Section 19(6) of the DORA allows us, in the case of disasters, to spend money outside the grant conditions and through a joint request with the NDMC. According to the National Treasury as soon as the Appropriation Bill and DORA Bill is enacted, the DORA can then be amended to make additional provisions in the Provincial Road Maintenance Grant that will be ring fenced for rebuilding of all damaged roads due to the floods.
As soon as the above processes are completed, the approved funds will be transferred.
