5 Foreword This Annual Performance Plan draws from a comprehensively reviewed Strategic Plan 2015/16 Update. The critical aspect of the Strategic Plan s review has been the use of the Performance Information Framework (PI Framework) provided for in the National Treasury Framework for Strategic Plans and Annual Performance Plans throughout all components of the Plan. In addition the review sought to address the AG- SA s audit findings sufficiently the Audit of Predetermine Objectives showed improvement in usefulness and reliability and an improvement in financial performance from qualified to unqualified. The use of the Performance Information Framework in the Strategic Plan has resulted in a number of improvements within the Services SETAs both in planning and operational terms. Firstly, it has brought the Services SETAs planning approach in line with the National Treasury guidelines. Secondly, it has improved the alignment between the Services SETAs Strategic Goals and the Government s key strategic priorities that included but not limited to the Medium Term Strategic Framework; the Government Outcomes; National Skills Development Strategy III and National Development Plan. From the operations point of view, the Performance Dimension exercise of the PI Framework was used to cluster the current (APP 2014/15) Key Performance Indicators into desired performance categories, for example, input, activity, output, outcome or impact. A decision was made to set the predetermined strategic objectives at the outcome or impact level. This process resulted in a significant reduction of the current number of KPIs from 144 to 60 for APP 2014/15 and APP 2015/16, respectively. The reduced number of KPIs will firstly help to focus the Services SETA attention to impact performance as opposed to activity/output performance as is currently the case. The process will further result in a manageable number of indicators for the management team and the Accounting Authority that will enable them to steer the organisation towards realising the desired impact. The process of revising this APP 2015/16 has been oriented towards capacity development in approach. A series of workshops were held with the Board and Management to provide a theoretical understanding of the planning approach of the Government. We also went through the planning steps as outlined in the Framework for Strategic Plans and Annual Performance Plans and broad guide as provided for in the Framework for Managing Programme Performance Information. This APP (2015/16), as identified in the strategic goals, strives to guide the Services SETA to: build a skilled and capable workforce; improve the relevant skills pipeline into the sector; enhance sector capabilities to identify needs, plan and implement timely responses, and strengthen Services SETA capability to lead the sector and its compliance with governance imperatives. These Goals contribute directly to Government Strategic Outcome: a skilled and capable workforce to support inclusive growth, and Outcome 12 an efficient, effective and development oriented public service, and an empowered, fair and inclusive citizenship.

9 Part A: STRATEGIC OVERVIEW 1 UPDATED SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS 1.1 Performance delivery environment According to the SSP, some 155,000 employers are classified under the Services Sector of which 90% are small (employing less than 50 employees). A total of 28% are levy paying employers. The 70 standard industrial classification codes falling within the scope of the Services Sector, as per Ministerial demarcation, are clustered into 16 sub-sectors and further into 6 chambers. From the table below, a majority of employers fall under the Management and Business Services chamber. Proportion of employers by chamber Total LPE NLPE Cleaning and Hiring Services 2% 2% 2% Communications and Management Services 2% 2% 2% Labour and Collective Services 2% 3% 2% Management and Business Services 81% 10% 71% Personal Care Services 5% 5% 5% Real Estate and Related Services 7% 6% 8% The Services Sector further differs from other sectors in that employers have significantly diverse core business services. Most employers are however classified under the tertiary economic sector often supplying primary and secondary economic sectors with services. Data show sustained growth in the number of tertiary economic sector employers. Sector employers are concentrated in three provinces as follows: 56% in Gauteng, 14% in Western Cape and 9% in KwaZulu-Natal. The balance of 21% is spread across the other six provinces. The performance delivery environment has significant implications for planning. The number of role-players that the Services SETA is required to engage with is substantially in comparison to other sectors. The high percentage of small companies, unlikely to have dedicated skills development specialists and capacity for workplace skills planning, creates a reliance on the Services SETA for support in accessing mandatory and discretionary grants. The SSP research identified and prioritised 78 scarce skills for which degrees/diplomas and skills programmes are most applicable and 85 critical skills for which skills programmes are most applicable. The top 10 scarce skills are at different stages of the skills development cycle. Qualifications are available for 9 out of the 10 scarce skills. However, 3 of these are being revised in accordance with new QCTO requirements. One scarce skill has no registered qualification for which development is pending. This plan provides for learner enrolment targets across all learning interventions. The prioritisation and representivity of service delivery should consider the performance delivery environment. The criteria for awarding Services SETA funded discretionary grants to employers should consider alignment to identified scarce skills. Services SETA annual performance plan 2015/16 1

