PART A: STRATEGIC OVERVIEW

      1.     UPDATED SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS

      Gauteng is a driving force in the tourism sector as illustrated by the demand scope conducted, compared
      to other provinces as per Tables 1 and 2. Moreover, Gauteng is a crucial hub that establishes economic
      linkages for other tourism destinations in South Africa. Gauteng’s tourism performance is represented
      below:

Source: Annual Tourism Report: 2016, South African Tourism, June 2017

In 2016, Gauteng City Region received 4.3 million foreign tourists (42.9%), surpassing other provinces in
South Africa. South African Tourism (SAT) statistics show that the majority of these were African land-based
visitors. The Province is the second largest long-haul tourist hub in South Africa, attracting large markets
from Europe (France, Germany), UK and the USA and also strong pull within the emerging markets, namely
China and India. The foreign markets primarily visit South Africa for holiday purposes, followed by business
travel purposes, and visiting friends and family. The statistics demonstrate that the Gauteng City Region
has a strong footing within the long-haul international markets, with the potential to grow in the African
tourist markets even more into a lucrative and unique tourist demand market.

In terms of domestic tourism, Gauteng captured 4.4 million domestic trips, taking the second spot from the
8.3 million trips undertaken to Limpopo Province. With the domestic tourist market, it is important to
recognize that the market more frequently takes day trips than overnight trips. Gauteng receives a much
higher number of day trips compared to other provinces, more so with domestic bed nights. The domestic
tourist demographics of Gauteng suggests that the Province is attracting three main domestic market
segments, namely the High-Life Enthusiasts, Business Travellers and Well-to-Do Mzansi Families. However,
statistics show that the Gauteng domestic tourist market generates less revenue compared to other
competing provinces, emphasising the potential to motivate more spending and tourist-like activities under
its domestic tourist markets and residents.

The distribution of international and domestic tourism is as follows;

        •    City of Johannesburg captured 77% of international visitors and 37% of domestic trips.

        •    City of Tshwane captured 18% of international visitors and 21% of domestic trips.

        •    City of Ekurhuleni captured 4% of international visitors and 25% of domestic trips.

        •    West Rand District Municipality captured 1% of international visitors and 21% of domestic trips.

        •    Sedibeng District Municipality captured 1% of international visitors and 1% of domestic trips.

                    Annual Performance Plan Template 2018/19                                              Page 7
The Gauteng City Region is relatively attractive within the foreign markets, especially the African Regional
markets and has great appeal to the domestic market. The sub-regional statistics show a high-level of
interest in the City of Johannesburg, with the distribution of tourists trickling down to the other regions. The
main geographical pull factor for Gauteng is the City of Johannesburg, with the City of Ekurhuleni and the
City of Tshwane competing with each other on a horizontal level and vertical level with the City of
Johannesburg (COJ), as the CoJ region is the core for tourist and economic activities in Gauteng and South
Africa, while the West Rand and Sedibeng are on competitive terms within the market size they need to
capture.

The strongest competitor to Gauteng on provincial level is the Western Cape, followed by KwaZulu-Natal.
Gauteng is strong within the tour operating and conferencing component, emphasising that Gauteng is
primarily focusing on building its business tourism niche offering. Breaking down to region-level in the
Gauteng Province, it is evident that the tourism sector is very strong in the City of Johannesburg, followed
by City of Tshwane and City of Ekurhuleni, with the West Rand and Sedibeng District Municipalities unable
to show the volumes in tourism supply and demand. However, from an economic development point of
view, West Rand and Sedibeng are profiled as having the ability to use tourism as a primary economic
driver. This does not mean that the other development corridors’ economic sectors should not consider
tourism as a key economic driver, but that the uniquely available resources and limited economic activity in
the West Rand and Sedibeng areas provides an ideal platform for tourism development in these areas to
cap unemployment and rural degradation.

