That is why more than sixty years ago the Freedom Charter, set out a vision of the police as ”… helpers and protectors of the people”. The National Development Plan (NDP) echoes a similar vision for our country’s police. I am on record as having said that the police must do all they can to protect our communities from criminals. There is no room for criminals in our society.Our country will once again choose a government that will run the country for the next five years. The priorities which will be core to that mandate will form part of our plans as government institutions. This goes for all our policing institutions, including the Independent Police Investigative Directorate (IPID). We also expect IPID to speed up its investigations to ensure that those who are under investigation are brought before the courts speedily and expeditiously. We will draw inspiration from the various authorities to inform our planning, from the governing party’s manifesto to government priorities as per the medium term strategic framework (MTSF) to cluster priorities etc. Citizens of our country will hold us to account based on the plans we have put in place. I trust that IPID will work hard to improve the quality of its investigations and recommendations. It is only by doing this that the efficiency of the criminal justice system will be reinforced. If we all do our work diligently, the dignity of our people will be restored. In my recent engagement with IPID management, I made it clear that we expect the IPID to investigate without fear, favour or prejudice. ___________________ GENERAL BH CELE MINISTER OF POLICE 1 a ?Si 00 Sr 0 MESSAGE FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR: W hen I was appointed as Acting Executive Director on 01 March 2019, I stated that the Independent Police Investigative Directorate (IPID) will not change its commitment to conduct independent and impartial investigations.  My appointment comes at a time when the IPID has made a name for itself as a formidable fighter against police criminality and corruption. This hard earned reputation will continue while I am holding the fort. This is because we all realise that the IPID plays a crucial role in the fight against corruption and other offences this role will not be diminished by the departure of the former ED. The IPID has a presence in all nine (9) provinces with a limited number of small District offices – some having been closed due to a limited budget and a heavy burden of accruals. I am pleased to announce that we have managed to clear all the accruals. We continue to face the challenge of reaching all complainants and crime scenes of alleged police criminality. Vast distances make it difficult to respond swiftly to crime scenes and investigations. In some provinces, it is near impossible to preserve the integrity of crime scenes due to the long distances travelled by IPID investigators to reach those crime scenes. As a result, investigators spend most of their time travelling rather than investigating. This situation affects the effectiveness of investigations negatively. Notwithstanding the aforesaid challenges, we are equal to the task and we will do our best to give the best service to our communities. We have made significant progress in this regard but we will not rest until we have achieved full implementation and our investigators receive what is due to them. This being an election year brings some uncertainty in regard to possible changes that may come with the new administration. Some priorities could change. Some could get a different emphasis. We will work with all our stakeholders to ensure that the work that was started in the past continues at full speed – that it is business as usual. We will continue to investigate cases and bring errant police officers to book. We will continue to arrest those who abuse their power and bring them before the courts. This we will do without any fear or favour. We do not expect our core mandate to change and this is reflected in our plans as set out in this document. As the IPID, we have aligned our programmes with the various strategic frameworks that guide our policy positions. One of the projects that has been on our table for some time and which we want to finalise swiftly is the full implementation of section 23 of the IPID Act, which would bring the salaries and benefits of our investigators on par with those of SAPS detectives. The entire IPID team is committed to live up to the high standards expected of us by South African citizens. __________________________ MR MR VO SENNA ACTING EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 3 Annual Performance Plan 2019/2020 OFFICIAL SIGN-OFF It is hereby certified that this Annual Performance Plan: Was developed by the management of the Independent Police Investigative Directorate under the guidance of the Executive Director, the Minister of Police and the Deputy Minister of Police. Takes into account all the relevant policies, legislation and other mandates for which the Independent Police Investigative Directorate is responsible. Accurately reflects the strategic outcome-oriented goals, objectives and targets that the Department will