1. An Update on the National Infrastructure Plan and the SIPs 04 September 2015

2. Contents Purpose Mandate Background of the National Infrastructure Plan SIP project status Institutional enablers

3. Purpose To provide an update on the Strategic Integrated Projects (SIPs) that have a footprint in the Eastern Cape.

4. Mandate Co-ordinate interface of PICC with the Province Monitor and report on strategic infrastructure initiatives Develop strategic propositions to strengthen the case for the inclusion of key Eastern Cape infrastructure projects in the National Infrastructure Plan Mobilise key stakeholders in support of the infrastructure initiatives

5. Background The New Growth Path sets a goal of 5 million new jobs by 2020; Identifies structural problems in the economy to be overcome and points to opportunities in specific sectors and markets ( jobs drivers ) The 1st jobs driver is infrastructure: laying the basis for higher growth, inclusivity and job creation Blockages include weak implementation capacity in parts of the state (with unspent monies) and poor project development planning

6. Response Eighteen Strategic Integrated Projects(SIPs) have been developed and approved to support economic development and address service delivery in the poorest provinces. Each SIP comprise of a large number of specific infrastructure components and programmes PICC established to drive and oversee the National Infrastructure Plan

7. PICC mandate To ensure systematic selection, planning and monitoring of large projects ; The Terms Of Reference include the following objectives Identify 5 year priorities Develop 20 year project pipeline Development objectives include skills, localisation, empowerment, research & development Expand maintenance of new and existing infrastructure Improve infrastructure links in rural areas and poorest provinces Address capacity constraints and improve coordination and integration Scale up investment in infrastructure

8. Strategic Integrated Projects SIPs 1 - 9 SIPs 10 - 18 SIP 1: Unlocking the Northern Mineral Belt with Waterberg as the Catalyst SIP 2: Durban- Free State Gauteng Logistics and Industrial Corridor SIP 3: South Eastern node & corridor development SIP 4: Unlocking economic opportunities in the NW Province SIP 5: Saldanha-Northern Cape Development Corridor SIP 6: Integrated Municipal Infrastructure Project SIP 15: Expanding access to communication SIP 10: Electricity transmission and distribution for all SIP 11: Agri-logistics and rural infrastructure SIP 12: Revitalisation of public hospitals and other health facilities SIP 13: National school build programme SIP 14: Higher Education infrastructure technology SIP 7: Integrated Urban Space and Public Transport Programme SIP 16: SKA and Meerkat SIP 8: Green energy in support of the South African economy SIP 9: Electricity generation in support of socio- economic development SIP 17: Regional integration for African cooperation and development SIP 18: Bulk water supply and distribution

9. SIPS with an EC footprint SIPs 1 - 9 SIPs 10 - 18 SIP 1: Unlocking the Northern Mineral Belt with Waterberg as the Catalyst SIP 2: Durban- Free State Gauteng Logistics and Industrial Corridor SIP 10: Electricity transmission and distribution for all SIP 11: Agri-logistics and rural infrastructure SIP 3: South Eastern node & corridor development SIP 12: Revitalisation of public hospitals and other health facilities SIP 4: Unlocking economic opportunities in the NW Province SIP 13: National school build programme SIP 5: Saldanha-Northern Cape Development Corridor SIP 6: Integrated Municipal Infrastructure Project SIP 15: Expanding access to communication SIP 14: Higher Education infrastructure technology SIP 7: Integrated Urban Space and Public Transport Programme SIP 16: SKA and Meerkat SIP 8: Green energy in support of the South African economy SIP 9: Electricity generation in support of socio- economic development SIP 17: Regional integration for African cooperation and development SIP 18: Bulk water supply and distribution

10. SIP 3: South Eastern node & corridor development A geographic SIP that is catalytic and covers KZN, Eastern cape and Northern Cape. The objective is to promote rural development through a new dam at Umzimvubu with irrigation systems and the N2- Wildcoast Highway which improves access into KZN and national supply chains; strengthen economic development in PE through a manganese rail capacity from N Cape, a manganese sinter (NC) and smelter (EC); Mthombo refinery (Coega) and transshipment hub at Ngqura and port and rail upgrades to improve industrial capacity and performance of the automotive sector.

11. SIP 3 projects per project phase Projects at planning and feasibility phase o Manganese Smelter o Mthombo Refinery o N2 Wild Coast Highway o Mzimvubu Multipurpose Development Project Projects at execution phase: o Manganese ore rail from Hotazel to Ngqura o increase Ngqura port capacity into a transhipment hub o Mthatha airport terminal building (& Runway) Complete projects o Mthatha River Bridge Project (one way system) o Mandela Legacy Bridge and Road

12. SIP 6: Integrated Municipal Infrastructure SIP6 has been established to develop national capacity to assist the 23 district municipalities with the fewest resources to: o Address all the maintenance backlogs and upgrades required; o Coordinate, integrate and accelerate implementation of new infrastructure; and o Promote integrated service delivery across all spheres of government and sectors. The EC Districts are Alfred Nzo, Oliver Tambo, Chris Hani, Joe Gqabi and Amathole.

13. SIP 6 (2) The Back to Basics assessment has revealed capacity and capability limitations across the DM s & LM s with respect to planning and implementation management of infrastructure The Province is establishing a shared technical capacity support of a PMU focussing on infrastructure planning, implementation management and SCM A PMO has been established at MISA to conduct an assessment of the 27 Districts for service delivery backlogs on water and sanitation, roads and transport and electrification

14. SIP 6 : Way forward Project 1: Municipal Infrastructure delivery performance (spending etc) Project 2: Provincial Municipal infrastructure programme Project 3: Human settlement projects

15. SIP 7 : Integrated Urban Space & Public Transport Project 1: IPTS (make point that these are being dropped) Project 2: BCM Catalytic Projects (NT supported projects) Project 3: NMBM Catalytic Projects (NT supported projects)

20. SIP 9: Electricity Generation to support socio- economic development Accelerate the construction of new electricity generation capacity in accordance with the IRP2010 to meet the needs of the economy and address historical imbalances. DEDEAT assigned NMMU to conduct research on the shale gas initiative The likelihood for a nuclear energy plant at Thyspunt in the Eastern Cape ;

21. SIP 10: Electricity Transmission and Distribution for all Expand the transmission and distribution network to address historical imbalances, provide access to electricity for all and support economic development.

22. Hot spot municipalities Twelve municipalities were identified as hotspots with respect to electrification; An Intervention Team of DoE, ESKOM and the OTP was set up to drive interventions; A need of R 90 m was identified as an urgent need for reallocation to EC Municipalities; ESKOM was also requested to reallocate its budget to hotspot Municipalities; Municipalities were encouraged to utilise the frontloading facility to accelerate electrification;

23. SIP 11: Agri-logistics and rural infrastructure Improve investment in agricultural and rural infrastructure that supports expansion of production and employment, small-scale farming and rural development, processing facilities (abattoirs, dairy infrastructure), aquaculture incubation schemes and rural tourism infrastructure. NAMC has completed a business plan with 26 anchor projects for consideration by the PICC Seven of the 26 projects have a footprint in the Eastern Cape
