It is important to indicate that gamblingamongstotherthingsprovidessocialnetworkingopportunities but we must always be on thelookout for thosewhogethookedandendupneglectingtheirfamilyresponsibilitiesandcauseundue harm. We support responsible gambling programmesinitiatedbytheindustrytoeducatepeople about the industry, its positives andnegatives.
The Board has once more performedoutstandingly and continued to attain unqualified audit reportssince inception including theyearunder review while discharging its mandate toregulate and control gambling in the Province.

The gambling industry has been negativelyaffected by global recession and continuouslyhas to explore ways to mitigate these not onlyin South Africa but across the globe. In line with theslowpaceof recoveryof theSouthAfricaneconomy, the taxrevenuecollectionhasshowna decline albeit not huge but it is worrying. There was a slight increase of 7, 9% year onyearincreasingfromR609,1milliontoR657,2million.
We are working with Treasury and the industry to find ways and mechanisms to increase revenue for the fiscus but strike a balance with regards to developmentsintheindustryandforgingaheadwith transformation agenda with vigour.

I am pleased to present the GautengGamblingBoard’sAnnualReportforthefinancial year ended 31 March 2011.
The tax revenue collection has shown anincrease of 7.9% year-on-year increasing from R609,1 million to R657,2 million. The growth intaxrevenueshouldbeseeninthecontextof thegeneralstateof theglobalandSouthAfricaneconomy. The worst financial crisis since 1930 and theworst global economic recession sinceWorld War II appear to have bottomed out in the first half of the calendar year 2009. The global economic business cycle has switchedfrom recession to slow recovery. The South African economy has not escaped the impactof global recession despite the fact that thelocalbankingsectordidnotsharethesubprimerelatedproblemsexperiencedinotherpartsof the world. We believe the recovery of the major economieswill remainuncertain as the impactof fiscal and monetary stimuli fades. Therefore, the economic landscape is still fragile and thegrowth in taxes will be slow in line with theglobal and local economy.
The Board considers responsible corporategovernance to be integral to the success of the organisation and the Board’s commitmentto it is outlined in the corporate governancereport which appears later in the AnnualReport. Assessment starts at the top with a comprehensive annual peer review of theperformance of all Board members as well asthe Board itself and its various sub-committees.
These sub-committees, which cover the fields of executive, audit and risk, remuneration,nomination, and responsible gambling andgaming; maintain diligent oversight of allsignificant factors within the Board’s purview. TheBoardhasformulatedandabidesbyacodeof ethics which includes a set of clear goalsto achieve its relationship with licensees, staff,thegeneralpublicandthecommunitiesamongwhich we operate and service. The increasingly complex field of compliance with the laws and regulations governing the Board’s businessis another among the many issues on thegovernance agenda. Following publication of theKingIIICodeof Governance,managementhas reviewed current practices relevant to theCode.
During April 2011 the MEC for EconomicDevelopmentGautengappointedanewBoardafter the expiry of the term of office of the previous Board. As required in terms of the Actandgoodcorporategovernance,theBoardMembers come from diverse professionalbackgrounds. Their collective qualifications, skills and experience enable them to providetransparent,independentandobjectivejudgmentin the decision-making process. I am deeply honoured by the confidence placed in me by the MECandtheGautengProvincialGovernmentto leadaverydynamicandbalancedBoardinterms of amongst others, continuity, gendersensitivity, business acumen and industryknowledge.
LookingaheadtheBoardwillbe:
• Intensifying its responsible gamblingawareness campaign in the Province. More than a third of adults in Gautengin the 18-30 year age group participatein some form of gambling, especiallyLotto, Lotto Plus, Powerball, Casinogambling and Dice. Almost two-thirds say that they gamble in a desperate bidtoboosttheirincome,andonlyonethirddo so for fun or entertainment. The high incidence of unemployment and povertyplay an important role in this patternwhich indicates that gambling is beingseenbymanyyoungpeopleasoneof thesolutions to thecurrentchallengeswhichthey face. One of the objectives of the campaignwillbetodrivethemessagethatgambling is a form of entertainment forwhichtheparticipantpays,inthesamewaythatapersongoestoamovieandpaysformovietickets;gamblingshouldnotbeseenas a solution to the participant’s financial woes.
• Reviewing the impact of the proposedwithholdingtaxonpunters’winnings,andcontributing to the deliberations on theproposed amendments to the TaxationLaws Amendment Bill. Following the recommendationof theKatzCommissionThird Interim Report, the Minister of Finance announced during his annualbudget speech in February that the

