in GIS and GIS Knowledge Dissemination.

The unit managed to participate in school outreach programmes together with the library and documentation services. The provinces visited were KZN, Free State and North West. The main purpose of the outreach was to provide career guidance to Grade 12 learners encouraging the learners to take up research and GIS as possible careers and to promote African awareness. It has been observed that many learners are not exposed to the field of social science and have no knowledge of careers such as GIS and Cartography.

The unit also participated in key international forums in the GIS sector among them was the Africa Geospatial Forum conference where AISA team, Ms Elize Van As and Mr Muhammad Oumar exhibited as an institutional partner and Mutanga Shingirirai convened the session on GIS applications in hazards and also presented on the role of GIS in monitoring human vulnerability to climate change extremes such as floods.

Cataloguing and Digitising of Maps and Photo collection

This exercise had begun the previous financial year with AISA holding a collection of unique maps and photos on Africa dating back to early 1960. The digitisation process aims at ensuring that these are well preserved and easily accessible by many South Africans, and the world at large. A total of 12 maps and 64 photos were digitised, edited and CATALOGUED on the WIZCAT.


AISA’s Flagship publications

Through its flagship publications Africa A to Z, The State of Africa and Africa at a Glance, AISA provides an up to date information on the profiles of all 54 member countries of Africa and also gives an analysis of the state of an identified discipline or area of importance in Africa. These three important books are published once in two years and in 2012/2013 AISA published Africa A to Z and The State of Africa. The 2013/14 flagship book Africa at a Glance has been compiled for publication but awaits update on vital information that can only be obtained after the elections that have to take place in the months of May to August 2014. Publishing the book without this information would defeat the purpose as it is also published once in two years. This book will therefore be published in October 2014.

Published Books

Three books were published in 2013/2014 through the commissioning and engagement of AISA Research Fellows. These books also contain book chapters contributed by AISA researchers. Details on each book can be obtained from the report by the Publications Division. The books are:• Indigenous People’s Rights edited by R. Laher and K.

SingOei. • Renegotiating the social contract in Africa, edited by

Dr O. Osha. • African Union Ten Years After: Solving African

problems with Pan-Africanism and the African Renaissance edited by Mammo Muchie, Phindile Lukhele-Olorunju and Benjamin Akpor.

Fifth Archie Mafeje Memorial Lecture

In collaboration with the Archie Mafeje Research Institute (AMRI) and the Kara Heritage Institute AISA held its Fifth Annual Archie Mafeje Memorial Lecture on the 28th of

March 2014 at the Kara Heritage Institute. The Annual Archie Mafeje Memorial Lecture Series celebrates the memory of the late Prof Archie Mafeje, an inspiring figure who worked tirelessly to highlight the importance of being an African through self-knowledge, self‐control and self-emancipation. The Annual Memorial Lecture is one of the many ways in which AISA is preserving the ideas and the intellectual capital of African scholars. Dr Wally Serote gave a keynote address titled “Reflection on Africa’s intellectuals who have shaped the developmental agenda of Africa: past and present”. Also on the panel were Professor Somadoda Fikeni and Mr Khwezi ka-Mpumulwana. The Archie Mafeje family was represented by Ms Boni Swana. The paper presentations will be published under AISA proceedings. Third Scramble for Africa Conference now renamed Africa Unity for Renaissance Conference

The theme for the year was ‘Fifty years after the founding of the OAU: Africa must unite or perish’’. It took place in May 2013 and was hosted by AISA in partnership with the Tshwane University of Technology (TUT), Thabo Mbeki Leadership Institute (TMALI), Statistics South Africa (STATSA), National Research Foundation (NRF), Department of Arts and Culture (DAC), Department of International Relations and Cooperation (DIRCO), Ditsong Museum and the Centre for Black Arts and African Civilization (Nigeria). This conference brought together scholars from Africa and the Diaspora, Canada, USA, UK, Turkey and South America. Topics presented and debated covered areas such as the African Union and Pan-Africanism, trade and development; African Independence, Afro-centricity vs Coloniality. A 24 chapter book from this conference has been submitted for publication. The conference always concludes with a Declaration and the celebration of the May 25 Africa Day.

Africa Day Celebration

In 2013, the AU declared the whole year as a year of celebrating Africa and the OAU at 50. AISA in collaboration with the Kara Heritage Institute celebrated Black Month on 2 February 2014. This offered an opportunity to Africans to return to the African roots as Sir Seretse Khama noted that, “The achievement of the Pan African ideals of self-worth, self-reliance and independence are pillars of the African (i.e. 21st) Century. Africans cannot achieve these ideals without self-knowledge, mastery of the African history and culture”.


AISA Campus lecture Series and seminars

AISA’s campus lecture series seeks to share African experience with university students and the public that is interested in gaining knowledge about Africa. In 2013/2014 a total of 577 students were reached at the Universities of Venda, North West, KZN and Johannesburg. For the first time, this year, AISA researchers also shared their knowledge with the FETs.

AISA Ambassadorial Forums

The Ambassadorial Forum is one of AISA’s flagship projects that provides a platform for Diplomats, Civil Society and Think tanks to define their foreign policies, investments and market opportunities of their countries. It is a pivotal part of AISA’s outreach strategy of which its main partner has been the City of Tshwane. The continued partnership with the City of Tshwane remains an important part of AISA’s strategy. Being residence to at least 132 diplomatic missions, the City of Tshwane can be viewed as Africa’s leading capital of excellence.

AISA Young Graduates and Scholars’ Conference

This conference took place in February 2014 and it attracted over 200 students representing seven African countries. We also had students from Germany and Japan participating. There were 48 papers presented by young graduates and scholars. The quality of the papers that were presented by these young scholars has improved over the years and this makes it possible for AISA to publish


a selected few in a peer-reviewed book. The conference combined the paper presentation session and an academic debate both of which carried prize tags for the overall best paper, best presenter, best debater and other small prizes linked to the different sub-themes we had. The French embassy, Erasmus Mundus fellowship, DST/NRF, American (Fulbright) Embassy, German Embassy and Earth Science made presentations on fellowship programmes that the AYGS participants could consider for building themselves up academically. This year’s conference was in partnership with the University of Johannesburg and we had eight South African universities participating.

AISA Partnerships

AISA partners continue to be of great value in implementing AISA’s strategy. With limited resources our partners have served as reliable alternatives. The following projects have been successfully implemented with partners in 2013/2014:

AISA’s Young Graduate and Scholars Conference in partnership with the University of Johannesburg, ICSU and Kara Heritage Institute.

Fellowship for AISA Researcher awarded by the Embassy of Azerbaijan:

Through its annual fellowship programme, the Embassy of Azerbaijan awarded Dr Makgetlaneng a fellowship. Through the fellowship opportunity Dr Makgetlaneng served as a Visiting Research Fellow at the Center for Strategic Studies, Economic Analysis and Global Affairs Department in Baku, Azerbaijan from January to April 2014. His research fellowship topic was: Azerbaijan as a Regional Economic Driver. He presented a paper, Azerbaijan as a Regional Economic Driver: Opportunities and Challenges. The fellowship programme is jointly organised by the Azerbaijan International Development Agency and the Center for Strategic Studies. It is designed to provide foreign research fellows with extensive knowledge on Azerbaijan’s geopolitics, energy and foreign policy strategy as well as regional security issues, involving the South Caucasus and Central Asia.


SafeThink Scholarship Programme, in partnership with the Embassy of France

Through its Safethink Scholarship programme the embassy of France continues to partner with AISA and other Think tanks in providing South Africans with an opportunity to study in any of the prestigious institutions in France. The programme was launched in 2010 with the view of strengthening the connections between South African research institutions and their French counterparts. The programme objectives are i) to integrate French, European and francophone African Scientific networks, ii) establish sustainable cooperation between South African Think Tanks and their French Counterparts.

South Africa’s Competitiveness research programme in partnership with Brand SA

Brand South Africa and AISA signed a cooperation agreement with the purpose of collaborating on a strategic research project titled South Africa In(c). Brand South Africa’s work, as official marketing and reputation management Agency of South Africa, deals in the realm of perception management. The collaborative research is based on a unique multi-disciplinary methodological and theoretical approach. It aims to assist with the development of insight into perceptions of selected African countries on South Africa.

Economic Policy Forum (EPF) in partnership with CIRD and GIZ

The economic Policy Forum is an alliance of think tanks from emerging economies as well as from selected developed economies, including Germany. The key objective of EPF is to provide a platform for knowledge sharing and collaborative, policy-oriented research on key economic policy challenges faced by emerging economies, in particular on the stability of the world economy and the quality of growth. In supporting research findings into domestic and international reform processes, EPF seeks to contribute to better-informed policy making, in emerging economies and globally. In addition, EPF aims at strengthening the capacity of think tanks to better shape policy making processes. AISA has been e member of EPF since its inception two years ago.


Resource mobilisation

The research division was able to raise more than R2 million through partnerships, sponsorships and commissioned work. This represents a significant improvement from previous years.

Books

1. Bondage of Boundaries and Identity Politics in Postcolonial Africa: The ‘Northern Problem’ and Ethno-Futures

What has confounded African efforts to create cohesive, prosperous and just states in postcolonial Africa? What has been the long-term impact of the Berlin Conference of 1884-5 on African unity and African statehood? Why is postcolonial Africa haunted by various ethnonational conflicts? Is secession and irredentism the solution? Can we talk of ethno-futures for Africa? These are the kinds of fundamental questions that this important book addresses.

Sabelo J. Ndlovu-Gatsheni and Brilliant Mhlanga’s book introduces the metaphor of the ‘northern problem’ to dramatise the fact that there is no major African postcolonial state that does not enclose within its borders a disgruntled minority that is complaining of marginalization, domination and suppression. The irony is that in 1963 at the formation of the OAU, postcolonial African leaders embraced the boundaries arbitrarily drawn by European colonialists and institutionalised the principle of inviolability of ‘bondage of boundaries’ thereby contributing to the problem of ethno-national conflicts.

The successful struggle for independence of the Eritrean people and the secession of South Sudan in 2011 have encouraged other dominated and marginalised groups throughout Africa to view secession as an option. Ndlovu-Gatsheni and Mhlanga successfully assembled competent African scholars to deal exhaustively with various empirical cases of ethno-national conflicts throughout the African continent as well as engaging with such pertinent issues as Pan-Africanism as a panacea to these problems. This important book delves deeper into complex issues of space, languages, conflict, security, nation-building, war on terror, secession, migration, citizenship, militias, liberation, violence and Pan-Africanism.

2. Nationalism and National Projects in Southern Africa: New Critical Reflections

Despite the fact that nationalism and its national projects have in recent years been severely criticised by postcolonial theorists for being essentialist, fundamentalist and archaic; by feminists for being patriarchal and exclusive; by global financial institutions for being antagonistic to development and globalisation; by pan-Africanists for being anti-continental unity; and by those Africans born after decolonization for being irrelevant; Sabelo J. Ndlovu-Gatsheni and Finex Ndhlovu’s book convincingly argue that nationalism has defied its death and displayed remarkable resilience and resonance. Since the end of the Cold War, what has been poignant has been the enduring contest, tensions and contradictions between the growth of various forms of transnationalism on the one hand and a resurgence of territorial as well as other narrow and xenophobic forms of nationalism on the other. In this important book, Ndlovu-Gatsheni and Ndhlovu provides new critical reflections on nationalism and its national projects in Southern Africa covering South Africa, Zimbabwe and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC, a member of SADC). The national question is interrogated from different disciplinary vantage points to reveal how it impinges on contemporary challenges of nation-building, development, devolution of power, language questions, and citizenship on the one hand and ethnicity, nativism and xenophobia on the other.

3. African Union Ten Years After: Solving African problems with Pan-Africanism and the African Renaissance

This book deals with The Africa Union Ten Years After: Putting Africa First is Putting Humanity First. This is the second in a series of books to be produced each year by holding annual conferences on the multi-faceted issue of African liberation.


The key themes of the book explore ways of strengthening and improving the efficiency of the African Union, unity amongst African countries, building ownership of the African Union by the people and communities and the entrenchment of Pan-Africanism as a viable programme of action to unite Africans by appreciating differences. In addition, the thought of the key figures of Pan-Africanism and black emancipation such as Sylvester Williams and Frantz Fanon is re-positioned to even greater contemporary relevance so that thoughts that stimulate Africans to stand up together to go far and never again all into humiliation are enriched. We trust this book will add interest, identity and fresh thinking on how Africans move forward together by promoting, with high social and trust capital, Pan-Africanism and the African Renaissance to enter a post-colonial era where policies and actions are determined by the united agency of free Africans the world over.

4. Laying the BRICS of a New Global Order: from Yekaterinburg 2009 to eThekwini 2013

The contributions in this compilation on the emergence of a new global order through BRICS serve to illustrate the complexities inherent in the creation of such a coalition – alternatively referred to as a “grouping”, “association” or “forum” – with each country differently situated geo-politically as well as ideologically and culturally, and in some instances even in conflict with one another in matters of regional peace and security. The fact that there are important commonalities of converging interests, amongst others, the status of emerging economic powers and the furtherance of South-South cooperation as well as reforming global governance, cannot and should not hide complexities and contradictions. These are clearly apparent both within and between the BRICS countries. These diversities are also clear from the varied perspectives of the chapter authors in this compilation, which is why we have assembled this collection relatively loosely as a means of expressing our intellectual and analytic convergences and divergences within and across BRICS. Each chapter contributor writes from a different discipline, country and regional perspective, and it is this diversity that enriches the debate and conversation. As such, there remains enormous room for debate on the subject matter of this book and the diverse contributions open up the parameters of the debate even further. The aim is to ensure that scholars, commentators and practitioners continue to engage critically with theory and practice related to global multilateralism, and BRICS in particular.

5. The Educational Dream: Rethinking Educational Transformation in Zimbabwe

The role of education in human wellbeing and social development cannot be overestimated. After a number of highly commendable policies on education in the first decade of independence, the education system in Zimbabwe has taken a tumble that needs both examining and rectifying. This volume analyses the challenges facing the education system in Zimbabwe and explores and scrutinises theoretical and practical possibilities for restoring the educational dream that was initiated at independence in 1980. The book is targeted at academics, scholars, college and university students, policy makers and other stakeholders and advocates a multi-pronged approach that must involve all stakeholders if educational retransformation, reconstruction and restoration are to be achieved. The authors provide a range of recommendations for a project that would restore the educational dream in Zimbabwe.

