Laying The Foundation For Greatness
Annual Performance Plan 2019|2020
The term of the fifth democratic administration as well as the
term of the fifth democratic Parliament is coming to an end. It
is prudent that the two arms of the democratic state reflect on
the work done over the last 25 years to improve the lives of our
people; to ask ourselves hard questions like have we conducted
ourselves in a manner that enhances the contract we have
with the people? The success or failure of the nation-building
project depends on how we, the public representatives, conduct
ourselves in relation to this contract.
Even at this late hour we are still dealing with deep-seated
legacies of apartheid colonialism, yet despite the challenges of
the day and the setbacks of the moment we are making steady
progress.
Radical economic transformation is a necessary requirement
to turn the situation around. It will contribute immensely to
ensuring the future political and social stability of our country.
While persuing these constitutional injunctions we should be
aware that we are operating in a global environment that is
not very keen to assist the developing world to realise these
objectives of a better life for all.
In the space of arts, culture and heritage, we have tabled a revised
White Paper that carries forward the gains of the preceding two
decades and addresses the challenges of inequality, poverty,
unemployment and persistent divisions based on race, gender
and other factors of exclusion. The intention is to contribute
effectively to building a cohesive and united society in which
everyone has access to arts, culture and heritage resources,
facilities and opportunities, framed by the following objectives:
Firstly, to align the revised White Paper on Arts, Culture and
Heritage with the Department’s core mandate of providing arts,
culture and heritage services, facilities, funds and resources
to address poverty and job creation, and to promote nation
building and social cohesion.
Secondly, to base the revised White Paper on the fundamental
right to culture, artistic creativity, language, and intellectual
and artistic freedom as enshrined in the Bill of Rights in the
Constitution of the Republic of South Africa (1996), the National
Development Plan: Vision for 2030 (2011), the African Charter
on Human and Peoples’ Rights (1981), the Charter for African
Cultural Renaissance (2006), the Unesco Declaration on
Cultural Diversity (2001), the Convention for the Safeguarding
of Intangible Cultural Heritage (2003),the Convention on the
Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions
(2005), and the African Union’s Agenda 2063 (2014).

Thirdly, to harness arts, culture and heritage as creative, innovative, educational and social
development practices with the economic capacity for transforming South Africa into an inclusive
society based on actual equality.
Fourthly, to reconfigure the existing Arts, Culture and Heritage Sector and the policies
underpinning it to eliminate duplication and overlaps for the optimal performance of the Sector
in relation to current social, educational and economic policies.
The National Development Plan (NDP) also envisions a South African society that embraces its
diversity rather than emphasising observable differences along the contours of race, class, gender,
religion, culture and other social constructs.
In all our work, we should be aware that South Africa’s efforts at fundamental change represent a
social experiment that resonates with humanity’s progressive endeavours. As in the past when it
touched the conscience of humanity, South Africa is a giant social laboratory, the success or failure
of whose undertakings has global implications.

Laying The Foundation For Greatness
Annual Performance Plan 2019|2020
In preparation for the new administration of the next five years
(2019–2024), the Department’s performance plans will be informed
by the all-encompassing and daunting question of the State of the
Nation Address (SONA) 2019:
“As South Africans, we will have to ask ourselves whether we have
realised the promise of our nation’s birth. We must spend this year,
the 25th anniversary of our freedom, asking ourselves whether we
have built a society in which all South Africans equally and without
exception enjoy their inalienable rights to life, dignity and liberty.
(HE President Cyril Ramaphosa)
The SONA 2019’s main message is that building a better nation
requires a social compact between all citizens, sectors, roleplayers
and stakeholders of this great nation, South Africa. There can be no
reigniting of growth and job creation without restoring the bond
of trust, dialogue and cooperation.
It is with this in mind that Cabinet deemed it important to approve
the cabinet memorandum that seeks to provide a legislative, policy
and implementation framework for social cohesion and nation
building in South Africa.
With this Cabinet approval, our Department will, first and foremost,
be able to mainstream all nation-building indicators in all medium-
term strategic frameworks. This means our social partners at local
government levels will be able to address the cultural, spatial and
economic challenges that resulted from the spatial structure being
designed to keep public spaces in only a few hands.
Over the 2019 MTEF, the Department will develop and position
community arts centres, equally spread across the nine provinces,
to ensure that the masses of our people have easy access to these
platforms of arts, culture and heritage education. This will ensure
that large numbers of young aspiring artists are not stifled or
confined to the margins of access and opportunity.
In line with the Presidential Commission on the 4th Industrial
Revolution appointed by the President, as mentioned in SONA
2019, the Department has already started the process of migrating
to digital or electronic systems with the adoption of the Barn Owl
system as the central repository of performance information. Digital
technology will also assist in delivering integrated,automated
services for artists.
Through the library conditional grant the Department will
continue to build and upgrade libraries, purchase relevant books,
and improve information and communication technology. The
modernising of library services will also seek to appeal to youth
who are technically skilled, and further ensure the transformation
of collections and archiving infrastructure, and the promotion of a
reading and a writing nation.
The Pan African vision of the Department is a welcome initiative,
where when talking about identity, we will not just be looking at
South African identity, but also an African identity.
Through the Schools Programme, the Department will continue
to hoist the South African and the African Union flags side-by-
side, and to sing the AU anthem together with the South African
national anthem, to point to our commitment to the continent and

the expression of an African identity and pride. By 2024, all schools will also be teaching correct
South African heritage and history through the Arts Education Programme, in partnership with
the Department of Basic Education.
To ensure that all the Department’s assets and infrastructure, such as libraries, monuments,
graves, arts centres, etc., are always viewed as essential resources rather than as targets of
destruction during community service-delivery protests, the Department will allocate R11
million for adequate marketing. Further, it will intensify its visibility through increased marketing,
branding and media campaigns.
Trust, and not tyranny, among citizens is necessary to construct, and not destruct, the long-term
compacts required to deal with the underlying causes of inequality and exclusion. As the SONA
2019 core message said:
Ms Magdeline Sotyu (MP)Deputy Minister of Arts and Culture
“This task – of building a better South Africa – is our collective task as a nation, as the people of
South Africa.”

