Second Hands Goods Act - an instrument against copper theft

On 30 April 2012 the Second Hand Goods Act was officially launched which amongst others should reduce copper cable theft and control over second hand copper cable sales if correctly applied. In essence, the following are positive changes in the fight against copper cable theft as stipulated in the Act: The Act provides the police with an enabling regulatory framework through which second hand goods dealers and pawnshop owners can be permanently put out of business if found to be involved in the selling of stolen goods - a clean-up of the second-hand goods industry. Penalties, which provide for imprisonment of up to 10 years, are harsh and deterrent to those dealers engaged in the selling of stolen goods. The Act provides for industry bodies to be accredited, second-hand goods dealers associations will be able to support the police in monitoring compliance through inspections and selfregulation. This is also expected to result in close cooperation between compliant industry players and the police, thereby alienating criminal activity. The Act requires dealers to report suspicious transactions if the seller attempts to provide false particulars, or if the goods are suspected of being stolen or tampered with which will improve the identification and recovery of stolen items and the arrest of criminals. The possession of non-ferrous cable with a burnt cover in the absence of a reasonable explanation is penal able. The clause of imprisonment for a period of up to 10 years in these instances is an important additional deterrent.

On Monday this week Tubatse Police arrested 15 people in connection with public violence at Riba Cross. Their arrest follows after and incident that started at about 01:00 in the morning of the 18 June. The residents of Riba Cross village were protesting that they wanted to be employed at the mine, whereby they started to block the R37 road with stones. Tyeres were also burned to disturb the vehicles on the road. The Police were called to the scene and they tried to calm the situation. While they were busy patrolling some of the people threw stones at the Police vehicles and the windscreen of a Police truck was damaged. At about 04:00 the situation became real be tense when buses had to take the mine workers to work. Residents started to throw stones at the buses and other vehicles were also involved. (Two vehicles were also involved in a collision when trying to avoid the violence, fortunately nobody was injured). The Police opened a case docket of Public violence and malicious damage to property and 15 people were arrested. The suspects include 8 men aged between 21 and 40 years and 7 women aged between 19 and 39. They are expected to appear in the Praktiseer Magistrates Court soon. The graph, as published on http:// www.sacci.org.za/, indicate the copper cable theft stats year to date.

UTASA says:
According to the new Consumer Protection Act (CPA) a supplier, in this case the towing service, must provide the client with a written notice of the costs involved. Should a towing service not provide this, the client has a very good chance to have his or her vehicle removed from the recovery services premises without having to pay. It is very important to not just give permission to have your vehicle towed. Dont just sign anything. Read what you are asked to sign and if you are not sure how to proceed contact the 24 hour call centre of Wynand Sakkie Elmon Lucas the United Towing Association of South Africa Wynand - 073 299 2676 on 086 118 8272.

The month on month copper cable losses (source SACCI) in SA amongst Telkom, Transnet and Eskom (which excludes the figures of losses in mining areas) recorded a 20.7% decrease in the April Copper Theft Barometer. Copper theft fell from a high of R34.7million in March, to R27.5-million in April 2012. Figures for May 2012 are not yet available. Exports of copper waste for March increased to $50.3 million from $43.5 million in February and $31.8 million in January. South Africa recorded a total of $599.4 million in waste copper exports in 2011, with a monthly export average of $49.9 million how much of these are stolen copper cable? Recently Thorburn Security Solutions Special Operations Unit arrested five (5) suspects at a local scrap yard in Burgersfort. More than 220 kg of stripped copper was recovered from the suspects. In the beginning of February 560 kg and another 380 kg was recovered in two separate special operations near Burgersfort. Thorburn Security Solutions acknowledge that security staff often gets in touch with scrap metal and second hand goods or goods reported as stolen and that have second hand value if sold. Acts by security officers to sell these goods and metals could be viewed as suspect and could harm the relationship between Thorburn and our clients and a situation of mistrust could develop. Thorburn Security Solutions, in 2011, adopted an internal policy prohibiting employees from dealing in scrap metal and second hand goods without the prior consent and declaration to company officials internally.

