<ul><li><div>One of the interesting developments of the last two weeks has been the fact that the construction industry has been requested by the DTI to consider a request (the fancy word is a plurilateral request) from various countries of the members of the World Trade Organization (WTO) &quot;to secure&quot; increased access to certain parts of the construction industry in South Africa.&nbsp; In a meeting between the DTI, SAACE, SAFCEC and others this issue and the recent appointment of a Chinese contractor for a TCTA pipeline project was discussed in detail.<br /><br />On the issue of increased or better market access the observation was made that in terms of our WTO commitments our markets are for all practical reasons already open.&nbsp;&nbsp;Our response to the plurilateral request would, in all probability, be positive as it is not realistic to go against the tide of South Africa which is actively opening up it markets in general.<br /><br />Regarding the appointment of a Chinese contractor, one of the important observations that was made in the meeting was that Government contracts fall outside the jurisdiction of WTO and that this issue will have to be addressed at a political level.&nbsp; It was also agreed that at a political level this would be a difficult issue as the Chinese contractors are mostly state owned and their price for this project was approximately 25% cheaper than the next South African contractor.&nbsp; At these prices Chinese contractors could cause havoc in our industry.&nbsp; Since contractors are an important source of income for our industry this is an important issue, and one that I will be monitoring into the future.<br /></div></li><li><div>The visit to the World Bank is going ahead from 29 May to 02 June 2006. Members of the IBDS are still welcome to join us on this visit but time is rapidly running out. The IBDS has secured the assistance of both the National Treasury and the Embassy in Washington with the preparation of a programme and it promises to be a very good visit.</div></li></ul><p>Contact Roelof van Tonder with any queries at (011) 463-2022 or <a href="mailto:roelofvt@saace.co.za">roelofvt@saace.co.za</a>.</p>
