4 CHAIRPERSON S STATEMENT The Directors are required by the Public Finance Management Act (Act 1 of 1999) to maintain adequate accounting records and are responsible for the content and integrity of the Annual Financial Statements and related financial information included in this report. It is the responsibility of the directors to ensure that the annual financial statements fairly represent the state of affairs of the entity at the end of the financial year and the results of its operations and cash flows for that period. The External Auditors are engaged to express an independent opinion on the annual financial statements and were given unrestricted access to all financial records and related data. The Annual Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with Standards of Generally Recognised Accounting Practice (GRAP), including any interpretations, guidelines and directives issued by the Accounting Standards Board. The Annual Financial Statements are based on appropriate accounting policies consistently applied and supported by reasonable and prudent judgments and estimates. The Board of Directors acknowledge that they are ultimately responsible for the system of internal financial control established by the entity and place considerable importance on maintaining a strong control environment. To enable the Directors to meet these responsibilities, the accounting authority sets standards for internal control aimed at reducing the risk of error or deficit in a cost-effective manner. The standards include the proper delegation of responsibilities within a clearly defined framework, effective accounting procedures and adequate segregation of duties to ensure an acceptable level of risk. These controls are monitored throughout the entity and all employees are required to maintain the highest ethical standards in ensuring the entity s business is conducted in a manner that, in all reasonable circumstances, is above reproach. The focus of risk management in the entity is on identifying, assessing, managing and monitoring all known forms of risk across the entity. While operating risk cannot be fully eliminated, the entity endeavours to minimise it by ensuring that appropriate infrastructure, controls, systems and ethical behaviour are applied and managed within predetermined procedures and constraints. The Directors are of the opinion, based on the information and explanations given by management, that the system of internal control provides reasonable assurance that the financial records may be relied on for the preparation of the annual financial statements. However, any system of internal financial control can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance against material misstatement or deficit. The Directors have reviewed the entity s cash-flow expenditure for the year ending 31 March 2012 and, in the light of this review and the current financial position, they are satisfied that the entity has, or has access to, adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Although the accounting authority is primarily responsible for the financial affairs of the entity, they are supported by the entity's External Auditors. The External Auditors are responsible for independently reviewing and reporting on the entity's Annual Financial Statements. These have been examined by the entity's External Auditors and their report is presented on page 44. 2

9 1.5 LEGISLATIVE MANDATE The ECGBB derives its mandate from and strives towards full implementation and compliance with the following pieces of legislation that govern the rendering of effective and efficient service delivery: Eastern Cape Gambling and Betting Act, No 5 of 1997; National Gambling Act, 33 of 1996, which was repealed on 1 November 2004 by the National Gambling Act, 7 of Other pieces of legislation under which the ECGBB operates include, inter alia, the following:- Basic Conditions of Employment Act, 75 of 1997; Employment Equity Act, 55 of 1998; Labour Relations Act, 66 of 1996; Promotion of Administrative Justice Act, 3 of 2000; Promotion of Access to Information Act, 2 of 2000; Public Finance Management Act, 1 of 1999, as amended; Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act, 5 of

