  20. ORGANISATIONAL ENVIRONMENT • Second phase – advertising and filling of vacant posts has started, plans to complete by end of the first quarter. • Additional capacity to be obtained with the mid-term adjustments later in the year. • Line function has maintained the two branches of Hydrocarbon and Energy Planning and Electricity, Nuclear and Clean Energy. • Plans for gradual increase of the line function capacity to realise the full structure of the new DoE by end of the MTEF. 20

  21. POLICY DEVELOPMENT Legislative focus for this year: The Seventeenth Constitutional Amendment Bill. The REDs establishment Bill – establish efficient regional electricity distributors. The Electricity Regulation Amendment Bill – appropriation of land for electricity infrastructure, provision for the establishment of ISMO. New Generation/IPP Regulation – provision of regulatory intervention to level the playing field in the electricity generation sector. 21

  22. POLICY DEVELOPMENT Legislative focus for this year: The Petroleum Products Amendment Act, 2003 – address non-compliance in the liquid fuels sector. The National Energy Act, 2008 – empowers the Minister of Energy to execute certain initiatives to achieve security of supply, develop regulations for the provision of energy data, etc. Review of the fuel specification regulation – to advance to higher and cleaner fuels. 22