Tourism receives priority from a provincial and inter-regional perspective. However, the coordination and
collaboration between local, regional and provincial role-players (public and private sector) remain a key
issue hampering full realization of tourism potential. The 1996 White Paper on Development and
Promotion of Tourism provides that tourism is government led, private sector driven and community based
and thus emphasising the importance of collaboration between public and private sector in order to
catalyse tourism growth and facilitae its leverage for socio-econocic development.

Tourism has the ability to achieve radical transformation objectives, alongside enhancing investor
confidence, increases national pride, and serves as an engine of growth, while generating income for
biodiversity conservation and cultural heritage protection, and thus further motivates the importance of
government to prioritise tourism as a key economic driver for social development.

To improve the competitiveness of all the regions while not deteriorating the current strong players, it is
important that market share is motivated, increased demand and development of key tourism nodes in all
regions that has the ability to attract long-stay and day visitors to the regions, moreover motivating tourism
linkages and an economic rippling effect throughout the Gauteng City Region. The Gauteng City Region has
a unique market trend and attraction compared to other provinces in South Africa. The long-term success
of Gauteng as an international and domestic tourist destination will rely on the strengthening of the market
segment’s needs and potential interest, alongside the increase and spread of destination management,
marketing and development on a spatial-level.

Gauteng’s strength is on cultural and natural heritage, ranging from international importance to local
relevancy. Amongst this list of most visited attractions in Gauteng is the City of Johannesburg, Maropeng
and Sterkfontein Caves (the official visitor centres in the Cradle of Humankind World Heritage Site),
Apartheid Museum, Voortrekker Monument, Soweto Township tours, Constitution Hill, Cullinan Diamond
Mine (Dinokeng) and the Nelson Mandela Museum.

Table 3 captures and presents a summary of key internal and external environmental factors that have a
direct impact on the performance of the tourism sector:

In the current financial year (2017/18) the Programmes are implementing the following projects as part of
the Annual Performance Plans:

Programme 1: Cradle of Humankind World Heritage Site (COHWHS)

    •   Fossil sites inspections - number of fossil sites inspected (annual planned target is 13 registered
        fossil sites): The first set of fossil site inspections for the 2017/2018 year were completed in June
        2017. The reports that are generated from these inspections have been finalised and
        correspondence drafted to landowners as well as the South African Resources Agency (SAHRA).
        The second set of inspections of the sites took place late November/early December 2017 as is
        common practice in terms of the inspection of the sites. The second and final report of the 13
        registered fossil sites in the COHWHS as well as the Malapa fossil site will be delivered and
        reported on in Q4.
    •   Water monitoring programme - CSIR was appointed for the water monitoring programme at the
        COHWHS for the three year period ending in year 2021, and to date 17 water boreholes in the
        COHWHS are being monitored.
    •   School visits - the sponsored school visits to Sterkfontein and Maropeng was undertaken in the
        third quarter and 2000 learners participated.
    •   Jobs sustained at Maropeng - 110 number of jobs sustained at Maropeng and 13 addition jobs
        were created.
    •   Visitors to Maropeng and Sterkfontein Caves - 305 000 people visited the visitor centres in the
        COHWHS.

Programme 2: Dinokeng

    •   4 124 hectares of vegetation managed in DGR – The total number of hectares of vegetation
        managed to date is 1 325. The variance of 2 799 is as a result that no suitable service provider
        was found to implement the project despite having advertised the tender several times. The
        reported limited hectares of vegetation managed were through a partnership arrangement
        between the Dinokeng Entity and Dinokeng Game Reserve Management Agency (DGRMA).
    •   SMMEs and Cooperatives support - a target of 20 SMMEs and 9 cooperatives supported in
        Dinokeng has been achieved to date.
    •   Job creation - There are currently no jobs that have been created through Working on Fire (WoF) as
        a result that no suitable service provider was found to implement the despite having advertised
        the tender several times. 54 jobs were derived through the operations of the DGRMA and 544 job
        opportunities derived from the operational funding expenditure of the DGR.
    •   The training of leaners on tourism and hospitality skills programmes at Dinokeng is going to be
        implemented in Q4.
    •   Community Trust - Community Trust at DGR was launched in 6 July 2017, trustees have been
        vetted and registration documentation was prepared and forwarded to the Office of the State
        Attorney. The Office of the State Attorney has lodged the registration documentation with the
        Master of High Court, and the Trust will be registered in March 2018.