6. The Future We Chose: Emerging Perspectives on the Centenary of the ANC

This book foregrounds emerging and different perspectives on the centenary of the ANC which was celebrated in February 2012. Differing in tenor, methodology and style, we present nineteen chapters that tackle various epochs and events in the making of the centenary of the oldest political organisation in Africa. The book offers new angles to our understanding of what sustained the ANC over one hundred years in spite of all the internal and external contradictions.

There is arguably a view that part of what distinguishes the ANC from other revolutionary movements in the continent is that from the turn of the twentieth century its founders prioritised national unity across tribal, ethnic, linguistic, religious, gender and racial identities. This ideal of national unity informed their responses to the formation of the Union of South Africa in 1910 and the declaration of the South African Republic in 1961. In principle, the leadership was opposed not to these manifestations of concrete nation state formation but to the practice of excluding the majority of South African citizens according to racial markers.


As a contribution to the historiography of the ANC and that of South Africa which it was established to liberate, the book tackles the following critical questions: what traits in the ANC’s genetic code have kept it alive for one hundred years? Is the ANC on course to meeting its historical mission of building an equitable, non-racial, non-sexist and socially-democratic society as articulated in the Africans’ Claims, the Freedom Charter and the Strategy and Tactics documents? Finally, would the ANC continue to retain relevance for a bicentenary especially as it now contends with new internal and external contradictions in an increasingly unequally society and unipolar world order? This new hypothetical architecture, hopefully, will be employed by many others engaged in the study of the rise and fall of political organisations.

7. Africa Yearbook (9) 2012

The Africa Yearbook covers major domestic political developments, the foreign policy and socio-economic trends in sub-Sahara Africa – all related to developments in one calendar year. The Yearbook contains articles on all sub-Saharan states, each of the four sub-regions (West, Central, Eastern, Southern Africa) focusing on major cross-border developments and sub-regional organizations as well as one article on continental developments and one on African-European relations. While the articles have thorough academic quality, the Yearbook is mainly oriented to the requirements of a large range of target groups: students, politicians, diplomats, administrators, journalists, teachers, practitioners in the field of development aid as well as business people.

The Africa Yearbook has won the ASA 2012 Conover-Porter Book Award!

8. Social Contract in Africa

This book employs the event of the Arab Spring revolution of 2011 to reflect on the event itself and beyond. Some of the chapters address the colonial encounter and its lingering reverberations on the African socio-political landscape. Others address the aftermath of large scale societal violence and trauma that pervade the African context. The contributions indicate the range of challenges confronting African societies in the postmodern era. They also illustrate the sheer resilience and inventiveness of those societies in the face of apparently overwhelming odds.

What is the nature of political power in contemporary Africa as constituted from below instead of being a state-driven phenomenon? What constitutes sovereignty without recourse to the usual academic responses and discourses? These two questions loom behind most of the deliberations contained in this book with contributions from an impressive field of international scholars.

9. Building Peace from Within: An Examination of Community-Based Peacebuilding and Transitions in Africa

This book seeks to examine how successful models of building ‘peace from within’ in the African context function. It draws emerging lessons to provide critical recommendations on policy, practice and academia – our primary audience. While there are numerous examples of failures of conflict resolution in Africa, shown by intractable conflict axes, less attention is paid to successes. While acknowledging the challenges that exist, this edited volume provides positive examples of building peace from within in fragile contexts through many forms of initiatives and actions at different levels: community-based (through individual and/or collective local peace initiatives), government (through ministries and/or departments), and regional (through external and/or multilateral infrastructure for peace). As a guiding principle the notion of building peace from within draws from the idea of community regeneration, which describes voluntary and peaceful activities of grassroots actors that reflect their broader interests of building peaceful communities and existence.

10. Indigenous People in Africa: Contestations, Empowerment and Group Rights

Decolonisation in Africa did not lead to an era of extensive restitution of land to indigenous peoples whose ancestral homelands were forcefully seized by European colonialists. Since independence most African nation-states have failed to remedy the ongoing dislocation of indigenous communities. Instead the view adopted – either through express


policy or benign neglect – is that the imperatives of a modern developmental state is incompatible with the recognition of indigenous property systems. Consequently, most post-colonial African states actively block or stifle claims of past appropriations while asserting contemporary land grabs. This undemocratic injustice is manipulated by ‘new’ political and economic elites in much the same manner – and often with the same violent outcomes – as it was during the era of European colonisation.

This is the troubling context of indigenous life in post-colonial Africa. It was against this backdrop that the decade-long struggle for recovery of Endorois land in Kenya ensued. Though that struggle continues, what is significant for indigenous rights in Africa and elsewhere is that the Endorois case led to a groundbreaking decision by the African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights (ACHPR). The decision provides a critical and provocative space to evaluate the place and meaning of customary based property rights systems in Africa.

The Endorois case establishes a new and vibrant continental narrative on the relationship between the post-colonial African nation-state and indigenous peoples. This space will no doubt prompt reflective discussions about the character and content of the post-colonial nation-state: its developmental aspirations, the context and substance of indigeneity and indigenous rights, the role of ancestral land and natural resources, the purpose of culture and language preservation, gender equity imperatives, environmental conservation, democratic representation and citizenship, among others.

This volume is an attempt to provide this intersectional and reflexive space. The thinking behind the book began in Lamu in mid-2010. It was a time when growing community resistance emerged towards the Kenyan government’s plan to build a second seaport under a trans-frontier infrastructural project known as the Lamu Port- South Sudan-Ethiopia Transport Corridor (LAPSSET). The editors agreed that a book that draws community activists, academics, researchers and policy makers into a discussion of the predicament of indigenous rights and development against the backdrop of the Endorois case was timely and needed.

Assembled here are the original contributions of some of the leading contemporary thinkers in the area of indigenous and human rights in Africa. The book is an interdisciplinary effort with the single purpose of thinking through indigenous rights after the Endorois case but it is not a singular laudatory remark on indigenous life in Africa. The discussion begins by framing indigenous rights and claims to indigeneity as found in the Endorois decision and its related socio-political history. Subsequent chapters provide deeper contextual analysis by evaluating the tense relationship between indigenous peoples and the post-colonial nation-state. Overall, the book makes a peering and provocative contribution to the relational interests between state policies and the developmental intersections of indigeneity, indigenous rights, gender advocacy, environmental conservation, chronic trauma and transitional justice.

Library and Documentation Services


1. Background information

The Library and Documentation Services (LDS) was established in 1960 and has been growing ever since. It is the leading library on Africa and African affairs and always supports the institutional vision of being ‘the indispensable African voice on African affairs’.

Key Performance Indicator (KPI) Targets

The following key performance targets were set for the financial year 2013/14:

1.1 Expanding the LDS holdings; 1.2 Providing efficient and effective services to

clients; 1.3 Creating increased awareness of AISA mandate,

products and services; and 1.4 Knowledge creation and dissemination.

2. Expanding the LDS Holdings

LDS supports the mandate of AISA through growing the specialised collection of materials on Africa and African affairs. It seeks to hold publications on politics, economics, social issues, security, peacekeeping, human rights, elections and geo-political issues in Africa. During the year, 101 books were procured, of which only 45 were received during this reporting period. Furthermore 159 exchange publications, 13 annual reports (14 volumes) and 62 donations were received. LDS received 349 individual direct subscription periodicals this financial year. One new additional periodical titled, China Action Money was added in the collection.

The library collection is not only built through purchases but through exchanges as well. Exchanges occur through agreements made with other institutions whereby they provide us with various publications and we provide the same service. This year saw a decline in the number of exchange publications received. To date 134 exchange publications have been cancelled due to lack of funds from the institutions that we have agreements with. Because of online publishing and the decline of hardcopy material some

work no longer exists and some institutions are no longer interested in exchanges.

LDS holdings are also expanded through an electronic database (DM5) of daily newspaper articles covering political, economic and social aspects on Africa. A total of 1 689 newspaper articles were profiled on DM5. Through this database AISA’s own researchers and external clients can keep up to date with the latest information on Africa in the printed media.

3. Providing efficient and effective services to clients

Clients in this regard refer to researchers, internal and external, other internal departments, government departments, city councils/municipalities, private sector organisations, multi-national companies, non-governmental organisations, embassies, tertiary institutions and the general public. Clients are mostly from the Department of International Relations and Cooperation (DIRCO), South African National Defence Force (SANDF), Development Bank of Southern Africa (DBSA), local universities, such as North West University (NWU), University of Zululand (Unizulu), Thabo Mbeki African Leadership Institute of UNISA (TMALI), and also international universities, such as the University of Bologna in Italy. Embassies such as the Nigerian High Commission and other institutions like the South African National Academy of Intelligence also access our services.

AISA researchers and staff utilise the library more than other user groups. Figure 1 outlines client’s usage of the library during the reporting period. Clients generated a number of enquiries ranging from social issues to political, education, economic, developmental issues, industrial development, drugs, terrorism, and international relations. Other topics include the impact of global warming on human security, South African foreign policy, Africa-China relations, economic integration in SADC, and South Africa’s role in the economic development of the SADC region, to name but a few.

The library subscribes to various databases namely: 1. African Journals Online (AJOL): This is a database

of online academic journals that allows paid for and open access to African-origin research output.

2. Wizcat: Allows LDS to perform everyday library activities, such as cataloguing, circulation, patron data facilities, acquisitions, serials management and access to library holdings’ records. This web based database allows our clients to search the library catalogue from anywhere in the world via the internet.

3. SABINET Request: Facilitates access to electronic information with value added access to both hard copies and electronic collection from African wide library and information organisations. Enhances resources sharing for and from LDS.

4. DSpace: An open source repository software focused on delivering digital content to end users. It enables institutions to capture and describe digital works using a submission workflow platform and distributes those digital works over the web through a search and retrieval system. This is of great value for remote access to LDS electronic resources and for preservation purposes.

5. EBSCOHOST: Political Science Complete Product: An electronic system that contains full text for journals, indexing, abstracts, reference books, monographs and conference papers including those of the International Political Science Association. It has a worldwide focus on globalisation of contemporary political discourse.

6. Economic Intelligence Unit (EIU): This provides quarterly country reports, profiles and country forecasts on more than 200 countries.

7. E-Technologies – DM5: It assists the library in building valuable and current information that assists AISA researchers and external clients in doing research and keeps them updated on the

latest information published in the print media. The information is collected and profiled into e-docs from different sources like newspaper clippings, internet sources and journal articles.

8. SABINET: Sabicat facilitates access to electronic information. It provides both library and digital collection of management systems. It hosts a large collection of access journals and these journal collections are widely used by both local and international organisations.

The value added by subscriptions to several databases is the wider scope of access to information for all its users. AISA also contributes new books and journals, bibliographic information and abstracts to NISC database, currently known as EBSCOhost, which allows marketing of the organisation and increases revenue as royalties are paid for any access to the database by clients.

As required by the Auditor General, and for the promotion of efficient administration and management of AISA records, LDS provides guidance on maintenance, retention and storage of official AISA records based on a legal and official file plan. Record Management inspections are carried out in the Publications division, CEO’s Office, COO’s Office, Finance division, Human Resources division, Internal Auditor’s Office, Administration division and the Research division. Reference numbers are given out according to the file plan.

Visits are continuously made to researchers to promote the library databases. Researchers and interns are trained to use the LDS databases. Articles based on researchers’ fields of interest were sent out to keep them abreast with the latest development in their fields of research. As a way of increasing the lifespan of LDS’s journals preservation methods are undertaken through a binding project.

4. Creating increased awareness of AISA’s mandate, products and services

This target is fulfilled through school outreach programmes, seminars, conferences and the hosting of different events and meetings. The LDS hosted 4 seminars during this financial year. LDS hosted the first seminar in conjunction with the University of Limpopo Information Studies Department on 16 August 2013. The main purpose of the seminar was to provide


information to the University of Limpopo 3rd level Information Studies’ students about the library systems and the processes that are followed to ensure library customer’s satisfaction at all times. This was more of a workshop intended to expose students to the practical side of the theory they had acquired during their studies. Three other seminars took a format of a series with FET Colleges on 4, 11 and 18 October 2013 at Rustenburg, Brits and Mankwe respectively. This series was themed “Know your Africa”. It helped students at these colleges to know and understand Africa and also enhanced their studies, especially on climate change issues.

The Library and Documentation Services (LDS) has been disseminating information on African affairs to schools since 2005. The aims and objectives of the school outreach are: 1. to promote knowledge about African affairs at

a grassroots level as has been stipulated in the AISA Act (no 68 of 2001);

2. to disseminate information about AISA and its role on the African continent;

3. to promote AISA and its core objectives amongst schools and information centres and;

4. to encourage a culture of reading amongst youth/learners.

For this reporting period, the LDS interacted with 269 schools as follows:

The objective of these visits was to encourage learners to take up research and GIS as possible careers and to promote African awareness. The visits were coupled with exhibitions showcasing AISA products and services.


Over and above schools outreach programmes LDS participated in the “Know Your Africa” seminars that were held in collaboration with the Cartography and Research divisions. These were at Orbit College’s three campuses in Rustenburg on 4 October 2013, Brits on 11 October 2013 and Mankwe on 18 October 2013. The objective of the seminars was to create awareness of AISA LDS’s services, AISA as an institution, to encourage students to take up research and GIS as possible careers and to promote African awareness through presentations of research papers on African affairs that research had conducted.

5. Creating increased awareness of AISA’s mandate, products and services

The LDS has embarked on a digitisation project culminating in an institutional repository. The aim is to enable access to the full text collection electronically and achieve the lifelong preservation of the collection. To this end, progress has been made on the AISA Institutional Repository web page, although it is still work in progress. The foundation had been laid and LDS will continue building it by adding more content (accessible at http://aisadoc-house.ai.org.za/). Articles based on researchers’ field of interest were sent out to keep them abreast with the latest developments in their field (SDI service).

Future Plans

LDS shall ensure the expansion of the institutional repository, and by doing so will ensure the preservation of AISA’s rare collection. There has been increased virtual development of the library and remote access to the library materials, not merely access to the catalogue without full text articles, because not all the clients of AISA are favourably situated geographically to visit AISA Library as they wish, and so full text, remotely accessible material needs to be provided.

The Corporate Affairs Division resides within the Office of the CEO. Corporate Affairs is responsible for governance, compliance, branding and communication issues, whilst being a vital link between the Office of the CEO and the various stakeholders. There are two units under Corporate Affairs: Governance and Outreach and International Liaison (OIL).

