23. 2014 Medium Term Spending Pressures
Security of infrastructure, operations and personnel - Shortage on Security Guard Services and security infrastructure investment of around R400,0 million per annum to cover the new courts and the current level of service.
Average annual spent of R428 million against available budget of R300million
Municipal charges - The slow growth of funds for lease of buildings and municipal accounts including charges for electricity, water sanitation and rates and taxes-these accounts escalate annually with between 8% and 6% on average while the baseline increase with between 4% and 6
Newly commissioned and completed infrastructure projects - Start-up costs for the infrastructure that will be finished in the MTEF period the estimated amount required is R255 million. Concurrently capacity needs to be expanded in the NPA and Legal Aid SA

24. 2014 Medium Term Spending Pressures
Establishment of a new department ( OCJ) - an amount of R191.0 million over the MTEF period will be needed.
Transformation of State Legal Services estimated amount required is R100 million.
The cost of proclaimed Commissions of Enquiry – estimated to be around R152 million for the 2013/14 financial year
Personnel cost - The higher than anticipated salary increase as well as the directives from the department of public and State Administration on the upgrading of clerical posts has had a detrimental effect on the Departmental compensation of employee budget and R150 million is required to cover the carry-through cost.

25. 2014 Medium Term Spending Pressures: NPA
National Prosecuting Authority require R1.1 billion over the MTEF period for increasing capacity of:
SOCA- Increase capacity within 56 addition sexual offences courts
NPA- Increase capacity within the courts
NPA- Increasing Capacity-Appointment of Aspirant Prosecutors
AFU- Increasing capacity
Increasing SCCU accessibility
OWP- Increase capacity and the effect thereof on Goods and Services

26. 2014 Medium Term Spending Pressures: Legal Aid
Office lease - Legal Aid SA is currently renting more than 100 offices across the country. The renewal of these office rental agreements strains our budget further in that landlords are willing to renew them at higher rates above the macro (6%).
Other contractual obligations escalations also bring some challenges in that the macro increase is often less than the contractual escalations.
Capital expenditure also brings challenges in that as the entity grows and so is the need to increases capital assets, however this is not the case due to budgetary constraints. Therefore to accommodate this, the useful life of some assets has been extended and replaced as and when funds become available.
Cost of living increases above the inflation rates. This is a challenge as a bigger part of our budget (74%) is consumed by compensation of employees.
