Construction has, except for 2009Q1, contributed very little to overall GDP growth Government, at 14% of economy, contributed to GDP growth during and post financial crisis. Despite the contribution of agriculture showing a consistent decline from 4.2% in 1993 to 2.5% in 2010, its impact on GDP growth is still significant Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 2009Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 2010Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 2011Q1 Agriculture Mining Manufacturing Construction Trade Transport Finance Government Other Industry contribution to quarterly GDP, 2008Q1-2011Q1 4 SARS Profile In terms of the South African Revenue Service (SARS) Act (no. 34 of 1997), SARS is mandated to Collect all revenues due Ensure maximum compliance with tax and customs legislation Provide a customs service that will maximize revenue collection, protect our borders and facilitate trade Tax revenue collections Tax:GDP ratio Decline in tax revenue of 4.2% 28.0% 27.0% 26.0% 25.0% 4.7 million efiling registrations 13.1 million assessments processed R13, 4 billion debt collected % 23.0% 8,8 million Taxpayers on register Tax Revenue collected R674 billion 15,307 employees 5.9 million calls received 3.7 million Taxpayer visits % 21.0% 20.0% 320,000 imports and exports processed 2,8 million declarations processed per month 3.4 m outstanding returns finalised 1,4 million inbound and outbound passengers processed OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE 2010/11 Revenue growth from R114bn to R674bn over the past 16 years (CAGR ~ 12%) 5

Due to stronger CIT collections as well as significant tax relief for fiscal drag the relative contribution of PIT shrank from 40% in 1994/95 to 34% in 2010/11. Despite the fact that CIT tax rate decreased from 30% in 2004/05 to 28% in 2008/09, relative contribution increased from 12% in 1994/95 to 20% in 2010/11, with some contraction during recession. Contribution of VAT remained steady at an average ratio of 25%; in 2010/11 the year-on-year growth in domestic VAT collections was muted.

Bridgette Myburgh I would like to congratulate SARS on an EXCELLENT job done with regards to service. It is never difficult to get through to the call center.

12 Societal Gains o Using Technology and Analytics SARS leapfrogged peers and address explosive growth since democracy o Advantage of building good fiscal citizenship support establishment of good societal norms o Single view of taxpayer, allow for economic profiling o Integrate 3 rd party data sources, improved intelligence o Improvement in employment and furtherance of IT, despite relative low internet penetration of 14% in 2011 (World 30.2%), cellphone 101% o Improved Revenue collection providing fiscal space during recession o Improved policy analysis in Treasury and in other Government departments 22 Summary and Conclusion Modernization built on segmented and risk management platforms, extensively employing technology to effect a step change in Operational Efficiency. To ensure a successful outcome it required: o Tax Activism moved political hostile taxpayers and low tax morality to responsible fiscal citizens o Careful change management whilst reinforcing job security through no retrenchment policy. o Address the resultant human capital gap through massive investment in upskilling. o Continuous Engagement throughout the project with stakeholders, intermediaries and taxpayers. o Education and buy-in of taxpayers o Championing and visible commitment from all levels of management. 23
