  10. Mayibuye Centre Reasons for underspending 2003/2004: (R6,493,000) The project ran into unexpected geological problems (site work tender). The top layer of soil had to be removed and replaced by a more geologically stable substance. This resulted in the project being delayed by some time. An amount of R3,734,000 was approved as a rollover to 2004/2005. R2,759,000 was surrendered to the Provincial Treasury. 2004/2005: (R3,733,000) There were delays in the awarding of the construction tender. The contract to construct the facility was awarded to Kopanya Joint Venture in September 2004. Problems were then experienced in securing guarantees for the contract. These were eventually secured and construction commenced in the last quarter of 2004/2005. Rollover of the unspent amount of R3,733,000 to 2005/2006 was requested and approved. An amount of R6,200,000 was suspended from the Mayibuye Centre due to the implementation of Provincial cost containment measures. As the project is a contractual obligation the surrendered and suspended amounts would need to be factored in at the end of the project.

  22. Department of Sport, Arts and CultureNorthern Cape 2006/2007 First Quarter Reasons for underspending & under delivery (Siyadlala MPP) • Delays in the appointment of coordinators hampered service delivery and affected the cash flow and attainment of the Key Performance Indicators as reflected in the Provincial business plan. • Delays with the finalisation of the employment contract for coordinators delayed the appointment process of coordinators. Contracts finalised end of June 2006. • The cost of procuring sport equipment necessitates that tender procedures in line with Supply Chain Management Framework have to be followed.

  23. School Sport MMP Conditional Grant Key Performance Indicators First Quarter 2006/2007 • Schools involved were extended from 2 districts to 4 districts. • The late appointment of sport assistants was the reason for not achieving the target of registered learners involved in the programme. • School Sport MPP business plan and blueprint only finalised June 2006.

  26. Department of Sport, Arts and CultureNorthern Cape Challenges • Managers for both Siyadla MPP and School Sport MPP are not on the same level in all provinces. • Lack of permanent staff dealing with MPP affects service delivery and spending which contributed to the underspending in the first quarter • Lack of facilities in some municipalities is a major challenge. • Lack of office space for hub coordinators affects the monitoring and proper administration of the programme. • Lack of agreements with some municipalities delay the implementation of the programme. • Lack of exit strategy and sustainability plan for coordinators remains a serious challenge. • No national uniform marketing plan in place for the programme. • Integration with other existing youth programmes in the Province is a challenge. • Additional funding for school sport especially in relation to the cross boundary issues (50,877 learners and 184 schools were integrated into the Northern Cape from North-West Province).

  27. Department of Sport, Arts and CultureNorthern Cape Recommendations • National should meet with Provinces to discuss capacity and organisational structure. • Sport and Recreation South Africa to drive advocacy programme to promote the programme (TIC, MINMEC). • Permission be granted to provinces to fund permanent posts from the conditional grant (SRSA and National Treasury to include this in the grant framework). • SRSA consult with SALGA in relation to signing of cooperation agreements with municipalities and give logistical support to the programme. • Department of Education to develop a campaign mobilising SGB’s to support the School Sport MPP (Schools to provide logistical support to all contracted coordinators such as office space, telephone, fax, copiers, access to schools, etc.
