Reasons for underspending Funds provided for the Special Investigation Unit (SIU) have not been fully utilized. –Under spending is due to the SIU not invoicing the Department or not providing the department with supporting documentation on work performed and invoiced. –The Department held various meetings but could not resolve the matter. Funds provided for the leasing of additional office accommodation have not been fully utilised. –The unspent portion of the Property Management portfolio is in respect of leasing of both 240 and 260 Justice Mahomed Street buildings. –The Department of Public Works (DPW) entered into a seven year lease agreement on behalf of the Department for these buildings, effective from 01 January 2011 to 31 December –A dispute arose between the DPW and the landlord that led to a delay in planned building refurbishment and tenant installation as well as the subsequent occupation of the additional office accommodation. i.e. (260 Justice Mohamed Street building) Delay in the implementation of the National Upgrading Support Programme (NUSP) which takes up 30% of the Branch’s budget has contributed to the current low spending rate 42
REASONS FOR UNDER SPENDING CONT. –Other major contributing factor applicable throughout the Department is under spending on compensation of employees which amounted to R38.4 million and can be attributed to the following: Delays experienced in qualification verification by the South African Qualifications Authority (SAQA) for candidates who have been recommended. A meeting was arranged between the Department and SAQA in the 3rd Quarter and improvement has been seen. Posts that had to be re -advertised due to the fact that no suitable candidates could be found.