Laying The Foundation For Greatness
Annual Performance Plan 2019|2020
As we plan for the 2019/20 financial year, it is fitting for us to reflect
on the work the Department has done over the past years and
outline the plans for the year ahead.
In 2014 social cohesion was given prominence after the realisation
by government that there were still visible divisions within South-
African society. Outcome 14 was thus introduced, which focuses
on social cohesion and nation building. This Outcome envisions a
South Africa that:
• Hasbroad-basedknowledgeaboutandsupportforaset
of values shared by all South Africans, including the
values contained in the Constitution
• Promotesaninclusivesocietyandeconomy.Thismeans
tackling the factors that sustain inequality of
opportunity and outcomes by building capabilities,
removing participation barriers and redressing the
wrongs of the past
• EncouragesincreasedinteractionbetweenSouth
Africans from different social backgrounds and racial
groups
• Hasstrongleadershipacrosssociety,withanactiveand
responsible citizenry
The Department is responsible for coordination, supporting,
monitoring and reporting on this Outcome.
In working towards the realisation of a South Africa with shared
values, the Department has implemented programmes that
contribute to fostering constitutional values through the
promotion of the national symbols, mainly the flag and the
national anthem. These two symbols seek to unify all of us as a
nation. We are confident that over 80% of our schools have the flag
infrastructure and are flying the flag; the majority of South Africans
also have a sense of pride about the national anthem.
In2018,welaunchedthe#IAMTHEFLAGcampaign;aprogramme
aimed at steering national pride and identity. The Flag is the
primary national symbol embedded in our Constitution. It is an
embodiment of how South Africa has evolved over time, from
divergence to convergence, from division to unity, and it is the
embodiment and epitome of the post-1994 value system that
characterises our democratic state. The Department will be
implementing an important project of installing the biggest and
tallest flag in the Republic of South Africa. The Iconic Big Flag
Projectwilladvanceourexpressionofpride,andthecelebrationof
our identity as a nation, our achievements as well as our aspirations.
It will serve as a rallying point in times of prosperity and diversity.
One of the key elements of social cohesion and nation building
is equal opportunities, inclusion and redress. DAC has done
positive work towards transformation of the heritage landscape
and championing the cause of geographical name changes,and
building new heritage infrastructure and symbols.

Department of Arts and Culture
Annual Performance Plan 2019|2020
In 2015, a task team was appointed to listen to concerns of the people and subsequently come
up with recommendations and an action plan for the transformation of the country’s heritage
landscape to being more representative of the history and heritage of the country as a whole, and
not telling only one side of the history.
The task team’s recommendations included the use of prominent spaces for monuments and
memorials that are aligned to our constitutional values of equality, the advancement of human
rights and freedom, non-racialism, non-sexism, social justice and respect, and that those symbols
that do not conform to these values be relocated to theme parks. It was also suggested that an
audit of all monuments and memorials be done to identify offensive memorials that are not
representative of the values espoused in the Constitution and are divisive. In response to the
recommendations, the Department will conduct the audit in the 2019/20 financial year.
The South African National Chapter of the African Liberation Heritage Programme, called the
Resistance and Liberation Heritage Route (RLHR) Project, was presented to Cabinet in June 2011
and again in August 2015. The Department worked tirelessly to position the RLHR in the national
consciousness. Each province has now identified three sites for the first phase of the project.
The Department is conducting a feasibility study for the establishment of liberation movements
museum. The museum will be a prominent feature of the country’s heritage landscape, showcasing
the resistance and liberation struggle; it should draw the attention and capture the interest and
imagination of the people of South Africa, the continent and the rest of the world, and be a place
of pilgrimage, a place of deep reflection and contemplation about our painful past. At the same
time, it should inspire us to continue to spare no effort to pursue a peaceful, prosperous non-racial
South–Africa that will never again be a pariah of the world.
Together with the National Library of South Africa we are working towards the establishment
of a national publishing house. Combined with the provision of library infrastructure through
the Library Services Conditional Grant, this project will go a long way in promoting a culture of
reading and writing.
The main objectives of the National Archives and Records Service of South Africa (NARSSA) is
to ensure proper management and care of the national memory, including the records of
governmental bodies, the preservation of archival heritage for posterity,and the provision of
access to the archival records.
NARSSA is essential not only for research and knowledge production for academic and intellectual
development, but also for good governance and the development of the country. The fifth
administration undertook a number of initiatives to promote the role of the archives and records.
This is evident in the work done to drive the digitisation project of the Rivonia Trial Dictabelt
Collection with the French Audio-Visual Institute (INA). Dictabelt technology was used in the
1950s and 1960s to record trials in courts of law. The inability to recover information that was
recorded through this technology would have obliterated this information from the annals of
history. There is therefore a need to digitise them for preservation and access.
In order to ensure that the memory of the nation in not at risk of being lost, the Department will
initiate construction of the new state-of-the-art National Archives, while supporting provinces in
maintaining their archives and ensuring that their records remain functional and in a good state.
The National Treasury has allocated funds in the 2019/2022 MTEF for renovation work on the
existing NARSSA Building. Renovations will ensure that all records are stored in various formats.
One of the key challenges facing the Department for years has been constant underspending
on infrastructure projects, ballooning costs and the unauthorised expansion of scope of work.
This has sometimes resulted in endless, costly litigation and incomplete projects. This financial
year, we will strengthen this area through the establishment of a project management office and
appoint people with technical expertise in the built environment.
Our Cultural Diplomacy Programme remains the cornerstone for export and development of
our arts, culture and heritage through the use of strategic partnerships with foreign countries,
including our BRICS partners. These will enable greater market access and sharing of best
practices,and will be done through the cultural seasons programme and cultural exchanges.
Through its research arm, the South African Cultural Observatory (SACO), the Department has
conducted research on a number of issues, including the transformation of the Film Industry. The
study highlighted the potential of the industry to grow and become a tool that would define the
South African identity. In addition, animation is emerging as a major focal area given its intensive
use of technology and the digital element. There is also a need to create job opportunities for
women, youth and people with disabilities and for them to participate in the value chain.