endeavor to achieve over the period 2015-2020. MR P SETSHEDI ACTING CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER Signature: _______________________ MS S LETLAPE OFFICIAL RESPONSIBLE FOR PLANNING Signature: _______________________ MR VO SENNA ACTING ACCOUNTING OFFICER Signature: ________________________ Approved by: GENERAL BH CELE, MP EXECUTIVE AUTHORITY Signature: _______________________ 28 March 2019 4 Independent Police Investigative Directorate PART A: STRATEGIC OVERVIEW an? xv Annual Performance Plan 2019/2020 Vision Section 28 (1) of the Act: An effective independent investigative oversight body that ensures policing that is committed to promoting respect for the rule of law and human dignity. (a) Any death in police custody (b) Deaths as a result of police actions; (c) Complaints relating to the discharge of an official firearm by any police officer; (d) Rape by a police officer, whether the police officer is on or off duty; (e) Rape of any person in police custody; (f) Any complaint of torture or assault against a police officer in the execution of his or her duties; (g) Corruption matters within the police initiated by the Executive Director, or after a complaint from a member of the public or referred to the Department by the Minister, MEC or the Secretary for the Police Service; (h) Any other matter referred to the IPID as a result of a decision by the Executive Director or if so requested by the Minister, an MEC or the Secretary for the Police Service as the case may be. Mission To conduct independent, impartial and quality investigations of identified criminal offences allegedly committed by members of the South African Police Services (SAPS) and Metro Police Services (MPS), and to make appropriate recommendations in line with the IPID Act, whilst maintaining the highest standard of integrity and excellence. Values The IPID adheres to the highest standards of ethical behaviour through the continuous application of our values. The following values are the core from which we operate and respond: ------- Section 28 (2), the Department may investigate matters relating to systemic corruption involving the police. Independence and impartiality Mutual respect and trust Integrity and honesty Transparency and openness Equity and fairness Courtesy and commitment Section 33(3), any police officer who fails to comply with section 29 is guilty of an offence and liable on conviction to a fine or to imprisonment for a period not exceeding two years. Other Mandates The vision 2030 of the National Development Plan (NDP) chapter 12: building safer communities; is that people living in South Africa feel safe and have no fear of crime. The core mandate of the IPID contributes towards the realization of Outcome 3 as outlined in the Medium Term Strategic Framework (MTSF) 20142019, namely: “All people in South Africa are and feel safe”. Strategic-Outcome-Oriented Goals The Department’s four (4) strategic-outcome-oriented goals are: -- The IPID is an effective independent oversight body -- The IPID investigates cases effectively and efficiently -- The police service is responsive to IPID recommendations -- The IPID is accessible to the public The IPID contributes to the achievement of NDP priorities by conducting independent and impartial investigations into allegations of criminality against members of the SAPS and MPS. Thereafter, refer departmental and/or policy recommendations to the Minister of Police; and refer criminal dockets to the National Prosecuting Authority for decision on whether to prosecute or not. Constitutional Mandate Section 206(6) of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa makes provision for the establishment of an independent police complaints body and stipulates that “On receipt of a complaint lodged by a provincial executive, an independent police complaints body established by national legislation must investigate any alleged misconduct of, or offence committed by, a member of the police services in the province.” Legislative Mandates The Independent Police Investigative Directorate (IPID) Act No. 1 of 2011 gives effect to the provision of section 206(6) of the Constitution, ensuring independent oversight of the SAPS and MPS. The IPID resides under the Ministry of Police and functions independently of the SAPS. The IPID Act empowers the Department to investigate offences listed hereunder, allegedly committed by the SAPS and the MPS members. 6 Independent Police Investigative Directorate 1. UPDATED SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS Taking into consideration the available human resources, financial resources and working tools, the Department will mainly focus on investigation of serious and priority crimes which include corruption, systemic corruption, death as a result of police action, death in police custody, rape by a police officer, rape in police custody and torture. The table below depicts a breakdown of case workload which includes cases registered in the new financial year and active cases carried over from the previous financial year/s (backlog). The workload for the 2018/2019 financial year increased by 20%. This may also lead to a higher workload in the new financial year, as all active cases will have to be carried over. The IPID management convened two departmental strategic review sessions to deliberate on the department’s strategic direction, review past and current performance to ensure alignment between resources and targets. These sessions were attended by senior management from both provincial and head office. An environmental scan was also conducted through SWOT analytical tool to identify key external and internal factors that should be taken into consideration when planning for the next Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) period. The Department will endeavour to remain sustainable as a result of the identified strengths and opportunities. 