slide42. 42 The actual total expenditure for the 1st quarter of 2021/22 financial year amounts to R1.682 billion compared to the cash drawings of R1.991 billion representing a variance of 16% lower than what had been projected. The variances are explained as follows
Â
Programme 1 spent R268.3 million of the projected expenditure of R407.7 million. The low spending is mainly attributable to the delay in the implementation of property management strategy due to delays experienced with the bid evaluation committees , delay in the delivery of ICT equipment as well as delay in the processing of ICT services (bandwidth) invoices in the 1st quarter that could not be processed. The non processing of ICT services (bandwidth) invoices was due to challenges with the creation of order number on Central Supplier Database due to expired tax certificate of the company.
Programme 2 spent R806.5 million of the projected expenditure of R887.1 million. The low spending is mainly attributable to expenditure for 17 missions accounts which did not close the accounts on time as a result the expenditure has not been recorded on Basic Accounting System for reporting as at 30 June 2021, lower exchange rate experienced in the first quarter as well as less travel due to the lockdown restrictions QUARTER 1 DEPARTMENTAL FINANCIAL REPORT<br>