Working with the DTI, the Department contributed to the amendment of the Copyright Bill, which
has since been passed by Parliament. The Department will embark on an awareness programme
to inform the sector of the importance and benefits of intellectual property and copyright.
To respond to the realities of the fourth industrial revolution, the Department will continue with its
modernisation programme. We have commenced with the development of a grant management
system for the MGE programme. This will enable people to apply online (desktop/mobile) and
for the Department’s back-end officers to manage the application process up to implementation
stage. In the medium to long term the track-and-trace system will also link with other funding
agencies, so that the work of government is aligned and coordinated. We will also set up a call
centre to enhance our responsiveness and ensure that the Department responds more quickly
to proposals and requests for funding while also addressing queries and complaints from our
stakeholders. Both these initiatives are being developed and piloted and will be rolled out fully in
2019/20.
In recent years, the Department has experienced budget cuts due to competing priorities. This has
had an impact on how we distribute or redirect limited resources, including levelling the playing
fields. We will implement a new funding regime in the coming financial year.
The focus will be on areas that have received little or no funding in the past, while the funding
of organisations that have been funded year after year will be reduced. The plan is to focus on
projects and programmes that have a national imperative and impact. We will work in earnest to
encourage provinces and local government to fund programmes that benefit local communities.
We will continue to fight fraud and corruption, strengthen governance, monitor and provide
support to ensure stability of the Department and our entities.
Transformation of the sector remains key on our agenda and we will start the process of
implementing the recommendations of the revised White Paper.

THE NATIONAL Coat of Arms
The National Coat of Arms is the highest symbol of the State. The Coat of Arms was launched on
Freedom Day, 27 April 2000. A central image of the Coat of Arms is the well known secretary bird
with its uplifted wings.
Symbolism of the Coat of Arms
Above the bird is the rising sun, a force that gives life while representing the flight of darkness and
the triumph of discovery, knowledge and understanding of things that have been hidden, and
illuminating the new life that is coming into being.
Below the bird is the protea, an indigenous flower of South Africa, which represents beauty, the
aesthetic harmony of all its cultures, and South Africa flowering as a nation. The ears of wheat
are emblems of the fertility of the land. The elephant tusks symbolise wisdom, steadfastness and
strength.
At the centre stands a shield, which signifies the protection of South Africans from one generation
to the next. Above it is a spear and a knobkierie. Together, they assert the defence of peace rather
than a posture of war. This shield of peace, which also brings to mind an African drum, conveys the
message of a people imbued with a love of culture.
Contained within the shield are some of the earliest representations of humanity in the world.
Those depicted were the very first inhabitants of the land, namely the Khoisan people.
These figures are derived from images on the Linton Stone, a world-famous example of South
African rock art.
The motto - !KE E: /XARRA //KE, written in the Khoisan language of the /Xam people, means
‘diverse people unite’.

The Order of Luthuli is awarded to South Africans who have made a
meaningful contribution to the struggle for democracy, human rights,
nation-building, justice, peace and conflict resolution. It symbolises the

NATIONAL Symbols
The National Flag of the Republic of South Africa was taken
into use on 27 April 1994.
The unique central design of the flag, which begins as a “V”
at the flag-post and comes together in the centre of the flag,
extending further as a single horizontal band to the outer
edge of the fly, can be seen as representing the convergence
of diverse elements in South African society, which then take
the road ahead in unison. This idea also links up with the motto
of the new National Coat of Arms, namely !ke e: /xarra //ke, in
the language of the /Xam San people, which literally means
“diverse people unite”.
The National Animal is the SPRINGBOK
(Antidorcas marsupialis). This species has adapted to the dry,
barren areas and open grass plains and is thus found especially
in the Free State and North West Province, and in the Karoo up
to the west coast. They move in small herds during winter, but
often crowd together in bigger herds in summer. They breed
throughout the year and lambs are born after a six-month
gestation period.
17
Department of Arts and Culture
Annual Performance Plan 2019|2020
The National Flower is the GIANT or KING PROTEA
(Protea cynaroides), found in the southwestern and southern
areas of the Western Cape, from the Cedarberg to just east of
Grahamstown. The artichoke-like appearance of the flower
heads of the king protea lead to the specific name ‘cynaroides’,
which means ‘like cynara’ (the artichoke). A number of varieties
in colour and leaf shapes are found, but the most beautiful is
the pink flower.
The National Tree is the REAL YELLOWWOOD
(Podocarpus latifolius), found from Table Mountain, along
the southern and eastern Cape coast, in the ravines of the
Drakensberg up to the Blouberg and the Soutpansberg in
Limpopo. The Yellowwood family is primeval and has been
present in this part of Africa for more than 100 million years.
The crown is relatively small in relation to its height and is
often covered with grey lichen.
The National Bird is the BLUE CRANE
(Anthropoides paradisia). It is quite common in the Karoo,
but is also seen in the grasslands of KwaZulu-Natal and the
Highveld, usually in pairs or small family parties. This elegant
bird is a light blue-grey in colour, with a long neck supporting
a big head, long legs and elegant wing plumes that sweep to
the ground. It eats seeds, insects and reptiles.
The National Fish is the GALJOEN
(Coracinus capensis), which is found only along the South African
coast. It keeps to mostly shallow water, is often found in rough surf and
sometimes right next to the shore. The Galjoen is a familiar sight for
anglers. Its diet consists mainly of red bait (ascidians), small mussels
and barnacles. It is also known in KwaZulu-Natal as blackfish or black
bream.