10 1.2 Organisational environment The period of administration effectively ended on 30 June The induction of the newly appointed Accounting Authority and the appointment of the Chief Executive Officer took place in July Accounting Authority Committees were established soon thereafter, which was further strengthening governance, leadership and accountability. The Accounting Authority accepted the organisational structure approved in June 2013 noting that several posts were unfunded. The Accounting Authority resolved that only critical funded posts should be filled. In summary, as at 30 September 2013: The approved unfunded organogram, as at June 2013, comprised of 318 permanent positions of which 100 were vacant The funded organogram comprised 256 permanent of which 38 were vacant 23 temporary positions were contracted The organograms are represented in the Strategic Plan by programme enabling consideration of capacity against predetermined objectives, performance indicators and targets. A project is underway to improve and streamline business processes in order to enhance efficiency and effectiveness. 2 REVISIONS TO LEGISLATIVE AND OTHER MANDATES The Sector Skills Plan and Strategic Plan discuss the policy and regulatory frameworks that govern the mandate of the Services SETA and their implications for planning. The Sector Skills Plan further identifies subsector legislative changes that affect the business of employers falling within the scope of the Services Sector. The purpose of this section is not to replicate details provided in the SSP and SP, but only to indicate changes to the policy and regulatory framework that hold implications for the coming year (and hence the APP). The SP divides the regulatory and policy frameworks into 3 sets: Legislation, regulations and policies constituting the national development framework. Here, the National Development Plan and associated strategies define the impact level of measurement for skills development. Recent changes here include: The 12 national outcomes which are the basis of the national monitoring and evaluation system have been extended to 14 outcomes, to align the outcomes with the NDP. The two new outcomes are also relevant to Services SETA, and must be reflected at an operational level in implementing this APP. The National Youth Accord was signed in This makes a specific commitment to youth development, and is reflected in the youth development priorities and targets in the APP. The Medium-Term Strategic Framework has been updated from the MTSF , to the new MTSF The goals and purposes of the new MTSF have been included in the SP and are reflected also in the APP. There has been substantial progress in planning the Strategic Integrated Projects key to the New Growth Path. Services SETA has been centrally involved in the planning; and this APP reflects a major investment of Services SETA resources in skills development for the sector. Services SETA annual performance plan 2015/16 2

11 Second, skills development legislation and policy shapes the role and functions of Services SETA, as well as associated practices at workplace and provider level. The National Skills Development Strategy III will end its cycle in 2016, and work is already underway to develop NSDS IV. While not yet formalised as policy, elements of the review process are already being implemented and have influenced this APP: NSDS III proposed a credible institutional mechanism for skills planning. The Labour Market Intelligence Program has effectively centralised many aspects of skills planning. This APP reflects skills planning interventions that collaborate with national skills planning. The review of the SETA system under the national HRD Council has also proposed a regionalisation of skills planning and a localisation of skills development. This APP reflects interventions to develop provincial and sub-sector skills plans therefore. Many of the skills development interventions are implemented in a way that promotes localisation. The review processes also point to an increased collaboration across SETAs; between SETAs and public providers; and between providers and employers. All these trends are accordingly reflected in the interventions and targets proposed in this APP. A centralisation of the quality assurance system under the QCTO has been underway for some time. The Services SETA QMD division has been restructured to reflect the delegation of functions by the QCTO. The SETA Grant Regulations regarding monies received by a SETA and related matters, published on 3 December 2012 effective 1 April 2013, impacted significantly on financial and performance planning. The financial implications are set out in section 3. The reduction in mandatory grant reimbursements is countered with an increase in discretionary grant funding whereby employers can submit applications for SETA funded PIVOTAL programmes that address scarce and critical skills. Plans to increase the number of employers that claim mandatory grants and discretionary grant application processes required new approaches and enhanced communication and support to role-players. The benefits of these changes are anticipated to be realised to a greater extent in the 2014/15 financial year. Other laws and regulations affecting the state more widely (including SETAs), such as the PFMA, PAIA and PAJA. These fall outside the scope of consideration for an APP. The Services SETA Sector Skills Plan, Strategic Plan, Annual Performance Plan and Service Level Agreement seek to operationalise the priorities contained in all national policy, legislation and regulations and as determined by the Executive Authority.