1.1. Financial year Performance Delivery Environment The 2018 Budget Review announced large-scale expenditure reprioritisation and tax increases, notably a one percentage point increase in the VAT rate. Over the medium-term expenditure framework (MTEF) period, government will maintain the main budget expenditure ceiling. Funds will be re-prioritised to manage spending pressures and support the President’s economic stimulus and recovery plan.1 Since the inception of the Independent Police Investigative Directorate, the allocated budget has not been able to meet the demand to enable effective execution of its legislative mandate and operational independence. The constrained government’s fiscus has also had an adverse impact to the Department’s budget allocation. In the previous financial years, the Department experienced extensive budget cuts. 2014/2015 10 657 2015/2016 10 695 2016/2017 9 513 2017/2018 9 097 2018/2019 Table 1: Total Workload In the 2018/19-2020/21 the Department had prioritised partial implementation of IPID Act section 23 which expresses remuneration and benefits of investigators. The inability of the Department to fully implement IPID Act section 23 was met with dissatisfaction by investigators which is also affecting their morale. During the current MTEF period the management will endeavor to conclude all necessary discussions and agreements with the relevant stakeholder to ensure full implementation of IPID Act section 23. Due to constrained financial resources the Department was unable to provide a conducive working environment for the investigators who are responsible for driving the Department’s core mandate. The dilapidated Information and Communication Technology (ICT) infrastructure affected the effectiveness of the Case Management System which is used to process cases and record keeping of investigation case files. The four (04) activities listed below are at the core of the constitutional and legislative mandate of the Department and are critical for the department’s effectiveness, regrettably they are still not funded: Furthermore; working tools such as vehicles, investigation equipment and computers were inadequate to enable effective and efficient investigation of cases. All these put a strain on investigators, compelling them to work overtime and not being able to take adequate leave days in an effort to improve performance. Although some work commenced in the 2018/2019 financial year, management has prioritised improvement of the working environment over the MTEF period. --- -- -Republic of South Africa. National Treasury, Medium Term Budget Policy Statement 2018. Available on http:www.treasury.gov.za/documents/ mtbps/2018/,mtbps/fullMTBPS.pdf accessed on 28 November 2018 11 955 The reliance on other Institutions for technical assistance is one of the contributing factors to backlog cases. The delay in obtaining technical reports affects completion of cases. Although investigation is concluded, a technical report is required in order to complete a case. It is in this regard that management has commenced with the review of the IPID Expansion Strategy to ensure alignment to emerging needs and the operational environment. The Strategy had previous received support from all relevant stakeholders, yet could not be funded. The management will continue to advocate for its funding. As a result, its resources were extremely constrained affecting its operations. These constrained fiscal envelope, gave rise to accruals amounting to R5.3 million in 2014/15, R6.9 million in 2015/16, R27.8 million in 2016/17 and R20.5 million in 2018/2019; which are mainly attributed to contractual obligations and travelling expenditure when conducting investigations. However; management has put measures in place to reduce the amount of accruals over the MTEF period. 1. Total case workload 7 Full implementation of amended IPID Act, including section 23 Full implementation of the IPID Expansion Strategy which is intended to accommodate the demand place on IPID for additional regional and district offices. Full implementation of the Farlam Commission Report recommendation which addressed the operational independence of IPID from SAPS Full implementation of ICT Strategy Annual Performance Plan 2019/2020 The intended outcome about the existence of IPID is that public confidence in the criminal justice system will be restored, specifically SAPS and MPS. Also that human dignity be restored and that the rule of law be upheld. IPID is at the forefront of fighting against corruption. Inadequate resources compromise the effectiveness of the IPID in executing its constitutional and legislative mandate; and realisation of the NDP vision, “people living in South Africa feel safe and have no fear of crime”. 