• Implementationof thenewmandateentrustedbyParliament to theBoardduringDecember2010 to act as a supervisorybodyoverseeingcomplianceby accountable institutions in thegambling sector in terms of the FinancialIntelligence Centre Act.
IwishtotakethisopportunitytoexpressmysinceregratitudetothepreviousBoardforthesterlingworkthey did in providing leadership to the organisation.

Hosting the FIFA World Cup 2010 was the highlight of the year and anorganisational triumph for South Africa. The event boosted national morale andlifted some of the post-recession gloom. The soccer world cup created increasedbettingopportunitiesandanawarenessof soccer betting. This resulted in an overall increase in tax collections for fixed odd betting of 23%.
Tax collections on behalf of the GautengProvincial Government increased from R609millionintheprioryeartoR657millioninthecurrent year representing an increase of 7.9%. The collections exceeded budget.

4. I conducted my audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing andGeneral Notice 1111 of 2010 issued in Government Gazette 33872 of 15 December 2010. Those standards require that Icomply with ethical requirements andplan and perform the audit to obtainreasonable assurance about whether thefinancial statements are free from material misstatement.
5. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about theamounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement,including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, theauditorconsidersinternalcontrol
relevanttotheentity’spreparationandfairpresentation of the financial statements in order todesignauditprocedures that areappropriate in thecircumstances,butnotforthepurposeof expressinganopinionontheeffectivenessof theentity’sinternalcontrol. An audit also includes evaluating theappropriatenessof accountingpoliciesusedandthereasonablenessof accountingestimatesmadebymanagement,aswellasevaluating theoverallpresentationof thefinancial statements.
6. I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my audit opinion.
Opinion
7. In my opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects,the financial position of the Gauteng GamblingBoardasat31March2011,andits financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordancewiththeSAStandardsof GRAPandtherequirements of the PFMA.

The Board has decided to early adopt GRAP23 Revenue from Non-Exchange Transactions(Taxes and Transfers). Early adoption of GRAP 23 does not have any impact on prior yearfigures except for reclassification from Revenue to Revenue from Non-Exchange Transactions.
Accounting policies for material transactions,eventsor conditionsnot coveredby the aboveGRAPstandardsweredevelopedinaccordancewith the hierarchy set out in paragraph 12of GRAP 3. The details of any changes in accountingpoliciesareexplainedintherelevantpolicy. Assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses were not offset except when offsetting wasrequired or permitted by a standard of GRAP.
A summary of the significant accounting policieswhichhavebeenconsistentlyappliedaredisclosedbelow:
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES1.1 Presentation currency
The annual financial statements are presentedinSouthAfricanRand,whichisthefunctionalcurrencyof theBoard,andamountshavebeenroundedtothenearestRand.
1.2 Going concern assumption
The annual financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis, i.e. the assumptionisthattheBoardwillcontinuetooperateasagoingconcernforat leastthe next 12 months.
1.3 Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are statedatcost lessaccumulateddepreciationandaccumulatedimpairmentlosses,exceptforbuildings which are stated at a revaluedamount, being its fair value at the dateof the revaluation less any subsequentaccumulateddepreciation and subsequentaccumulated impairment losses. Accumulated depreciation at the date of revaluationiseliminatedagainstthegrosscarryingamountof theassetand thenetamountrestatedtotherevaluedamountof the asset.
Theusefullivesof itemsof property,plantandequipmentwereassessedasfollows:
Buildings 50yearsFixtures and fittings 10yearsFurnitureandequipment 6yearsMotorvehicles 5yearsInformationtechnologyequipment 3years
Subsequent expenditure
Subsequent costs are included in theassets’ carrying amount or recognised asa separate asset,onlywhen it isprobablethat future economic benefits or service potential over the total life of the assetin excess of the most recently assessedstandardsof performanceof theexistingasset will flow to the Board. All other repairs and maintenance are charged tothe Statement of Financial Performanceduring the financial period in which they are incurred.
The cost of an item of property, plantand equipment acquired in exchange fora non-monetary or a monetary asset ora combination of monetary and non-monetary assets is measured at its fair value. If the acquired itemcannotbemeasuredatitsfairvalue,itscostismeasuredatthecarrying amount of the asset given up.
Depreciation
Depreciation is recognised on a straight-linebasisovertheestimatedusefullifeof theassettoitsresidualvaluefromthedaythat the asset is ready for use.
Residual value is what the asset wouldcurrently receive if in the condition itwould be at the end of its useful life. The assets’ residual values and useful lives