12 3 OVERVIEW OF THE BUDGET AND MTEF ESTIMATES 3.1 Legislative Mandate The Service Sector Education and Training Authority (Services SETA) is a statutory body established in terms of the Skills Development Act of 1998 (as amended) with the aim of enabling its stakeholders to advance skills levels in the sector in accordance with government's growth initiatives. The Services SETA initiates skills development projects and learning interventions aimed at the improvement and development of South African human resources. The Services SETA has an obligation in respect of its stakeholders to ensure that skills in the Services Sector are developed. The ENE Budget which forms an integral part of the Annual Performance Plan, is approved by the Accounting Authority and then submitted to Executive Authority which is the Minister of Higher Education and Training / /18 MTEF budget overview There were no significant regulatory changes over the MTEF period: Previously, levy income was split as follows: Discretionary 20% Mandatory 50% Admin 10% Balance of 20% transferred to the National Skills Fund Amended regulations: Discretionary 49.5% Mandatory 20% Admin 10.5% Balance of 20% transferred to the National Skills Fund 3.3 Revenue Levies The forecast for 2014/15 was prepared taking into account the average year to August 2014 levy income and extrapolating for the remainder of the financial year. It is projected that levy income will total R1.259 billion which represents a R114 million increase from the original budget. This is mainly attributable to the higher than budgeted for salary increases of employer companies that belong to the Services SETA s sector. The budget for 2015/16 is expected to increase by 8% due to the rebranding of the Services SETA and will amount to R1.365 billion. Services SETA annual performance plan 2015/16 4

13 3.3.2 Investment Income Interest income is estimated to increase by 127% from budget of R58 million which results in a projected interest income of R131 million. The cash and cash equivalents balance has increased by 18% to R2.790 billion. The increase in cash and cash equivalents is mainly attributable to the delays in contracting and project roll-out which will be finalised by Jan Interest income is estimated to decrease by 24% from revised budget of R130 million which results in a projected interest income of R98 million. The cash and cash equivalents balance will decrease as contracts are conclude and will start disbursing discretionary grants. It is anticipated that investment income will start narrowing off from in the middle of the financial year as it is anticipated that payments from the 2015/16 allocation will start in July Refer to the detail in the ENE database file for further information. 3.4 Administration Expenditure The New Skills Development Regulations limit the administration costs of SETA to 10.5% of Levies actually received. The administration costs of the SETA are therefore limited to the projected levy income of R179 million for 2015/16. It is anticipated that there will be an unfavourable variance of 11% for administration expenditure for the 2015/16 financial year compared to the 2014/15 revised budget of R160 million. The unfavourable variance is mainly attributable to the Organisational Redesign project which will overlap into the 2015/16 financial year. The costs will cover the following, inter alia: Appointment of service provider to provide an IT support Development and implementation of a Learner Portal and Management Information systems Upgrade of the financial system Development and implementation of an integrated marketing strategy. Refer to the detail in the ENE database file and APP for further information Mandatory Grants It is anticipated that mandatory grant expenditure will increase by 15% compared to the projection for 2014/15. This is attributable to the activities that will be identified by the Marketing and Communications strategy which is currently being developed. These include amongst others rebranding of Services SETA. Refer to the detail in the ENE database file and APP for further information Discretionary Grants The Services SETA has subjected all the commitments from the previous year amounting to R274 million to a forensic audit investigation, this will assist in identifying slow moving and dormant projects that need to be discontinued. Based on this exercise the Services SETA has allocated an amount of R300 million to remedial projects. The Services SETA has not funded discretionary grants for the past two financial years. During the 2014/15 financial year, the Services SETA has allocated R511 million for 13,492 learners and 10,120 learners for phase 1 and 2 respectively, 25% of the allocation in phase 1 has already been contract, whereas 75% is still Services SETA annual performance plan 2015/16 5

