ASIDI
The 2012-13 eradication of inappropriate schools in the Eastern Cape were completed by due date, and the 2012-13 provision of basic services in the Eastern Cape contracts were not completed by the due date.
The basic services projects were not completed by due date due to contractor incompetency, delays experienced with submission of ground water tests and geotechnical tests reports from laboratories and poor contract management.
The 2012-13 Free State contracts were not completed by the due date. So far, one new school has been completed.
The projects were not completed by due date due to contractor incompetency and poor contract management.
The IDT will not be able to complete the Eastern Cape contracts awarded in 2013-14 by due date.
The projects are already behind schedule.
(b) As per the contracts entered into between the DBE and IDT, various sanctions can be imposed where there is non-performance. In the case of the Free State contract, IDT was issued with notices of non-performance and subsequently the scope of work awarded to the IDT in the Free State was reduced by 4 schools out of the 10 allocated to them. The IDT has also been issued with notices of default on the 2013-14 Eastern Cape contracts.
