Radioactive Storage Facility

Continued from page 1

OnTuesdaythisweek, the Governor of the Erongo Region, Neville André Itope called a press conference to clarify information that has been circulating r e g a r d i n g t h e construction and presence of a radioactive storage and handling facility in Swakopmund. Itope wanted to clarify on thenotionofthequestion; which was raisedbyamemberofthe parliament during the State of the Na-tion's Address on 14 March thisyearregardingthe construction of an activematerialstorage facility in Swakopmund, which the speaker/ member of the parliament said was currently underway in Swakopmund; and to clarify to the nation, residents, and investors about the two state of affairs related to this question. Itopesaid,“first we all want to encourage members of the parliament to make proper research and investigations on the ground before making statements in the parliament which might alarm and misrepresent the real situation. Our institutions are always available to give information to our leaders, to verify information or credible sources ” Itope further said, “as the Governor's Office, I must categorically state that we do not engage in any activi-

ties involving radioactivematerialswith-in local authority boundaries in the region, we of course have mines in the region but not in town boundaries.”

AccordingtoItope,asa disposable government committed to the wellbeing of the communities and the environment, the Namibian government adhere strictly to all local and international regulations concerning hazardous materials, the government's operations are transparent, and prioritise safety protocols to ensure the protection of both the Namibian people and the environment. The Mayor of Swakopmund, Dina Namubes, saidthecouncilisnotin the position to respond to the public because the matterhas not been tabled by the council andcouncilisnotaware of any application that hasbeentabled.

According to the Swakopmund Chief Executive Officer, Archie Benjamin, the proponent intent to refurbish and existing workshop into an underground bunker built according to international safety standards for the storage and handling of hazardous radioactive substance.Thesitewill reportedly be used for calibration tests for drillingequipmentused in the offshore oil explorationindustry In providing clarity on the application process and status of the application Benjamin said,

“to date, council have not received the application yet because the public scoping process need to be completed. As of now, we through my office and through the office of Stewart Planning have been receiving the public comments, opinions, and objections ” He said, once that process hasbeencompleted,the complete application will then be submitted tocouncil.Councilwill then consider this application based on threefactors-oneisthe zoning of the erf; the other is the environmentalact and then the third one is the public opinion on the matter The council will then take a decision, whetheritispositiveor negative will then be submittedbycouncilto the environmental commissioner for review The environmental commission will then have to express themselves on the matter Even if the council takes a decision, the public has the right in terms of the law, to object to the environmental commission.

Benjamin said it is unfortunate that there is a perception that, maybe due to this misinformation, this matter has been served at council already “Once it has been served, we will have a complete application and know the details and then council will take a decision based on the application.”

Underperforming Ministries Should Be Named and Shamed

During the Nedbank Economic Breakfast meetingheldrecentlyinSwakopmund,the Managing Director of High Economic Intelligence, Salomo Hei said that although the biggest chunk of the budget is allocated to the education and health sectors, the situation of the ground does not reflecttherealityontheground.

Heisaid,“currently,wearenotproducingtheoutcomes for a thriving economy because on the one side, we have got a huge budget for education but on the other side, the outcomes are not what we want. There is a hugechallengeintermsofextraclassroomsandahuge challenge in terms of the quality of education that comes through.” Hei said, his observation is that the funds are not spent in the right areas, thus hampering the quality of education, “when I say right areas, I am referringtotheEarlyChildhoodDevelopment(ECD),

Pre-Primary because this is really where you want to strengthenthecapacityoflearningataveryearlystage. For different reasons, that will also be an issue of execution because we have an expansionary capital budget in terms of investment in infrastructure in the ministries but if your execution rate is low, it means thatitwillbeverydifficulttocreateopportunities,very difficulttocreatethenecessaryeducationbecausethen there is no construction of new classrooms due to the lowexecutionrate.Concerninghealth,Heisaidaccess to clinics and hospitals is very slow to the extent that the numbers do not reflect the reality on the ground. HeifurthersaidhethinksthattheMinistryofFinance shouldintroducea'NameandShame'ontheministries thatarenotexecutingtheirmandatesbecausetheyget funds, but they are not flowing to where they are committed to and that is underperformance and subsequently, it is sabotaging the great initiatives the governmentlookforward.

The Executive Director of the Ministry of Education, Arts and Culture, Sanet Steenkamp said, “we are in a countrywherealmostone-thirdofthepopulationisin school, and more than 32 000 teachers are in our schools. Where does the budget go? N$18.4 is the biggest but N$14.4 goes towards salaries. 5% goes towards policy, administration, and support services. So,wemustunderstandthedynamicsthatwesitwithin education. Steenkampsaidthebiggestproblemisthat people see education as an expense, “we should be starting to see education as an investment, starting at home. The second problem is, with this budget, because of the dynamics, we don't invest at the right level.You must understand that only 29% of children thatareinECDcentresandonly55%ofGrade1shave gone through Pre-Primary So, the limited investment inECD,inPre-Primary,thataremissedopportunities for children and have poorer learning outcomes, we mustspendmoneywhereitshouldbespent.”