The Governance unit within the Corporate Affairs Division ensures that AISA holds scheduled Council and Council Committee meetings; collates and submits Strategic Plans, Annual Performance Plans, Shareholder’s Compacts and Quarterly and Annual Reports to the Executive Authority. In addition, the unit responds to parliamentary questions. Furthermore, the unit is responsible for monitoring and evaluating issues related to the implementation of the strategic and annual plans. This unit provides secretariat services to Council, its Committees, and staff meetings.

The Governance unit is responsible for monitoring the compliance with all relevant legislations, consolidating performance management information, coordination of AISA activities, facilitating alignment of divisional strategies

to the AISA strategy, playing an advisory role, promoting best practices and providing executive support.

Corporate Affairs is informed by the following:

• The provision of Public Finance Management Act (PFMA), 1999 (Act No.1 of 1999) as amended;

• Treasury Regulations as issued in terms of the PFMA and applicable to all Public Entities;

• Various Acts of Parliament that establish Entities reporting to the Minister of Science and Technology.

The OIL unit promotes the mandate of AISA to various stakeholders by forming strategic linkages with government, science councils, academic institutions, the diplomatic community, business, media and civil society. AISA’s mandate is not one of conducting research in a vacuum. The objective of the institute is to develop and disseminate knowledge about Africa as widely as possible. OIL pursues this element by serving as the external arm of excellence.

INTERNAL COMMUNICATION

Besides the fact that AISA Focus Newsletter kept employees abreast with the institutes’ events, the 2013/2014 financial year internal communication was dominated by the news on the incorporation of AISA into the HSRC. Here we published a sizable number of newsflashes and internal memos. We worked hand in glove with various incorporation committees and subcommittees to ensure that every piece of information is delivered to all employees. On top of notice boards, we also added lift posters for urgent messages as well as to cover those who do not have email facilities.

EXTERNAL COMMUNICATION

Corporate IdentityTo increase the institute’s visibility, AISA communications branded AISA in almost every event that the institute was part of. Our branding varied from shark fin banners, pull-up banners to backdrop banners. We also ensured that AISA brand is clearly visible and represented on material such as identity cards, event programmes and conference bags. For an example, during the 2013 Scramble for Africa Conference which was held at the Manhattan Hotel, our shark fin banners were clearly visible at the entrance of the hotel which is in the Pretoria CBD. We were also visible in major events such as the Freedom Day Seminar and China-South Africa Diplomatic Relations at 15 Years.

WebsiteIn the 2013/2014 financial year, the interconnectivity of various cyber platforms continued to play a role in our cyber communication. Through this interconnectivity we saw one news item being shared in various online

platforms. For an example, one story could be shared on the AISA website, social media - Facebook and Twitter pages. The same applies to videos uploaded on AISA YouTube channel which were shared on both the website and the AISA social media pages.

Our monthly newsletter was shared on the website and social media pages. Twenty policy briefs, produced by the Publications Division, were made accessible on the AISA website. The 10 books that were published in the 2013/2014 financial year were also placed on the website.

Our website traffic fluctuated depending on special projects held at that period. For example, our first quarter had more than 29 000 unique visits due to the Scramble for Africa Conference which was held in May 2013 while the third quarter had just above 22 000 visitors due to the December holidays. AISA had 103 827 unique visitors in total for the year.

Media ExposureAISA brand continued to dominate the media when it came to the analysis of issues relating to African Affairs. Our special and international projects continued to attract both local and international media, be it print, radio, television or online. For the Annual Scramble for Africa and AISA Young Graduates and Scholars Conferences, we signed a partnership agreement with the SABC Channel Africa, a radio station which broadcasts to more than 48 African countries. We interacted with media reactively and proactively interacted with various media houses throughout the financial year which in turn has broadened our media contact network.

Detailed information on above conferences is reported under Research Division.

Human Resources Division


The HR Team

The Human Resources division staff are trained professionals who recognise people as the most valuable asset, and are committed to their effective recruitment, development and utilisation. We continuously endeavour to respond to the needs of AISA in a fair, just, equitable and consistent manner, by utilising internal systems, policies and procedures. We have increasingly moved towards a ‘customer focus’ approach and over the years have played a more strategic role in the institution. Despite having a staff compliment of only 3 permanent employees and 1 intern, we still achieved maximum results.

The division of labour is deemed equal with much emphasis on team work to achieve on our desired divisional outputs. Our division strongly supports the core values of AISA which include creating and maintaining a workplace that provides participation, responsibility, integrity, development and above all excellence in what we do, hence we endeavour to live true to our AISA values - acronym PRIDE.

Our responsibility

We have a twofold responsibility both to the employee and the employer and at best hope to create a harmonious relationship between these parties for their mutual benefit. We do this by managing and developing all available talents and energies of people who are available in the institution as potential contributors to the creation and realisation of the institution’s mission, vision and strategic goals.

We accomplish this through providing guidance on strategic HR initiatives and maximizing HR services by consistently streamlining processes that increase the efficiency and effectiveness of our services.

HR as a Strategic Business Partner

Over the years we have developed our role of becoming a Strategic Business Partner in the institution by using our “customer focus” strategy, whereby HR management attended key management and staff meetings. The HR business partner approach has been instrumental in assisting divisions to identify, develop and implement

strong HR solutions in our attempt to dissolve the silo mentality across the institution.

This approach has enabled broader and comprehensive discussions related to recruitment, learning, organizational structure, and talent management. Furthermore, it has helped in meaningful discussions related to:

• Diversity;• Equity;• Mentoring;• career development;• performance management;• recognition; • Rewards; • maintaining well developed HR policies; • Improvement in the utilisation of the existing HR data

and systems; and• Improved communication between HR and its

stakeholders.

Our People

AISA is comprised of a diverse work force in which we continue to increase diversity through the recruitment of people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. Despite the many challenges facing AISA during this year like the announcement of the incorporation of AISA into the HSRC, the anticipated reduction of the MTEF allocation, change in leadership at the end of the contract of the former CEO and introduction of the Interim CEO, our staff have their real commitment by the vast improvement in their productivity as compared to previous years. It is known that the strength of AISA is bound to the strength of its employees. We commend the inventive means adopted by AISA management to continue delivering value and excellent services while being confronted with a restricted budget and challenges of change. Special thanks to staff that have supported management in the cost saving initiatives whilst also assisting in improving on our outputs and service delivery.

People with Disabilities

AISA was unsuccessful in appointing any employees with disabilities for the period under review. We are cognizant of this challenge and are seeking opportunities to remedy the situation.

Gender track record

Women remained the highest gender in terms of percentage at 54.8% of the total employment at AISA. We have been able to maintain a relatively balanced demographic management team and will continue to improve in this area. In terms of the management team, comprising of 4 members the female gender ratio was 2:2. In support of our Pan African mandate we have employed individuals from the African continent within our core business division which is the research division.

We have also, through partnerships, gained experience from various professionals and expanded our stakeholders and networks to further enhance our popular Archie Mafeje memorial lecture, Ambassadorial Forums and seminars.


Commissioned work remained a key component of AISA and we endeavored to acquire international skills in order to deliver on our mandate.

Learning from the exit interviews

The exit interviews of employees are regularly reviewed to assist in planning within the HR team and to improve HR services to our customers. The main contributing factors for staff turnover were mainly financial considerations, career development, personal growth and lack of effective communication. The cost to our institution when employees leave included loss of productivity, other staff members having to carry more responsibilities thus taking them away from their core functions and time away of managers to recruit new employees.

Retaining Employees

AISA has seen a significant increase in staff leaving the institution from 2012/13 (see Table 6 and Figure 3). The turnover could be attributed to many factors but we have to accept that the internal environment could be linked to the incorporation into the HSRC.

Employee retention generally seeks to attract employees to the institute through various recruitment strategies, and to retain those already employed through motivation, reward, and nurturing employees’ productivity. A key aspect in this financial year was allowing employees to best use their skills and knowledge in areas that would improve their productivity.

AISA does not have an endless financial pool but we have tried to be more inclusive, improve communication and feedback through regular staff meetings and circulars from the office of the Interim CEO. We also regularly communicated on employees taking ownership of their work responsibilities and making them feel that they were valued members of the institution.

Administration and HRIS

For improved Human Resources administration, AISA has invested time in 2013 to review and simplify work processes and improve staff access to relevant administrative information. We are increasingly using the shared drive as a communication tool to make information more accessible to staff.

The Performance incentives are awarded to staff who have performed exceptionally well and contributed to an “over and above” performance besides meeting the expectations of their key performance areas. These encourage staff in their

There has been an improved usage of the VIP HR systems which has allowed HR administrators to focus on other responsibilities. The electronic application of leave via the Employee Self Service (ESS) system has also contributed to greater efficiency in terms of serving our employees.

Developing Employees

The training and development of staff ensures that AISA continues to improve its performance through a new, major and accelerated emphasis on training and professional capacity building. The role of Training is focused on creating a greater alignment between staff skills/competencies and the strategic priorities of AISA. Identifying and assessing training needs and developing programmes to meet those needs; the HR division continued to organise staff development activities to attract and retain highly skilled employees and to ensure that they can achieve divisional and individual objectives.

We have refined and strengthened the induction program. The new induction program was implemented in February 2012. It includes a full-day session and supporting material including a reference handbook. However as from January 2014 the approach shifted to more individualised induction sessions. Whenever new employees were appointed, they were inducted immediately by attending induction sessions within each division of AISA. Feedback from newly appointed employees proved that this approach was picking the fruits of an improved approach to inducting new employees.


professional and personal development activities. We believe that this reward serves a dual purpose in terms of individual progress and divisional enhancement in the long term. Four employees were reward for long service (Table 8). AISA staff members received performance bonuses in 2013/14 (Table 9).

Recognition of Long Service Awards

AISA has taken an initiative of offering long service awards as per the policy to the following four employees in 2013:

Performance management

The divisions’ performance management programme integrates organisational, divisional and individual planning, and provide staff with a clear understanding of our business priorities. The performance agreements, work plans and personal development plans addressed work objectives, learning goals, divisional and AISA values for a specific financial year. AISA undertook a post-implementation review of the performance management system to gather feedback and measure areas for improvement. It is hoped that the initial findings from this review will yield better results in the next assessment of staff. Furthermore this rewarding system will motivate staff to improve on their quality of work.

Workplace relations

We managed to sign the Interim Organisational Rights Agreement between AISA and PSA. The major labour concern last year were policies that were amended and updated without necessarily involving staff sufficiently. Due to incorporation this process could not be completed on time. Many potential grievances were resolved amicably and employee relations in general improved significantly.

Lessons learnt from our labour disputes

We have improved our labour relations skills during the reporting year. We have had a significant reduction of labour relations disputes and managed to resolve many internally which is indicative that we are becoming more compliant in adhering to the policy prescripts. Many of the external labour disputes were carry overs from previous years.

Communication

There has been an improvement in this regard with more staff meetings and frequent communications from the Office of the CEO.

Audits Performed

As per the Internal Audit plan for the 2013/2014 financial year, we had the following scheduled audits performed within the Human Resources Division as listed below. • PerformanceManagementandEvaluationaudit• Payrollaudit• Leaveaudit

Performance management remains our greatest concern both by internal and external auditors. We have reviewed the findings and have put in place corrective action.

Sick leave was taken by most of AISA staff over the period. The average amount of days taken by these employees was 5.33 days per employee, which has slightly decreased from the previous year of 6.5. This remains favourable as compared to the national norm which is six days. Leave patterns which are outside of the norm are monitored and addressed as they arise.

Capped leave is an inheritance of the past. Management has reduced capped leave substantially in the past 5 years. The number of days were reduced from 1091 days. Accumulated leave always represents a financial risk for the institution and creates a growing liability on an annual basis. AISA will continue to encourage staff to reduce the number of leave days.

SWOT analysis of HR

• The ability of a small HR team to deliver results.

• Reduction in time span in filling of vacancies.

• The quantity of work remains high.

• The ability to create positions that meet the needs of

AISA.

• Increase in the employment of PhD holders.

• Meeting our external legal compliance.

• Payment of staff every time.

• Better utilisation of the current HR information systems.

• Ability to recognise our weaknesses and attempt to

address them.

• Significant improvement in turnaround times.

Technological Improvement in IT systems

- HR Intranet ( generate documents electronically)

- E- Recruitment

- E-PMDS

Using our ESS system more effectively

The introduction of a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system. The CRM software will help track staff queries

and requests while providing an electronic repository of documents and auditable track records. The system will reduce

duplication and enhance knowledge management in the area of human resources.

Development of an HR Client Service Charter to our clients, guaranteeing the service standards they can expect, and

how they can give feedback or make complaints. More importantly for internal clients to have an understanding of their

rights and obligations under the service charter.

• Constant number of vacant posts throughout the year

which resulted in constant recruitment of employees.

• Not improving on HR IT systems to keep abreast of

technological advances in Industry e.g.:-

o E-recruitment system

o PMDS.

• The number of audits related to non-compliance in

the year.

• The lack of divisional managers taking accountability

for talent and people management.

• No formal Wellness Program in place to provide

employees with diverse opportunities of work-life

balance.

• Not meeting our equity target of disabled persons.

• Progression and mobility: As in any small

organization there is little to no scope for progression

within the organization.

Strengths Weaknesses

Opportunities

ConclusionAISA staff is resilient with an extremely high work ethic existent within the organization. The size of the Institution has developed a generalist work force that is able to perform many functions within the division. This makes them more marketable and mobile. It also allows us to achieve on the huge mandate despite our size. It is with admiration that we applaud our staff as AISA bows out and is incorporated into the HSRC with effect from 1 April 2014.

The Finance, Administration and Information Technology Division is structured as a support function within the institution for the purpose of fulfilling our mandate on knowledge generation on African affairs. The division’s main objective is to assist in managing the relevant resources and provides business facilities and IT infrastructure within the operational environment.

The division aligned its operations with the following organisational strategic objectives during the 2013/14 financial year:

Improve the control environment and compliance to legislation and risk management

The firm oversight of the Audit Committee during the 2013/14 financial year was once again a confirmation of its commitment and zero tolerance approach to the overall financial and control environment of AISA. Reporting and monitoring continued throughout the year and additional reports and updates were requested for critical areas identified in the prior year. Major emphasis was placed on the upgrading of the IT infrastructure and security environment to address the internal control deficiencies related to information technology.

AISA continued with an in-house internal audit function and the external audit function was performed by the office of the Auditor-General. The internal audit was conducted in terms of the approved three-year internal audit plan and internal audit reports were submitted to the Audit Committee on a quarterly basis or as and when an audit was completed.