10 1.6 ACCOUNTING OFFICER S OVERVIEW The role of the Eastern Cape Gambling and Betting Board (ECGBB) is, first and foremost, to regulate all gambling activities in the province as contemplated in the Eastern Cape Gambling and Betting Act (No 5 of 1997). But it is tasked with more than this. President Jacob Zuma, in his State of the Nation address, unveiled government s New Growth Path to address unemployment, inequality and poverty by unlocking employment opportunities in South Africa. The Eastern Cape Gambling & Betting Board (ECGBB), as a regulator, has a critical role to play in support of this initiative by denting the grinding poverty in our province. Responding to the clarion call by the president, the MEC for Economic Development and Environmental Affairs Mcebisi Jonas responded with a bouquet of measures to ensure both progress and sustainability. From the outset, allow me to acknowledge the sterling leadership provided by the Board and the Chairperson in particular, who have made a tangible difference in delivering on our mandate and creating an environment conducive to the economic development of the province. A full staff complement in key strategic posts has further ensured that the organisation has unrivalled capacity to function optimally. As a gambling regulator, we are called upon to present creative and innovative ways to push back the frontiers of poverty and spur economic growth in the gaming sector. Recent efforts in this regard have included: We awarded Tsogo Sun Emonti Pty (Ltd) t/a Hemingways Casino a new 15-year casino licence. Tsogo Sun Emonti Pty (Ltd) envisages investing a further R400-million into East London, which will create well over 100 jobs. In addition, Sun International s investment of R1-billion into the Boardwalk Casino will create 500 direct jobs. Our Responsible Gambling & Customer Care Strategy sets forth a pragmatic social marketing strategy that ensures behavioural change in dealing with problem gambling, customer care and research. We are very conscious of the fact that we have to strike a delicate balance between revenue collection and social responsibility. To this end, the ECGBB has succeeded in carving a dynamic niche as a key player poised to propel our province s boxing heritage to dizzying new heights. This investment in boxing is underpinned by extensive media exposure, which has succeeded in endearing the Board to legions of sports lovers throughout the province. In addition, the year under review has seen the following milestones: The appointment of the Board of Directors at the beginning of the financial year which has brought about stability in the organisation. Subsequent to that, all critical Board committees were established, thus ensuring compliance with the responsibilities of corporate governance. All remaining Senior Management posts, which are critical to the functionality of the organisation, were filled in the latter part of the financial year. With regard to the Operations of the ECGBB, I am proud to report that: A route operator licence was issued for a period of fifteen (15) years. GIS mapping was undertaken of the location of all licensed premises in the province. A feasibility study on the introduction of a Bingo Licence was commissioned and a report made available to the Board. Risk management has been implemented. 8

11 ECGBB funded a number of community projects during the financial year under review, to the value of R1.2-million. Among these projects, we established a fully-fledged computer laboratory at Sunduza Junior Secondary School in Sterkspruit, Joe Gqabi District, with internet access on eighteen (18) computers. The above activities have enabled the ECGBB to collect R102 million in taxes versus a budget of R99.7 million. In addition to the total collected taxes and fees, R20-million of exclusivity was received from the Zone 2 Casino Licence. In terms of our compliance and auditing services, I can report that the ECGBB did not experience any significant challenges with regard to licensees complying with the conditions of their licences, or with revenue to be collected. There were also no significant challenges regarding the verification of gambling devices, employees employed by the industry or environmental audits. Over and above the above responsibilities, ECGBB conducted a number of successful raids and operations with the assistance of South African Police Services regarding illegal gambling in the province. To this end, we destroyed over 55 illegal gambling machines and devices worth in excess of R As part of communicating and creating platforms to disseminate responsible messages: The Board sponsored a number of boxing promoters whose world-class boxing tournaments provided significant opportunities for the ECGBB to communicate responsible gambling messages, as well as exposing the ECGBB s brand to the public. The Chairperson and CEO granted interviews to umhlobo Wenene s Sport Show and dstv s Supersport to articulate the ECGBB s CSI initiatives. Despite these success stories, a number of challenges emerged during the reporting period which I would like to highlight. These include: The declining budget allocation received from DEDEAT, which will impact negatively on the operations of the ECGBB. The review of the ECGBB Act, which has a significant impact on the fees charged, which have remained unchanged for the past ten (10) years. Proposed additional tax levy by the Honourable Minister of Finance in his 2012 Budget Speech on Gross Gambling Revenue to be introduced effective from 01 April 2013 financial year. We are addressing these challenges as an organisation, with further guidance and leadership provided by the Board of the ECGBB. As the Accounting Officer, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to DEDEAT, the Board of Directors of the ECGBB, Management and all ECGBB staff for their continued support. In conclusion, we would like to extend our thanks and appreciation to all licensees. MR REUBEN MABUTHO ZWANE CEO AND ACCOUNTING OFFICER OF THE ECGBB 9

This breakthrough, in prosecuting and shutting down illegal gambling activities, was a joint effort of the ECGBB and the South African Police Services (SAPS). 12