1.2. The total number of investigators is 191 with 171 on level 7-11 and a total of 20 on SMS level. The capacity is not adequate considering the increasing demand for IPID services. The capacity needs for investigation personnel and the required support staff are adequately addressed in the proposed Expansion Strategy. The Department has been experiencing a high turnover rate particularly at entry salary levels, junior and middle management due to salary levels that are lower as compared to other government departments. The lack of succession planning, nonimplementation of Retention Strategy, high workload and nonimplementation of IPID Act Section 23 were identified as some of the contributing factors to the staff turnover. However, the strategies listed below were adopted to address this challenge: Organisational Delivery Environment The IPID is committed to deliver on its legislative mandate with the purpose of contributing towards a police service that is trusted by the community and operates in line with the principles enshrined in the Constitution of South Africa. --- Service Delivery Model of IPID (Provincial and District Offices) The IPID structure consists of a National Office, nine (9) Provincial Offices and four (4) District Offices. The District offices were established to improve access to IPID services; but due to the dire financial situation of IPID, a strategic decision was taken to close District Offices. A total of five (05) District offices have since been closed; Eastern Cape, Northern Cape, Free State, Kwa-Zulu Natal and North West, respectively. This was done to re-direct budget from these satellite offices to fund pressures. However, IPID is engaging Thusong Centres to acquire office accommodation that is affordable to ensure accessibility of IPID services. --- Development and implementation of Upward Mobility Plan Internal advertisement of posts for level 5 to 12 to encourage internal promotion Implement strategic training interventions for management and support staff Implement special investigation training interventions for investigators Operational Independence of IPID The operational independence of IPID is hugely dependent on adequate resourcing of both financial and non-financial resources to effectively implement its mandate with independence as a core value. At the core is the need for IPID to have its own capacity to fully investigate cases including technical support, forensic and ballistic experts. However due to limited resources, the Department still relies on SAPS and other state organs for this expertise which may compromise integrity of investigation. Provincial Offices comprise of a Provincial Head, Deputy Provincial Head, investigators and administrative staff. However, this is not sufficient because the SAPS has 1 146 police stations2. The geographical location of some of IPID offices makes it difficult for ordinary citizens in rural or far-fetched areas to access its services. The closure of District offices has aggravated the situation. In addition, this geographical location necessitates extensive traveling for IPID investigators, thereby requiring and exhausting the greater part of the budget on travelling and accommodation. Human Resource Capacity During the establishment of the ICD, the Department of Public Service and Administration (DPSA) had conducted the human capacity assessment which had recommended a total of 535 personnel. In the 2016/17 the IPID’s staff establishment was reduced from 414 to 388 as a result of expenditure ceiling that was put on Compensation of Employees which led to freezing of posts. In the 2018/2019 financial year the organisation’s structure was reviewed and 27 additional posts were added by creating 24 new posts and unfreezing 3 unfunded existing posts. The staff establishment was therefore increased from 388 to 415 which is subject to concurrence by the Department of Public Service Administration (DPSA). These posts are aimed at strengthening internal controls to address majority of Auditor General of South Africa (AGSA) audit findings in different Components. 2.

In the watershed Constitutional Court judgement (McBride v Minister of Police and Another (CCT255/15) ZACC 30; 2016 (2) SACR 585 (CC); 2016 (11) BCLR 1398 (6 September 2016) the legislature was given 24 months to amend the IPID Act in order to cure the defects in the Act. The amendments were effected in line with the judgment that further reinforced IPID’s structural and operational independence. The amended IPID Bill has gone through the National Assembly processes and is currently before the National Council of Provinces (NCOP) for processing and finalisation. Tandem to this process, the National Assembly approached the Constitutional Court for extension of the 24-month period of amendment; however, there has not been a respond from the Constitutional Court. 3.

