The Committee undertook a follow-up oversight to the Eastern Cape Province on 21 June 2012 at the Transet, Mthatha where it met with national and provincial departmental officials. The Committee received a briefing on the progress regarding the 49 schools that were to be built under the ASIDI programme in the Eastern Cape. Concerns were expressed that contractors and material suppliers in the Eastern Cape were not benefiting sufficiently from the ASIDI programme. Reference was made to the ASIDI plan for the 2012/13 financial year which included 100 inappropriate schools, 692 electrifications, 453 sanitation, 928 water and 50 specialist class room projects. Coega Development Corporation, Independent Development Trust, and the Eastern Cape Department of Public Works have been appointed for the implementation of 50 schools in the Eastern Cape during 2012/13.
