Payments for Capital Assets: expenditure was R28.3 million, or 84.4% of the available budget of R33.5 million. Planned expenditure was R5.4 million so the department is ahead by R22.9 million. This is primarily within Programme 1: Administration due to the procurement of vehicles for Labour Inspectors which was made earlier than expected. Programme 1: expenditure was R145.2 million, or 19.8% of the available budget of R732.6 million. Planned expenditure was R173 million so the department is behind by R27.7 million. This is primarily due to major payments towards leases of office buildings that were not made as invoices were not received from National Department of Public Works (NDPW), and these issues have persisted for three months so far.
