4.2. Administration The main budget for the Administration programme in the 2010/11 financial year was R239.0 million but was adjusted downwards by R15.3 million to R232.9 million. The Department spent R227.5 million or 97.7 of the programme budget by the end of the fourth quarter. This translates to an under expenditure of R5.3 million or 2.3 per cent. The National Treasury reported that the under spending related to delays in delivery, late receipt of invoices and consequent delay in processing of payments in the procurement of goods and services. In order to address this challenge, the Department reported to Parliament that it is in the process of reviewing its supply chain processes with a view of centralisation of invoices. In the 2011/12 financial year the programme's main appropriation was R247.9 million and R62.5 million or 25.2 per cent was spent by the end of the first quarter. The actual spending on the Administration programme was in line with the projected expenditure for the first quarter.
