GDE failed to spend almost R1 billion
26 September 2019
The Democratic Alliance (DA) in Gauteng is concerned that the Gauteng Department of Education has failed to spend almost R1 billion in the 2018/19 financial year.
This was revealed in the department’s annual report for the 2018/19 financial year.
It is unacceptable that with the enormous challenges facing our schools, especially infrastructure challenges, the department is failing to spend its allocated budget.
School infrastructure has been deteriorating, aging and classrooms are overcrowded.