2. UPDATED SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS
The National Development Plan (NDP) envisions a South African society that embraces its diversity
rather than emphasising differences along the contours of race, class, gender, religion, culture and
other social constructs. In South Africa with its divisive past, while the social cohesion and nation
building initiative has been on the agenda of government for some time, events such as “fees
must fall”, service delivery protests, regular incidents of racism, and heightened levels of political
contestation point to the need for an upscaled focus on building a more participatory citizenry in
order to realise the ideal of an inclusive and thus a socially cohesive society.
The social cohesion programme needs to be geared towards overcoming the fractures and
divisions of the past in our communities and in society at large. Critical to the realisation of this
ideal are the ongoing sector engagements leading to the conclusion of the social compact which,
among other things, should outline the value systems and principles that define being South
African. Further, work needs to continue on foregrounding national symbols that are inclusive and
uniting, as well as other social cohesion programmes such as community conversations, the social
cohesion advocates initiative and the moral regeneration efforts. There is a need to engage the
young people of South Africa directly with the aim of promoting patriotism and shared values. The
celebration and commemoration of significant national days must continue to promote interracial
and intercultural gatherings that are central to social cohesion.
The economic potential of arts, culture and heritage (ACH) has not been explored or exploited
fully. The revision to the White Paper on Arts and Culture provides us with an opportunity to
reposition the sector as a major contributor to the socio-economic imperatives of government.
This entails entrenching the strategic value of ACH in society and dispelling the distorted notion
that the value of ACH is recreation or entertainment only. Further, the government’s radical socio-
economic transformation agenda needs to be embedded in the strategies, plans and programmes
of the Department. The Mzansi Golden Economy (MGE) strategy should assist in creating job
opportunities for previously disadvantaged ACH practitioners. Further, the mainstreaming of
the youth, women and people with disabilities into the mainstream of the economy should be
foregrounded in all our programmes.
26
Laying The Foundation For Greatness
Annual Performance Plan 2019|2020
The knowledge that resources are limited, however, forces us to direct our efforts to key priority
programmes that will yield immediate impact and further assist us to complete the programme
of action of the Fifth Administration. As such, our programme of action will be guided by the
following priorities:
A. Accelerating and amplifying nation building and social cohesion and
dealing with the challenges of racism, among other things
As the lead department for Outcome 14, the DAC is responsible for coordinating, supporting,
monitoring and reporting on progress against MTSF indicators and performance targets, with
contributions from 13 government departments and entities. In terms of the standing procedures
for the management of MTSF Outcomes, the Minister is obligated to table Outcome 14 quarterly
progress reports to Cabinet. Progress is being made to involve the provinces and entities in
coordinating, monitoring and reporting on the Outcome.
Through our programming the principles of inclusivity and integration will permeate all our
programmes and activities as espoused in outcome 14
i. Currently, the celebration or commemoration of national days continue to be attended
exclusively by a particular section of the population. The Department is thus challenged
with ensuring that there are inclusive celebrations and commemorations.
ii. The Department intends foregrounding national symbols that are inclusive and
uniting, and continue with community conversations, the social cohesion advocates
initiative, the moral regeneration efforts, and sector engagements leading to the
conclusion of the social compact.
B. Focusing on Africa and the global space
The Department will continue to prioritise Africa and BRICS in its Cultural Diplomacy programme,
including increased global and continental participation. The annual hosting of the Africa
Month and cultural seasons/weeks planned with other countries in the continent will provide
the focus point in the Africa programme over the next MTEF. Further, cultural diplomacy will be
consolidated in the Middle East through SA’s support for cultural weeks, the Annual Solidarity
Week with Palestine and the FISAHARA Festival in Western Sahara.
The Department will continue to maintain and strengthen its strategic cultural relations with
other parts of the world, including the Americas, Europe, Asia and the various United Nations
and other multilateral forums. The SA-China People-to-People Exchange Mechanism (PPEM)
had been agreed on by the two respective Presidents, and the DAC Minister is leading the SA
inter-ministerial component. The DAC Cultural Diplomacy programme will continue to be aligned
to the department’s domestic mandate and ensure benefits accrue to local artists and the sector.
C. The Infrastructure Programme, including the National Heroes’ Acre
Project and Resistance and the Liberation Heritage (RLH) Route
The overall infrastructure has been beset with challenges of lack of expertise, delays in service
delivery, cost escalations and failure to derive value for money. In a bid to resolve these challenges,
the Department will be establishing a Project Management Office, which will comprise of the
following skills and competencies:
• ProjectManagement
• Architecture
• Quantitysurveying
• Engineering
• ConstructionManagement
The Resistance and Liberation Heritage (RLH) Route narrative will be entrenched in our
programming. The narrative will go beyond the building of monuments, museums and memorials
to also permeate the performing arts through theatre productions, cinemas and television through
film production and documentaries, as well as museums and galleries through exhibitions and
displays.
D. Promotion of all official languages
Access to information is essential to the transformation agenda. The use of previously marginalized
languages will be given priority and should feature prominently in our knowledge production,
dissemination and sharing. To this end, the Department will:
27
Department of Arts and Culture
Annual Performance Plan 2019|2020
i. Continue to provide technical support in the setting up of active and operational
language units in all public institutions and departments
ii. Support language development through the creation of terminology in all the official
languages and investing in human language technologies (HLT) projects
iii. Promote access to information through the provision of a translation and editing
service in official and foreign languages
iv. Finalise the process of appointing and establishing the Board of PanSALB
E. Ensuring that Mzansi Golden Economy benefits previously disadvantaged
arts practitioners
The Department is responsible for the development and promotion of the creative industries,
including audience development and market access through the Mzansi Golden Economy (MGE)
programme. Our priority is to ensure that the opportunities of the MGE programme permeate
all sectors of society to create an enabling environment and/or provide opportunities for up-
and-coming arts, culture and heritage practitioners. To this end, efforts will be made to ensure
that MGE benefits the neediest of our communities in remote provinces, towns and villages. The
Department will also improve the communication mechanism so that those whose projects have
not been successful are provided with feedback.
Specific MGE projects that will be pursued over the 2019 MTEF include the incubation programme,
cultural observatory, the Venture Capital Fund, support for cultural events, touring ventures and
public arts.
F. The library and archives programme
The Department will continue the roll-out of the community library and archival programme
designed to preserve national memory and promote an informed, reading and writing nation.
Through the Library Conditional Grant, the DAC will continue to build and upgrade libraries,
purchase relevant books, and improve ICT connectivity. The modernising of library services
will seek to appeal to youth who are technically skilled, and further ensure the transformation
of collections and infrastructure. Equipment and capabilities to render services for the visually
impaired will also be prioritised.
As part of the Library Infrastructure Development programme, ongoing consultations and
awareness-raising initiatives will be pursued with communities to sensitize them about the value
and significance of the library infrastructure in their respective communities. This will ensure that
libraries are viewed as essential community assets rather than as targets of destruction during
community service delivery protests.
Further, efforts are underway to address the challenges facing the archives and repositories in
various spheres of government. The planning phase for a new state-of-the-art archival facility will
be initiated in the 2019 financial year and funds have been sourced from the current infrastructure
budget for this purpose. Running parallel with the aforesaid planning phase will be processes
geared at securing an archival conditional grant from National Treasury.
G. The Community Arts Programme
The Department will focus on supporting the development and implemenation of Provincial
Community Arts Programme with the aim of widening the scope of access to Arts, Culture
and Heritage Programmes as well as activities for communities and local artists. The Provnicial
Community Arts Development programme will deal with challenges of community Arts
Programming, training management and skills development, infrustructure development, and
strengthening relationship between the three spheres of government.
Over the 2019 MTEF, the community arts programme will entail:
i. The development of new CACs
ii. The refurbishment of existing CACs
iii. The provision of financial support for community arts activities.
28
Laying The Foundation For Greatness
Annual Performance Plan 2019|2020
H. Ensuring that the school curriculum teaches correct South African
heritage and history through the Arts Education Programme and DAC
Schools Programme
Through the Schools Programme, the Department will continue to deploy artists in schools as part
of inculcating arts, culture and heritage in the schooling system. Moreover, we will intensify the
campaign of promoting national symbols and constitutional values to foster a spirit of patriotism
and a sense of national identity. When talking about identity, we will be looking not just at South
African identity but also an African identity. The hoisting of the African Union (AU) flag side by
side with the South African flag, and the singing of the AU anthem together with the SA national
anthem are pointers to our commitment to the continent and the expression of African identity
and pride.
2.1 The Macro Environment
Political Analysis
There is a very strong political will and support for the ACH Sector and this augurs well for
successful implementation and achievement of the Department’s mandate. While internally the
Department enjoys strong political support, programmes relating to cultural diplomacy, exchange
and seasons may be vulnerable to political instability and changes in the countries we intend to
partner with in delivering these programmes.
Economic Analysis
The low economic growth in South Africa has had a huge impact on the budget allocation to the
DAC. As such, the ACH Sector will have to take a serious re-look at how the convergence between
entities and provinces can take place through aligned and optimized systems to do “more with
less”. New funding streams and models need to be explored to bring forth alternative revenue
streams to supplement the much-needed ACH Sector programmes. Key to this is the positioning
of the creative and cultural economies as one of the fastest growing industries, and this narrative
should be at the centre of the government strategy.
Social Analysis
The National Development Plan (NDP) envisions a South African society that embraces its diversity
rather than emphasising observable differences along the contours of race, class, gender, religion,
culture and other social constructs. The ACH Sector is gaining recognition within the wider
government spectrum and is seen as playing a critical role in social cohesion and transformation.
Success is this area of work would be enhanced if we first determined the root of social disparity
systems, including the fundamental aspects of societal ills that have played themselves out on
different platforms.
Further, the NDP and Vision 2030 are anchored by two fundamental objectives, namely the
elimination of poverty and the reduction of inequality. As such, the success of our plans will be
measured by the degree to which the lives and opportunities of the poorest South Africans are
transformed.
Environmental Analysis
Arts and culture initiatives need to contribute to the green environment through, for example,
conservation methodologies, green infrastructure and other such creative and innovative
strategies.
Technological Analysis
Digital technology is enabling cultural and creative products, services and ventures to be
launched from any location at scale, and successful cultural entrepreneurs have been able to
harness technology to their advantage. Increasing use and adoption of technology is the domain
of the privileged and universal access is needed to bring our people up to speed and to allow
them to exploit these technologies that allow for collective access by arts practitioners. We need
to increasingly make use of technology to assist in delivering integrated automated services for
artists.
29
Department of Arts and Culture
Annual Performance Plan 2019|2020
Policy and Legal Analysis
The Revised White Paper carries forward the gains of the preceding two decades and addresses
the challenges of inequality, poverty, unemployment and persistent division based on race,
gender and other factors of exclusion. An opportunity is presented to the ACH Sector to reposition
the Sector and create conditions conducive to flourishing cultural development.
Moreover, the reality on the ground is that the three tiers of government are not funding in
tandem and this hampers coordinated, integrated development. As such, joint implementation
strategies need to be explored that will enable cooperative governance to work optimally and
not sporadically.
2.2 The Organisational Environment
As we strive to be a developmental state with a capable workforce, we will constantly identify
the requisite skills in our respective environments, and develop them through training and
mentorship programmes. To this end, skills audits and work studies will be conducted from time
to time to improve human resource utilisation in the organisation. The ongoing skills audits in the
DAC is to ensure that human resources are correctly placed in the organisation.
The reductions in budgets, and more specifically the ceilings imposed on expenditure on the
compensation budgets of government departments, call for a renewed focus and realignment
of the organisational programmes, structure and resources of the Department. Priority 10 of the
10-Point Plan, that aims to ensure people are placed in the correct positions in the organisation, is
therefore particularly important and will be expedited during 2019/20.
Finally, the oversight work of the Portfolio Committee on Arts and Culture and the Audit and Risk
Committees in the 2018/19 financial year raised critical issues needing serious attention by the
Department and remain relevant in 2019/20, including:
• Improvedandbetterresourceallocationtoensurethatresourcesareallocatedfor
redress purposes.
• Programmesshouldbedesignedtoensurethatredressandtransformationare
achieved. If the aim is to empower and prioritise previously disadvantaged arts and
culture practitioners, the budget should show that.
• Strengtheningandimprovingoversight,monitoringandevaluationofalltheDAC’s

