Over the MTEF period, expenditure was projected to decrease at an average annual rate of 10 per cent, to reach R 915.5 million. In the previous year the very same total expenditure was projected to decrease at an annual rate of 35 per cent to R 793.7 million in 2012/13 as the upgrading and construction of stadiums would have been completed in 2010. In the current year it had been an offset by additional allocations to the mass sport and recreation participation conditional grant, which was expected to increase from R 452 million in 2011/12 to R500.7 million in 2013/14; and to sport federations which were expected to increase expenditure in the Sport Support Services programme by R 104 million, including savings generated.