The following final internal audit reports were issued:• Performance Information – Quarters 1, 2 and 3• Financial Discipline Reviews – Quarters 1, 2 and 3• Research Audit• Performance Management and Evaluation

The following follow up reviews were also conducted through the internal auditor:• Auditor General Findings for 2012/2013• Internal Audit Findings for FDRs Quarters 1,2 & 3 (2013/2014)•The internal auditor also embarked on the following consulting projects:• Risk Management Reviews and Risk Workshop• AISA Staff Training on Project Management•The following additional projects were also undertaken:• Audit Committee Self-Assessment• Council Assessment of Audit Committee•AISA made significant progress in terms of addressing audit findings over the past few years which led to a more stable internal control environment. Management, Internal Audit and Audit Committee worked relentlessly to move from disclaimers and qualified audit opinions to unqualified audit opinions.

In addition to the above AISA has summarized the past three year’s results in terms of the assessments conducted by the office of the Auditor-General in terms of evaluating the fundamentals of the AISA internal control environment. This was divided into three major categories:• Leadership;• Financial and Performance Reporting; and• Governance

Risk Management

Management quarterly submits a Risk Report to Audit Committee and Council. This includes strategic, human capital, finance and information technology risks. The Risk Report supports the Risk Management Policy which is based on the overall strategy of the institution. The Risk Management Policy also provides guidance in terms of the institution’s risk ratings and risk tolerance.

AISA identified 27 (2012/13: 37) risks during the financial year under review. The divisional risks below were identified within AISA during the 2013/14 financial year. The risks below reflect the inherent risk profile (Table 1) as well as the residual exposure after action plans (Table 2) were implemented:

Risk Management

The Finance, Administration and Information Technology Division contributes to this strategic objective in terms of:• Improving effectiveness of performance assessments throughout AISA; and• Ensuring that all policies are relevant, clearly outlined and communicated to staff.•Performance measurement is essential to determine how well the institution is executing on its strategy and to implement corrective measures where necessary. Reporting on performance measures is seldom a financial sustainability topic but forms an essential element of corporate governance. The effectiveness of the Finance, Administration and Information Technology Division is mostly determined by the expressed opinion of the Auditor-General. This directly relates to the assessment of the internal control environment within this division and how well it was managed. Performance reporting enables Council to measure the level of executing the strategy and to determine how well the institution performed against its predetermined objectives. This includes but is not limited to the quality, comparability, credibility of information and whether management met their agreed-upon objectives. This is supported by internal and external audit procedures which verify the accuracy of this information or the extent to which practices, regulations and policies were followed. Finally, external reporting of


performance is how AISA communicates its performance and financial results to DST, our shareholder, and other stakeholders.The Administration unit’s primary function is to provide administrative and auxiliary support within the institution and to improve business efficiencies. This includes managing the re-allocation of assets, facility rental and maintenance, sub-letting, security, fleet, telephone, cell phone, 3G, access control, mail, insurance renewals and claims as well as contract management.

AISA entered into a lease agreement for a five year period and the agreement came to an end on 30 June 2014. The AISA building and premises were rented at a cost of R65.25 per square meter, per month for 3,419m². The escalation rate annually increased with 10% at a fixed rate for the lease period. The total value of the lease agreement over the five year period amounted to R12,564,000 inclusive of escalation costs, but excluding costs related to rates, taxes, water and electricity. Turnover rental is not applicable. A R70,000 deposit is currently being held by the landlord. AISA sub-letted office space on the fourth floor to SADET. The sub-letting fees were determined on the same rates charged in the existing lease agreement with the landlord.

The building was maintained during the financial year and AISA made use of internal services to clean and maintain the premises. Four General Assistants were utilised to perform this function. Repair and maintenance to the building amounted to R32,811 for the 2013/14 financial year (R69,252 : 2012/13).The following policies were reviewed for the 2013/14 financial year in support of further enhancing a culture of good corporate governance and compliance:

Increase AISA’s visibility and enhance its profile

The information technology environment mainly contributes to meeting this objective. It mainly focusses on maintaining AISA’s IT infrastructure to improve business efficiencies through technological advancements. Information technology was an area which received attention during the 2013/14 financial year in finalizing the virtual environment and replacement of old desktops. An IT Governance Framework was developed and implemented to ensure that IT supports the institution’s objectives. The framework also provides a platform to protect its information, capitalizing on opportunities and gaining a competitive advantage. The framework also guides management in terms of IT resources, applications, information, infrastructure, human capacity and IT risk management. AISA adopted certain critical areas of COBIT and King III in terms of good practice to provide a sound foundation and implementation of an IT framework and management of the IT environment.

IT Report - Highlights, lowlights and Milestones

Since the installation of a new server and desktop software, upgrade of the bandwidth as well as messaging server software to Exchange 2010, we managed to maintain an acceptable maximum uptime across all our in-house information systems infrastructure without any third party support for most of the period in the year under review. The outsourced services (2MB Winet line and Mimecast email carrier) performed their services as expected.

We managed to maintain a stable environment considering that most of the technology and infrastructure was upgraded from the familiar environment which our onsite skill set was used to maintaining prior to the information systems environment overhaul. We overcame the challenges of supporting this new environment without external support from third parties who assisted us in the initial installation and configuring of some of the elements around the server environment.

Certification in all supported areas of the server’s technology as well as client software was also obtained.

The certificate validates the skill competency in the Microsoft subject matter an IT personnel manages in a networked environment.

The existing information systems infrastructure consists of nine servers, three physical servers and six virtual machines.

An Integrated IT and Payroll Audit was conducted

AISA appointed a service provider during the 3rd quarter to conduct an integrated IT and Payroll Audit. The report was submitted to Audit Committee and most of the findings were addressed.Management ensured that the IT environment was assessed and aligned to the institutions strategic objectives, ensuring that the IT infrastructure is maintained to keep up with the latest technology in order to enhance the business efficiencies effectively.

Incorporation

An IT Sub-Committee was established and a detailed IT Project Plan was implemented to ensure a smooth transition in terms of IT infrastructure and alignment of operating requirements.

The Council is required by the Public Finance Management Act, 1999 (Act No 1 of 1999) and the Africa Institute of South Africa, Act no 68 of 2001 (Act No 68 of 2001), to maintain adequate accounting records. It is also responsible for the content and integrity of the Annual Financial Statements and related financial information included in this report, as well as to ensure that the annual financial statements fairly present the state of affairs of the Institute as at the end of the financial year. The President assented The Africa Institute of South Africa Repeal Act, (Act No 21 of 2013), on 10 December 2013 and the effective date of incorporation was 1 April 2014, determined by the Minister of Science and Technology and published in the Government Gazette.

All assets, liabilities, rights and obligations were transferred by statute on the effective date, 1 April 2014, to the Human Sciences Research Council (HSRC). The Council had to ensure that the results of its operations and cash flows for the period under review, were in conformity with the Standards of Generally Recognised Accounting Practices (GRAP) issued by the Accounting Standards Board. The external auditors are engaged to express an independent opinion on the Annual Financial Statements and were given unrestricted access to all financial records and related data.

The Annual Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with South African Statements of Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (GRAP), issued by the Accounting Standards Board in accordance with Section 55 of the Public Finance Management Act, 1999 (Act No 1 of 1999).

The Council acknowledges that it was ultimately responsible for the system of internal financial controls established by the Institute. It attaches considerable importance to maintaining a strong control environment up until incorporation becomes effective.

To enable the Council to fulfil these responsibilities, they set standards for internal control aimed at reducing the risk of error or loss in a cost effective manner. The standards include the proper delegation of responsibilities within a clearly defined framework, effective accounting procedures and adequate segregation of duties to ensure an acceptable level of risk.

The controls of the Institute were monitored to ensure that all employees maintained the highest level of ethical standards. The Institute’s business was conducted in a manner above reproach in all reasonable circumstances.

The focus of risk management was on identifying, assessing, managing and monitoring all known forms of risk within the Institute. While risks cannot be fully eliminated, the Institute endeavoured to minimise it by ensuring that appropriate infrastructure, controls, systems and ethical behaviour are applied and managed within predetermined procedures and constraints.

The Council members are of the opinion (based on the information and explanations given by management), that the system of internal control provided reasonable assurance that the financial records may be relied on for the preparation of the annual financial statements. However, any system of internal financial control can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance against material misstatement or loss.

Council’s Responsibilities and Approval



The Council members have reviewed the Institute’s cash flow forecast for the year to 31 March 2014 and, in the light of this review and the current financial position, they are satisfied that the Institute has, or has access to adequate resources to continue its operational functions for the next MTEF (Medium Term Expenditure Framework) period.

The Institute is significantly dependent on the Department of Science and Technology for continued funding of its operations.

The Annual Financial Statements are prepared on the basis that the Institute is a going concern and that the Department of Science and Technology has neither the intention, nor the need to liquidate or curtail materially, the scale of the Institute’s operations as the Institute’s funding is ring fenced for the next MTEF period. The operations of AISA were transferred as a going concern effective 1 April 2014.

The members of the Council were responsible for the Annual Financial Statements of the Institute. The role of the Council was to provide assurance that the internal controls were in place and effective throughout the period under review. It was Managements responsibility to have implemented these controls.

The external auditors are responsible for independently reviewing and reporting on the Institute’s annual financial statements.

The Annual Financial Statements have been examined by the Institute’s external auditors and their report is presented in the Annual Financial Statements.

The Annual Financial Statements set out on pages 116 to 166 have been prepared on the going concern basis.

We are pleased to present our report for the financial year ended 31 March 2014.

Audit Committee members and attendance

Introduction

The Audit Committee, a sub committee of the Africa Institute of South Africa’s (AISA) Council was essentially responsible for the following: • guiding the organization to develop and implement an effective Risk Management Strategy and Implementation Plan;• ensuring that the organization had an Internal Audit function that was effective in its assessment of controls;• ensuring that AISA had an effective Financial Policy Framework that was regularly updated to be in line with GRAP; • The Audit Committee Charter was reviewed;• review the plan and scope of the external audit in terms of high risk areas and adequacy of audit coverage;• ensure that there are no restrictions or limitations placed on the auditors • recommending the annual financial statements for approval to the accounting authority; and• maintaining oversight of audit reviews and update management and Council of any corrective measures to be effected.

The Audit Committee consisted of the members listed hereunder and met 5 times during the period under review. Name of member Number of meetings attended Mrs S Padayachy (Chairperson) 4 Prof Y Sadie 3 Prof S Kongwa 5 Prof DP van der Nest 5 The effectiveness of internal control

The system of internal controls applied by the entity over financial and risk management is effective, efficient and transparent. In line with the PFMA and the adoption of some best practices of the King III Report on Corporate Governance requirements, Internal Audit provides the Audit Committee and management with assurance that the internal controls are appropriate and effective. This was 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 Auditor, the Audit Report on the financial statements, and the management report of the Auditor General South Africa, it was noted that no matters were reported that indicate any material deficiencies in the system of internal control or any deviations therefrom. Accordingly, we can report that the system of internal control over financial reporting for the period under review was efficient and effective.

The Audit Committee is satisfied with the content and quality of monthly and quarterly reports prepared and issued by the management and auditors of the entity during the year under review.

Evaluation of financial statements

Appreciation

I would like to express my sincere appreciation to AISA’s management, employees, the internal auditor as well as the Department of Science and Technology for their unwavering support to improve the control environment of AISA. Last but not least, I would like to thank the Auditor General for testing controls and advising AISA of further improvements.

Herewith, a special word of appreciation to the members of the Audit Committee for their diligence, inputs and non compromising stance of holding individuals accountable and responsible within the ambit of legislation without increasing the risk profile of AISA.

Chairperson of the Audit Committee

Audit Committee Report - Statement of Accountability



Introduction

1. I have audited the financial statements of the Africa Institute of South Africa (AISA) set out on pages 116 to 166, which comprise the statement of financial position as at 31 March 2014, the statement of financial performance, statement of changes in net assets, cash flow statement and statement of comparison of budget to actual amounts for the year then ended, as well as the notes, comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Accounting Authority’s responsibility for the financial statements

2. The accounting authority is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with South African Standards of Generally Recognised Accounting Practice (SA Standards of GRAP) and the requirements of the Public Finance Management Act of South Africa, 1999 (Act No. 1 of 1999) (PFMA), and for such internal control as the accounting authority 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 auditor’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.

Opinion

6. In my opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Africa Institute of South Africa as at 31 March 2014, and its financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the SA Standards of GRAP and the requirements of the PFMA.

Emphasis of matters

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

Restatement of corresponding figures

8. As disclosed in note 28 to the Annual Financial Statements, prior period errors occurred and were corrected. The errors refers to incorrect allocation of rental expense for the prior year, assets additions for the prior year incorrectly accounted for in the current year and a UIF error relating to amounts payable to employees. These amounts have been restated and disclosed in the annual financial statements.

THE AFRICA



Going concern

9. As disclosed in note 30 to the financial statements and the council’s report, the financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis. However, attention should be drawn to the announcement of the minister of Science and Technology that AISA was incorporated into the Human Sciences Research Council (HSRC) on 1 April 2014. AISA would not have been in a position to continue as a going concern with its current mandate. AISA continues to exist under the management of the HSRC.

10. The legal process of repealing the AISA act was completed effective from 1 April 2014. All the assets, liabilities and human resources were transferred to the HSRC.

REPORT ON OTHER LEGAL AND REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS

11. In accordance with the PAA and the general notice issued in terms thereof, I report the following findings on the reported performance information against predetermined objectives for selected objectives presented in the annual performance report, non-compliance with legislation as well as internal control. The objective of my tests was to identify reportable findings as described under each subheading but not to gather evidence to express assurance on these matters. Accordingly, I do not express an opinion or conclusion on these matters.

Predetermined objectives

12. I performed procedures to obtain evidence about the usefulness and reliability of the reported performance information for the following selected objectives presented in the annual performance report of the entity for the year ended 31 March 2014:• Programme1:ProduceandencourageknowledgeproductionanddisseminationonAfricanaffairsonpages170

to 181.• Programme3:BuildingtheAISAimageandincreasingourvisibilityonpages184to190.

13. I evaluated the reported performance information against the overall criteria of usefulness and reliability.

14. I evaluated the usefulness of the reported performance information to determine whether it was presented in accordance with the National Treasury’s annual reporting principles and whether the reported performance was consistent with the planned objectives. I further performed tests to determine whether indicators and targets were well defined, verifiable, specific, measurable, time bound and relevant, as required by the National Treasury’s Framework for managing programme performance information (FMPPI).

