  5. Conditional Grants - 2001/02 to 2004/05 Limpopo - Health - April 2006

  6. Conditional Grants • Past Allocations • The Infrastructure Grant (R92.5m) is a Provincial Treasury grant. • The conditional grants has shown a steady increase over the past four years to grow by 68% or R242.7 million between 2001/02 and 2004/05, excluding the grant for Primary Schools Nutrition Programme that has been transferred to Education as from April 2004 onwards. • The allocation again showed a sharp increase from the R407.45 million in 2005/06 to R645.9 million for the financial year under review. • This is mainly due to the increase for HIV & AIDS (R48m), Forensic Pathology (R6.9m) as well as Hospital Revitalization (R106m) with all other grants also growing . • A roll over of R34.345 million was also received in the current year to make a total of R 645 million available after surrendering R 10 million back to Treasury on the Hospital Revitalisation Grant Limpopo - Health - April 2006

  7. Conditional Grants • Transfers • A full transfer was received for the budgeted amount available for the period 2001/03 to 2003/04. • In the 2004/05 year the department did not receive R15.372 million of the R407.4 million allocated by receiving only R392.7 million or 96.2% from National Health via the Provincial Treasury. • The transfers were stopped when expenditure for the third quarter was not according to the expected level. • This resulted in the department surrendering an amount of R 15.372 million less than the actual under expenditure at year end, as these funds were not received and could thus not be paid back. • The Provincial Treasury did roll over the funds to 2005/06 Limpopo - Health - April 2006