• Focusingonaddressingunder-expenditureontheLibraryGrantandtheinfrastructure
programme.
• EnsuringthattheDepartment’sperformancemeasures(objectives,indicatorsand
targets) are strategic, useful and adhere to the SMART principle to ensure proper
accountability.
• Aligningriskassessmentwithandintegratingitintotheplanningprocesses.
Improving the quality of reporting and compliance
The Department has a portfolio of 25 public entities, which includes heritage, performing
arts, development (funding) bodies and libraries. As part of its oversight responsibilities, the
Department has to ensure that these entities are well managed and that sound governance
principles are entrenched. To this end, the Department has introduced a number of governance
instruments, including the Shareholders’ Compact, governance forums such as the CEO’s Forum
, quarterly reporting and site visits. Despite all these efforts, the DAC’s entities continue to be
confronted with a range of governance challenges, including labour disputes that have regrettably
found their way into the media space. Further to the governance efforts outlined above, the
following interventions were introduced in an effort to curb the challenges facing entities:
• Thescopeofthesitevisitstoentitieswasextendedtoprovideaplatformforall
stakeholders in the entities to engage on matters relating to the operations in the
respective entities.
• TheMinisterinitiatedbilateralmeetingswiththecouncilsoftheentitiesandthishas
afforded both the councils and Minister a platform to further engage on matters
affecting service delivery.
• Supportservices(i.e.legal,HR,IT,etc.)fromtheDepartmentaredispatchedtoentities
to resolve challenges that confront entities.
30
Laying The Foundation For Greatness
Annual Performance Plan 2019|2020
Development of the governance framework
One of the factors contributing to the growing dysfunctionality in our entities at both council
and management levels is a lack of frameworks to guide and standardise some of the activities of
the entities. To this end, the Department is in the process of finalising a governance framework to
strengthen sound governance and standardise operations in the entities.
Even though the governance framework is still being developed, the Department has started
implementing some of its elements or proposals, including induction workshops, which have
been conducted for all newly appointed councils. Further, the Department forged a partnership
with the Institute of Directors in South Africa (IODSA) as part of its efforts to professionalise
membership of councils or boards. This partnership will ensure that all DAC council or board
members formally register as Directors of Boards in line with best practise on good governance.
The feasibility and due diligence study on the amalgamation of DAC public entities
The review of the White Paper on Arts and Culture is nearing completion and is awaiting the final
cabinet processes to conclude the review process. A number of recommendations are proposed
in the draft revised white paper to further the transformation and redress agenda in the Arts,
Culture and Heritage Sector. During the process of revising the White Paper, a diagnosis of the
DAC entities revealed the following:
• Theproliferationofinstitutions,includingtheduplicationofefforts,putsstrainonthe
limited budget allocation.
• ThecurrentportfolioofinstitutionsdoesnotcaterforallaspectsoftheDepartment’s
mandate.
• ThereisinequitabledistributionofACHinstitutionsacrossSouthAfrica,forexample
there are provinces that do not have playhouses.
Considering these factors and others, a need has been identified to reconfigure the DAC entities
for better efficiency and effectiveness. To this end, the Department is in the process of conducting
a feasibility study to test all the options available for streamlining the DAC public entities. The
study will provide the DAC with possible institutional configuration models that will best serve
the Sector to achieve the desired developmental impact.
Performance Information Management
The Public Finance Management Act regulates performance management in government and
further compels government institutions to keep full records of both financial and non-financial
performance. Planning, monitoring and evaluation are key elements of the performance
management system and to this end the Department has established internal processes to
institutionalise performance management. Efforts in this regard are designed not only to ensure
compliance but also to ensure alignment and consistency in the government programme of
action and to demonstrate results.
The adoption and implementation of instruments such as the Medium-Term Strategic Framework
(MTSF), 5-year strategic plans, annual performance plans, and in-year monitoring are a
demonstration of the Department’s commitment to the aforesaid efforts.
The fourth industrial revolution is an emerging trend that cannot not be ignored in the
performance management space. Automation and digital are the new norms, and compel
organizations to adopt electronic systems and/or technology for effective management. In this
regard, the Department has started the process of migrating to digital or electronic systems with
the adoption of the BarnOwl system as the central repository of performance information in the
Department.
The Department has also customised its quarterly performance reporting to the electronic
system adopted by the Department of Planning, Monitoring and Evaluation (DPME). In the MTEF
commencing in 2019/20, the Department will continue to explore opportunities presented by the
fourth industrial revolution to advance its electronic performance management. ‘Going’ electronic
or digital will also alleviate the challenge that has bedevilled the Department for years, namely to
provide a complete portfolio of evidence to substantiate achievement of targets. A “clean audit”
is now a possibility.
The current performance management system would be incomplete without the evaluation
and impact assessment components, which are yet to be institutionalised in the Department.
The DPME has set the tone for the institutionalisation of evaluations with the development of
the National Evaluation Policy (NEP). The Department will be guided by this policy framework
to develop and entrench formal evaluations throughout the programming cycle. Critical to the
institutionalisation of evaluation in the Department will be:

