1 March 2020
The Democratic Alliance (DA) in Gauteng is deeply concerned that the Gauteng Department of Social Development constantly underspends on its budget.
This was revealed in the department’s third quarterly report for the 2019/20 financial year.
According to the report, the department has underspent by R552,8 million.
The department has underspent across all its programmes, yet they are unable to provide funding to NGOs who are in desperate need of funds.