They must know how democracy works and what their rights and responsibilities are. An official of Greater Tubatse Municipality told the newspaper ythere are too many marches. The Youth must realise that they can use the system to let their voices be heard. Register as a voter and go and vote for your representatives in the democratic system.. Your representative will ensure that your interests are looked after. Now people dont vote, dont agree with electedted representatives, and dont use the correct channels. They march! A comprehensive presentation was made by the IEC of the whole democratic process to all present, who also represented different political parties youth structures and the youth was encouraged to join parties of the choice and become involved in the democratic process. A lively debate/dialogue was also presented on the political, social and economic challenges aced by todays youth.

Jeugnaweek n groot sukses

Verlede naweek 15 - 17 Junie is n Jeugkamp by PLM Boskamp aangebied. Dit is in samewerking tussen die NG Kerk Burgersfort en Kohin Jeugwerkers van die omgewing gedoen. Dit was n reuse groot sukses en ons wil al die eer, lof en prys aan ons Vade, Verlosser en Here gee en bring s Philip en Thelma Smit, van die kamp se organiseerders. Philip vertel dat die terugvoer vanaf die kinders positief was en dat hulle hulself gate uit geniet het. Ons wil vir almal wat die naweek moontlik gemaak het baie dankie s. Dit sou nie moontlik gewees het sonder julle nie. Julle almal was en is staatmakers. Baie, baie dankie vir julle! Dankie vir julle tyd, sweet, insette, inspanning en gebede. Julle arbeid en gebede het dit moontlik gemaak. Aan al die borge en die wat skenkings gegee het kan ons nie ophou s dankie nie. Julle bereidwilligheid om by te dra tot ons gemeenskap, jeug en ons Vader se koninkryk gaan nie ongemerk verby nie. Dankie daarvoor en mag julle die vrugte en Sen daarvan pluk en dit sewevoudig terug kry s hy en sy span. (Fotos en inligting: Philip Smit)

What do you think about the

Various changes are proposed for the National Roads Traffic Act. These proposals have been published in the Government Gazette and the public can still give input and comment on them until 6 July 2012. Some of the changes include having to prove your identity and place of residence to authorities (similar to the RICA system for cellphones), to report any address changes within 21 days and to have vehicles that are older than 10 years go through a roadworthy test every two years. According to the Automobile Association (AA) up to 12% of road accident deaths are related to unroadworthy vehicles. According to their statistics the average age of vehicles on the road is 13 years. The AA was positive about the proposals, but expressed their hope that the fees charged for the roadworthy tests will be affordable for all. We asked our readers what they think about these proposals. Above: Mr Lucas Mnisi said: I think it is a good plan. Those old cars their lights are not working and other things are not right. Some of them are scared of the police, because if they get pulled over, the car will be scrapped. Now they travel at night. The ones that are not good must be taken off the road for the safety of other lives on the road.

Mnr. Willie Kruger s: Ek dink nie dis n goeie ding nie. Daar is ouens wat nie kan bekostig om n nuwe kar te koop nie, maar hulle kyk regtig mooi na hul kar. Nou gaan hulle gepenaliseer word omdat ander nie na hul voertuie kyk nie.

Mnr. Johan Rossouw s: Ek is so positief daaroor dis net nie waar nie.

Mr Sibonelo Nhlangulela said: I think they want to make it like the Japannese lifestyle. I guess if a car is old it produces more carbon emissions and everything is about global warming these days. I think it is just another money making scheme and it is another way government wants to hold tabs on us. There is an upside to it for government, but a downside for us.

Mr Lionel Tshivhidzo said: I think it is a good idea. Small cars are not like public transport that has to be inspected at certain intervals. It will reduce the amount of accidents on the roads.

Links: Mnr. Migael Botes s: Ek dink dis n goeie ding as jy kyk na die wrakke op die pad. By hom is Juan en Dylan.

used & new m otor spares

Ms Johanna Zitha said: I think it is a good idea. It will help to reduce accidents.

Mr JF Mandlhate said: I think it will be hard to implement. They will evaluate the security of the car. It can reduce the risk of accidents as these cars will be written off if they are not safe.

Mr Tokologo Mphahlele said: Yes, it will help. Old cars do cause accidents. It has defective body parts. This will increase the safety on the roads.

