KZN Premier Sihle Zikalala said five municipalities in the province were ready to roll out the Administration Adjudication of Road Traffic Offences.
Transport Minister Fikile Mbalula said the roll-out would be done in a phased approach. There would be four phases to the roll-out.will run until September 30, 2021, during which seven Aarto service outlets will be established nationally, the eNATIS will be enabled to collect Aarto payments, and a communications campaign will be launched to educate motorists about Aarto.
The premier said the council welcomed the good intentions of Aarto, which include improving driver behaviour, encouraging motorists to be law-abiding citizens and reducing road accidents. Zikalala said the executive council raised concern over the recommendation that Aarto stationery may only be sourced from the Government Printing Works at a fee.
According to the provincial exco, this move will undermine the possible job spin-offs which may accrue to the province if the supplies were sourced in KwaZulu-Natal. The executive council delegated the provincial Department of Transport to engage the national department with the aim of increasing the appetite for participation and to educate people thoroughly about the Aarto system.
