PROGRAMME 1: ADMINISTRATION
Comment:
1.1 Reason for deviation: The Moderation Panel for Levels 5 – 8 commenced with the moderations, however, a need was identified to engage the Chairpersons of the Moderation Panels for Levels 9 – 12 and SMS members to finalise a criteria list. This did not materialize due to the unavailability of the Moderation Panel Chairpersons and some of the Moderation Panel members who had other commitments.
1.1 Corrective Action: The Moderation Panel for Levels 5-8 will continue and finalise the outstanding assessments for 2016/ 2017 during July The other Moderation will also be engaged to provide dates to finalise their respective moderations.
1.2 Reason for deviation: Nine Interns were trained and 3 additional officials were trained on the Human Resource Budget Plan during June 2017 (Mr G Pretorius, Mr L Motsoai and Mr R Molopyane). SRSA is still awaiting the attendance list from National Treasury. Ms S Khan was trained in the Africa Union Capacity Building workshop in Sport Administration in Lusaka, Zambia. Total trained for the quarter is 13.
1.2 Corrective Action: A free-of-charge online course on Performance Management (through the National School of Governance (NSG)) will be introduced to all staff and will be rolled out during August 2017.

6. PROGRAMME 2: ACTIVE NATION
There were 5 targets to be achieved by the programme during the quarter under review and they were achieved. There was also an achievement on additional indicators (6) that did not have targets in quarter 1.
The deviation is caused by Outreaches; School Sport championship; and Move for Health. The deviation is 6 and not 3 because the hosting of an event is accompanied by an indicator on participants at that event.

Comment:
4.7 Delays w.r.t. transformation barometer agreements mainly came about as a result of -
NF's not responding timeously, raising queries beyond the deadlines afresh, not complying and adhering properly with the tasks they were supposed to do or barometers they needed to populate, NF's misconstruing or misinterpreting what they are supposed to do, requesting further extensions (even extensions on extensions), NF's that needed to convene AGM to obtain approvals for entering into these agreements, etc.

Q1 Preliminary Overall Achievement: 2017/18
There were 19 targets to be achieved by the Department during the quarter under review.
In total, 16 targets were achieved and 3 not achieved. This amounts to 84% achievement.
However, in addition to the 16 that were achieved, there are 6 indicators that also recorded an achievement even though they had no targets in quarter 1. As a result, the report is overall, on 26 indicators, of which 23 were achieved (88%). Report on the Actual performance for q1, may differ slightly due to evidence that is inadequate.