15. I assessed the reliability of the reported performance information to determine whether it was valid, accurate and complete.

16. I did not raise any material findings on the usefulness and reliability of the reported performance information for the selected objectives.

Additional matter

17. I draw attention to the following matter:

Achievement of planned targetss

18. Refer to the annual performance report on [page(s) 170 to 202 for information on the achievement of planned targets for the year.


19. I performed procedures to obtain evidence that the public entity had complied with applicable legislation regarding financial matters, financial management and other related matters. My findings on material non-compliance with specific matters in key legislation, as set out in the general notice issued in terms of the PAA, are as follows:

Annual financial statements and annual reports

20. The financial statements submitted for auditing were not prepared in accordance with the prescribed financial reporting framework as required by section 55(1) (a) of the Public Finance Management Act. Material misstatements of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, payables, revenue, operating expenditure, irregular expenditure, fruitless and wasteful expenditure, employee costs and prior period errors identified by the auditors in the submitted financial statement were subsequently corrected , resulting in the financial statements receiving an unqualified audit opinion.

Internal control

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

Financial and performance management

22. Non-compliance with section 55(1) (a) of the PFMA could have been prevented had management properly reviewed the accuracy of the amounts supporting the financial statements.

Pretoria31 July 2014

Report on the Financial Statements (continued)



The Council submits its report for the year ended 31 March 2014.

1. Incorporation

The Africa Institute of South Africa (AISA) was a statutory body and was first established in 1960 as a non profit organisation, until its transformation by an act of parliament, i.e. the Africa Institute of South Africa Act (Act No 68 of 2001), which accorded it the status of a statutory body and made it a public institution. AISA was incorporated on 04 July 1960 and obtained its certificate to commence business on the same day.

The President assented The Africa Institute of South Africa Repeal Act, (Act No 21 of 2013), on 10 December 2013 and the Minister of Science and Technology determined the effective date of incorporation as 1 April 2014.

All assets, liabilities, rights and obligations were transferred by statute on the effective date, 1 April 2014, to the Human Sciences Research Council (HSRC).

AISA will continue with its operations under the management of the HSRC.

2. Review of activities

Main business and operations

The principal activities of AISA are knowledge production, education, training, the promotion of awareness on Africa, for Africans and the international community. During the year under review there were no major changes in the activities of the Institute.

The Council was satisfied with the overall performance of the Institute, although there are still areas that require review and improvement in the next financial year.

The operating results and state of affairs of the institute are fully set out in the attached Annual Financial Statements and

do not in our opinion require any further comment. The net surplus of the Institution was R2,048,932 (2013: Surplus Restated: R4, 957,292). Approval was obtained from

National Treasury to retain the accumulated surplus funds as per note 11 in the Notes to the Annual Financial Statements for the prior year. The accumulated surplus funds will be utilized to cover the VAT shortfall in terms of the grant allocation. The increase in net surplus for the current year relates to the revaluation of assets.

3. Going concern

We draw attention to the fact that at 31 March 2014, the Institution had an accumulated surplus of R13,061,588 (2013: Restated R11, 012,606).

The Annual Financial Statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting policies applicable to a going concern. Accordingly, it presumes that funds will be available to finance future operations and that the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities, contingent obligations and commitments will occur in the ordinary course of business. The former Minister of Science and Technology announced that AISA will be incorporated into the HSRC. The legal process of

Council’s Report



repealing the AISA Act was completed and is effective 1 April 2014. The AISA MTEF (Medium Term Expenditure Framework) budget was ring fenced for the next three years. All staff, assets, rights, obligations and liabilities were transferred to the HSRC.

The Africa Institute of South Africa received a grant from the Department of Science and Technology to the amount of R35, 237,000 (2013: R33, 643,000).

4. Subsequent events

A fire within the Library and Documentation Division destroyed a number of library holdings during April 2014 after the reporting period. The estimated value of the damaged holdings amounts to approximately R173, 700.

5. Council Members’ interest in contracts

The Council members had no interests to declare with reference to contracts awarded by AISA for the year under review.

6. Financial Statements The Annual Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GRAP, issued by the Accounting Standards

Board in accordance with Section 55 of the Public Finance Management Act, (Act No. 29 of 1999). Accounting policies for material transactions, events or conditions not covered by the GRAP reporting framework have

been developed in accordance with paragraphs 7, 11 and 12 of GRAP 3 and the hierarchy approved in Directive 5 issued by the Accounting Standards Board.

The Annual Financial Statements have been prepared on an accrual basis of accounting and are in accordance with historical cost convention, unless specifically stated otherwise.

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these Annual Financial Statements are set out below.

Assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses have not been offset except where offsetting is required or permitted by a standard of GRAP.

The accounting policies are applied consistently with those used to present the previous year’s Annual Financial Statements, unless explicitly stated. The details of any changes in accounting policies are explained in the relevant policy.

There are no changes in accounting policies for the year under review. The International Financial Reporting Standards were not applied. Effective GRAP standards were considered in the preparation of the Annual Financial Statements.

7. Borrowing limitations

In terms of the Africa Institute of South Africa Act, 2001 (Act No 68 of 2001), Section 6(f), neither AISA nor it’s members had the authority to borrow funds on its own behalf without prior approval from the Minister.

11. Corporate governance

General

The Council was committed to business integrity, transparency and professionalism in all its activities. As part of this commitment, the Council supported the highest standards of corporate governance and the ongoing development of best practice. Council was disolved with effect 1 April 2014.

The Institution confirms and acknowledges its responsibility to total compliance with the Public Finance Management Act, 1999, (Act No. 1 of 1999) and the Africa Institute of South Africa Act, 2001 (Act No. 68 of 2001). The Council discussed the responsibilities of management in this respect, at Council meetings and monitored the Institution’s compliance on a quarterly basis.

The salient features of the Institution’s adoption of the Acts are outlined below:

Council members

The Council acknowledges its responsibilities as to strategy, compliance with internal policies, external laws and regulations, effective risk management and performance measurement, transparency and effective communication both internally and externally by the Institute;

The Council was a unitary structure and comprised:

• at least seven members, but not more than ten, appointed by the Minister of Science and Technology in the prescribed manner;

• a representative from the Department of Science and Technology;• a maximum of two members co opted by the Council in consultation with the Minister; and• the Chief Executive Officer of the Institute, who is ex officio and does not have voting powers.

Chairperson and Chief Executive

Dr Hlatshwayo was a non executive and independent member appointed by the Minister of Science and Technology.

The roles of Dr Hlatshwayo as Chairperson and Prof Phindile Lukhele Olorunju in her capacity as the interim Chief Executive Officer were separated, and responsibilities were divided between them, so that no individual had unfettered powers of discretion.

Executive meetings

The Council met on 5 separate occasions during the financial year.

Non executive members had access to all information provided by members of management of the Institution.

Audit and Risk Committee

Mrs S Padayachy served as the chairperson of the Audit Committee for the financial year under review. The Committee met 5 times during the financial year to review matters relevant to their portfolio.

Members of the Audit Committee were appointed via a formal election process at a Council meeting. Notwithstanding that non executive members of Council are appointed by the Minister of the Department of Science and Technology, National Treasury requires that public entities appoint independent members to the Audit Committee in addition to the above.

Council’s Report



Human Resource and Finance Committee

Dr Sam Kongwa in the absence of Prof J Daniel served as the chairperson of the Human Resource and Finance Committee for the financial year under review. The Committee met 4 times during the financial year to review matters relevant to their portfolio.

Members of the Human Resource and Finance Committee were appointed via a formal election process at a Council meeting. Non executive members of Council were appointed by the Minister of the Department of Science and Technology. Research Committee

Prof Y Sadie served as the chairperson of the Research Committee for the financial year under review. The Committee met 4 times during the financial year to review research matters, relevant to their portfolio.

Internal audit

The Institution had an in house internal audit function for the period under review. This is in line with the compliance requirements stipulated in the Public Finance Management Act, 1999 (Act No 1 of 1999).

12. Controlling entity

The Institution’s controlling entity is the Department of Science and Technology.

13. Special resolutions

Council did not pass special resolutions during the financial year under review. 14. Auditors

The Auditor General South Africa will continue in office in accordance with the Public Audit Act, 2004 (Act No 5 of 2004), and Section 16 of the Africa Institute of South Africa Act, 2001 (Act No. 68 of 2001) and chapter six, part four, Section 56 of the Public Finance Management Act, 1999 (Act No.1 of 1999)

1. Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Standards of Generally Recognised Accounting Practice (GRAP), issued by the Accounting Standards Board in accordance with Section 122(3) of the Africa Institute of South Africa, Act no 68 of 2001.

These financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis of accounting and are in accordance with historical cost convention as the basis of measurement, unless specified otherwise. They are presented in South African Rand.

These accounting policies are consistent with the previous period.

1.1 Significant judgements and sources of estimation uncertainty

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts represented in the financial statements and related disclosures. Use of available information and the application of judgement is inherent in the formation of estimates. Actual results in the future could differ from these estimates which may be material to the financial statements.

Significant judgements include:

Trade receivables

The Institute assesses its trade receivables for impairment at the end of each reporting period, in determining whether an impairment loss should be recorded in surplus or deficit. Management makes judgements as to whether there is observable data indicating a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows of a financial asset. Trade receivables are initially measured at fair value (transaction price).

Allowance for slow moving, damaged and obsolete stock

An allowance for inventory write down to the net realisable value is made. Management have made estimates of the direct cost to sell on certain inventory items. The write down is included in the cost of sales.

Provisions

Provisions were raised and management determined an estimate based on the information available. Additional disclosure of these estimates of provisions are included in note 10 Provisions.Provisions are recognised when the institute has:• a present obligation as a result of a past event;• a reliable estimate can be made of the obligation and • it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits or service potential will be required

to settle the obligation

The amount of a provision is the best estimate of the expenditure expected to be required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date.

Where the effect of time value of money is material, the amount of a provision is the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation.

The discount rate is a pre tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.

Where some or all of the expenditure required to settle a provision is expected to be reimbursed by another party, the reimbursement shall be recognised when, and only when, it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be

Accounting Policies



received if the Institution settles the obligation. The reimbursement shall be treated as a separate asset. The amount recognised for the reimbursement shall not exceed the amount of the provision.

Provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. Provisions are reversed if it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits or service potential will be required.

Provisions are not recognised for future operating deficits. Post retirement obligation

The present value of the post retirement medical aid obligation depends on a number of factors that are determined on an actuarial basis using a number of assumptions. The assumptions used in determining the net cost include the discount rate. Any changes in these assumptions will impact on the carrying amount of post retirement obligations.

The Institution determines the appropriate discount rate at the end of each year through a valuation. The interest rate is used to determine the present value of estimated future cash outflows and is required to settle the obligations. In determining the appropriate discount rate, the Institution considers the interest rates of high quality corporate bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and that have terms to maturity approximating the terms of the related liability.

Other key assumptions for post retirement medical aid obligations are based on current market conditions.

Effective interest rate

The Institution used the prime interest rate to discount future cash flows.

Allowance for doubtful debts

On debtors, an impairment loss is recognised in surplus and deficit when there is objective evidence that it is impaired. The impairment is measured as the difference between the debtors carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate, computed at initial recognition.

AISA did not make provision for any doubtful debts for the financial year under review.

Related Parties

Transactions between related parties is disclosed in the nature of the related party relationship as well as information about the transactions and outstanding balances necessary for an understanding of the potential effect of the relationship on the financial statements. This disclosures are separately disclosed for each category of related parties and could include:• the amount of the transactions; • the amount of outstanding balances, including terms and conditions and guarantees; • provisions for doubtful debts related to the amount of outstanding balances; and • expense recognised during the period in respect of bad or doubtful debts due from related parties.

1.2 Property, plant, equipment and intangibles

Property, plant, equipment and intangibles will be transferred to the Human Science Research Council (HSRC) with effect 1 April 2014. For the financial year under review the following accounting policies were applicable:

Property, plant, equipment and intangibles are tangible non current assets (including infrastructure assets) that are held for use in the production or supply of goods or services, rental to others, or for administrative purposes, and are expected to be used during more than one period.

Accounting Policies



The cost of an item of property, plant, equipment and intangibles is recognised as an asset when:• it is probable that future economic benefits or service potential associated with the item will flow to the entity;

and• the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

Property, plant, equipment and intangibles is initially measured at cost.

The cost of an item of property, plant, equipment and intangibles is the purchase price and other costs attributable to bring the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Trade discounts and rebates are deducted in arriving at the cost.

Where an asset is acquired through a non exchange transaction, its cost is its fair value as at date of acquisition. Where an item of property, plant, equipment and intangibles is acquired in exchange for a non monetary asset or monetary assets, or a combination of monetary and non monetary assets, the asset acquired is initially measured at fair value (the cost). If the acquired item’s fair value was not determinable, it’s deemed cost is the carrying amount of the asset(s) given up.

When significant components of an item of property, plant, equipment and intangibles have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant, equipment and intangibles.

Costs include costs incurred initially to acquire or construct an item of property, plant, equipment and intangibles and costs incurred subsequently to add to, replace part of, or service it. If a replacement cost is recognised in the carrying amount of an item of property, plant, equipment and intangibles, the carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised.

The initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located is also included in the cost of property, plant, equipment and intangibles, where the entity is obligated to incur such expenditure, and where the obligation arises as a result of acquiring the asset or using it for purposes other than the production of inventories.

Recognition of costs in the carrying amount of an item of property, plant, equipment and intangibles ceases when the item is in the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

Major spare parts and stand by equipment which are expected to be used for more than one period are included in property, plant, equipment and intangibles. In addition, spare parts and stand by equipment which can only be used in connection with an item of property, plant, equipment and intangibles are accounted for as property, plant, equipment and intangibles.

Major inspection costs which are a condition of continuing use of an item of property, plant, equipment and intangibles and which meet the recognition criteria above are included as a replacement in the cost of the item of property, plant, equipment and intangibles. Any remaining inspection costs from the previous inspection are derecognised.

Property, plant, equipment and intangibles is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses which is carried at revalued amount being the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

Revaluations are made with sufficient regularity such that the carrying amount does not differ materially from that which would be determined using fair value at the end of the reporting period.

Accounting Policies



When an item of property, plant, equipment and intangibles is revalued, any accumulated depreciation at the date of the revaluation is restated proportionately with the change in the gross carrying amount of the asset so that the carrying amount of the asset after revaluation equals its revalued amount.

