1. 1 2010/11 – 2012/13 Industrial Policy Action Plan (IPAP) Economic Sectors and Employment Cluster Portfolio Committee 23 February 2010

2. 2 The National Industrial Policy Framework The NIPF adopted by Cabinet in 2007 sets out the broad approach to Industrial Policy as; Long term industrialisation Facilitate diversification beyond traditional commodities Increased value addition in tradable goods and services Promotion of labour absorbing economic development Industrialisation that ensures increased participation (B- BBBEE) and marginalised regions Contributes to building industrial development on African continent

3. 33 Progress Flowing from NIPF, Cabinet approved the 2007/8 IPAP in which significant progress has been made: –Strengthening of competition legislation and practice –Revised auto programme for 2013-2020: Automotive Production and Development Programme (APDP) –Development of new architecture for Clothing / Textiles: Clothing Textiles Competitiveness Programme (CTCP) –Removal / lowering of tariffs on key input industries such as on primary chemicals, aluminium, and machinery and textiles not produced in SA –Significant investment and job creation in Business Process Services (Outsourcing) –Strengthened energy efficiency standards in the light of the electricity crisis 2007/8 IPAP reflected chiefly ‘easy-to-do’ actions / low-hanging fruit versus ‘need-to-do’ actions to achieve structural change 2010/11 – 12/13 IPAP is a product of the Economic Sectors and Employment Cluster. Responds to the demand of the new administration for strategic higher impact industrial policy interventions. Movement to three year rolling IPAP with iterative scaling up and continuous improvement

4. 4 Problem statement Prior to global crisis SA achieved relatively high growth rates but this masks key structural problems SA growth rates lower than peers Growth driven by unsustainable increases in credit extension and consumption (financial intermediation, insurance, real estate, transport, storage, communication, wholesale and retail, catering, accommodation) grew 7.7% annually, Production sectors, (agriculture, mining, manufacturing, electricity, water and construction) only grew 2,9% annually. Contributed to range of imbalances in economy including current account deficit Employment has remained unacceptably high – never below 22.8%

8. 8 Key Constraints and Opportunities First-order cross-cutting constraints –Currency overvaluation and volatility –High cost of capital relative to key competitors –Failure to adequately leverage public capital and other large ‘fleet’ procurement expenditure –Monopolistic pricing of key intermediate inputs / purchasing of outputs –Unreliable and expensive rail and ports systems –A skills system weakly responsive to industry requirements Sector specific opportunities –Detailed Key Action Plans for each sector with clear actions, responsibilities and milestones

16. 16 IPAP advances a number of economic objectives Rural development through e.g. agro-processing, bio-fuels, forestry, cultural industries, aquaculture, tourism Advanced technological capabilities through e.g. nuclear, advanced materials, aerospace, ICT Imperatives and opportunities in Green Economy Downstream mineral beneficiation Strengthened linkages between Tourism and Cultural industries Stronger integration between sector strategies and skills development plans Macro-economic stability: –Improved trade balance –Increased supply  lower inflationary pressures –Increase in net revenue base –Diversification of production and risk Significant contribution to employment, both direct and indirect

18. 18 New Growth Path A process is required to further elaborate other economic policies and integrate inter-related policies and key departments and agencies into the New Growth Path – led by EDD: –Framework Response to the International Economic Crisis –Stable pro-employment macroeconomic environment –Public sector –Labour market policies –Industrial policy and action plans –Knowledge economy –Green economy –Rural economic development –Tourism development –Enterprise development –Informal economy –Social economy –Work on skills for the economy –Provision of economic infrastructure which excludes bulk infrastructure –Regional integration

19. 19 A Comprehensive and Integrated policy response is required to scale-up Industrial Policy 1.Stronger coherence between macro- and micro- economic policies in relation to exchange and interest rates; inflation and trade balance imperatives 2.Industrial financing channelled to more labour-intensive and value-adding sectors 3.Leveraging procurement to raise domestic production and employment in a range of sectors 4.Developmental trade policies such as tariffs and standards deployed in a selective and strategic manner 5.Competition policies: competitive input costs for productive investments and affordable goods and services for poor and working-class households 6.Skills, technology and innovation policies better aligned to sectoral priorities 7.Deploying these policies in general and in relation to more ambitious sector strategies, as set out in detailed Cross-cutting and Sector KAPs

20. 20 1. Strengthen coherence between macro- and micro- economic policies Macro-policies which are more supportive of IPAP and other production sectors: –Competitive and stable exchange rate regime –A competitive real interest rate regime relative to key trading partners Micro-economic interventions supportive of key macro- economic objectives –Lower inflation: critical industrial inputs and goods / services consumed by poor and working-class households Competition and regulation policies Promotion of new entrants to increase competition –Improvement of trade balance

21. 21 A critical determinant of profitability and investment is the cost and availability of capital on terms comparable to competitors SA’s cost of capital is almost the highest of our trading partners Recent improvements in investment rates have been driven by public investment. Private investment has been concentrated in debt-driven consumption sectors and capital-intensive mineral- energy sectors Development banks have played a critical role in channelling finance to productive activities in countries that have industrialised rapidly, in the context of a large-scale industrial policy e.g. Korea’s KDB and Brazil’s BNDES These development banks source concessional funding in order to drive rapid growth in investment Therefore, IPAP focuses on: –Securing and channelling concessional DFI funding –Strengthening the conditionalities and impact associated with on- budget incentives 21 2.

25. 25 2. Industrial Financing KEY ACTION PLANS IDC funding source 1.Review IDC business model to free up capital for IPAP, other value-adding and more labour-intensive sectors 2.Intra-governmental process to identify and create long-term ongoing source of concessional funding for IDC Strengthen impact: incentives and support measures 3.Strengthen conditionalities in relation to: - Employment intensity - Market behaviour - Localisation of supply chains - Much stronger scrutiny and conditionalities for further ‘mega- projects’

26. 26 3. Leveraging Procurement Large public procurement is currently conducted more on an ‘ad-hoc’ than ‘strategic’ basis –No medium- and long-term procurement plans –Little or no price advantage –Limited leveraging of domestic production Many sectors in the IPAP will depend on leveraging public expenditure Strengthen procurement to deliver greater industrial development and net economic benefits Overhaul procurement policy, legislation and practice to: –Identify 8-10 large strategic ‘fleet’ procurements for the development of long-term procurement plans that set out what will be manufactured domestically –Incentivise local production and B-BBEE on routine purchases, while ensuring value-for-money for the state

27. 27 3. Leveraging Procurement KEY ACTION PLANS 1.

32. 32 5. Competition Continued challenges with respect to monopolistic provision of strategic goods and services and low levels of effective competition. Returns derived not from effort and innovation but from historical position Existing regulation and enforcement backed up by IPAP focus on greater strategic role of competition authorities including by ensuring that strategies for those that receive state support are based on long term capacity building investment. Three areas of problematic activity; –Private inputs into manufacturing and other productive processes, e.g. steel, chemicals –Public inputs into manufacturing and other productive processes, e.g. electricity and telecommunications –Wage goods and other products purchased largely by poor and working- class households, particularly food

33. 33 5.
