(a) In the financial year 2021/22, there are no new irregular expenditure cases for the two quarters reported.
There are 8 Irregular expenditure and 25 Fruitless and Wasteful expenditure cases registered from previous financial years.
(b) A total of 8 irregular expenditure cases are under investigations and 25 Fruitless and wasteful expenditure cases are pending investigation.
(c) None has been finalised to-date, but cases are reported to our Audit and Risk Committee on a quarterly basis to ensure regular oversight on irregular, fruitless and wasteful expenditure cases.
Delays noted in finalizing cases are mostly due to Covid-19 and the move of the Department of Health offices from the Civitas building to Dr. AB Xuma building.
END.
