Major Variance Analysis

• Explanation of major variances
• Eastern Cape
• An amount of R702 000 was budgeted for
  coordinators who were not appointed. These funds
  will be now be used for strengthening HCBC. About
  R2, 012 997 will be transferred to 7
  organisations and province is now ready to effect
  payments. The balance of about R95 000 is for
  contract personnel whose appointments were
  delayed. These funds will be used for training of
  community liaison officers.
• Gauteng
• Overspending is mainly due to erroneous
  allocation of provincial normal HIV Aids
  expenditure against the conditional grant. The
  matter is being corrected through journal entries
  and the projected deficit will be addressed.

30
Major Variance Analysis

• North West
• The province indicated that remaining funds are
  committed for transfer to NGOs/CBOs. Due to their
  financial system (Walker) allowing them to pay 30
  days in arrear after cash flow is made available,
  these funds will only be transferred during
  February and March 2005.

Food Emergency Relief

• Achievements
• The distribution of food parcels in 2003/04 was
  largely successful although there were numerous
  challenges
• Increase government services to the poorest of
  the poor
• Programme responds to immediate household needs
• Communication and stakeholder mobilization
• Strengthen volunteer movement
• Capturing of beneficiaries that require access
  to social grants
• Attempts to co-ordinate and integrate fragmented
  social cluster poverty relief programme
• Mobilise and empower communities about
  sustainability programmes/projects.

49
Food Emergency Relief

• Challenges
• 2003/04
• Lack of commitment and insufficient joint
  planning by other members of the stakeholder
  forum / government departments
• The allocated 3 of the total budget for
  administration purposes is inadequate
• Lack of transport and limited human resources
• Due to the nature of this programme, it is
  susceptible to possible abuse and manipulation
  and very difficult to control
• Limited food supply compared to the number of
  poor households in need causes serious tensions
  amongst communities

50
Food Emergency Relief

• Challenges (continued)
• 2004/05
• Lack of sustainability element of the programme
  itself is problematic
• The current delivery model is a short-term relief
  measure for poor with no medium to long-term
  focus. It was initially conceived as an emergency
  relief.
• The current delivery model, which is based on
  competitive bidding process is problematic

51
Food Emergency Relief

• Actions to address challenges
• A comprehensive policy on social relief of
  distress is being developed
• A new service delivery model has been conceived
  focusing on integrated social development
  services. Main outputs are
• Integrated welfare services delivered through
  NGOs, NPOs CBOs
• Short-term relief according to needs identified
  by provinces, e.g. drop-in centres, soup kitchens
  etc
• A new conditional grant that is less restrictive
  to provinces has been proposed