are reviewed and adjusted if appropriateat each reporting date, and any changesare recognised as a change in accountingestimates in the Statement of FinancialPerformance. The actual useful lives of theassets,residualvaluesanddepreciationmethod are assessed annually and mightvary depending on a number of factors. In re-assessing asset lives, factors suchas technological innovation, product lifecycles and maintenance programme aretaken into account.
Impairment of property, plant and equipment
The Board tests for impairment wherethere is an indication that an assetmight be impaired. An assessment of whetherthereisanindicationof possibleimpairment is done at each reportingdate. Where the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipmentis greater than the estimated recoverableamount (or recoverable service amount),andan impairment loss is charged to theStatementof FinancialPerformance
Revaluation
TheLand&Buildingwillberevaluedafterevery five years and then disclosed at a fair revalued amount. Taking into account the fact that the Building is depreciated over50years,theBoardisof theopinionthatthe valuation interval period of five (5) years is appropriate. This revaluation will
be undertaken by professional valuers.
All other non-current assets will beaccountedforatactualacquisitioncosttothe Board, less depreciation, and will besubject to an annual fair value evaluation.
Shouldtherevaluationamountexceedthecarrying value, a Revaluation Surplus willbedisclosedintheStatementof FinancialPosition. Should the opposite occur, then a lossonrevaluationitemwillbedisclosedintheStatementof FinancialPerformanceasan expense.
Disposal of property, plant and equipment
The gain or loss on the disposal orretirement of an item of property, plantand equipment is determined as thedifferencebetweenthesalesproceedsandthe carrying values of the assets on thedate of disposal and is recognised in theStatement of Financial Performance.
Land

1.4 Intangible Assets
Anintangibleassetisrecognisedwhen:
• It is probable that the expected futureeconomic benefit or service potential that
is attributable to the asset will flow to the Board;and
• Thecostorfairvalueof theassetcanbemeasured reliably.
Intangible assets are carried at costless accumulated amortisation and anyimpairment losses. Software is amortised onastraight-linebasisoveritsanticipateduseful life. Generally, costs associated with development computer softwareprogrammesarerecognisedasanexpenseas incurred. However, costs that are clearly associated with an identifiable and unique product, which will be controlledby the Board and have a probable benefit exceeding the cost beyond one year, arerecognised as intangible assets.
Expenditurewhichenhancesandextendsthe benefits of computer software programmesbeyondtheoriginallifeof thesoftware is capitalised. Computer software developmentcostsrecognisedasassetsareamortised using the straight-line methodover their useful lives. Costs associated withthemaintenanceof existingcomputersoftware programmes are expensed asincurred.
The useful life of Intangible Assets is 2years.

Impairment
The Board tests for impairment wherethere is an indication that an IntangibleAsset might be impaired. An assessment of whetherthereisanindicationof possibleimpairment is done at each reportingdate. Where the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipmentis greater than the estimated recoverableamount (or recoverable service amount)an impairment loss is charged to theStatement of Financial Performance.
1.5 Non-current assets held for sale
Non-current assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount willbe recovered principally through a saletransactionratherthanthroughcontinuinguse. This condition is regarded as met onlywhenthesaleishighlyprobableandtheassetisavailableforimmediatesaleinits present condition. Management must be committed to the sale, which shouldbe expected to qualify for recognition asacompletedsalewithinoneyearfromthedate of classification.
Non-current assets held for sale aremeasured at the lower of its carryingamount and fair value less costs to sell.
Anon-currentassetisnotdepreciated(oramortised) while it is classified as held for sale.
1.6 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash includes cash on hand (includingpetty cash) and cash with banks. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquidinvestments;readilyconvertibleintoknownamounts of cash, held with registeredbankinginstitutions,andaresubjecttoaninsignificant risk of change in value.
For the purposes of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalentscomprise cash on hand and in the bank. The Board categorises cash and cashequivalents as financial assets; loans and receivables.
1.7 Provisions and contingencies
Provisionsarerecognisedwhen:
• the Board has a present obligation as aresultof apastevent;
• it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be requiredtosettletheobligation;and
• a reliable estimate can be made of theobligation.
Provisions are not recognised for futureoperating losses.
Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow willberequiredinsettlementisdeterminedbyconsideringtheclassof obligationsasa