Relating Expenditure trends to Strategic Outcome- Oriented Goals period, the Department received 511 cases of corruption for investigation, of which 252 were decision ready by the end of 2017/18 and handed over to the South African Police Service and the National Prosecuting Authority for further processing. Based on historic performance the Department expects to have 180 decision ready cases over the medium-term. Chapter 12 of the National Development Plan calls for building safer communities in South Africa. This is given expression by Outcome 3 “all people in South Africa are and feel safe” of government’s 2014-2019 Medium-Term Strategic Framework. The work of the Independent Police Investigative Directorate is directly aligned with this Outcome as the Department seeks to ensure that all people in South Africa live safely in a society free of corruption, and with an independent and fair criminal justice system. Over the medium-term, the Department will focus on investigating serious and priority crimes outlined in section 28 of the Independent Police Investigative Directorate Act (2011), and providing the necessary tools of trade for investigators through the strategic reprioritisation of funds. Investigations of senior police officials are often met with resistance, including counter-litigation which increases the Department’s legal costs and places pressure on its operational capacity. Due to limited personnel capacity in the Legal and Investigation Advisory Services Programme, the Department makes use of private attorneys to assist with all litigation cases. In order to curb the use of private attorneys, the Department has gone out on a tender to appoint a Panel of Attorneys. The Department’s overall expenditure on legal services is expected to increase at an average annual rate of 2.1 per cent, from R5 million in 2018/19 to R5.3 million in 2021/22 due to the volume of cases being investigated. Due to the nature of IPID’s business which is labour intensive, Compensation of Employees (CoE) is the Department’s largest cost driver, accounting for a projected 67.2 per cent (R935.3 million) of its total budget over the MTEF period. Spending on CoE is expected to increase at an average annual rate of 10 per cent, from R197.4 million in 2018/19 to R262.6 million in 2021/22. This increase is due to cost of living adjustments and the filling of 11 funded vacant posts for investigators by the end of 2018/19. In 2017/18, deaths in police custody and as a result of police action constituted 11.3 per cent (637 out of 5 651) of the total number of cases reported to the Department. Of these, 275 were decision ready and forwarded to the National Prosecuting Authority and the South African Police Service for further processing. Over the medium term, the Department plans to ensure that at least 450 cases of deaths while in police custody and 390 cases of deaths as a result of police action are decision ready. To achieve these targets, the Department will strengthen its investigative capacity by filling all 11 vacant funded investigator positions in the Investigation and Information Management programme by the end of the first quarter of 2019/20 financial year, resulting in an increase of 9.3 per cent (R588.5 million) in spending on compensation of employees in the programme over the MTEF period. Investigating serious and priority crimes Serious and priority crimes include, but are not limited to, corruption, systemic corruption, death as a result of police action, death while in police custody, rape by a police officer whether on or off duty, and rape while in police custody. The need for improved oversight by the Department on the South African Police Service was underscored by the increase in cases of corruption reported to the directorate between 2015/16 and 2017/18. During this 10 Independent Police Investigative Directorate Providing the necessary tools of trade Over the MTEF period, the Department will continue to strengthen its capacity to investigate cases of serious and priority crimes allegedly committed by members of the police service. To this end, the Department will ensure that investigators have the necessary tools of trade to effectively perform their duties by procuring investigative and transport equipment. This will enable the procurement of 30 vehicles and investigation equipment (specialised cameras and recording equipment) over the medium term. Procuring vehicles rather than renting them is expected to result in cost efficiencies on fuel and maintenance, and yield projected savings of R2.9 million over the MTEF period. The reprioritised funds are derived from closing down five satellite offices in Eastern Cape, Northern Cape, Free State, KwaZulu-Natal and North West; as the Department could no longer sustain their operational costs. A total of 15 personnel who were located in these offices were redeployed to the respective provincial offices. As such, performance targets for all cases related to investigation remain constant over the medium term. In this regard, the Department has reprioritised R7.6 million over the MTEF period from spending on travel and subsistence, and other machinery and equipment in Programme 1: Administration to spending on minor assets and transport equipment in Programme 2: Investigation and Information Management. 11 Annual Performance Plan 2019/2020 PART B: PROGRAMMES & SUB-PROGRAMME PLANS 12 Independent Police Investigative Directorate To effectively and efficiently deliver on our mandate, our activities and priorities are organized according to the following budget programmes: policies based on Minimum Information Security Standards, Minimum Physical Security Standards and the Occupational Health and Safety Act. 4.1.2.

Relating expenditure trends to Strategic Outcome-Oriented Goals and Performance Indicators The Department will continue to utilise the additional allocation received from SAPS for strengthening of the internal control systems in an effort to achieve a clean audit opinion by 2021/22 financial year as part of strengthening the accountability. The Department will over medium term utilise R5 million per annum from the additional SAPS allocation to implement the ICT Infrastructure Plan to enable safe keeping of information as well as recovery of information systems from unforeseen disasters. The implementation will include an external hot recovery site, backup & storage facilities and email archiving solution. The ICT security systems that will also enhance IPID’s information security include modern firewalls, intrusion detection & prevention systems, and encryption of mobile devices was also highlighted as the weakness that requires an urgent attention. The implementation plan will cover the infrastructure revamp and upgrades which includes an enhancement of the information security systems and disaster recovery. Business enabling platforms such as Microsoft SharePoint and Exchange are also part of ICT Plan. 16 Independent Police Investigative Directorate 5.