Programme 3: Tourism

    •   The following projects (Number of township tourism products showcased to markets; Number of
        community based tourism projects supported; and Number of people enrolled in tourism and
        hospitality skills development initiatives) in quarter 1 of the 2017/18 financial year featured on
        the GDED APP 2017/18. During the budget adjustment of September 2017, the GDED APP was
        revised to exclude all indicators for GDED agencies and entities. Therefore these projects were
        removed from GDED APP 2017/18 and are now contained in the Integrated Operational Plans for
        the COHWHS and Dinokeng Projects School for 2017/18. These projects are continously
        reported and monitored alongside all projects featured in the Integrated Operational Plans for
        COHWHS and Dinokeng Projects l for 2017/18 on a monthly and quarterly. To date 93 tourism
        products have been showcased to markets and 117 products are still to be showcased at
        Meetings Africa, Vakansie and Soweto Camp Festival Shows which are due to be held in Q4 of the
        financial year. 6 community based tourism initiatives have been supported and 14 768 people
        have been enrolled in skills development initiatives and capacity building workshops.

All these projects will be delivered at the end of the financial year 2017/18, with the exception of hectares
of vegetation managed in DGR and jobs leveraged from this project. This is because there was no suitable
service provider found to implement the project despite having advertised the tender several times.

1.2 Organisational Environment

The COHWHS and Dinokeng Projects remain trading entities of the GDED currently reporting to the
Accounting Officer (Chief Executive Officer). The Tourism Supply function that has been transferred from
the Gauteng Tourism Authority, and the Garankuwa Hotel School are also currently reporting to the
COHWHS and Dinokeng Accounting Officer (CEO) as part of implementing the Gauteng Executive
Authority’s decision to integrate these functions towards establishing the Gauteng Conservation and
Heritage Agency. Discussions are currently taking place to relocate the Ga-Rankuwa Hotel School to an
appropriate department in the Gauteng Province where its mandate can be fully utilised.

 The COHWHS and Dinokeng Projects are now stand-alone entities from 1 October 2017. However, the
entities are not capacitated to perform support functions that have previously been provided by GDED. A
transitional organisational structure has been developed to make provision for the tourism and support
functions. The structure is still awaiting approval.

2. REVISIONS TO LEGISLATIVE AND OTHER MANDATES

There have been no significant changes to the legislative and other mandates governing the tourism
sector, the COHWHS and Dinokeng Projects, and the Garankuwa Hotel School.

For Dinokeng, a total expenditure increased from R33,6 million in 2014/15 to R38,5 million in
2015/16.The project budget will increase as the result of more project implementation. These increases
are as a result of the intensive drive on investment on tourism infrastructure development programmes
and empowerment of SMMEs and cooperatives that the Dinokeng Project has embarked on over a period
of time.. The first phase of the self-drive route project was completed during 2014/15. An immediate
positive impact on visitor numbers to the Dinokeng Game Reserve was reported. The Dinokeng Project
implemented the second phase of the self- drive route in 2015/16. A picnic site and a game viewing deck
in the DGR are also planned to be completed in 2017/18. On completion, these tourism assets will be
managed and operated by SMMEs.

4.5 Performance and Expenditure Trends

The expenditure for Programme 1 is expected to increase in the MTEF period to respond to the
organisational changes as a result of reverse migration of the trading entities from Department of
Economic Development. The trading entities have received full delegation and became stand-alone
entitites from 1 October 2017. The budget will have to be increased to increase resources as the Entities
are expected to establish the following functions which were previously provided by GDED:

    1. Financial Management
    2. Human Resources Management
    3. Communication
    4. Corporate Services