15 2.1.5 OVERVIEW OF THE ORGANISATIONAL ENVIRONMENT FOR 2011/ PROMOTION OF RESPONSIBLE GAMBLING AND BALANCING THE NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF GAMBLING In intensifying the promotion of responsible gambling we have ensured compliance with the requirements of the legislation, and all advertising by licence holders in the province was vetted by the Board. All adverts are required to carry slogans relating to responsible gambling and must contain the contact details of the National Responsible Gambling Programme toll free number. The South African gambling industry, including gambling regulators, established and funded the National Responsible Gambling Programme (NRGP) to promote responsible gambling. The NRGP conducts responsible gambling campaigns and public education about gambling. The NRGP conducted TV, radio and print media public awareness campaigns on gambling with specific emphasis on the festive season. In further pursuit of responsible gambling, the Board received and processed 515 applications of exclusions GAMBLING REVIEW COMMISSION The Gambling Review Commission Report, which was commissioned by the Honourable Minister of Trade and Industry, was presented to Parliament and has a number of policy-related recommendations.

39 3.1 REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE Report of the Audit and Risk Committee We are pleased to present our report for the financial year ended 31 March Audit and Risk Committee Members and Attendance The audit committee consists of the members listed hereunder and should meet at least 4 times a year as per its approved Terms of Reference. During the current year 5 meetings were held. Name of Member Number of Meetings Attended L Smith (Chairperson) CA(SA), RA 8 H Marsberg, B.Com 8 Z Nomafu (Director and Audit Committee Member) CA(SA) 4 P White CA (SA) 6 The Audit Committee members were appointed with effect from 1 April 2011 and members have remained unchanged for the year. The Audit Committee is considered to have the correct experience, qualifications and skills to carry out their responsibilities effectively.. Audit and Risk Committee Responsibility We report that we have adopted appropriate formal terms of reference in our charter, in line with the requirements of Section 38(1)(a) of the Public Finance Management Act, No. 1 of 1999 (PFMA) and Treasury Regulation 3.1. We further report that we conducted our affairs in compliance with this charter. The Effectiveness of Internal Control We report that as part of our mandate to provide oversight to the Board we have considered the following: the efficiency and effectiveness of the system of internal control applied by the Board; risk management; the Annual Financial Statements; the management report of the Auditor-General; and the quality of in-year management and monthly/quarterly reports submitted in terms of the PFMA and the Division of Revenue Act. Based on the information provided to the Audit and Risk Committee by both Management and internal audit, it would appear that the system of internal control was not entirely effective for the year under review. Management responses to weaknesses so identified indicate that these will be addressed in the year ending 31 March. Evaluation of Financial Statements We have reviewed and discussed the annual financial statements, which have been recommended to the Accounting Authority to be submitted to the Auditor-General for audit purposes on 31 May In this regard we consider it appropriate to bring the following matters to the attention of the users of these annual financial statements: Regarding employee bonuses, we have expressed our concern to management and to the Accounting Authority regarding the payment of bonuses to employees during a financial year in which the Board incurred a deficit, and we have drawn attention to Section 51 of the Public Finance Management Act. We note, however, that Management and the Accounting Authority have not conflicted with any legislation or prescripts by awarding bonuses to employees. We have reviewed the Auditor-General South Africa s management report and management s response thereto. We have reviewed the Board s compliance with legal and regulatory provisions. We have reviewed the performance information to be approved by the Accounting Authority and to be submitted to the Auditor-General of South Africa on 31 May We have reviewed significant adjustments resulting from the audit. 37

40 Internal Audit The Internal Audit function is outsourced to a service provider. Internal audit has met their operational plan for the year, as adjusted where necessary, with the approval of the Audit Committee. Risk Management The Audit and Risk Committee has ensured that the Risk Management Framework was prepared and approved during the financial year. Risks were identified during a formal risk identification process and the Chief Executive Officer has been appointed as the Risk Officer for the Entity. We are, however, unable to determine the effectiveness of the risk management process given its infancy. The function will be addressed in the year ending 31 March Pre-determined Objectives The Audit and Risk Committee has directed Internal Audit s resources to the audit of predetermined objectives at both 30 September 2011 and 31 March This process, we believe, has provided valuable feedback to Senior Management as well as to the Accounting Authority in terms of the Board s performance against these objectives. However, we consider it appropriate to note our concern that despite the guidance provided by both Internal Audit and this committee, the process of recording objectives and measuring performance against them remains somewhat inadequate in the Performance Information Report. Report of the Auditor General South Africa We concur with and accept the Auditor-General of South Africa s report on the annual financial statements, and are of the opinion that the audited annual financial statements should be accepted, read together with the report of the Auditor-General of South Africa. Loren Smith Chairperson of the Audit and Risk Committee, 31 July

