SUMMARY OF IPID’S PERFORMANCE : 2016/
CONCLUSION

3. OVERVIEW
The purpose of this briefing is to present IPID’s progress with regards to implementation of the PCP BRRR recommendations including the AGSA Action Plans and consolidated performance for the period 01 April to 31 December 2016
Report on consolidated performance, particularly in the third quarter, is greatly affected by budgetary constraints facing the department due to the following reasons, among other things:
Budget cuts and ceilings placed by National Treasury on compensation of employees.
Expenditure incurred by the department as a result of, among other things, restructuring/ transfers that took place.
Consequently, some of the activities in Investigations and Stakeholder Management have been deferred to the next financial year.

RESPONSIBLE PROGRAMME
TIME FRAME
1. Special funding be allocated and ring-fenced in the budget of the Directorate for the Farlam Commission Investigations.
The IPID was unsuccessful in obtaining funding to fund the implementation of the Farlam Commissions recommendations. The investigation team is incurring expenditure that was not budgeted for in the current budget allocation, which has resulted in spending pressure being experienced in goods and services. At this stage the investigation cannot be completed without IPID being able to source additional funds. An urgent request for intervention has been sent to National Treasury for assistance in this regard

To date a total of 96 stakeholder engagement have been held (Q1= 31, Q2=47, Q3= 18)

32. CONCLUSION
The budget constraints will have adverse impact on the achievement of targets on finalisation of cases in Programme 2 and Programme 4 targets. As a result, four (4) case classifications were prioritised for investigation; which are death in police custody, death as a result of police action, rape by police officer, rape while in custody and systematic Corruption. Furthermore, some of the engagements under Programme 4 were put on hold until end of the financial year.
The trend of extensive budget cuts experienced by the IPID occurs in the context of the IPID consistently meeting its quarterly and annual spending targets.
2014/15: The IPID spent 99% of its budget allocation with R166 of Accruals;
2015/16: The IPID spent 99% of its budget allocation with R288 of Accruals
2016/17: As at 31 January 2016, the IPID spent 87.1% of its reduced budget allocation with outstanding invoices (commitments) of R8.4 million excluding the remaining period of the current financial year.
Therefore the financial constraints will remain and continue to hamper the Directorate` ability to implement the IPID Act, which was promulgated in 2012/13.
