Unless these young people are pre- pared today for their tomor- row, the concept of trans- formation will remain an elusive dream. It will mean the struggles waged by gen- erations of young people would have been in vain,” said the Deputy Minister. In line with the Presidency’s call for all spheres of gov- ernment to channel all ef- forts to job creation, Deputy Minister Magwanishe com- mended Ekurhuleni for re- sponding to the President’s call with vigour. “Our re- sponse to the announce- ment by the President was to adopt a new vision to drive investment, produc- tivity and transformation in the Department’s portfolio of State Owned Companies, their customers and suppliers so as to unlock growth, drive industrialization, create jobs and develop skills,” he said. The Deputy Minister further indicated that through inter- actions with provinces, the department has aligned plan- ning in the different spheres so as to direct and heighten investment to the South Af- rican youths’ participation in the mainstream economy. Magwanishe said the part- nership between Ekurhuleni is critical because it will take a coordinated and proper planning to address the dire situation of our youth. “The objective in this regard is to collaborate and maximize the impact in areas where needs have been identified. Our Youth Economic Participa- tion programme has been able to identify some areas requiring our intervention,” he said. The City of Ekurhu- leni’s job summit comes in the wake of statistics that Ekurhuleni’s broader unem- ployment figure is 39.5%, thus implying that over 1, 185, 000 people in the region have no income source. Of these people, 61% are young people of 34 years old and below. Moreover, 42 percent of the population does not have a matric.

Johannesburg residentswho manage their con-

sumption of water andelectricity well will benefitmost from the new tariffsannounced in the 2013-2014 budgets.The budget provides fortariff increases that are,on average, lower than theprices determined by thebulk suppliers – Rand Wa-ter and Eskom.Johannesburg Member ofthe Mayoral Committee forFinance, Geoffrey Makhu-bo, says the City is keenlyaware of the difficult eco-nomic circumstances expe-rienced by households.“Families are faced withvery real challenges whenit comes to disposable in-come and our tariffs need torespond to these pressures,”he says.This year the city respond-ed to the submissions madeby residents and stakehold-ers and some of the originalproposed increases werelowered. The average tar-iff increase for electric-ity for 2013-2014 budget is7.32%. This is lower thanthe 8% Eskom increaseapproved by the NationalEnergy Regulator of SouthAfrica (Nersa).Through the city’s steppedtariff structure for electric-ity services, residents can,however, manage their ownmonthly bills. The principleis: the higher the consump-tion, the higher the cost perkilowatt-hour (kWh). Themonthly electricity bill for

a household consuming350kWh will increase fromR17.49 to R22.40 Thispercentage increase getshigher as consumption pat-terns grow. Consumers of500kWh of electricity willsee a R68.49 rise in theirmonthly bills.The city’s water bills re-flect the same stepped tar-iff approach to encouragesavings on a very scarcecommodity. Though allhouseholds receive thefirst 6 000 kilolitres (kl) ofwater per month for free,those consuming between 6000kl and 10 000kl will ex-perience a modest increaseof 5.3% –way below the av-

erage increase of 9.82%.The size of the new increasesgrows bigger as water con-sumption patterns escalate.Those consuming up to 20klper month will pay 11.82%more and the households us-ing more than 40kl will seea 12.82 % increase in theirbills. MMC Makhubo saysconsumers themselves cantake steps within their ownhouseholds to reduce theirmonthly bills. Informationon practical measures tolower consumption is widelyavailable from the City, fromCity Power, Joburg Waterand Eskom.“We can all contribute tothe national efforts to con-

If your family cannot pay for your University fees, you should get a NSFAS loan (NationalStudent Financial Aid Scheme). The good news is that it does not depend on your schoolmarks. The bad news is that, last year, there was not enough money in the Fund to give aloan to all the students who needed one.NSFAS pays for most of your tuition fees, books and accommodation on and off campus(you can also get free meals at UJ).It is a loan: it means you’ll have to pay it back when you start working, but you don’t haveto pay back 40 % of the loan if you pass all your courses, 30 % if you pass three quartersand 20 % if you pass half of them. Even better: the loan for your last year (if you pass) willbe converted in a bursary.

More info: www.uj.ac.za, click on Finance (on the top), then NSFAS on the right.

Where and when should I apply?You have to fill an NSFAS application at each University where you have applied. Checkthe application deadline, as it depends on each Varsity!

You can apply for the loan, as soon as you have received a student number: you don’t needto wait for the result of your application. In any case, at UJ or TUT, you might be onlyadmitted in January (with your Grade 12 results): it will be too late to apply for NSFAS(deadline at UJ is end of September at UJ) or you will have to stand in long queues (atTUT).

You can apply online, but you will need to upload a lot of documents!

Get all the documents during your June holiday

When you apply, you need a lot of documents!