41 3.2 REPORT OF THE ACCOUNTING OFFICER STRENGTHENING OF TRUSTS OVERSIGHT FUNCTION A number of Trusts have been established through the Terms and Conditions of Licence of Licensees. Most of these Trusts hold equity in the licensees and are required to submit progress reports with respect to the implementation of community projects, in line with the objects of the said Trusts. Furthermore, the ECGBB will enter into Service Level Agreements (SLAs) with the second category of Trusts - the Community Trusts that hold no equity in licensees, to agree on socio-economic projects to be implemented in the areas in which the Trusts operate MARKETING AND COMMUNICATION The ECGBB has enhanced and strengthened its Marketing and Communication Strategy in order to ensure that it becomes visible both to the provincial gaming industry and to the public that it seeks to support and protect. A Communication and Marketing Strategy has been developed and approved during the 2011/12 financial year. In this regard, the Board signed a sponsorship agreement with Eyethu Boxing Promotions which provided brand exposure on the Supersport television channel. This platform also allowed ECGBB to broadcast responsible gambling messages under the following slogan: Avoid the knockdown, gamble responsibly. ECGBB, in partnership with DEDEAT, DSRAC, and ECPTA, hosted an International Boxing Federation (IBF) title fight between reigning champion Nkosinathi Joyi, from Mdantsane, and a Japanese challenger Katsunari Takayama EMPLOYMENT CREATION The gaming industry has created much needed employment opportunities in the province, as showcased below: SECTOR CATEGORY FY2007 FY2008 FY2009 FY2010 FY2011 Casinos 4,961 4,041 3,709 2,914 3,752 Limited Payout Machines Horseracing Industry TOTAL 5,482 4,548 4,153 3,855 4,488 In the year under review (2011/2012) the re-investments in Zone 1, Zone 2 and Zone 3 have cumulatively created 3,560 new jobs during the construction and operational phases EMPLOYMENT EQUITY PLAN The ECGBB has used the demographics of Provincial Economic Active Population (EAP) to determine its relevant labour market. The following diagrams indicate the applicable percentage that will be used in this reporting term to determine the numerical goals and targets that must be pursued in order to achieve the required levels of representivity of designated groups in the workforce of the ECGGB. The EAP statistics are based on the latest information available from the Department of Labour and from Statistics South Africa. The table below indicates an analysis of the over- and under-representation of the workforce profile when measured against the Provincial EAP targets. This is done for the previous financial year (01/04/ /03/2012) as well as the next three years of the EE Plan. 39

47 REPORT ON OTHER LEGAL AND REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS 7. In accordance with the PAA and the General Notice issued in terms thereof, I report the following findings relevant to performance against predetermined objectives, compliance with laws and regulations and internal control, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion, Predetermined objectives 8. I performed procedures to obtain evidence about the usefulness and reliability of the information in the report on the annual operational performance as set out on pages 22 to 35 of the annual report. 9. The reported performance against predetermined objectives was evaluated against the overall criteria of usefulness and reliability, The usefulness of information in the annual performance report relates to whether it is presented in accordance with the National Treasury's annual reporting principles and whether the reported performance is consistent with the planned objectives. The usefulness of information further relates to whether indicators and targets are measurable (i.e. well defined, verifiable, specific, measurable and time bound) and relevant as required by the National Treasury's Framework for managing programme performance information (FMPPI). The reliability of the information in respect of the selected programmes is assessed to determine whether it adequately reflects the facts (i.e, whether it is valid, accurate and complete). 10. The material findings are as follows: Usefulness of information Presentation Reasons for major variances not explained 11. Fifty-five percent of major variances between planned and actual achievements were not explained in the annual performance report for the year under review as per the National Treasury's Annual Report Preparation Guide. This was due to a lack of documented and approved internal policies and procedures to address reporting processes and events pertaining to performance management and reporting. Consistency Reported objectives, indicators and targets not consistent with planned objectives 12. Treasury Regulation (TR) (g) requires that the annual performance plan should form the basis for the annual report, therefore requiring the consistency of objectives, indicators and targets between planning and reporting documents. A total of 65% of the reported objectives, indicators and targets were not consistent with the objectives, indicators and targets as per the approved annual performance plan. This was due to officials that were not adequately trained and skilled to prepare the performance plan. Changes to objectives not approved 13. TR requires that the annual performance plan must be approved by the executive authority. Therefore, if the annual performance plan is changed in-year due to significant policy or mandate changes, the updated plan has to be approved by the executive authority. A total of 62 (100% of changes made) objectives, reported in the report on the annual operational performance, were inconsistent with the objectives as per the approved annual performance plan. This was due to significant changes that were made subsequent to the appointment of a strategic service manager. Measurability Performance targets are not specific 14. The National Treasury's FMPPI requires that performance targets be specific in clearly identifying the nature and required level of performance. A total of 47% of the targets relevant to the office of the CEO, Strategic Services and Compliance and Licensing were not specific in clearly identifying the nature and the required level of 45