When an item of property, plant, equipment and intangibles is revalued, any accumulated depreciation at the date of the revaluation is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset and the net amount restated to the revalued amount of the asset.

Any increase in an asset’s carrying amount, as a result of a revaluation, is credited directly to a revaluation surplus. The increase is recognised in surplus or deficit to the extent that it reverses a revaluation decrease of the same asset previously recognised in surplus or deficit.

Any decrease in an asset’s carrying amount, as a result of a revaluation, is recognised in surplus or deficit in the current period. The decrease is debited directly to a revaluation surplus to the extent of any credit balance existing in the revaluation surplus in respect of that asset.

The revaluation surplus in equity related to a specific item of property, plant, equipment and intangibles is transferred directly to retained earnings as the asset is used. The amount transferred is equal to the difference between depreciation based on the revalued carrying amount and depreciation based on the original cost of the asset.

The useful lives of items of property, plant, equipment and intangibles have been assessed as follows:

Item Average useful lifeLibrary Books 20 YearsProperty 50 YearsFurniture and Fittings 10 YearsMotor Vehicles 5 YearsComputer Equipment 3 Years

The residual value, and the useful life and depreciation method of each asset are reviewed at the end of each reporting date. If the expectations differ from previous estimates, the change is accounted for as a change in accounting estimate.

Reviewing the useful life of an asset on an annual basis does not require the entity to amend the previous estimate unless expectations differ from the previous estimate.

Each part of an item of property, plant, equipment and intangibles with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item is depreciated separately.

The depreciation charge for each period is recognised in surplus or deficit unless it is included in the carrying amount of another asset.

Items of property, plant, equipment and intangibles are derecognised when the asset is disposed of or when there are no further economic benefits or service potential expected from the use of the asset.

The gain or loss arising from the derecognition of an item of property, plant, equipment and intangibles is included in surplus or deficit when the item is derecognised. The gain or loss arising from the derecognition of an item of property, plant, equipment and intangibles is determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds, if any, and the carrying amount of the item.

Accounting Policies



Assets which the entity holds for rentals to others and subsequently routinely sell as part of the ordinary course of activities, are transferred to inventories when the rentals end and the assets are available for sale. These assets are not accounted for as non current assets held for sale. Proceeds from sales of these assets are recognised as revenue. All cash flows on these assets are included in cash flows from operating activities in the cash flow statement.

1.3 Intangible assets

An asset is identifiable if it either:• is separable, i.e. is capable of being separated or divided from an entity and sold, transferred, licensed,

rented or exchanged, either individually or together with a related contract, identifiable assets or liability, regardless of whether the entity intends to do so; or

• arises from binding arrangements (including rights from contracts), regardless of whether those rights are transferable or separable from the entity or from other rights and obligations.

A binding arrangement describes an arrangement that confers similar rights and obligations on the parties to it as if it were in the form of a contract.

An intangible asset is recognised when:• it is probable that the expected future economic benefits or service potential that are attributable to the asset

will flow to the entity; and• the cost or fair value of the asset can be measured reliably.

The entity assesses the probability of expected future economic benefits or service potential using reasonable and supportable assumptions that represent management’s best estimate of the set of economic conditions that will exist over the useful life of the asset.

Where an intangible asset is acquired through a non exchange transaction, its initial cost at the date of acquisition is measured at its fair value as at that date.

Expenditure on research (or on the research phase of an internal project) is recognised as an expense when it is incurred.

Intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses.

An intangible asset is regarded as having an indefinite useful life when, based on all relevant factors, there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which the asset is expected to generate net cash inflows or service potential. Amortisation is not provided for these intangible assets, but they are tested for impairment annually and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired. For all other intangible assets amortisation is provided on a straight line basis over their useful life.

The amortisation period and the amortisation method for intangible assets are reviewed at each reporting date. Reassessing the useful life of an intangible asset with a finite useful life after it was classified as indefinite is an indicator that the asset may be impaired. As a result the asset is tested for impairment and the remaining carrying amount is amortised over its useful life.

Accounting Policies



Internally generated brands, mastheads, publishing titles, customer lists and items similar in substance are not recognised as intangible assets.

Internally generated goodwill is not recognised as an intangible asset.

Amortisation is provided to write down the intangible assets, on a straight line basis, to their residual values as follows:Item Useful lifeComputer software, other 3 years

1.4 Financial instruments

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or a residual interest of another entity. Three elements are required to be present before a financial instrument can exist, namely a contract, a financial asset and a financial liability or an residual interest. In terms of the statement, a contract is an agreement between two or more parties that has clear economic consequences that the parties have little, if any, discretion to avoid, because the agreement is enforceable by law.

The amortised cost of a financial asset or financial liability is the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured at initial recognition minus principal repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortisation using the effective interest method of any difference between that initial amount and the maturity amount, and minus any reduction (directly or through the use of an allowance account) for impairment or uncollectibility.

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation.

Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates.

Derecognition is the removal of a previously recognised financial asset or financial liability from an entity’s statement of financial position.

Financial assets and liabilities

AISA has the following financial assets and liabilities: Capital market instruments, money market instruments which are classified as financial assets at fair value through surplus or deficit, cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables which are classified as loans, receivables, trade and other payables.

The entity recognises a financial asset or a financial liability in its statement of financial position when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

The entity recognises financial assets using trade date accounting.

Initial measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities

The entity measures a financial asset and financial liability initially at its fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial asset or financial liability.

1.5 Leases

A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership. A lease is classified as an operating lease if it does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership.

When a lease includes both land and buildings elements, the entity assesses the classification of each element separately.

Operating leases - lessor

Operating lease revenue is recognised as revenue on a straight line basis over the lease term with escalating costs linked to the lease agreement entered into and between the lessee, currently stated 10% annually and costs are determined by the number of square meters utilised.

Income for leases is disclosed under revenue in statement of financial performance.

Operating leases - lessee Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight line basis over the lease term. The difference between the amounts recognised as an expense and the contractual payments are recognised as an operating lease asset or liability. Leases of assets under which all the risks and benefits of ownership are effectively retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Payment made under operating leases is charged to the statement of financial performance.

Accounting Policies



Leases of property, plant and equipment where the Institute assumes substantially all the benefits and risks of ownerships are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capatilised at the estimated present value of the underlying lease payments. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance charges so as to achieve a constant rate on the finance balance outstanding. The corresponding rental obligation, net of finance charges, is included in other non current borrowings. The interest element of the finance charge is charged to the statement of financial performance over the lease period.

When an operating lease is terminated before the lease period has expired, any payment required to be made to the lessor by way of penalty is recognised an expense in the period in which termination takes place.

1.6 Inventories

Inventories are initially measured at cost except where inventories are acquired through a non exchange transaction, then their costs are their fair value as at the date of acquisition.

Subsequently inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and current replacement cost where they are held for;• distribution at no charge or for a nominal charge; or• consumption in the production process of goods to be distributed at no charge or for a nominal charge.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of operations less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale, exchange or distribution.

Current replacement cost is the cost the entity incurs to acquire the asset on the reporting date.

The cost of inventories comprises of all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.

The cost of inventories of items that are not ordinarily interchangeable and goods or services produced and segregated for specific projects is assigned using specific identification of the individual costs.

The cost of inventories is assigned using the weighted average cost formula. The same cost formula is used for all inventories having a similar nature and use to the entity.

When inventories are sold, the carrying amounts of those inventories are recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised. If there is no related revenue, the expenses are recognised when the goods are distributed, or related services are rendered. The amount of any write down of inventories to net realisable value or current replacement cost and all losses of inventories are recognised as an expense in the period the write down or loss occurs. The amount of any reversal of any write down of inventories, arising from an increase in net realisable value or current replacement cost, are recognised as a reduction in the amount of inventories recognised as an expense in the period in which the reversal occurs.

Accounting Policies



1.7 Impairment of non cash generating assets

Cash generating assets are those assets held by the entity with the primary objective of generating a commercial return. When an asset is deployed in a manner consistent with that adopted by a profit orientated entity, it generates a commercial return.

Non cash generating assets are assets other than cash generating assets and are utilized for service delivery purposes.

Impairment is a loss in the future economic benefits or service potential of an asset, over and above the systematic recognition of the loss of the asset’s future economic benefits or service potential through depreciation (amortisation).

Carrying amount is the amount at which an asset is recognised in the statement of financial position after deducting any accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses thereon. A cash generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets held with the primary objective of generating a commercial return that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.

Costs of disposal are incremental costs directly attributable to the disposal of an asset, excluding finance costs and income tax expense.

Depreciation (Amortisation) is the systematic allocation of the depreciable amount of an asset over its useful life.

Fair value less costs to sell is the amount obtainable from the sale of an asset in an arm’s length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties, less the costs of disposal.

Recoverable service amount is the higher of a non cash generating asset’s fair value less costs to sell and its value in use.

Useful life is either:(a) the period of time over which an asset is expected to be used by the entity; or(b) the number of production or similar units expected to be obtained from the asset by the entity.

Criteria developed by the entity to distinguish non cash generating assets from cash generating assets are as follow:

Cash generating assets: Inventory.

Non Cash generating assets: All other assets that are specifically used for operational running.

1.8 Employee benefits

Employee benefits are all forms of consideration given by an entity in exchange for service rendered by employees.

A qualifying insurance policy is an insurance policy issued by an insurer that is not a related party (as defined in the Standard of GRAP on Related Party Disclosures) of the reporting entity, if the proceeds of the policy can be used only to pay or fund employee benefits under a defined benefit plan and are not available to the reporting entity’s own creditors (even in liquidation) and cannot be paid to the reporting entity, unless either:

Accounting Policies



• the proceeds represent surplus assets that are not needed for the policy to meet all the related employee benefit obligations; or

• the proceeds are returned to the reporting entity to reimburse it for employee benefits already paid.

Termination benefits are employee benefits payable as a result of either:• an entity’s decision to terminate an employee’s employment before the normal retirement date; or• an employee’s decision to accept voluntary redundancy in exchange for those benefits.

Other long term employee benefits are employee benefits (other than post employment benefits and termination benefits) that are not due to be settled within twelve months after the end of the period in which the employees render the related service.

Vested employee benefits are employee benefits that are not conditional on future employment.

Composite social security programmes are established by legislation and operate as multi employer plans to provide post employment benefits as well as to provide benefits that are not consideration in exchange for service rendered by employees.

A constructive obligation is an obligation that derives from an entity’s actions where by an established pattern of past practice, published policies or a sufficiently specific current statement, the entity has indicated to other parties that it will accept certain responsibilities and as a result, the entity has created a valid expectation on the part of those other parties that it will discharge those responsibilities. Actuarial assumptions

Actuarial assumptions are unbiased and mutually compatible.

Financial assumptions are based on market expectations, at the reporting date, for the period over which the obligations are to be settled.

The rate used to discount post employment benefit obligations (both funded and unfunded) reflect the time value of money. The currency and term of the financial instrument selected to reflect the time value of money is consistent with the currency and estimated term of the post employment benefit obligations.

Post employment benefit obligations are measured on a basis that reflects:• estimated future salary increases;• the benefits set out in the terms of the plan (or resulting from any constructive obligation that goes beyond those

terms) at the reporting date; and• estimated future changes in the level of any state benefits that affect the benefits payable under a defined

benefit plan, if, and only if, either:• those changes were enacted before the reporting date; or• past history, or other reliable evidence, indicates that those state benefits will change in some predictable

manner, for example, in line with future changes in general price levels or general salary levels.

Assumptions about medical costs take account of estimated future changes in the cost of medical services, resulting from both inflation and specific changes in medical costs.

Accounting Policies



1.9 Provision and Contingencies

A provision was raised and management determined an estimate based on the information available. Additional disclosure of the estimates of the provision are included in note 10.

Provisions are recognised when:• the entity has a present obligation as a result of a past event;• it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits or service potential will be required

to settle the obligation; and• a reliable estimate can be made of the obligation.

The amount of a provision is the best estimate of the expenditure expected to be required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date.

Where the effect of time value of money is material, the amount of a provision is the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation.

The discount rate is a pre tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.

Where some or all of the expenditure required to settle a provision is expected to be reimbursed by another party, the reimbursement is recognised when, and only when, it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received if the entity settles the obligation. The reimbursement is treated as a separate asset. The amount recognised for the reimbursement does not exceed the amount of the provision.

Provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. Provisions are reversed if it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits or service potential will be required, to settle the obligation.

Where discounting is used, the carrying amount of a provision increases in each period to reflect the passage of time. This increase is recognised as an interest expense.

A provision is used only for expenditures for which the provision was originally recognised.Provisions are not recognised for future operating deficits. If an entity has a contract that is onerous, the present obligation (net of recoveries) under the contract is recognised and measured as a provision.

No obligation arises as a consequence of the sale or transfer of an operation until the entity is committed to the sale or transfer, that is, there is a binding arrangement.

After their initial recognition contingent liabilities recognised in entity combinations that are recognised separately are subsequently measured at the higher of:• the amount that would be recognised as a provision; and• the amount initially recognised less cumulative amortisation.

Accounting Policies



Contingent assets and contingent liabilities are not recognised. Contingencies are disclosed in note 24.

A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument.

Loan commitment is a firm commitment to provide credit under pre specified terms and conditions.

The entity recognises a provision for financial guarantees and loan commitments when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits and service potential will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate of the obligation can be made.

Determining whether an outflow of resources is probable in relation to financial guarantees requires judgement. Indications that an outflow of resources may be probable are:• inancial difficulty of the debtor;• defaults or delinquencies in interest and capital repayments by the debtor;• breaches of the terms of the debt instrument that result in it being payable earlier than the agreed term and the

ability of the debtor to settle its obligation on the amended terms; and• a decline in prevailing economic circumstances (e.g. high interest rates, inflation and unemployment) that

impact on the ability of entities to repay their obligations.

Where a fee is received by the entity for issuing a financial guarantee and/or where a fee is charged on loan commitments, it is considered in determining the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at reporting date. Where a fee is charged and the entity considers that an outflow of economic resources is probable, an entity recognises the obligation at the higher of:• the amount determined using in the Standard of GRAP on Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent

Assets; and• the amount of the fee initially recognised less, where appropriate, cumulative amortisation recognised in

accordance with the Standard of GRAP on Revenue from Exchange Transactions.

1.10 Revenue from exchange transactions

Revenue is the gross inflow of economic benefits or service potential during the reporting period when those inflows result in an increase in net assets, other than increases relating to contributions from owners.