If one is missing, your application will not be accepted. Read the list of documents neededon UJ website well. Make at least 2 certified copies (keep one for you, in case you need itfor another Varsity)info :[email protected] – blog : Sizanani mentors

HOWDO I GET A NSFAS LOAN ?MATRIC TIPS

There are four mainforms of business enter-

prises to choose from, beinga sole proprietor (one manbusiness), partnership, closecorporation and a company.When you want to start abusiness, there are four im-portant aspects to keep inmind, being the numberof persons involved; theamount of money requiredto start the business; theamount of money available;and the requirements of thepotential customers.By dis-cussing the main forms ofbusiness enterprises, theabove four aspects will be-come clear.The simplest form of busi-ness enterprise is a sole pro-prietor (one man business).A single vendor conducts abusiness, without any legalrequirements to register thebusiness. (As will be dis-cussed below, close corpora-tions and companies need tobe registered with the Com-panies and Intellectual Prop-erty Commission (CIPC),which falls under the De-partment of Trade and In-dustry (DTI)). Should Sam,for example, want to open atuck shop, this form of busi-ness enterprise is ideal.A partnership is a form ofbusiness enterprise consist-ing of at least two people(there is no limit on the max-imum amount of partners ina partnership), who want toconduct their business withthe aim of making a profit.In order to establish a part-nership, two or more partiesneed to enter into a partner-ship agreement,which agree-ment does not need to be inwriting but can be an oral(verbal) agreement. From apractical perspective, how-ever, it makes more businesssense to reduce this partner-ship agreement to writing,as the parties need to agreeon, amongst others things,their profit sharing ratio.Should a dispute arise be-tween the partners at somestage, a written partnershipagreement may be useful toprove the terms agreed to bythe partners initially.Another important aspect

of a partnership is that eachpartner needs to contributeto the partnership. This con-tribution can be in the formof money, assets, labouror skill. Should Jonathan,Sandile and Thabo want tostart a plumbing businesstogether, a partnership couldbe ideal. They will needto enter into a partnershipagreement with each other,which agreement must spellout, amongst others, theirvarious roles in the partner-ship, how they will eachshare in the profits or lossesof the partnership, and whateach partner will contributeto the partnership. Jonathancan, for example, contrib-ute a minivan with whichthey can travel to where theplumbing needs to be done;Sandile can contribute hisplumbing skills; and Thabocan contribute money whichthey can use to advertisetheir newly formed busi-ness.A partnership does not needto be registered with CIPC,and as a result, it is simpleto start. A partnership doesnot legally exist separatefrom its partners, so therights and responsibilities ofthe partnership are the rightsand responsibilities of thepartners. When a partner isno longer a partner in a part-nership (due to death, forexample), the partnershipdoes not exist any longer,and the remaining partnerswill have to conclude a newpartnership agreement, andestablish a new partnership.The third form of businessenterprise that may be cho-sen is a close corporation.Close corporations are basedon an association agreementbetween its members (it canhave 1 to 10 members), andeach member of a close cor-poration also needs to makea contribution to the closecorporation (such a con-tribution may also consistof money, assets, labour orskill).It is important to notethat in terms of the Com-panies Act 71 of 2008 (theCompanies Act), no newclose corporations may beregistered with CIPC any-

more. All close corpora-tions that existed prior to thecommencement of the Com-panies Act (that is before 1May 2011), will continue toexist, and do not need to beconverted to private compa-nies (companies ending with(Pty) Ltd).If you are a mem-ber of a closed corporation(which would have beenregistered before 1 May2011), it is a good businessentity to carry on using, as ithas legal personality (whichmeans that legally it existsseparately from its mem-bers, and a change in itsmembership does not havean effect on the existence ofthe close corporation). Anexisting close corporationmay still be amended by,for example, adding moremembers to the close cor-poration. Any amendmentsmust be effected throughCIPC. (Some amendmentsmay cost money.)Should you want to start anew business, and wouldlike to have the benefit ofan entity which legally ex-ists separate from yourself,then incorporating a com-pany may be ideal. A com-pany needs to be registeredwith CIPC, and a copy ofits memorandum of incor-poration (which is the docu-ment setting out all the in-formation of the company’sshares, directors, classes ofshareholders, etc.) needs tobe submitted along with it.The simplest type of compa-ny to have is a private com-pany (companies endingwith (Pty) Ltd). A privatecompany may have shareswhich it issues to sharehold-ers, but the Companies Actrestricts it in such a way thatshares may not be offered tothe public, but only to par-ties mentioned in the memo-randum of incorporation.Shareholders share in theprofit of the company.The Companies Act hasstrict requirements on howa company must conduct itsbusiness, and there are manylegal requirements to follow.It is advisable to obtain legaladvice when deciding on acompany as business form.

The function whichtakes place in the churchevery year on youth monthaims to empower the com-munity’s youth by providingthem the opportunity andplatform to showcase theirtalents.