14 in progress due to delay in entities submitting learners information, it is expected that the contracting process will be completed in December Letters of intent has been issued to the entities with regard to allocations made in phase two and it is expected to be completed by Feb The DG funding window for 2014/15 is open and will close in 09 December This is targeted at 11,634 learners in different interventions to the amount of R300 million. This process will be fully completed in March In addition to this the Services SETA will be calling for applications in different intervention targeting 23,200 learners to the value of R600 million. The Services SETA has introduced a performance based system to pay training providers. In addition to the above an amount of R169 million has been earmarked for the DHET priority projects. An amount R692 million has been earmarked for priority projects identified by the Services Accounting Authority, the allocation and contracting process will be completed in March The difference between the original budget and the capped budget of R227 million has been incorporated in the 2015/16 commitments. The total revised budget for discretionary grants is R419 million comprising of direct costs R333 million (stipends) and R85 million for project administration costs.

The Quality Management unit is responsible for the development of qualifications of the Services SETA. It is also provides accreditation to training providers as well as assuring quality of learners achievements. Learning intervention units deals with the development and maintenance of a learning interventions policy framework, developing project implementation plans, identifying workplaces, employers, learners to participate in Services SETA programmes, facilitation of procurement processes, contracting project managers and providers to deliver programmes, monthly reports to Projects office on status of projects, contract management, quality management of process implementation, uploading of Learner Templates, site visits for pre-qualifying and monitoring, processing of invoices to Finance, resolving learner and employer enquiries and performance management of projects. The Mandatory Grant unit relates to the promotion of sound planning and reporting via quality WSPs and ATRs, mandatory grant payments, inter-seta transfers and Skills Development Facilitators support. The programme also covers the development of policies, procedures, criteria etc. for the allocation of SETA mandatory grants. Mandatory Grants are paid in terms of sub-regulation 6(2) of the SDA. Member organisations that submit WSPs and ATRs are entitled to receive a proportion of the levy (1% of salaries paid) as a mandatory grant, subject to meeting certain requirements that the SETA may set. The primary purpose of Chambers and Provincial Office units is to facilitate the development of sector, subsector and regional plans that are research based and monitored jointly with stakeholders. The main research focus will be on understanding the Services SETA through labour market information research and to identify skills needs and the scarce and critical skills in order to adopt a sound framework for strategic planning. This will lead to the construction of a comprehensive sector profile and analysis for the sector and its sub-sectors. There will also be a focus on partnerships with FET and HET institutions, strategies to develop strong credible research and the availability and accessibility of research to the sector and the public.

72 ANNEXURE C: DISCRETIONARY GRANT CAPPED EXPENDITURE The Services SETA was advised to cap its 2015/16 expenditure. As per the Annual Performance Plan Addendum 2014/15, 100% of the capped budget has been deducted from the pivotal learning programmes budget as illustrated in table 1 below due to the following: Mandatory Grant allocations are determined through statutory regulation at 20% of levy income. Administration costs fixed at 10.5% of levy income are largely made up of human resources and related operational costs that cannot be reduced over the short-term. Discretionary Grant project administration and enabling programmes are project and activity costs that are not directly linked to learner volumes. Notwithstanding, the late enrolment of learners from the previous financial year necessitates maintenance of capacity and planned activities. Table 2 and explanatory notes that follow shows that the capped budget will enable the Services SETA to enrol 44% (13,473/30,872) of the uncapped budget. Approval to spend the priority budget can increase the learner enrolment total to 63% (19,476/30,872) of the uncapped budget as some of the priority budget has been reallocated to unemployed bursaries, internships and artisans. The capped targets have been inserted into the Annual Performance Plan. Services SETA annual performance plan 2015/16 64