Mr Johannes Nodwele said: If it happens like that it will be easy for the traffic cops to catch those who are stealing cars. On the safety side it will also assist to make the roads safer.

proposed Traffic Act changes?

Mr Caplet Rikhotso said: There will be less accidents. People will just have to take it. Let things change. We cant sit on the same place all the time. Try to make things better. Mr Vincent Malatji said: Up to 70% of the cars that have accidents in Burgersfort are new Mercedes Benz, BMW, Audi etc. People think they have grand cars that can go up to 120km per hours in two seconds and they can take chances. Seriously, leave the old cars alone.

Me. Twanette Dreyer s: Finansiel gaan dit party mense uitbuit. Daar is van ons wat karre het wat ons padwaardig hou, so hoekom moet ons almal daaronder ly omdat sommige taxis ens. nie by die wet hou nie? Dit gaan nie werk nie want daar sal omkopery wees en mense sal hulle net nie steur nie.

Mr Victor Monei said: Obviously it is a good thing as cars on the road need to be roadworthy. There will however be cost implications that will come back to us as motorists. Well have to feed the bill. It is just costs, costs, costs. We are already paying for the licence disks every year, we pay every five years to have our drivers licences renewed and we pay taxes, but nothing gets done on the roads. I dont know about this.

Ms Adelaide Magagula said: I think there will be less accidents but there must be more traffic officers and they must be stricter in enforcing the law.

Mr James Bowen said: I travel from Burgersfort to Dilokong Mine every day and every day there are at least three or four cars that should not be on the road. They have no lights etc. There are roadblocks on the way, but those cars dont even get pulled over. With him is Lizet Kruger.

Me. Ren Stoltz s: As dit gaan werk vir die klomp taxis is dit goed want van hulle val regtig uitmekaar. By haar is Dylan van Rooyen.

Mr Forest Mogoane said: I think it can work. Around Steelpoort and Burgersfort there are many unroadworthy vehicles. Old cars cause accidents. To check them every two years is a good plan. Dont get rid of the old cars, just keep them roadworthy.

Mr Lucky Nkuna said: It will be safer. Government must make an incentive that provides owners of old vehicles with a 10% deposit if they buy a new car.

Mr Steven Sebulela said: I think it is a good thing. I am owning such an old vehicle myself. It will reduce accidents. Mnr. Sam Mphogo s: Hulle moet die onpadwaardige karre by die scrapyard vat. Hulle maak baie ongelukke.

Man, muis en mulligans op die baan
Op Saterdag 16 Junie het Steelpoort Akademie se Golfdag plaasgevind. Baie dankie aan al die borge vir skenkings, borg van putjies, kos, pryse en aan elkeen wat deelgeneem het. Dit was n heerlike oggend wat die weer aanbetref het en die geselskap was onverbeterlik s me. Cornelia Ebershn van Steelpoort Akademie. (Platinum Gazette het ook n draai op die gholfbaan gemaak en opgemerk dat mulligans wyd deur spanne aangewend is in hulle stryd teen die baan. Volgens Brent Kelley van About.com Guide A mulligan, most simply put, is a do-over. Hit a bad shot? Take a mulligan and replay that stroke. So as youve probably guessed, a mulligan is never legal under the Rules of Golf. Mulligans are most often employed during friendly rounds by golf buddies; or during charity or playday tournaments where mulligans are sometimes sold. If mulligans are for sale, that means the golfer can buy, say, three mulligans for a set price each. The sale of mulligans is sometimes used as an additional fund-raiser at charitable events. Are there rules governing the use of mulligans? No - whatever a group of golfers agrees upon is what counts (unless you are using mulligans in a tournament setting - then do what the tournament organizers tell you). Die uitslae was soos volg: 1. Sinvac Mining - Marius van der Merwe, Desmond McManus, Andries Ebershn en Anton Alberts. 2. Tubatse Golf Club Werner Schutte, Johan Swanepoel, George Frazer en Johan Cronje. 3. Tubatse Chrome - JJ van der Walt, Werner Beyleveld, Charl Volschenk en Wim Barnard. 4. Tugela Mining - Jaco Kruger, Thys Ruthven, Kerneels Muller en Reinier Potgieter. 5. Xstrata Projects Deon du Plessis, Baard Langange, Adriaan Coetzee en J Venter.
