The Portfolio Committee noted that the Department projected a total expenditure of 95 per cent. It further noted that the underspending is mostly due to the slow expenditure of the Green Fund, where, whilst all funds have been committed to projects that have been approved by the Green Fund Mancom, disbursements have been slow during the initial months of the year and only approximately R90 Million of the allocated R300 Million in the financial year will be utilised. This slow disbursement was mostly due to the establishment of the fund and finalisation of all institutional and governance instruments for responsible disbursements. This under- expenditure will be declared to Treasury and a rollover requested in terms of the prescribed Treasury procedures.