48 performance. This was due to the fact that management was not aware of the requirements of the FMPPI and officials that were not adequately trained and skilled to prepare the annual performance plan. Performance targets are not time bound 15. The National Treasury's FMPPI requires that the time period or deadline for delivery be specified. All of the targets relevant to the office of the CEO, Strategic Services and Compliance and Licensing were not time bound in specifying a time period or deadline for delivery. This was due to the fact that management was not aware of the requirements of the FMPPI and officials that were not adequately trained and skilled to prepare the annual performance plan. Performance indicators not well defined 16. The National Treasury's FMPPI requires that indicators should have clear unambiguous data definitions so that data is collected consistently and is easy to understand and use. A total of 49% of the indicators relevant to the office of the CEO, Strategic Services and Compliance and Licensing were not well defined in that clear, unambiguous data definitions were not available to allow for data to be collected consistently. This was due to the fact that management was not aware of the requirements of the FMPPI and officials that were not adequately trained and skilled to prepare the annual performance plan. Indicators not verifiable 17. The National Treasury's FMPPI requires that it should be possible to validate the processes and systems that produce the indicator. A total of 49% of the indicators relevant to the office of the CEO, Strategic Services and Compliance and Licensing were not verifiable in that valid processes and systems that produced the information on actual performance did not exist. This was due to officials that were not adequately trained and skilled to prepare the annual performance plan Reliability of information Reported Indicators not supported by sufficient appropriate evidence (validity, accuracy and completeness) 18. The National Treasury's FMPPI requires that documentation addressing the systems and processes for identifying, collecting, collating, verifying and storing information be properly maintained. I was unable to obtain all the information and explanations I considered necessary to satisfy myself as to the validity, accuracy and completeness of the actual reported performance relevant to 53% of the indicators of the office of the CEO, 35% of Compliance and Licensing and 29% of Strategic Services. 19. This was due to limitations placed on the scope of my work by the absence of adequate portfolios of evidence and the institution's records not permitting the application of alternative audit procedures. Additional matter Achievement of planned targets 20. Only 66% of the planned targets were achieved during the year under review. This was mainly due to the fact that indicators and targets were not adequately budgeted for. Management also did not take proper corrective action to ensure that underperformance identified and reported in the quarterly reports was addressed during the year. Compliance with laws and regulations 21. I performed procedures to obtain evidence that the entity has complied with applicable laws and regulations regarding financial matters, financial management and other related matters. My findings on material noncompliance with specific matters in key applicable laws and regulations as set out in the General Notice issued in terms of the PAA are as follows: 46