An exchange transaction is one in which the entity receives assets or services, or has liabilities extinguished, and directly gives approximately equal value (primarily in the form of goods, services or use of assets) to the other party in exchange.

Fair value is the amount for which an asset could be exchanged, or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length transaction.

Measurement

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of trade discounts and volume rebates.

Accounting Policies



Sale of goods

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when all the following conditions have been satisfied:• the Institution has transferred to the purchaser the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods;• the Institution retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership

nor effective control over the goods sold;• the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;• it is probable that the economic benefits or service potential associated with the transaction will flow to the

Institution; and• the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.

Rendering of services

When the outcome of a transaction involving the rendering of services can be estimated reliably, revenue associated with the transaction is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the transaction at the reporting date. The outcome of a transaction can be estimated reliably when all the following conditions are satisfied:• the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;• it is probable that the economic benefits or service potential associated with the transaction will flow to the

entity;• the stage of completion of the transaction at the reporting date can be measured reliably; and• the costs incurred for the transaction and the costs to complete the transaction can be measured reliably.

When services are performed by an indeterminate number of acts over a specified time frame, revenue is recognised on a straight line basis over the specified time frame unless there is evidence that some other method better represents the stage of completion. When a specific act is much more significant than any other acts, the recognition of revenue is postponed until the significant act is executed.

When the outcome of the transaction involving the rendering of services cannot be estimated reliably, revenue is recognised only to the extent of the expenses recognised that are recoverable.

Interest, royalties and dividends

Revenue arising from the use by others of entity assets yielding interest, royalties and dividends is recognised when:• It is probable that the economic benefits or service potential associated with the transaction will flow to the

entity, and• The amount of the revenue can be measured reliably.

Interest is recognised, in surplus or deficit, using the effective interest rate method.

Royalties are recognised as they are earned in accordance with the substance of the relevant agreements.

Dividends, or their equivalents are recognised, in surplus or deficit, when the Institution’s right to receive payment has been established.

Service fees included in the price of the product are recognised as revenue over the period during which the service is performed.

Accounting Policies



1.11 Revenue from non exchange transactions

Revenue comprises gross inflows of economic benefits or service potential received and receivable by an entity, which represents an increase in net assets, other than increases relating to contributions from owners.

Conditions on transferred assets are stipulations that specify that the future economic benefits or service potential embodied in the asset is required to be consumed by the recipient as specified or future economic benefits or service potential must be returned to the transferor.

Control of an asset arise when the entity can use or otherwise benefit from the asset in pursuit of its objectives and can exclude or otherwise regulate the access of others to that benefit.

Exchange transactions are transactions in which one entity receives assets or services, or has liabilities extinguished, and directly gives approximately equal value (primarily in the form of cash, goods, services, or use of assets) to another entity in exchange. Fines are economic benefits or service potential received or receivable by entities, as determined by a court or other law enforcement body, as a consequence of the breach of laws or regulations.

Non exchange transactions are transactions that are not exchange transactions. In a non exchange transaction, an entity either receives value from another entity without directly giving approximately equal value in exchange, or gives value to another entity without directly receiving approximately equal value in exchange.

Restrictions on transferred assets are stipulations that limit or direct the purposes for which a transferred asset may be used, but do not specify that future economic benefits or service potential is required to be returned to the transferor if not deployed as specified.

Stipulations on transferred assets are terms in laws or regulation, or a binding arrangement, imposed upon the use of a transferred asset by entities external to the reporting entity.

Transfers are inflows of future economic benefits or service potential from non exchange transactions, other than taxes.

Recognition

An inflow of resources from a non exchange transaction recognised as an asset is recognised as revenue, except to the extent that a liability is also recognised in respect of the same inflow.

As the entity satisfies a present obligation recognised as a liability in respect of an inflow of resources from a non exchange transaction recognised as an asset, it reduces the carrying amount of the liability recognised and recognises an amount of revenue equal to that reduction.

Accounting Policies



Measurement

Revenue from a non exchange transaction is measured at the amount of the increase in net assets recognised by the entity.

When, as a result of a non exchange transaction, the entity recognises an asset, it also recognises revenue equivalent to the amount of the asset measured at its fair value as at the date of acquisition, unless it is also required to recognise a liability. Where a liability is required to be recognised it will be measured as the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date, and the amount of the increase in net assets, if any, recognised as revenue. When a liability is subsequently reduced, because the taxable event occurs or a condition is satisfied, the amount of the reduction in the liability is recognised as revenue.

Transfers

Apart from Services in kind, which are not recognised, the entity recognises an asset in respect of transfers when the transferred resources meet the definition of an asset and satisfy the criteria for recognition as an asset.

The entity recognises an asset in respect of transfers when the transferred resources meet the definition of an asset and satisfy the criteria for recognition as an asset.

Transferred assets are measured at their fair value as at the date of acquisition.

Gifts and donations, including goods in kind

Gifts and donations, including goods in kind, are recognised as assets and revenue when it is probable that the future economic benefits or service potential will flow to the entity and the fair value of the assets can be measured reliably.

Services in kind

Services in kind are not recognised.

1.12 Cost of sales When inventories are sold, the carrying amount of those inventories is recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised. The amount of any write down of inventories to net realisable value and all deficits of inventories are recognised as an expense in the period the write down or loss occurs. The amount of any reversal of any write down of inventories, arising from an increase in net realisable value, is recognised as a reduction in the amount of inventories recognised as an expense in the period in which the reversal occurs.

The related cost of providing services recognised as revenue in the current period is included in cost of sales.

Contract costs comprise:• costs that relate directly to the specific contract;• costs that are attributable to contract activity in general and can be allocated to the contract on a systematic

and rational basis; and• such other costs as are specifically chargeable to the customer under the terms of the contract.

Accounting Policies



1.13 Translation of foreign currencies

Foreign currency transactions

The financial statements are presented in South African Rand since that is the currency in which the majority of the transactions are denominated.

The following are approximate values of currency at the statement of financial performance date for selected currencies:

The information provided is based on an average for the year under review.Current financial year Previous financial yearGBP = R16,56 GBP = R 12,21

USD = R10,24 USD = R 7,70

EURO = R13,86 EURO = R 9,50

A foreign currency transaction is recorded, on initial recognition in Rands, by applying to the foreign currency amount the spot exchange rate between the functional currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction.

At each reporting date:• foreigncurrencymonetaryitemsaretranslatedusingtheclosingrate;• nonmonetary items thataremeasuredin termsofhistoricalcost ina foreigncurrencyare translatedusing the exchange rate at the date of the transaction; and• nonmonetaryitemsthataremeasuredatfairvalueinaforeigncurrencyaretranslatedusingtheexchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined.

Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items or on translating monetary items at rates different from those at which they were translated on initial recognition during the period or in previous financial statements are recognised in surplus or deficit in the period in which they arise.

When a gain or loss on a non monetary item is recognised directly in net assets, any exchange component of that gain or loss is recognised directly in net assets. When a gain or loss on a non monetary item is recognised in surplus or deficit, any exchange component of that gain or loss is recognised in surplus or deficit.

Cash flows arising from transactions in a foreign currency are recorded in Rands by applying to the foreign currency amount the exchange rate between the Rand and the foreign currency at the date of the cash flow.

1.14 Comparative figures

Where necessary, comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to changes in presentation in the current year.

1.15 Fruitless and wasteful expenditure

Fruitless expenditure means expenditure which was made in vain and would have been avoided had reasonable care been exercised.

Accounting Policies



All expenditure relating to fruitless and wasteful expenditure is recognised as an expense in the statement of financial performance in the year that the expenditure was incurred. The expenditure is classified in accordance with the nature of the expense, and where recovered, it is subsequently accounted for as revenue in the statement of financial performance.

1.16 Irregular expenditure

Irregular expenditure as defined in section 1 of the PFMA is expenditure other than unauthorised expenditure, incurred in contravention of or that is not in accordance with a requirement of any applicable legislation, including (a) this Act; or(b) the State Tender Board Act, 1968 (Act No. 86 of 1968), or any regulations made in terms of the Act; or(c) any provincial legislation providing for procurement procedures in that provincial government.

National Treasury practice note no. 4 of 2008/2009 which was issued in terms of sections 76(1) to 76(4) of the PFMA requires the following (effective from 1 April 2008):

Irregular expenditure that was incurred and identified during the current financial and which was condoned before year end and/or before finalisation of the financial statements must also be recorded appropriately in the irregular expenditure register. In such an instance, no further action is also required with the exception of updating the note to the financial statements.

Irregular expenditure that was incurred and identified during the current financial year and for which condonement is being awaited at year end must be recorded in the irregular expenditure register. No further action is required with the exception of updating the note to the financial statements.

Where irregular expenditure was incurred in the previous financial year and is only condoned in the following financial year, the register and the disclosure note to the financial statements must be updated with the amount condoned.

Irregular expenditure that was incurred and identified during the current financial year and which was not condoned by the National Treasury or the relevant authority must be recorded appropriately in the irregular expenditure register. If liability for the irregular expenditure can be attributed to a person, a debt account must be created if such a person is liable in law. Immediate steps must thereafter be taken to recover the amount from the person concerned. If recovery is not possible, the accounting officer or accounting authority may write off the amount as debt impairment and disclose such in the relevant note to the financial statements. The irregular expenditure register must also be updated accordingly. If the irregular expenditure has not been condoned and no person is liable in law, the expenditure related thereto must remain against the relevant programme/expenditure item, be disclosed as such in the note to the financial statements and updated accordingly in the irregular expenditure register.

1.17 Research and development expenditure

Expenditure on research is recognised as an expense when it is incurred.

An asset arising from development is recognised when:• it is technically feasible to complete the asset so that it will be available for use or sale.• there is an intention to complete and use or sell it.

Accounting Policies



• there is an ability to use or sell it.• it will generate probable future economic benefits or service potential.• there are available technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell

the asset.• the expenditure attributable to the asset during its development can be measured reliably.

1.18 Budget information

Entity are typically subject to budgetary limits in the form of appropriations or budget authorisations (or equivalent), which is given effect through authorising legislation, appropriation or similar.

General purpose financial reporting by entity shall provide information on whether resources were obtained and used in accordance with the legally adopted budget.

The approved budget is prepared on a cash basis and presented by economic classification linked to performance outcome objectives.

The approved budget covers the fiscal period from 2013/04/01 to 2014/03/31. The budget for the economic entity includes all the entities approved budgets under its control.

The financial statements and the budget are on the same basis of accounting therefore a comparison with the budgeted amounts for the reporting period have been included in the Statement of comparison of budget and actual amounts.

The Statement of comparative and actual information has been included in the financial statements as the recommended disclosure when the financial statements and the budget are on the same basis of accounting as determined by National Treasury.

1.19 Changes in Accounting Policies

AISA shall account for a change in accounting policy resulting from the initial application of a standard or interpretation in accordance with the transitional provisions, if any, in that standard or interpretation, and when AISA changes an accounting policy upon initial application of a standard or an interpretation that does not include specific transitional provisions applying to that change or changes in accounting policy voluntarily, it shall apply the change retrospectively.

1.20 Offset

Transactions are offset when such offsetting reflects the substance of the transaction or event. Where a legally enforceable right to offset exists for recognised financial assets and financial liabilities, and there is an intention to settle the liability and realise the asset simultaneously, or to settle on a net basis all related financial effects are offset. Financial assets and liabilities are only offset if allowed by the standard.

Accounting Policies5. Property, plant, equipment and intangibles (continued)

The revaluation amount was based on a market related valuation conducted by an independent service provider and was used in the recommendation of the valuations by the independent service provider.

Furniture, fittings and interior

The revaluation adjustment for furniture, fittings and interior amounted to R159,478 and net book value was stated at R1,065,944 (Prior year book value : R1,352,241).

IT equipment

Computer equipment that was older than 18 months, and was found to be in a good condition was assigned an estimated remaining useful life of 18 months. The revaluation of IT equipment amounted to R1,209,161 and the net book value stated at R1,816,600. (Prior year book value : R999,916).

Library holdings (books and journals)

The Library holdings were valued by an independent service provider. The value of the holdings increased from R480,561 to R3,994,519. The fair value of the material (journals and monographs) was assumed to be the selling price in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date 31 March 2014. Assumptions used for the library holdings valuation by the external service provider included the following:

Material that is readily available in public domain and free issues were assumed to have a NIL value.

Where the price of a particular book or material could not be determined, the price of a similar topic by the same author was used. If the information was not available, the lowest price of other similar books on the same topic was used.

Some books and journals that could not practically be valued individually, they were grouped into similar categories and an average unit price to be used was determined. This was then assumed to be the unit price of each of the material in that category.

The prices were only available in foreign currency, the price was converted to South African Rand, using the exchange rate as at 31 March 2014.

A register containing the information required is available for inspection at the registered office of the institution.

9. Post Retirement Medical Aid Obligation

The valuation of the obligation was performed by an external service provider and was performed in line with the requirements of GRAP25. The Projected Unit Credit Method was used to determine the present value of the defined obligation.

Under this method the present value of the obligation is calculated as:

• The full discounted value of expected future benefit payments to continuation members and their qualifying dependants; and

• The proportion of the discounted values of all future benefit payments expected to be made to current active employees that have already been accrued.

• For each active employee, this proportion is the number of years of past service in relation to the total expected years of service. This results in straight line recognition of the cost of the benefits over his or her working lifetime (ignoring the effect of discounting)

In order to value the future benefit payments, a number of assumptions had to be made, such as the rate at which medical scheme contributions increase, the rate at which employees leave the company and the death rates experienced by employees and pensioners.

GRAP25 further requires the valuation to be a “realistic” reflection of the liability. The assumptions used are neither imprudent nor conservative and reflect our best estimate of the relevant factors.

Assumptions used

The economic assumptions for the 31 March 2014 valuation are reflected below inclusive of prior year comparison figures: Gross discount rate : 8,62% (2013: 6,65%) Healthcare cost inflation: 8,26% (2013: 7,17%) Net discount rate: 0,33% (2013: 0,49%)

The estimated discount rate was set equal to the yield on a zero coupon government bond with a term of 9 years.

GRAP 25 requires that the discount rate used in the valuation be determined by reference to market yields on government bonds as at the Statement of Financial Position date. In line with GRAP 25 and current market practice, government bond yields are therefore used when setting our best estimate rate assumption.

The currency and term of the government bonds shall be consistent with the currency and estimated term of the post employment benefit obligations.



Amount in Rand 2014 2013

9. Post Retirement Medical Aid Obligation (continued)

The estimated discount rate was set equal to the yield on the BEASSA zero coupon yield curve with a term of 9 years, the expected duration of the liability based on the current membership data, as at 31 March 2014.