Relating expenditure trends to Strategic Outcome-Oriented Goals and Performance Indicators Over the medium term, CoE and travel and subsistence will remain the biggest cost drivers in Programme 2: Investigation and Information Management, constituting 71% and 4% of the total budget respectively. Spending on CoE will increase from R126.0 million in 2018/19 to R164.5 million in 2021/22, an average of 10% mainly to provide for inflationary adjustments. In 2017/18, deaths in police custody and as a result of police action constituted 11.3 per cent (637 out of 5 651) of the total number of cases reported to the Department. Of these, 275 were decision ready and forwarded to the National Prosecuting Authority and the South African Police Service for further processing. Over the medium term, the Department plans to ensure that at least 450 cases of deaths while in police custody and 390 cases of deaths as a result of police action are decision ready. The Department has reprioritised a total of R1.2 million over the medium term from closed satellite offices` operational costs to minor assets in order to provide for the strategic procurement of investigative equipment for investigators. The investigative equipment to be procured includes specialised cameras, protective clothing, recording equipment and firearms. In addition, the Department intends to procure its own fleet of vehicles for investigators and has reprioritised R7 million over the medium term for this purpose. The investigators are currently making use of rental vehicles from G-fleet, which on average have costed R3.3 million per annum between 2015/16 and 2017/18. The procurement of vehicles for investigators will lead to a cost reduction of R2.3 million per annum over the medium term. The procurement of specialised investigative equipment and vehicles is not expected to improve performance in the short term hence the indicator targets remain constant over the medium term. However, it is expected that the procurement of vehicles will result in reduced cost for the rental of G-fleet vehicles as the Department will have its own vehicles, and that the investigators will be able to effectively execute investigations which will thus have a positive impact on performance in future. 6.

Relating expenditure trends to Strategic Outcome-Oriented Goals and Performance Indicators Investigations of senior police officials are often met with resistance, including counter-litigation, which increases the directorate’s legal costs and places pressure on its operational capacity. Due to limited personnel capacity in the Legal and Investigation Advisory Services Programme, the Department makes use of private attorneys to assist with all litigation cases. In order to curb the use of private attorneys, the Department has gone out on a tender to appoint a Panel of Attorneys. As a result, and due to the volume of cases being investigated, the Department’s overall expenditure on legal services in the Investigation and Information Management programme is expected to increase at an average annual rate of 2.1 per cent, from R5 million in 2018/19 to R5.3 million in 2021/22. 24 Independent Police Investigative Directorate 7. PROGRAMME 4: COMPLIANCE MONITORING AND STAKEHOLDER MANAGEMENT 7.1. Purpose Safeguard the principles of cooperative governance and stakeholder relations.

Relating expenditure trends to Strategic Outcome-Oriented Goals and Performance Indicators The performance targets for community outreach indicator have been reduced over medium term due to capacity constraints. The Provincial offices are utilising investigators to conduct outreach campaigns which affects their core mandate, which is investigation of allocated cases. The Department will continue to conduct the planned community outreach events within the allocated resources. The fiscal position of the Department makes it difficult to carry out aggressive communications and stakeholder activities hence the reduction of the target. The Department will over the medium term establish and use other effective means of communication such as community radio stations and local newspapers to reach the members of community. The average expenditure in travel and subsistence is expected to grow by 8.1% over the MTEF period. 27 Annual Performance Plan 2019/2020 PART C: LINKS TO OTHER PLANS The Department does not have major infrastructure plans, does not administer conditional grants nor has public entities and public private partnerships. 28 Independent Police Investigative Directorate PART D: TECHNICAL INDICATOR DESCRIPTION TABLE Please refer to IPID’s website (www.ipid.gov.za) for full definitions of all strategic indicators and programme performance indicators. 