49 Annual financial statements 22. The financial statements submitted for auditing were not prepared in all material respects in accordance with the requirements of section 55(1) of the PFMA. Material misstatements of disclosure items and the cash flow statement identified by the auditors were subsequently corrected, resulting in the financial statements receiving an unqualified audit opinion. Strategic planning and performance management 23. The accounting authority did not ensure that the public entity had and maintained an effective, efficient and transparent system of internal control regarding performance management, which described and represented how the entity's processes of performance planning, monitoring, measurement, review and reporting were conducted, organised and managed as required by section 51(1)(a)(i) of the PFMA. Procurement and contract management 24. The preference point system was not applied in all procurement of goods and services above R as required by section 2(a) of the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act, 2011 (Act No.6 of 2011) (PPPFA) and TR 16A6.3(b), 25. Invitations for competitive bidding were not always advertised in at least the government tender bulletin and for a minimum of 21 days as required by TR 16A6.3(c). 26. Goods and services with a transaction value below R were procured without obtaining the required price quotations as required by TR 16A6.1. Expenditure management 27. The accounting authority did not take effective steps to prevent irregular expenditure as required by section 51(1)(b)(ii) of the PFMA. Asset management 28. Bank reconciliations were not performed on a weekly basis as required by TR (j). Internal control 29. I considered internal control relevant to my audit of the financial statements, annual operational performance report and compliance with laws and regulations. The matters reported below under the fundamentals of internal control are limited to the significant deficiencies that resulted in the findings on the report on the annual operational performance and the findings on compliance with laws and regulations included in this report. Leadership 30. The material findings related to the reporting on performance objectives are the result of officials that did not have the required knowledge of the FMPPI. The public entity did not properly plan and provide training on performance information planning, management and reporting. The accounting authority did not ensure that the public entity had and maintained an effective, efficient and transparent system of internal control regarding performance management, which described and represented how the entity's processes of performance planning, monitoring, measurement, review and reporting were conducted, organised and managed. Management did not take adequate steps to ensure that controls were in place for the correct and accurate reporting on performance objectives. This resulted in information that was not useful or reliable. 47

50 31. Irregular expenditure was incurred by the entity due to contraventions of the supply chain management regulations, which can be attributed to the lack of monitoring to ensure that the related controls were implemented throughout the year under review Financial and performance management 32. Material misstatements related to the cash flow statement, completeness of the financial instrument note to the financial statements, the budget reconciliation and the disclosure of irregular expenditure were identified during the audit. This was due to a lack of full understanding of the financial reporting framework. Management did correct the material misstatements identified. 33. Management did not implement adequate controls over the reporting on predetermined objectives with the result that the annual operational performance report contained numerous material misstatements that were identified during the audit and corrected by management. The operational performance report is not useful and reliable due to the reasons reported in paragraph 30 above. The information system of the public entity is furthermore not adequate for the preparation of the report on predetermined objectives. 34. Management did not properly review and monitor the entity's compliance with laws and regulations. As a result material non-compliance was identified related to the PFMA, Treasury Regulations and the PPPFA. East London 31 July

56 ACCOUNTING POLICIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method to write off the cost of assets to their residual values over their anticipated useful lives as follows: The useful lives of items of property, plant and equipment have been assessed as follows: Item Buildings Fixtures and Fittings Motor Vehicles Furniture and Equipment Computer Equipment Other - Cell phone - Library books Average useful life 50 years 10 years 5 years 4-10 years 3-4 years 2 years 3 years Land is not depreciated as it is deemed to have an indefinite life. The useful life as well as residual values are reviewed annually. Gains or losses arising from the disposal of property, plant and equipment are determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the assets, and are recognised in the statement of financial performance as realised. Property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment losses whenever events indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised in respect of the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceed its recoverable amount, which is the higher of an asset's net selling price and value in use. An impairment loss or reversal of an impairment loss is recognised as an expense/income in the statement of financial performance, as incurred Intangible Assets An intangible asset is recognised when: it is probable that the expected future economic benefit or service potential that is attributable to the asset will flow to the entity; and the cost or fair value of the asset can be measured reliably. Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses. Software is amortised on a straight line basis over its anticipated useful life. Generally, costs associated with developing computer software programmes are recognised as an expense as incurred. However, costs that are clearly associated with an identifiable and unique product, which will be controlled by the entity and have a probable benefit exceeding the cost beyond one year, are recognised as intangible assets. Expenditure which enhanced and extended the benefits of computer software programmes beyond the original life of the software is capitalised. Computer software development costs recognised as assets are amortised using the straight line method over their useful lives. Costs associated with the maintenance of existing computer software programmes are expenses, as incurred. 54