Provisionsarereviewedateachreportingdate and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates. Provisions are measured at the presentvalueof theexpenditureexpectedto be incurred to settle the obligation. The increaseintheprovisionduetopassageof time is recognised as interest expense.
Contingentassetsandcontingentliabilitiesare not recognised.
1.8 Revenue from exchange transactions
Revenueisderivedfromavarietyof sourceswhich includes collection commission,application fees, administration fees,recoveries of investigation expenses andother services provided.
Revenueisrecognisedwhenitisprobablethat future economic benefits or service potential will flow to the Board and these benefits can be measured reliably.

When the outcome of a transaction involvingtherenderingof servicescanbeestimatedreliably,revenueassociatedwiththetransactionisrecognisedbyreferencetothestageof completionof thetransactionat the reporting date. The outcome of a transactioncanbeestimatedreliablywhenall the following conditions are satisfied:
• It is probable that the economic benefits or service potential associated with thetransaction will flow to the Board;
• Thecostsincurredforthetransactionandthecosts tocomplete the transactioncanbe measured reliably.
When services are performed by an indeterminate number of acts over aspecified time frame, revenue is recognised on a straight-line basis over the specified time frame unless there is evidence thatsomeothermethodbetterrepresentedthestage of completion. When a specific act is much more significant than any other acts, the recognition of revenue is postponeduntil the significant act is executed.
When the outcome of the transaction involvingtherenderingof servicecannotbeestimatedreliably,revenueisrecognisedonly to the extent of the expensesrecognised that are recoverable.
Income from collection commission

1.9 Revenue from non-exchange transactions
Non-exchange transactions are defined as transactionswheretheentityreceivesvaluefromanotherentitywithoutdirectlygivingapproximatelyequalvalueinexchangeandincludes licence fees, penalties collectedand sports betting levies. Revenue is the gross inflows of economic benefits or service potential during the reportingperiod, when those inflows results in an increaseinnetassets,otherthanincreasesrelating to contribution from owners.

1.10 Significant judgements and source of estimation uncertainty The preparation of these financial
statements in conformity with GRAPrequires the use of certain criticalaccounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgementin the process of applying the Board

Risks
In the course of the Board business operations it was exposed to interest rate, credit, liquidity and market risks. The Board developed a comprehensive risk management process to monitor and control these risks. The risk management process relating to each of these risks is discussed under the headings below.Credit Risk
Managementmanagesthecreditriskrelatingtoemployeeloansbydeductingthepaymentsduebytheemployeesmonthlyfromtheirsalariesandby keeping a register of the amounts due and owing by each employee. If the employees would like to take out an additional loan after payments havebeenmadeontheinitialloan,managementwillinspecttheregisterandlimitthetotalof theinitialloanplustheadditionalloantoR3,000,therefore limiting the credit risk per employee to R3,000. Credit risk is fairly low in respect of these parties as they are related to the Gauteng Gambling Board.
FinancialassetsthatpotentiallysubjecttheGautengGamblingBoardtocreditriskconsistprincipallyof cashandcashequivalents, loansandreceivables, and trade and other receivables.The Gauteng Gambling Board’s cash and cash equivalents are placed with high credit quality financial institutions.There has been no significant change during the financial year or since the end of the financial year, to the Gauteng Gambling Board’s exposure to credit risk, the approach of measurement, or the objectives, policies and processes for managing this risk.The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial statements represents the Gauteng Gambling Board’s maximum exposure to credit risk.Interest and Market Risk There is no significant interest rate or other market risk applicable to the financial liability as the amounts are interest free and the time value of money effect is not deemed to be significant in affecting their fair values.