29 Annual Performance Plan 2019/2020 LIST OF ACRONYMS ConCourt Constitutional Court CoE Compensation of Employees CSPS Civilian Secretariat for Police Service DPSA Department of Public Service Administration GIAMA Government Immoveable Asset Management Act ICT Information Communication Technology IPID Independent Police Investigative Directorate MISS Minimum Information Security Standards MOU Memorandum of Understanding MPS Municipal Police Service MTBPS Medium Term Budget Policy Statement MTEF Medium Term Expenditure Framework MTSF Medium Term Strategic Framework NDP National Development Plan NSIT National Specialised Investigations Team NT National Treasury PAIA Promotion of Access to Information Act PAMA Public Administration Management Act PFMA Public Finance Management Act PPPFA Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act PSA Public Service Act PSR Public Service Regulations SAPS South African Police Service SCM Supply Chain Management 30 Independent Police Investigative Directorate "o a A- ANNEXURE A: ADJUSTMENTS TO STRATEGIC PLAN (2015-2020) "f . . av 15705 Annual Performance Plan 2019/2020 ANNEXURE A: ADJUSTMENTS TO IPID’S STRATEGIC PLAN (2015-2020) The Framework for Strategic and Annual Performance Plans (2012) provides that “A Strategic Plan may be changed during the five-year period that it covers. However, such changes should be limited to revisions related to significant policy shifts or changes in the service delivery environment. The relevant institution does this by issuing an amendment to the existing plan, which may be published as an Annexure to the Annual Performance Plan, or by issuing a revised Strategic Plan”. Further, the Framework further requires departments to set SMART strategic objectives that reflect the high level outputs the department would like to produce in order to achieve its outcomeoriented goals and vision. In view of the above, the Department has made adjustments to some of its strategic objectives, strategic indicators and strategic targets. A summary of the adjustments from the 2016/17 to 2019/2020 financial year is presented as follows: ADJUSTMENTS TO THE STRATEGIC PLAN Old Strategic Objective Changes Strategic Indicator Strategic Target Strategic Objective Strategic Indicator Strategic Justification for Adjustments Target Programme 1: Administration Capacity building is undertaken Vacancy rate per year <10% A capable workforce6 Number of strategic training areas undertaken as per IPID’s Training Plan7 7 The ultimate outcome of undertaking capacity building is to ensure that IPID has a capable workforce that is able to deliver on its mandate. The objective will be achieved by capacitating IPID employees through a themed strategic approach to training. Departmental Performance Management System operates optimally Number of performance reports produced 9 - - - Discontinued Effective risk management Improved risk level of risk maturity Level 5 The indicator for this strategic objective was not SMART enough and target was the production of performance report which was not adequate to assess whether the Department is achieving its strategic objective. Based on AG’s repeat findings as well as the recommendations of the Portfolio Committee on Police, management took a decision to replace this strategic objective with the one that aims to improve the risk maturity level of the department. - - - Discontinued Based on management deliberations and performance dialogue with the Department Planning, Monitoring and Evaluation it was agree that the strategic objective was more operational. 32 Independent Police Investigative Directorate ADJUSTMENTS TO THE STRATEGIC PLAN Old Strategic Objective A capable workforce Changes Strategic Indicator Strategic Target Number of 21 strategic training areas undertaken as per IPID’s Training Plan Strategic Objective Strategic Indicator Strategic Justification for Adjustments Target - - 28 The target was reviewed to incorporate the annual target of the last year of the MTSF fiveyear period. Number of employees trained as per the Specialised Investigation Training Plan 325 Investigations are the core business of the Department. Based on the trend analysis as well as recommendations emanating from various reports (external and internal) for the need for IPID to improve on its performance regarding its core business, it becomes necessary for IPID to prioritise and strengthen its investigative capacity.

Based on management discussion it became evident that the Department must prioritise its approach and mechanisms to fulfilling the above-mentioned sections of the Act as they have a bearing on IPID’s overall performance. It is in this regard that the implementation of an integrated strategy on stakeholder engagement and communication has been prioritised in order to assist the IPID to improve on its performance. 34 Independent Police Investigative Directorate 1" *4 ?570$ ANNEXURE B: UPDATED STRATEGIC RISK REGISTER FOR 2019/2020) ii, ?5 Scene Vehicle Annual Performance Plan 2019/2020 ANNEXURE B: UPDATED STRATEGIC RISK REGISTER FOR 2019/2020 Risk Title 1.