As we continue to deliver services, the Department will at all times conduct its operations within
the parameters of the law. Compliance and therefore good governance will be at centre of our
operations. As a group, the DAC and its entities will continue to work together through a variety of
structures and processes to improve audit outcomes.
This organisational analysis therefore sets the basis for planning over the MTEF commencing
in 2019/20, including the revised framing of the programmes that will support and enable
the organisation to achieve its service-delivery priorities and commitments. The changing
circumstances also mean that there is an urgent need to entrench evaluative thinking in
programming and implementation.
3. REVISIONS OF POLICY AND LEGISLATIVE MANDATES
3.1 Review and/or development of ACH policies
The policy space of the ACH Sector has been neglected over the past few years and this has
created huge governance and financing challenges for the Sector. The Department is developing
policies to create an enabling environment to drive the ACH promotion and preservation
agenda. Policies that will be given priority during the 2019/20 financial year include repatriation
and memorialisation policies. Part of the implementation of the Living Heritage Policy that was
adopted by Cabinet in November 2017, will curtail establishing a closer working relationship
with the Department of Science and Technology (DST) in the area of implementing Indigenous
Knowledge Systems (IKS).
Over and above policies that need to be formulated, some of the outdated legislative frameworks
such as the Heraldry Act and the National Archives Act require amendment. The South African
Library and Information Services Bill has already been drafted and is due to be presented to
Cabinet. The aim of the Bill is to set norms and standards for the Public Library and Information
Services Sector.
3.2 Review of the White Paper on Arts, Culture and Heritage
The Revised White Paper provides a macro policy framework for the entire Arts, Culture and
Heritage Sector, with broad policy directions for ACH subsectors and specific disciplines. The
Revised White Paper on Arts, Culture and Heritage has been approved by Cabinet and tabled in
Parliament. Subject to the formal adoption of the Revised White Paper as a national policy, the
Revised White Paper will be implemented through the existing financial resources allocated to
the Sector, and will entail:
• Legislativerevisions.
• Feasibilitystudiesoftheproposedpoliciesofeachsubsector.
• Implementationplansforthedifferentpoliciesandentities.
• Inductionprogrammesfornewcouncilmembersandstaffofentities.
• Periodicmonitoringandevaluation.