Demographic assumptions

The demographic assumptions for the 31 March 2014 valuation are shown below:

Key demographic assumptions 31 March 2014 31 March 2013

Post retirement mortality PA (90) rated down 1 year PA (90) rated down 1 year for males and females plus 1% future for males and females mortality improvement from 2013

Expected retirement age 60 years for males and females 60 years for males and females Percentage of widows continuing 100% Not detailed in previous valuation

Spouse and principal member Actual details Male 4 years older than female age difference

Child mortality n/a Not detailed in previous valuation

Age to which child payments are No value will be placed Not detailed in previous valuation made on benefits payable to child dependants

Assumptions are set which are consistent with market practice and with investigations performed where there is a significant amount of data. The mortality assumptions are also in line with those commonly used in the retirement industry.

Post retirement mortality

PA (90) is commonly used in the retirement industry. However, given the fact that pensioners are living longer than at the time the information was compiled, we have rated the PA (90) table down by one year for both males and females. This means that the mortality rate assumed for an individual in the valuation is the rate provided in the table for an individual one year younger. This is consistent with last year’s assumption.

There is a strong argument for inclusion of mortality improvements in the assumption (1.00% to 1.50% per annum at all ages would be reasonable), given the improvements that have occurred at the post retirement ages in most developed countries over the past forty years, as well as the evidence of improvements observed by larger actuarial service providers in South Africa. We therefore included a 1% per annum mortality improvement factor from 2013 onwards. No mortality improvements was included at the previous valuation.

Notes to the Financial Statements





Spouse and principal member age difference

Actual age differences are applied for continuation members. For the previous valuation it was assumed that males will be four years older than their wives.

Child dependants

No value has been placed on benefits payable to child dependants. The impact is likely to be immaterial and not allowing for child dependants is generally applied by other actuaries in the market place. Details regarding this assumption were not given in the previous report.

Defined benefit obligation

The actuarial present value of all benefits were based on past service and projected subsidy levels and (if applicable) future indexation of benefits.

The following summary statistics are in respect of continuation members, as well as their dependants as at the current and previous valuation date. Continuation members 31 March 2014 31 March 2013

Current employees are not entitled to the post retirement medical subsidy at both the current and previous valuation dates.

Paragraph 101 of Directive 4 required that upon adoption of GRAP 25, the entity are required to present a reconciliation of the net liability determined using its previous accounting policy, and the net liability determined using the Standard of GRAP on Employee Benefits, showing separately the effect of:• Unrecognised actuarial gains and losses;• Unrecognised past service costs; and• Other changes






The reconciliation of the net defined benefit obligation (“DBO”) as required by GRAP 25 is presented below:

Current service cost





This is the increase in the liability resulting from members having worked for an additional year. An additional year of service increases the proportion of their total liability that is regarded as accrued under the Projected Unit Credit Method.

Interest Cost

This represents the increase in the liability resulting from the future subsidies being one year closer to the valuation date. It was calculated as the opening liability plus the current service cost less benefit payments expected during the year multiplied by the discount rate used in the previous valuation.

Actuarial gains (losses)

The value of the liability will change over the year due to changes in actuarial assumptions as well as actual membership experience (withdrawals, deaths etc.) being different from that assumed at the previous valuation date. The results were prepared in line with the following accounting policy:

Actuarial gains and losses during the valuation period, arising from experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions, are recognised immediately in the Statement of Financial Performance. The total actuarial gains/(losses) for the employer during the financial year ending 31 March 2015 arose as a result of the following factors:

Analysis Gain/(loss) R 1) Change in model (including interest for the year) (320)

2) Actual exits vs. expected 333

3) Change in economic assumptions 73

4) Change in demographic assumptions (56)

5) Actual vs. expected increase in subsidies (28)

6) Other miscellaneous items 22

Actuarial gain/(loss) 24

The model and methodology used during this valuation resulted in a loss of R320,000.

The reasons for the difference can be attributed to the following:• The previous valuation report applied an age differential of 4 years to calculate the age of the spouses. At

the current valuation actual ages of the spouses were utilized.• Previous valuation comprised of 3 males and 3 females as members. All 6 continuations members are males:• Change in medical aid options and medical aid service providers.





Actual exits during the year were more than expected which resulted in a gain of R333,000.

An increase in the net discount rate from 0,49% to 0.33% caused a decrease in the DBO, resulting in a gain of R73,000.

The loss of 56,000 due to a change in demographic assumptions arose due to an allowance for improvement in mortality assumptions.

The actual subsidy increases were higher than expected. This will increase the liability and lead to an actuarial loss of approximately R28,000.

There is an unexplained actuarial gain of approximately R22,000, which was not further investigated.

A sensitivity analysis for the healthcare cost inflation, discount rate and the post retirement mortality improvement assumptions were performed as at the valuation date. Sensitivity on defined benefit obligation as at 31 March 2014

Healthcare cost inflation 1% decrease Base (CPI + 2%) 1% increase (941) (1,026) (1,124)Discount rate 1% decrease Base (8.62%) 1% increase (1,125) (1,026) (924)

Post retirement mortality improvements 0.5% improvement Base (1% improvement) 1.5% improvement (997) (1,026) (1,058)

Healthcare cost inflation

In the past, healthcare cost inflation has typically exceeded the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) by a margin of 1% to 2%.

The inflation assumption methodology apply the real and nominal yield curves to determine the inflation assumption as this provides information on the outlook on inflation at specific durations. Therefore, the best estimate inflation assumption is calculated as the difference between the nominal and real yield curves at the point corresponding to the duration of the liability, including a 0.5% inflation risk premium adjustment to make appropriate allowance for the current economic environment. A margin of 2% was added to this value to determine the healthcare cost inflation assumption.

The CPI inflation between the gross discount rate and healthcare cost inflation rate is more important than the individual values. The net discount rate is also a highly significant assumption in the respective valuations.




Amount in Rand 2014 2013 9. Post Retirement Medical Aid Obligation (continued)

The future medical benefits are projected in line with the healthcare cost inflation rate and discounted at the gross discount rate. This is equivalent to discounting the benefits at their current level at the net discount rate.

The net discount rate therefore depends on the relationship between the gross discount rate and the healthcare cost inflation rate respectively. Using the gross discount and healthcare cost inflation rates as shown above, the resulting net discount rate is 0.33% (calculated as (1 + discount rate)/(1 + healthcare cost inflation rate) 1) for the period ending 31 March 2014.

Benefit rules

Subsidy levels

There is currently no policy regarding the post retirement healthcare subsidy in place. The continuation members inform AISA on a monthly basis, of their medical aid contributions. AISA then pays a specified subsidy of their medical aid contributions based on the following subsidy and benefit rules as was detailed in the previous valuation report.

AISA offered employees and continuation members the opportunity of belonging to one of several medical aid schemes, most of which offer a range of options pertaining to levels of cover.

Upon retirement, an employee may continue membership of the medical scheme. Upon a member’s death in retirement, the surviving dependants may continue membership of the medical scheme.

All continuation members receive a 30% subsidy of their total contributions to their chosen medical aid option. Upon a member’s death in retirement, the surviving dependants will continue to receive the same 30% subsidy.

The assumption was used that continuation members will remain on their current medical options.

This committed expenditure relates to special projects entered into agreements between the related parties. At year end the projects were incomplete and the remainder of the funding was allocated to income received in advance. The book project for R114,600 was not completed at financial year end. Other commitments to the amount of R994,504 refer to contractual obligations that will continue after incorporation date due to service providers.





23. Commitments (continued)

Operating leases as lessor (income)

Minimum lease payments due

- within one year 31 006 118 598 A portion of the institution’s premises is held to generate rental income. Rental of office space is expected to generate rental yields of 10% on an ongoing basis. Lease agreements are non cancellable and have a remaining term of 3 months. There are no contingent rents receivable and the agreement will not be considered for renewal as the current lease agreement ends in June 2014 and AISA will move to the HSRC premises.

24. Contingencies

Contingent liabilities

The liabilities listed below are listed as there are uncertainties relating to the amounts and timing of the outflows.

Employees contribution to pension fund in terms of total cost to company

ABSA Consultants and Actuaries conducted an actuarial valuation for all employees who incorrectly contributed in terms of their total cost to company remuneration structure to the previous defined benefit plan. In terms of the defined benefit plan this was incorrectly contributed and as per the valuation a liability to an estimated value of R1,985,547 was calculated. Nineteen employees and 5 former employees were identified. The nineteen active employees were addressed through the distribution of the R1,598,201 but a possible liability could arise for the R1,985,547 plus growth.

The possible liability was included in the scope of the pension fund audit which is currently being conducted by an independent service provider. In addition to this a legal opinion was also requested in terms of the right to claim by the former employees prior to consideration of recognising the liability. Contingent assets

Shares and dividends

AISA currently holds to two potential assets which are currently disclosed under income received in advance. This income relates to shares and dividends which were paid out in March 2014 prior to incorporation. The value of the sold shares and dividends received amounted to R248,128.41 There is uncertainty in terms of the possible distribution of the shares and whether the full income resides with the institution or should be distributed to the members who contributed to the group life scheme at the date when demutualisation shares were issued.

Shares and dividends were also paid into the AISA Pension Fund, which will also require consideration of distribution to members and/or the institution.




24. Contingencies (continued)

Pension Fund Surplus

AISA also has a pension fund surplus currently stated under income received in advance to the amount of R2,574,539 (2012/13: R1,521,606.54) The accumulative amount refers to the holiday period granted by the Financial Services Board to offset the surplus valuated at the date of conversion from a defined benefit to a defined contribution fund in 2010.

Both matters were also included in the scope of the pension fund audit.

27. Members’ emoluments

Member emolument information is set out in detail on page 112.

28. Prior period errors

Prior period errors were identified and corrected. The errors refers to incorrect allocation of rental for the prior year, assets additions for the prior year incorrectly accounted for in the current year and a UIF error relating to amounts payable to employees. The impact of the errors are detailed below:

Statement of financial position Receivables from exchange transactions was understated - 257 306 Trade payables was understated - UIF - (154 372) Property Plant and Equipment was understated - 52 709 Statement of Financial Performance Rates and Taxes was overstated - (257 306) Employee related cost for prior year was understated UIF - 154 372 Acquisition of assets was understated - (52 709)

29. Financial Risk management

Financial risk management

The Institution’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, fair value interest rate risk, cash flow interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.

The Institution’s overall risk management process focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the entity’s financial performance. The entity uses derivative financial





29. Financial Risk management (continued)

instruments to hedge certain risk exposures. Risk management is carried out by the Finance Division under the overall Risk Management Policy approved by the Council. The Council provides guiding principles for overall risk management, as well as written policies covering areas, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative financial instruments and non derivative financial instruments, and investment of excess liquidity.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that will derive if the Institute has insufficient funds available to settle obligations when they are due. The Institute has limited risk due to the recurring nature of its income.

The Institution’s risk to liquidity is a result of the funds available to cover future commitments. The Institute manages liquidity risk through an ongoing review of future commitments.

Cash flow forecasts are prepared and monitored. AISA is solvent with total assets less current liabilities at R18,398,282 (inclusive of revaluation of assets). In terms of liquidity, the Institution is liquid with the current ratio at 2,66:1 (2012/13: R2,36:1 restated) which means that for every R1 of current liabilities the entity has R2,66 (2012/13: R2,36 restated) of current assets to cover its liabilities.

Foreign Exchange Risk

Foreign exchange risk is the risk that fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate in South African Rand (“ZAR”) due to changes in foreign exchange rates.

AISA operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk that arises from various currency exposures, primarily with respect to the Euro, US dollar and the UK pound. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions (sales of books/publications), international travel and subscriptions with foreign organisations. The institute does not hedge and did not enter into any forward exchange contracts during the period under review. The Institution did not incurr any foreign exchange loss for the period under review and the risk is therefore limited to the extent that transactions occur. The total value of foreign exchange transactions for the 2013/14 financial year amounted to R416,579 (2012/13 : R335,613).

Foreign Currency Sensitivity

At year end, the Institute is exposed to fluctuations mainly in US dollar, GBP and Euro as some trade receivable balances are denominated in these currencies. The potential exposure on these balances resulting from fluctuations in the currencies. ZAR exchange rate would not result in a significant impact on the statement of financial performance as the Institution has no significant interest bearing assets. The Institution’s income and operating cash flows are dependent of changes in market interest rates.





29. Financial Risk management (continued) Interest rate risk

The Institute’s cash flow interest rate arises from cash and cash equivalents, loan receivables and finance lease obligations. The Institute is not exposed to fair value interest rate risk as the Institute does not have any fixed interest bearing financial instruments carried at fair value.

Interest rates are constantly monitored and appropriate steps are taken to ensure that the institution’s exposure to interest rate fluctuations is limited. Interest Rate Sensitivity

A change of 50 basis points in the South African prime interest rate at the reporting date would have decreased profit or loss before. This analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2013.

The prime interest rate at year end was 9% (2013: 8.5%).

Other Price Risks

The institute is not exposed to risk arising from fluctuations in other market prices.

Credit risk

Credit risk is managed on an individual basis.

The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each financial asset in the statement of financial performance (net of impairment losses where relevant). At statement of financial position date there were no significant concentrations of credit risk.

Credit risk consists mainly of cash deposits, cash equivalents, and trade debtors. The Institution only deposits cash with major banks with high quality credit standing and limits exposure to any counter party.

Trade receivables comprise a widespread customer base. Management evaluated credit risk relating to customers on an ongoing basis. If customers are independently rated, these ratings are used. Otherwise, if there is no independent rating, risk control assesses the credit quality of the customer, taking into account its financial position, past experience and other factors. Exposure to credit risk on loan and other receivable balances is monitored as part of the Finance Division’s daily procedures. Cash investments are only placed with reputable financial institutions. The exposure to Credit risk is limited as the Institution endeavors to recover outstanding debt within 30 days.





30. Going concern

The Minister of Science and Technology announced that AISA will be incorporated into the HSRC. The legal process of repealing the AISA Act was completed and effective 1 April 2014. The AISA MTEF (Medium Term Expenditure Framework) budget was ring-fenced for the next three years. All staff, assets, rights, obligations and liabilities were transferred to the HSRC.

The Africa Institute of South Africa received a grant from the Department of Science and Technology to the amount of R35 237 000 (2013 : R33 643 000). This grant will continue to be received as a programme under the HSRC.
