Government is committed to expanding employment opportunities through active labour market policies and investments in a variety of public works and special employment programmes. Additional funding will be provided in the medium term to the Department of Labour's public employment services. The Department of Public Works will spend over R4 billion in incentive grants to expanded public works projects implemented in the provincial and local government sphere. The 2013/14 MTEF provides for R7.6 billion for the Community Works Programme (CWP) and R8.5 billion for environmental programmes. The budget will include funding for non-governmental organisations (NGOs) that participate in non-state sector employment programmes. While there has been slow progress in establishing administrative capacity for the Employment Creation Facilitation Fund (Jobs Fund), an amount of R9 billion is expected to be committed to the fund over a five year period.