5. PROGRAMME 1: ADMINISTRATION
5.1 Purpose of the Programme
To provide strategic leadership, management and support services to the Department.
Programme 1 provides leadership to the organization to achieve its strategic objectives and
to deliver high-quality public services. The different directorates bring together a range of
corporate functions that work together collectively and consistently to help the Department to
plan ahead by offering expert knowledge, professional advice and effective internal controls. It
also has a coordinating role in standardizing governance and accountability oversight across the
Department.
The following are strategic outcome-oriented goals to which Corporate Services makes a direct
contribution.
i. A transformed and productive ACH Sector - A sector that actively develops, preserves,
protects and promotes diverse ACH
ii. An integrated and inclusive society - An effective/impactful nation-building and
social-cohesion programme
iii. A professional and capacitated ACH Sector - A skilled and capacitated ACH Sector to
ensure excellence
Programme 1 is organised to carry out its work according to the following subprogrammes:
• Ministry
• Management
• CorporateServices
• OfficeoftheCFO
• OfficeAccommodation
Chief Financial Officer
Objective of the Office of the Chief Financial Officer incorporates Financial Management,
Financial Administration and Supply Chain Management. The Unit ensures compliance with the
Public Finance Management Act and other relevant regulations and statutes and will continue
to enhance the financial management environment in the 2019/20 financial year. The processes
implemented in Supply Chain Management will strengthen the efficiency and effectiveness of
the supply of goods and services to the line function. The implementation of the Preferential
Procurement Policy Framework will assist the DAC to support the government’s transformation
agenda. The Department was able to obtain an unqualified audit opinion for the past three years
and is in the process of addressing challenges for clean audit outcomes in 2019/20.
Human Resources
Emanating from the 2019/20 budget allocation, the Compensation of Employees budget will
increase to an amount of R272 858 000 from R253 530 000. The increase will allow the Department
to fill critical and strategic positions. The Department conducted a Work Study and Organisational
Review exercise during the 2018/19 financial year. For the financial year of 2019/20, the department
aims to implement the recommendations of this exercise with the main objective of having an
approved organisational structure that will respond to the strategic objectives of the Department.
Paragraph E.5 of the Public Service Regulations, 2016, requires that the Head of Department put in
place health promotion programmes that are meant to raise and intensify appropriate education,
awareness and prevention interventions. In compliance with the above, the Employee Wellness
Unit in the Department has set a precedentby ensuring that wellness promotion campaigns are
conducted once in every quarter. The objectives of these campaigns are to encourage employees
to actively self-manage their lifestyle behaviour in order to reduce the risk of ill health and the
onset of morbidity, reduce and contain the spread of contagious diseases among employees
within the workplace, and to provide all employees with an opportunity to be tested/screened.

Communications and Marketing
The Communications and Marketing Unit’s objective is to increase the visibility and brand
awareness of the Department and its projects. This will position the image of the Department
positively by highlighting the role it plays in the Arts, Culture and Heritage Sector. The Unit
will launch awareness-creating campaigns that will tell South African communities about the
Department and its mandate. It will also bring to the attention of communities the projects and
services that the Department offers to our communities, for example Mzansi Golden Economy
and the Living Legends Legacy Project. This will be done through advertising (both below and
above the line), public relations, social media platforms (including the departmental website),
opinion pieces and partnerships with different media partners for specific campaigns.
Information and Communication Technology
The Information and Communication Technology (ICT) function serves as an enabler towards
achievement of the Department’s objectives. It provides a cross-cutting function to all
DAC business units, with services comprising network infrastructure implementation and
management, systems development and implementation, as well as information technology
governance and security. Due to the transversal nature of the function, as well as the reliance of
business operations on technology, the ICT services are expected to be available 24/7/365 days
a year. To this effect, the Unit strives to ensure secure and innovative information management
through the efficient use of information and communication technologies.
To contribute to the Fourth Industrial Revolution, the Department is adopting new technologies
and embracing the use of the internet in rendering services to citizens. As part of the digital
transformation the Department, the ICT Unit is driving initiatives geared towards modernization
of services, including:
- Digitization of heritage and archival resources - phase 2 of NAAIRS development
- Modernization of service through business process automation
- Continuous improvement of the Department’s network infrastructure
Job Creation
As per the Government directive, the Department appointed interns equating 5% of its staff
complement in 2018/19, and increased the internship period to 24 months, to provide the interns
with an in-depth experience that is sufficient for them to acquire experience. Government, in an
effort to improve the youth employment rate, is in the process of amending the requirements
specifically for entry-level positions to accommodate graduates. The Department will endeavour
to support government’s initiatives in this regard.
The Department further contributes to job creation through the celebration of national days,
which are implemented by appointed service providers who ensure that employment is created
for the youth. On an annual basis, the Department creates about 15 000 temporary jobs through
these events and, should the format of the celebrations remain unchanged, the Department will
realise an increase in the number of jobs created.
Transformation
In an effort to contribute to government’s key focus areas of diversity and transformation,
the Department will continue to prioritize the appointment of women, specifically in senior
management positions, and the appointment of people with disabilities. This will ensure that the
Department promotes a workforce that is equitably represented.
To contribute to economic transformation, the Department will ensure that procurement
transactions are awarded to BBBEE-compliant service providers.

