In the last two weeks, two significant investment messages were transmitted across SA and out to the world. The first was a Western Cape High Court judgment interdicting a R4.5bn investment that has been under construction for months. The second was the president’s fourth annual investment conference, bringing the target he set four years ago of R1.2-trillion in investment close to the mark, with 95% now pledged.
Most investment commitments recently celebrated at the president’s investment summit require the very literal breaking of ground.Development does not take place in a statutory void. Large-scale, complex projects trigger every rule in the legislated rule book: water use licenses as well as environmental management, heritage, land use and building application processes. All these are underpinned by reams of expert reports, each dealing with a specific field of specialisation.
And these processes are not unique to private development. Public sector projects — whether energy security, education, health, public utility infrastructure or housing — go through the exact same process: years of applications and multiple opportunities for naysayers to veto the plans. For the good public servant tasked with project delivery, this holds the same frustration as for the private sector investor — long and cumbersome processes and no certainty of outcome.