Where the gross betting revenue is less than zero, i.e. the bookmaker has operated at a loss for the tax period, he will accumulate a tax credit which can be claimed against future sports betting tax liability. This credit may never be refunded in cash.
Market and Interest Risk
There is no significant interest rate or other market risk applicable to these financial assets as the amounts are interest free and the time value of money effect is not deemed to be significant in affecting their fair values.
The Board’s policy is to manage interest rate risk by maintaining an appropriate mix between fixed and floating interest rates so that fluctuations in variable rates do not have a material impact on profit / (loss). The interest rate risk for the Board is minimal.

24 NEW STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS
24.1 Standards and Interpretations issued, but not yet effective
GRAP 18: Segment reporting
Segments are identified by the way in which information is reported to management, both for purposes of assessing performance and making decisions about how future resources will be allocated to the various activities undertaken by the Board. The major classifications of activities in budget documentation will usually reflect the segments for which an entity reports information to management.
Segment information is either presented based on services or geographical segments. Service segments relates to a distinguishable component of an entity that provides specific outputs or achieves particular operating objectives that are in line with the Board overall mission. Geographical segments relate to specific outputs generated, or particular objectives achieved, by an entity within a particular region.
The effective date of the standard is unknown. It is unlikely that the standard will have a material impact on the Board annual financial statements when it becomes effective.
GRAP 21: Impairment of Non-cash-generating Assets
Cash-generating assets are assets held in order to generate a commercial return. An Asset generates a commercial return when it is deployed in a manner consistent with that adopted by a profit-oriented entity. Non-cash-generating assets are assets other than cash-generating assets. A non-cash-generating asset is impaired when the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable service amount. In assessing whether thereisanyindicationthatanassetmaybeimpaired,anentityshallconsiderExternalsourcesandInternalsourcesof informationaboutthe assets. If indications are present that an asset may be impaired, an entity is required to make a formal estimate of recoverable service amount.

The effective date of the standard is for years beginning on or after 1 April 2012. It is unlikely that the standard will have a material impact on the Board annual financial statements.
GRAP 23: Revenue from Non-Exchange Transaction (Taxes and Transfers)
Revenuefromnon-exchangetransactionsariseswhenanentityreceivesvaluefromanotherentitywithoutdirectlygivingapproximatelyequalvalue in exchange. An asset acquired through a non-exchange transaction shall initially be measured at its fair value as at the date of acquisition. This revenue will be measured at the amount of increase in net assets recognised by the Board. An inflow of resources from a non-exchange transaction recognised as an asset shall be recognised as revenue, except to the extent that a liability is recognised for the same inflow. As an entity satisfies a present obligation recognised as a liability in respect of an inflow of resources fromanon-exchangetransactionrecognisedasanasset,itwillreducethecarryingamountof theliabilityrecognisedasanamountequaltothat reduction.
The effective date of the standard is for years beginning on or after 1 April 2012. The Board has decided to early adopt the standard for the years beginning 1 April 2010.
GRAP 24: Presentation of Budget Information in Financial Statements
Subject to the requirements of Paragraph.19, an entity shall present a comparison of the budget amounts for which it is held publicly accountable and actual amounts, either as a separate additional financial statements, or as additional budget columns in the financial statements presented in accordance with the Standards of GRAP.
The effective date of the standard is for years beginning on or after 1 April 2012. It is unlikely that the standard will have a material impact on the Board annual financial statements.
GRAP 26: Impairment of Cash-generating Assets
Cash-generating assets are assets held in order to generate a commercial return. A cash-generating asset is impaired when its carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. In assessing whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired, an entity shall consider both External and Internal sources of information. If indications are present that an asset may be impaired, an entity is required to make a formal estimate of recoverable service amount.

GRAP 103: Heritage Assets
Heritage assets are assets which have a cultural, environmental, historical, natural, scientific, technological or artistic significance, and are held indefinitely for the benefit of present and future generations.
Certain heritage assets are described as inalienable items, and are thus assets which are retained indefinitely and cannot be disposed of without consent, as required by law or otherwise.

The trial was held on 26 July 2010 and a Judgement was granted in favour of the Gauteng Gambling Board and the Plaintiff appealed. The appeal will be head by the SCA on 23 August 2011.