5.5 Reconciling performance targets with expenditure
In planning for 2019/20 and the MTEF, Programme 1’s considerations for budget allocations are
as follows:
Implementation of Work Study Project
Budget allocation: R1,5 million. The Work Study Project emanated from the skills audit that was
conducted through the National School of Government, which gave a clear picture of the profile
of the Department in relation to skills, qualification and experience. The Department appointed
the Government Technical Advisory Centre (GTAC) to use the skills audit report to implement the
work study and organisational review exercise. This process will determine, among other things, if
employees are correctly placed, assist with the amendment and finalisation of the organisational
structure, determine if there are any duplications in the Department, etc.
Marketing
Budget allocation: R11million. To date, the Department has not adequately marketed its
programmes and projects but in the coming financial year the Department will intensify its
visibility through increased marketing and branding campaigns. The current centralised budget
of R11 million will cater for departmental marketing and branding. Through engagement with our
stakeholders in the Sector and the line functions responsible for different departmental projects,
the Department will ensure that it improves on its marketing efforts.

6.5 Reconciling Performance Targets with Expenditure
In planning for 2019/20 and the MTEF, Programme 2’s considerations for budget allocations are
as follows:
National Convention for Social Compacts
Budget allocation: R8 million. For hosting a national convention in October/November to sign
social compacts on nation building and social cohesion with various sectors (business, labour,
youth formations, media, women’s organisations, other civil society organisations, etc.).
Moral Regeneration and Youth Social Cohesion Advocates Programmes
Budget allocation: R3,5 million. For supporting moral regeneration programmes to instil values
that promote social cohesion and nation building, and activation of the youth social cohesion
advocates programme.
Social Cohesion Advocates Programme
Budget allocation: R3,5 million. Platforms will be created for advocates to promote social cohesion
and national building. This is in addition to platforms they will have created for themselves. It is
also expected that they will strengthen their advocacy work with a particular focus on research
and media outreach, including writing opinion pieces.
Community Conversations
Budget allocation: R1,5 million. Community Conversations will be on a smaller scale in this financial
year but with a different and deeper focus on issues of social cohesion and nation building.
African Continent and BRICS
Budget allocation: R6 million from Institutional Governance and R35 million from Arts and Culture
Promotion and Development (ACPD). To celebrate Africa Month and participate in 2019 BRICS
and Seasons.
Arts and Social Development
Budget allocation: R7 million. For programmes that will advance women, children, older persons
and people with disabilities through arts and culture. These programmes will be transformative in
nature and contribute towards reducing inequalities and promoting inclusivity.
Youth Development and the Young Patriots Programme
Budget allocation: R20 million for youth development and R12 million for the Young Patriots
Programme. The DAC will prioritise youth development through arts, youth development
programmes and its newly established national youth service, the Young Patriots Programme,
to engage young people in service delivery to communities and as a way to build a culture of
patriotism and nation building. Through these programmes, the Department plans to make
young people (both in and out of school) active participants in building capacity in the Sector by
gaining meaningful skills in arts, culture and heritage.
Other Expenditure
The key cost driver in the Monitoring & Evaluation and Strategy & Planning Unit relates to the
printing of strategic plans, annual performance plans and annual reports that have to be tabled in
Parliament. An amount of R750 000,00 is budgeted for the item in the 2019/20 financial year. An
amount of R700 000,00 is budgeted for sectoral and regional planning sessions.

12. MONITORING OF DAC PUBLIC ENTITIES
The Department has established various oversight mechanisms/interventions to assist its public
entities to achieve their targets as adopted and tabled in Parliament. These interventions seek to
ensure that the public entities are better managed and accountable through sound corporate
governance and a performance management system.
In line with National Treasury guidelines, the public entities submit the first and second drafts of
their APPs to the DAC before the end of August and November, respectively. The DAC analyses
the draft APPs, convenes meetings with entities to further interrogate their inputs and provides
feedback for final amendments. The end goal is to ensure that the APPs are all aligned to
government imperatives relevant to the ACH Sector.
Subsequent to tabling the final APPs in Parliament, the Minister signs shareholder compacts with
the councils/boards of all DAC public entities. The shareholder compact is a performance contract
between the Minister and the council/board outlining key expectations and deliverables for both
parties. The approved APPs are an integral part of the shareholder compacts.
The Department has also developed a set of templates to ensure standardised reporting and
to facilitate consistent assessment of performance. The DAC receives quarterly reports from the
25 DAC public entities containing both financial and non–financial performance information,
including progress made against the audit improvement plans. Information reported in the
quarterly reports is verified and validated through quarterly site visits to the entities. The site visits
focus on:
• Theperformanceoftheentities(financialandnon–financial)
• Thestateofgovernanceoftheentities(constitutionofcouncils/boardsandallthe
committees)
• Therelationshipamongtheemployees(i.e.discussionswithstaffatalloccupational
levels)
• Themonitoringandtrackingoftheauditimprovementplan
Further, the DAC has developed a number of governance forums designed to manage relationships
with its public entities, which include:
i) CHAIRPERSONS’ FORUM
This Forum is a consultative body comprising chairpersons of councils/boards of the public entities
reporting to the Minister. The Forum presents the chairpersons with the opportunity to engage
with the Minister on issues relating to the national priorities, government directives, challenges
confronting public entities and information sharing. The Forum meets twice a year.
ii) CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS’ (CEOs) FORUM
The Forum is chaired by the Director–General of Arts and Culture. The Forum comprises all the
CEOs/heads of Institutions of the DAC. The Forum meets twice a year.
iii) CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICERS’ (CFOs) FORUM
This is a forum of CFOs of public entities and is chaired by the DAC CFO. The Forum deals with
issues relating to financial governance as stipulated in the Public Finance Management Act and
National Treasury regulations (including budgeting, auditing and other compliance related). The
Forum meets twice a year.
iv) SECTOR FORUMS
The following are sector–specific forums, in which entities discuss sector–specific issues and share
best practices. The Forums meet twice a year.
• Performingartsinstitutions(PAIs),chairedbytheCEOoftheStateTheatre
• Heritageinstitutions/museums,chairedbytheDDG:HeritagePromotionand
Preservation
• Developmentagencies(DAGs),chairedbytheDDG:ArtsandCulturePromotionand

v) BILATERAL ENGAGEMENTS
These are ad–hoc meetings between the Minister and a particular public entity (preferably with
the Chairperson) to discuss issues pertaining to a particular institution. The Director–General
can also convene these bilateral meetings with any particular public entity if there are pressing
matters to discuss.
