Table 15 and 16 above provide the summary of payments and estimates: Provincial Planning,
Performance Monitoring and Evaluation per sub-programme and economic classification. Expenditure
increases from R112.466 million in 2019/20 to a revised estimate of R145.477 million in 2022/23 mainly

due to the Isiqalo Youth Fund that was a once-off funding as well as Improvement in Conditions of Service
(ICS) adjustment. In 2023/24, the budget increases to R155.477 million mainly due to additional funding

received as a result of new data updates in the Provincial Equitable Share formula as well as funding
received for the wage agreement.

Compensation of employees increased from R50.410 million in 2019/20 to a revised estimate of
R56.329 million in 2022/23, due to Improvement in Conditions of Service adjustments. In 2023/24, the

budget increased to R64.165 million due to wage agreement as well as provision made for the new posts
that are in the new organogram for the strengthening of Monitoring Evaluation function.

Goods and Services increased from R12.011 million in 2019/20 to an estimate of R14.024 million in

2022/23 financial year due to inflationary adjustments. In 2023/24, the budget decreases by 15.9 per cent
to R11.792 million due to internal reprioritisation to fund key departmental priorities.

Transfers and Subsidies increased from R50.045 million in 2019/20 to an estimate of R74.929 million in

2022/23 due to funding received for the Establishment of Khawuleza PMO as well as enhancement of the
provincial research capability. In 2023/24 the budget increases by 6.1 per cent to R79.520 million due the
inflationary adjustments.

Payments for Capital Assets decreased from R1.219 million in 2020/21 to an estimate of R195 thousand
