DEPARTMENT OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT AND LAND REFORM : 2013/14 ANNUAL PERFORMANCE PLAN Presentation to Portfolio Committee on Rural Development and Land Reform MP Shabane Director-General: Rural Development & Land Reform 9 April 2013

Presentation Overview • Purpose: To present the Department of Rural Development and Land Reform 2013/14 Annual Performance Plan and amendments to the 20112014 Strategic Plan to the Portfolio Committee on Rural Development and Land Reform • Key thrust of the APP: Contribution of the DRDLR in addressing the triple challenge currently facing South Africa namely, poverty, inequality and unemployment with specific bias to rural areas. It also takes into account the Department’s response to the National Development Plan (NDP) and the New Growth Path (NGP). • Integration of key documents: APP takes into consideration the DRDLR 2011 -2014 Strategic Plan, 2013/14 State of the Nation Address (SONA), NDP, NGP and the revised Outcome 7 Delivery Agreement. • Outcomes Approach: DRDLR remains the coordinator of Outcome 7 and contributes to Outcome 4, 6, 9 and 10. • Amendments to the 2011 - 2014 Strategic Plan (alignment purposes)

Introduction • We present this plan in year 2013 which marks the Centenary of the 1913 Natives Land Act. This plan, together with the Legislative programme that the Minister presented to the Leader of Government Business, contain several interventions that the Department will undertake, as a package of many measures government will implement, to contribute towards reversing the legacy of this law. • The development of this APP was guided by the National Development Plan as the main framework that will guide the implementation of government programmes such as the Comprehensive Rural Development Programme (CRDP) , the New Growth Path (NGP), specifically as it relates to the second job driver on agriculture, agroprocessing and rural development, the Outcomes Approach (particularly Outcome 7) and the Department of Rural Development and Land Reform’s 2011 – 2014 Strategic Plan.

Introduction (cont. ) • The APP is also informed by inputs from oversight Departments, i. e. National Treasury, Auditor-General of South Africa (AGSA) and the Department of Performance Monitoring & Evaluation (DPME). • The 1 st and 2 nd drafts of APP was submitted to National Treasury to ensure that the budget is aligned to the targets; to the Department of Performance Monitoring & Evaluation to ensure alignment with Outcome 7; and the Auditor-General for SMART review. • Feedback from the mentioned institutions was positive

Amendments to the 2011 -2014 Strategic Plan • In 2012/13 the Department reviewed its strategic objectives. The reviewed strategic objectives are reflected in the 2012/13 APP. • Audit findings have been raised in this regard- nonalignment between the Department’s plans has been cited in audit reports. • Amendments are therefore made to ensure alignment between the Department’s 2011 – 2014 Strategic Plan and the Department’s APPs.