57 ACCOUNTING POLICIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2012 The useful life of the intangible assets has been assessed as follows: Item Computer Software Average useful life 3 years Intangible assets are derecognised when the asset is disposed of or when there are no further economic benefits or service potential expected from the use of the asset. The gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an intangible asset is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying value, and is recognised in the statement of financial performance. 1.3 Financial Instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the entity's Statement of Financial Position when the entity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Impairment of Financial Assets The Entity assesses at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is deemed to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (an incurred 'loss event') and that loss event has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtors or a group of debtors is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial re-organization and where observable data indicate that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults. Trade and Other Receivables Trade and other receivables are categorised as loans and receivables and are initially recognised at fair value plus direct transaction costs and subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less any impairment loss recognised to reflect irrecoverable amounts. Amortised cost refers to the initial carrying amount, plus interest, less repayments and impairments. Trade and Other Payables and Borrowings Financial liabilities consist of trade payables and borrowings. They are categorised as financial liabilities at amortised cost and are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost which is the initial carrying amount, less repayments, plus interest. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash includes cash on hand (including petty cash) and cash with banks (including call deposits). Cash equivalents are short-term highly liquid investments, readily convertible into known amounts of cash, that are held with registered banking institutions with maturities of three months or less and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. For the purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand, deposits held on call with banks, net of bank overdrafts. The entity categorises cash and cash equivalents as loans and receivables. 55

58 ACCOUNTING POLICIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH Derecognition of Financial Instruments The Board derecognises a financial asset (or group of financial assets) when: - The contractual rights to the cash flows arising from the financial asset have expired; or - The entity transfers the financial asset, including substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership; or - It transfers the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset, but assumes a corresponding obligation to pay the cashflows to one or more recipients, and consequently transfers substantially all the risks and benefits associated with the asset; or - No future economic benefits are expected. A financial liability (or group of financial liabilities) is derecognised when and only when the liability is extinguished, i.e. when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires. 1.4 Retirement Benefits Retirement benefits The policy of the Board is to provide retirement benefits through an established fund governed by the Pension Fund Act. The provident fund is a defined contribution fund which does not require an actuarial valuation. Contributions to the provident fund are charged to the Statement of Financial Performance in the year to which they relate. The Board has no obligations to fund post-retirement medical benefits. 1.5 Provisions and contingencies Provisions are recognised when: - the entity has a present obligation as a result of a past event; - it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits or service potential will be required to settle the obligation; and - a reliable estimate can be made of the obligation. The amount of a provision is the best estimate of the expenditure expected to be required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date. Provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate. Provisions are reversed if it is no longer probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits or service potential will be required, to settle the obligation. Contingent assets and contingent liabilities Contingent assets and contingent liabilities are not recognised. 1.6 Revenue Revenue comprises principally of: Revenue from Exchange Transactions: - Fees charged for services rendered (i.e. Annual admin fees); - Recoveries of expenses incurred in the production of revenue; - Sundry income Revenue from Non-Exchange Transactions (Taxes and Transfers) - Grant funding received from Provincial Government 56

59 ACCOUNTING POLICIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2012 Revenue from Exchange Transactions is recognised on accrual basis using the following methods to determine stage of completion: - Fees charged for services rendered are recognised when they become due in terms of the Eastern Cape Gambling and Betting Act No 5 of Recoveries of expenses incurred in the production of revenue are accrued on completion of service rendered. Revenue from Exchange Transactions is measured at fair value on the date it accrues. Revenue from Non Exchange Transactions: Revenue relating to operational expenditure is recognised in the period in which the transfer agreement becomes binding and is measured at fair value as at the date of recognition. Gambling taxes and fees to the fiscus The gambling taxes and part of the fees collected are paid over to the Provincial Revenue Fund at the end of each month as prescribed by the Gambling and Betting Act. These gambling taxes and fees are not recognised as revenue as they are collected on behalf of the state, however an asset and liability is recognised when taxes and fees become receivable from licensee and payable to the state. Receivable and payables for collection and distribution to the state are initially measured at cost and carried at fair value Accruals Performance bonus Accrual for performance bonus is raised during the year and paid in the following financial year. Leave provision The employees of the Board are entitled to 22 working days per annum as leave gratuity. The policy adopted by the Board is that all its employees should take leave during the year, failing which they will forfeit their leave days on the 30th of June each year. The leave days are recognised as they accrue to employees. The liability is based on the total amount of leave days due to each employee at year end multiplied by each employee's respective daily rate of remuneration which is calculated from the respective employee's gross annual remuneration package. 13th Cheque The employees of the Board can structure their salary package to have a bonus portion (13th cheque) which is paid on the 15th of January each year. The bonus is recognised as it accrues to employees who have elected to structure their salary packages to have a bonus portion. 1.8 Operating Leases Leases where the lessor retains the risk and reward of ownership of the underlying asset are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to the statement of financial performance on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. 1.9 Fruitless And Wasteful Expenditure Fruitless and Wasteful expenditure means expenditure which was made in vain and would have been avoided had reasonable care been exercised. All expenditure relating to fruitless and wasteful expenditure is recognised as an expense in the statement of financial performance in the year that the expenditure was incurred. The expenditure is classified in accordance with the nature of the expense, and where recovered, it is subsequently accounted for as revenue in the statement of financial performance. 57

