Not really my work, I have to thank my friend Feeeeeeeeeeee for pursuing this. I wrote the last blog post on the subject because a useless verification agency (that I will never use again) refused to recognise that the company was a specialised NPC and that the ICT code hasn't got it's stuff together to do something about these incongruities.
As it turns out the ICT Code Council was aware of this. Feeeeeeeeeeee pursued them doggedly and they sent her this attachment, which has this to say
3.1 CLAUSE 8.2. B-BBEE RECOGNITION LEVELS FOR A QUALIFYING SMALL ENTERPRISE (QSE), SPECIALISED QUALIFYING SMALL ENTERPRISE AND SPECIALISED GENERIC ENTITY APPLIES TO THE AMENDED B-BBEE ICT SECTOR CODE SERIES AICT000 STATEMENT AICT000 / AICT600 STATEMENT AICT600, AS IS INDICATED IN THE TABLE BELOW:
The table in question shows the levels contained in the dti's generic codes. That should put this to bed - not that I expect the verification agency in question to note this.
Just for the record the verification agency I'm referring to is not Honeycomb - I used them once and found them remarkably unprofessional and dubiously respectful of the referral. I won't use them ever again and you would do well not to as well.
