Role of IPAP to date
• First step to beneficiation is to plant trees – they are a crop not a naturally occurring resource.
• Role of IPAP to be commended – long recognised blockages to doing this.
• IDC – R20m for EIAs* for small growers in E/Cape.
• Right focus but need to move on from here.
*Environmental impact assessments

Increasing cost of energy
TODAY TOMORROW
Eskom’s tariff application will lower SA’s primary and secondary sectors’ ability to compete internationally. Source EIUG January 2013
Will drive unemployment and impact on SA’s exports and balance of payments

How will SA compare?
![Page 16: JANE MOLONY - Department of Trade and Industry• Forest product sector – good for ‘SA inc.’ • Timber and paper – both strategic resources • Value add – paper products](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042103/5e7fef7c14a4031e7e5bb6a8/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Cogeneration & renewable energy
• Combined heat and power
• 40 to 60 % less carbon intense
• Low hanging fruit – waiting since 2012 for Co-gen programme
• Improve ability to sell power to 3rd parties, not only to Eskom
• Encourage projects through tax breaks against clear energy self-sufficiency targets
![Page 17: JANE MOLONY - Department of Trade and Industry• Forest product sector – good for ‘SA inc.’ • Timber and paper – both strategic resources • Value add – paper products](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042103/5e7fef7c14a4031e7e5bb6a8/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Challenges to sector competitiveness
• Fibre supply
• Administered pricing –Freight rail, port,
fuel, water use, property rates, and electricity to name some
• Cost of legislation
• 100,000 hectares – BBBEE transformation charter.
• Foreign subsidy for tree growing – Chile, NZ, Brazil, Australia and China cheap fibre AND new pulp on line internationally commodity price pressure job losses (170 000 150 000)
• Recovered Fibre under stress
Collected 1.2 million tonnes, 62% BUT exports increasing, request for export tax
![Page 18: JANE MOLONY - Department of Trade and Industry• Forest product sector – good for ‘SA inc.’ • Timber and paper – both strategic resources • Value add – paper products](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042103/5e7fef7c14a4031e7e5bb6a8/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Critical factors for local beneficiation
• Competitive cost position for manufacturing • Creation of local or export market for products • Access to skilled people • Secure and stable inputs (energy, raw materials, chemicals)
– Fibre – Recovered fibre
• Enabling environment from legislation – fast track exemptions & exclusions – Welcome streamlining of EIA process – Not exclude sector from incentives (eg MCEP)
• Partnership business labour government
![Page 19: JANE MOLONY - Department of Trade and Industry• Forest product sector – good for ‘SA inc.’ • Timber and paper – both strategic resources • Value add – paper products](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042103/5e7fef7c14a4031e7e5bb6a8/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Improving global competitiveness
• Infrastructure
• Utilities
• Other i. Avoid Additional taxes: e.g. Carbon tax – cost and role,
municipal rate increases, waste water discharge charge system
ii.Land claims: delayed settlements
iii.Less red tape not more.