60 ACCOUNTING POLICIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH Irregular Expenditure Where irregular expenditure was incurred in the previous financial year and is only condoned in the following financial year, the register and the disclosure note to the Annual Financial Statements must be updated with the amount condoned. Irregular expenditure that was incurred and identified during the current financial year and which was not condoned by the National Treasury or the relevant authority must be recorded appropriately in the irregular expenditure register. If liability for the irregular expenditure can be attributed to a person, a debt account must be created if such a person is liable in law. Immediate steps must thereafter be taken to recover the amount from the person concerned. If recovery is not possible, the accounting officer or accounting authority may write off the amount as debt impairment and disclose such in the relevant note to the Annual Financial Statements. The irregular expenditure register must also be updated accordingly. If the irregular expenditure has not been condoned and no person is liable in law, the expenditure related thereto must remain against the relevant expenditure item, be disclosed as such in the note to the Annual Financial Statements and updated accordingly in the irregular expenditure register Taxation No provision for taxation has been made as the Eastern Cape Gambling and Betting Board is exempted in terms of Section 10 (1)(cA)(1) of the Income Tax Act (Act No: 58 of 1962) Related Parties The entity operates in an economic sector currently dominated by entities directly or indirectly owned by the South African Government. As a consequence of the constitutional independence of the three spheres of government in South Africa, only entities within the national/provincial/local sphere of government are considered to be related parties Budget Information Comparison of budget and actual amounts are presented in a separate additional financial statement: Statement of Comparison of Budget and Actual amounts. The entity only presents the final budget amounts. Differences (variances) between the actual amounts and budget amounts are also presented. The financial statements and budget are not presented on the same basis as the financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis and the budget on the modified accrual basis of accounting. Reconciliation between the surplus/deficit for the period as per the Statement of Financial Performance and budgeted surplus/ (deficit) is included in the Statement of Comparison of budget and actual amounts.. 58

Cash flow forecasts are prepared and monitored. Interest rate risk The Board policy is to manage interest rate risk so that fluctuations in variable rates do not have material impact on surplus (deficit). The following table illustrates the sensitivity of the entity to interest rate changes should interest rates increase or decrease with 2% during the next financial year: R R -2% -2% Decrease in net deficit for the year 93, ,238 2% 2% Increase in deficit for the year 93, ,238 Credit risk Credit risk consists mainly of cash deposits and cash equivalents. The Board only deposits cash with major banks with high credit standards. The Board therefore has no concentration of credit risks. The Board s maximum exposure to credit risk is equal to the cost amount of the financial assets at balance sheet date and is summarised as below: Cash and cash equivalents 8,724,755 52,547,277 Receivables on collection for distribution 8,493,807 6,921,310 Trade and other receivables from exchange transactions 1,763,818 1,401,323 As of 31 March 2012, trade and other receivables were impaired with an amount of R The age analysis of financial assets are indicated in note 2 and note 3. R R 25. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The table below indicates the different classes of financial instruments. The carrying value approximate their fair value. Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets and financial liabilities with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market other than those that the entity intends to sell, those that the entity upon initial recognition, designates as available for sale; or those for which the holder may not recover substantially all of its initial investment. 68

The entity is not able to generate sufficient cash flows from its core business to cover its operations. As such, the entity is dependant for its continued operation in the foreseeable future on continued Government financial support. Management have determined that such support is reasonably expected to continue and therefore have prepared these Annual Financial Statements on the going concern basis. 27.
